Alright, the submission part of our contest is done with to pick the new t-shirt design for Lunarpages, now onto the voting part of our competition.  Who is your choice?!  Go ahead and vote and help us decide!  Voting will be closed December 28, 2007. Just as a reminder - here is what this contest is all about:

Lunarpages is holding a contest for our new t-shirt design, and you are all invited to submit your designs.  Currently we have black t-shirts with a white design on the back and we would like something a bit snazzier.  Please post your entries here as images or a link to your design, and on December 17th we will close out the contest and spend the following 11 days voting as a community on the best 5 entries.  Winner will be announced December 28th!

Ideally we would like 2 versions, black design on a white background and a white design on a black background.  You can however use up to 4 different colors in the design.  Keep in mind we would like these to work on both black and white shirts. 

The winning prize is a Xbox 360 OR $400!

I love being the first to vote. Makes me feel special.  Surprised

And I adore the Pacman design! All of them are fantastic, but I'd be psyched to wear that one at Hosting Con next year!

Man- that's a tough one- they are all really good.
I guess I had to go with #5 as well, simply because I think it would cause a lot of double takes and stares.

Ok, I'm confused now. Is the limited colour palette that Amy had specified being ignored now? As by going through the list of entries to vote from, I see only 3 entries which respect the 4 colour limit, the others using gradients which result in 200+hues in order to maintain quality.

Please don't get me wrong, in no way do I wish to bash the other contestants or their entries: they're great. I'm just trying to clarify what restrictions we were told were present in this contest. As if it this restriction was not present, I would have surely entered some more complex ideas as I'd be able to utilize a much larger colour palette.

Can I vote my own design?…hehehehe

i understand your concerns danny but you can pretty much presume the t-shirt (what ever the winning design is) will be printed in 4-colour due to cost effectiveness.  it really wouldn't be feasible any other way and, may i add, you should have little to worry about as yours is the best design.  i've been subject to this kind of stuff all through my professional career and your t-shirt is the only one i'd pass.

ok, so i may only wear it outside an exhibition for 'special' occasions - like decorating (ha!  Surprised) but it does it's job very effectively, tis' retro, complies by the rules, easy on the eye etc - in fact it's a shame you couldn't squeeze in a comment about "uranus" too..  Surprised

great job, got my vote.

  When a t shirt is printed, a screen is used for each color (or 'Hue') of the design.  The gradient of a color is produced by varying 'dot' sizes (they may not actually be dots).  For instance, to print my design on a black shirt, they would only need to use two colors: Red and White.  To put it on a white shirt the printer would use black and red.  eMail me if you'd like more details.

I like the Pac-Man idea, but aren't they (the images/likeness of PacMan and the ghost)  copyrighted? Confused

I believe they are owned by Namco, and we would not be able to print them without permission.

Yeah maybe, but as long as you say it is a pie eating a tablecloth with a face - then that puts you back in the clear.  Rofl

Find it odd that my designs weren't even up for voting yet something that didn't fit the 4 color rule did. Oh well, sour grapes.
