A contest for software that you have to use to make the product doesn’t make sense, I don’t have the adobe suite, so I can’t enter this contest. I have a great idea, and an animation package, but that’s it.

I think it’s hard for people who are honest and only use software that they purchase to enter these types of contests if the prize is exactly what they lack to enter in the first place.
