I don't have an iPhone/iPod/iPad, can I still take part?
Yes, absolutely! The contest is all about having fun. Although we think our app makes papercraft so much easier and consistent, you can of course use your own papercraft models. Also, we're currently developing the Android version of Papercraft Studio. If you're interested in hearing more, sign-up to be notified when it's ready here.

I have seen how the app works, and as an avid papercrafter I am impressed. I would use it if I had a compatible device. But, I don't.
However, if they did a program for windows I'd gladly buy it for as much as twice the current app price.
How can i know if my country allows such contests? I'd really like to enter but I'm not sure if i can.
I noticed that when this contest started, the price for papercraft studio went from $2.99, to $3.99
Thats why im using ones from the internet.
