Dear ADCD,

I didn't participate in the show, so maybe it's not my place to comment, but I was checking out the awards booklet and noticed that 9 out of your 10 judges are dudes. What's up with that?

This was my first year attending the show. A lot of really nice work. Clearly Cactus, Karsh and Sukle are the top creative shops in Denver right now. Congrats to you all for the great work. My "Best of Show" was Man Therapy. Crazy fun idea. Amazing execution. You should enjoy winning your share of international prizes. Congrats.
