I heard that you can’t include any copyrighted logos on your design though…even Google ones. Kinda stupid if you ask me, but they’ll reject your design if you do.
According to the terms they are not looking for a “branded” t-shirt. So those of you going through with a design better beware before you spend the time working on a design.
I think the t-shirt contest is a wonderful oportunity for artists to stretch their abilities to create something spectacular following the limitations of 5 colors only and the other computer limitations. It is cheaper than buying lottery tickets and you have better odds of winning. I draw the designs and ask my husband who is computer wise to scan them and make them acceptable, so it is a partnership. Even if I don’t win, the journey is fun.
Very Nice
