Hey guys. Does anybody know how long the artists from t11 work in order to create and perfect their tricks? Also, where do you guys get your inspiration from?

Yeah, as filth said they work on their material for years until it comes to perfection.
As for inspiration, I never really have found that for tricks...I end up figuring them out on accident. I'll play around with cards, do something then gasp as I did something wrong that turned out to do something else that was good. Through this I've created an inversion effect, and a simple revelation (not the bottom card one).
One time...today I had created a move thanks to Brian Tudor whilst practicing the Rev. Five, not exactly inpspiration but a mistake led by someone else's work (this also happened with a sandwich routine I made though I wasn't practicing a trick to get it, it just resembled one).
Even though this, some people think of what they want to do and try to do it.
Whether its on accident or through commitment, its a trial and error process until it ends and you have a refined effect.

Joel worked on Believe for a long, long time, and he told me that the version sold on the site was NOT the version he originally wanted to sell... he wanted people to discover it on their own, and that the purpose of Believe wasn't really to release a great trick (which he did, anyway), but to give people a springboard to create their own variations of the effect and make it suited to themselves. I'd like to see the original version!
