Hello everyone!
We are so excited to announce the third annual TPS T-Shirt Design Competition! Over the years, clay has launched several contests, such as the Photography and GP7 Music Competitions. We look forward to continuing this tradition with the T-shirt Competition!
The talented artists and designers of our community will have the opportunity to design a T-shirt specifically for the TPS community. We can’t wait to see your submissions!
The rules can be found below, but please let us know if you have any questions.
Rules and Specifications:
Submissions should be high resolution 10×10 inch files for printing on the front center of the shirt or 4×4 inch files for printing below the shoulder where a pocket would be located (there will be no pocket on the T-shirt). File size should not exceed 25 MB. Acceptable file types are .jpg, .jpeg, .png, or .pdf. Applicants should retain their original design in an editable fashion in case changes are needed.
Ideally, the design should use only one color (a maximum of two colors is allowed) and must have a transparent background. Any color may be selected. If the designer can provide the PMS code for the color(s) used, more precision can be attained when printing.
The design will be printed on a Gildan cotton unisex t-shirt (available T-shirt colors for the background can be found here: https://www.blankapparel.com/colorcharts/gildan). Please specify if you would like your design to appear on a shirt of a particular color.
You may incorporate a screenshot of the TPS or clay logo into your design, as long as it is in a single color. TPS will provide the contest finalists with a logo file in the appropriate size/color for their design before the final entries are posted for voting.
PLEASE NOTE: All designs should be completely original to you or compiled from components that are clearly in the public domain and allowed to be reproduced (e.g. Clipart components). Submissions that do not meet these specifications will not be considered. Furthermore, we will only accept ONE submission per person.
All designs must be submitted by December 19. Any submissions we receive past the deadline will not be considered. The designs selected to advance to the final round will be posted on clay, where TPS students can vote on their favorite. The winner will be announced in mid-January.
Please submit your design using the form below.
If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact us. And please spread the word to your friends and classmates! We’d like to have as many people participate as possible. Best of luck, and we look forward to seeing your T-shirt designs!
