The FMDF K & M Discovery Team will be holding the 3rd annual Diggin' It With Friends Treasure Hunt in Clay Center, Ks at Huntress Park on April 9th and just like last year, we want you to have the opportunity to design our t-shirts! For this years contest we will be accepting designs from all members of the forum. Each member may submit one or up to a total of three designs. When the submission period for this contest is over, the selected judge will choose the five best designs and then we will let you, the members of FMDF choose the design which will be on our T-Shirts for 2011.
The winner of this years competition will receive:
One Gray Area Graphics T-Shirt with the winning design on it! - Donated by floridabill - Contact Bill for all of your graphic designs! He loves doing custom work and his products normally ship next day.
A brand new set of Jolly Roger headphones! - Donated by Colonial Metal Detectors - Rich has outstanding communications, service and lighting fast shipping!
A new copy of Coin Hunting in Depth by Dick Stout - Donated by Lightningjack - Mr Stout has been involved in the treasure hunting/metal detecting pastime for over 30 years now, and has authored three books, written hundreds of articles, and worked in the industry itself.
Here are some more specifics on how to create your design:
• Size: All designs for the back of the shirt should be created to fit a maximum of 10" x 10" and be 300 dpi (a maximum of 3000 pixels wide x 3000 pixels high).
• File Type: We will accept designs in the form of eps, jpg, png, tiff, bmp, or psd.
• Colors: To keep the cost of the t-shirts at a minimum to the members, all shirts will be on white cotton t-shirts. However feel free to to use as many colors as you need for your design.
• Effects: Try not to get too fancy with shading, gradients and the like as this makes the shirt harder for the company to recreate.
• Keep your source files! If you use Photoshop or Paintshop to create your design, please keep a copy of your layered file as we may need it to make adjustments to better fit the company’s requirements.
• Do Not! Use Zazzle or Cafepress to create your entries. If you do they become property of said companies and we can't use them.
Some ideas that you may want to work with are, using the Diggin' It With Friends slogan and coupling it with some kind of relevant artwork. Perhaps you could create a character that could be used as the Treasure Hunt mascot. Be creative and keep in mind that there isn't a limit to the type of design you come up with.The only exception is that it must be a "family friendly" design (meaning no swears or other explicit adult material). For obvious reasons, please stay away from copying trademark's and logo's (like mine lab, whites logo's etc).
