Hey all you creative types!
It’s time to order a new batch of MYPG t-shirts and we need your help with the design. In an effort to get you to share your talent with us for free, we’re enticing you with a design contest.
You might be wondering “what’s in it for me?” If you are the winner, besides receiving accolades for your amazing design skills, you’ll also get an MYPG prize package (it will be cool, we promise). We’ll even throw in a little something for anyone who enters.
The rules:
- Contest is open to any MYPG member.
- You may enter as many designs as you like.
- Only one prize or gift will be given per person.
- Winner will be selected by the Steering Committee.
- You must use the MYPG logo somewhere on the shirt. Get the logo from Traci: tlutton@muncie.com.
Things to consider:
- You do not have to use a standard black or white shirt.
- Slogans are ok. Be creative! Just remember that we are a professional group with a positive message.
- Cost is an issue, so don’t design something which requires 8 colors of glitter ink.
- You must maintain the integrity of the MYPG logo.
How to enter:
- Deadline for submissions is April 10, 2009.
- Files should be submitted in PDF and EPS to muncieypg@gmail.com.
- Please convert your text to outlines/curves or send the fonts with your files.
GOOD LUCK!
