Due to popular demand, we are having a shirt design contest for the 2010 FinalGear Shirts.
Different rules this time, so please read them carefully before designing!
Each color you put into the design must be on a separate layer. Each layer can be a maximum of 13" by 13", and the overall design can be no larger than 20" tall x 15" wide. The maximum layer limitation is due to the size of the screens, and the maximum design size is because it has to fit the smallest shirt printed (Small). The design only needs to be on one-side of the shirt, as does not have to incorporate the FinalGear logo. The design can be on the front or front+back of the shirt, but not the sleeves.
All prior shirts were Gildan Ultra Cotton (100% Cotton, 6.1oz Color Guide). Most people approved of them, and they hold up well to the abuse, so we may be sticking with that brand. I will check with the printer to see what other brands are available.
The design contest is open from now until June 10th, at which point they will be put into voting for a week, then orders will occur for two-three weeks. Depending on the results of the votes, the top 2/4/6 may be printed.
Wining designers get a few free shirts, and we may throw something else into the prize bags.
Multiple entries are allowed. You can post low resolution versions in this thread, but the final versions must be sent in PM to me.
Final delivered versions must be in PSD or EPS format (But pre-voting can be in JPEG/PNG), with each color as a separate layer in the psd/eps.
All profits generated by the shirts goes directly towards hardware and the hosting of FinalGear-- By selling shirts you get something physical through the wonders of mail, along with all these magical digital bits of happiness.
Boilerplate legal thing:
All entries submitted will be property of FinalGear.com. We can/will use what you submit, and you will not be entitled to revoke the usage of said content, relicense the entries to another party, or . Also, please do not submit any copywritten materials, or designs incorporating trademarks/copyrights of others (No Top Gear logo, no names of the hosts, no manufacturer's logos.. we just can't afford to license their trademarks).
Final choice of the winner rests with the sole discretion of FinalGear.com i.e., if we choose we can simply ignore all your votes and pick what we like, but so far we go with what people want.
