- Part Deux - The club's computer-based membership has grown to over 770 members (with over 110 active) worldwide, and more and more members are demonstrating some computer proficiency. Because most of us use a computer to access the Internet and most of those computer's operating systems have provisions for some kind of desktop background, this contest to develop numismatic-related desktop artwork should be doable by many members. After the Contest, winning entries will be available on the WINS web site for public download. DESIGN CRITERIA AND CONTEST RULES 1.
