It'd be more interesting if teams posted stuff they were trying during the design phase; you'd get much better feedback and optimize the design faster. I've seen a few cases where designs we were working on were posted on CD and people jumped on them to find potential issues; that helped us build a better robot.

I really can't see any negatives to posting design concepts at this point in the season. Think on this: If the Cheesy Poofs posted a complete render of their robot design right now, would you honestly scrap your current design after 5 weeks of work and start over with this new info?
