2017 Code4Lib T-Shirt Design Competition

From Code4Lib
Jump to: navigation, search

Starting Monday October 17th, 2016, we are issuing a month-long open call for a logo design that will be featured on the front of the Code4Lib 2017 Conference t-shirt. The winning logo will be based on a popular vote, which will commence after the submission process closes.

DESIGNS ARE DUE BY FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 2016 at 5 PM Pacific Standard Time

Please submit your high-quality image to the Submissions section of this wiki page. You can host the image yourself or use the Upload file feature of the wiki. Be sure to include your name and email address!

Details

  • Along with your image, name, and email address, you can add a line or two of explanatory text, color specifications, etc., which will be included with your design when voting begins.
  • Place a horizontal rule (----) on a separate line after your submission.
  • Original art only, please!
  • The screen-printers generally need vector art files (ai, .cdr, .eps & .pdf). If you need help converting your design to one of these file formats, email Shira.

The t-shirt color will (probably) be black, but we can look into changing the color depending on the design that is ultimately selected. If the winning design's assumed color is something other than the traditional black, we will try to get the t-shirts in the requested color. If that color is not feasible, the logo will default to white or gray, depending on the requested design contrast, on a black t-shirt.

(Please stick to a color scheme that folks who are colorblind will be able to see.)
