We have had lots of requests over the past few weeks to change the Rapidshare limits to ones based on bandwidth, instead of number of links.

We listened to you, and Rapidshare limits are now bandwidth based. Instead of 40 links per day, you can now download 5GB per day.

You can generate as many links as you want. However, your quota will only be counted IF you actually START downloading the generated link.

This should make the download experience for everyone a lot more easier/better.

If you cannot see the new change in your ‘Show My Limits’ page, please log out of your account and log back in to update the information displayed there.

I’m not quite sure how many of you have actually been waiting for this, but for those who really have been waiting for it… here it is!

What Is It?
A site design/theme competition. If you’re talented with Photoshop or any other design software and you think you have the time and the skills to compete, go on and make a design for our network.

Where will the design be used?
We’ll be having 3 winners. If you’re one of those 3, we’ll use your design to replace the current design @ http://premium.rpnet.biz . We figured we could use a re-design for that domain, as it is quite cluttered as of now. And we were hoping to get a better one made. Then we decided – what better way than to do a competition and reward the winners? Of course… that’s what it came to.

What sort of design are we looking for?
While I’d love to say we’ll welcome any design, I need to lay out just the bare minimum specifications. Your design should not be too cluttered. If you’re going to make a design, do remember to include a logo too, please. And we’ll prefer a light color/themed design as opposed to a darker one. Light colored designs are easier on the eyes – and that contributes to good design ethics

Where should you submit your designs?
Please remember to submit ALL your design/work to our email specified below. Make sure you include a screenshot of the design, the PSD file, and all other supporting files (font files, if they’re free, etc). Compress all the files in a zip file, and email it to us at (support@rpnet.biz). Make sure your submission email’s subject includes “[RP Design Contest]” somewhere in it.

What’s the deadline for the design submission?
1 month from the date of this blog post. That basically means, the last date to send in your submission is 30th May, 2010.

When will the results be announced?
All submissions will be evaluated and the winners will be announced and contacted by 10th June, 2010.

Right then.. folks.. this post marks the beginning of the contest. Go on and start submitting!

Cheers,
Hamza
