SnackTools, a suite of rich internet applications for creating web content, has a Facebook quiz that tests your knowledge of Photoshop. By taking the quiz, you could be awarded with licenses for up to 10 months depending on how well you score!

How It Works

SnackTools is giving away 10,000 BannerSnack licenses. You can win licenses for up to 10 months depending on how well you score on the "Are you a true Photoshoper?" quiz.

The awards are given out on a first come, first serve basis, so hurry!

For example, if you get 6 answers right, you’ll receive 6 months of BannerSnack. The biggest prize, the 10-month license, is worth $190. That translates to a lot of banners to make for you and your clients!
