  Thanks to you too ... i know NOT Only design is enough to WIN a contest in which the result just initiates the project actually and not ends with contest completion, and the missing part is under construction, in my case. Lot many days to come, it is only around 50 days in freelancer. I will construct the missing PART soon, i hope the every day winning contests can solve the missing part as the profile reviews and experience grows. See u on your next contest; i am following you. :)
  
  Thanks for your last contest's feedback !
