" One person can submit a skin that was posted on videolan website in the last 3 month "

means you can, if you follow the specifications (I haven't checked)

so is more time needed for 1.0, or had there been just a few skins submitted till now?

I know that setting limits for competitions are always hard. We at Skin Consortium had already hosted 6 comps, and decided for each on a new duration (now we seem to be stuck w/ 4-5 week competitions)

Hey, you know, the deadline will be extended, as VLC 1.0.0 is delayed.

Sooo,
what happened to the skin contest? No extension, no word on the voting,
and even worse, no confirmation if the submitted skins were received
successfully, what happened?! :-|
I am a bit worried if my submisson worked (orangeade skin)!?

I was a bit too busy with the release.
Voting will take place soon.
And yes, I have got your skin, I think.

But, I haven't received a lot of those, which worries me.
