T-shirt Design Contest [CLOSED]

THE T-SHIRT DESIGN CONTEST IS CLOSED!! WE WILL NO LONGER BE ACCEPTING ANYMORE ENTRIES!! WE WILL BEGIN OVERVIEW OF ALL THE ENTRIES WITHIN THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS AND HOPE TO HAVE A DECISION BY THE END OF THE WEEK, OR PERHAPS SOONER IF WE CAN ALL SIT DOWN AND DISCUSS IT IN A TIMELY MANNER!! BUT WE WILL KEEP YOU ALL POSTED!!


After a month or so of busy cosplay/convention work I've finally gotten around to afford and get information about this contest. So, this group will be holding a Summer Contest for a T-shirt design! Since there are not many DP shirts out there, I thought this might be fun to do since in the end if you win FIRST you will be getting your own T-shirt (or other thing) with your own design in the mail and professionally printed~! I will be telling what 2nd place and 3rd place will be winning after the rules.

RULES:
You guys will be getting a bit creative while designing because here's the thing:

>It MUST be in black and white ONLY. (if you absolutely desire it to have another color, it can only include 1 other color, since it'll cost $5 extra at the print shop for each additional color, and we will require you to cover that additional cost) Grey is considered an extra color as well.
>Resolution MUST be at least 1000x1000 pixels
>It must have crisp, clean, solid  lines (such as drawn with sharpies, prismacolors, or copic), or be digitized. Jagged or rough edges are really hard to get onto a print and turn out looking horrible. We can not accept blurred images or shading that is a different color, as it is also considered adding another color and will cost more.
>You can only submit 1 piece of Artwork
>You may either create a new piece specifically for this contest or something you already have in your current gallery, but must be 1 single drawing and not a multiple picture montage.

Here's an example of a design that works:

The Original Piece is here:
The Digitized Piece is here:

**You will be responsible for digitizing your artwork, as we will not accept the responsibility of doing it for you.**

The deadline is Labor Day Weekend. That Monday which is September 3rd. If more time is required, I will happily extend the deadline for a little longer but I will only do that ONCE.

PRIZES
You will be allowed to select one of these following Items to have your design printed on:

>T-shirt (You can decide the color of the shirt and color of the print)
>Beanie (the color of beanies are limited, mostly black, but you will still get to decide what color you'd like the print to be)
>Decal Sticker (Bumper Sticker/plain sticker that can be placed anywhere, cars, notebooks, laptops, computers, etc.)

1st place will get to pick first which one they would like, then 2nd gets to pick next and 3rd gets whatever is leftover. Judging will be based on creative/artistic skill.

_______________________________

If you wish to participate I will be opening a folder named CONTEST so you guys can submit there. This contest is all about being creative with the Black and White effect. You'll have to think about what will be visible on the T-shirt and what will blend in with the color of the T-shirt. Thanks for participating if you do and good luck!

DEADLINE
SEPTEMBER 3RD 2012
