Rules for the Contest:
  1. No trademarked images can be placed on the T-shirt with the exception of eGO's trademarked logo.

  2. Follow eGO rules. No profranity, no racism, nothing sexually explicit.

  3. Each division must post only to that division's thread. - Please do not post COD T-shirt ideas to TF2's thread.

  4. Leadership of each division will choose the top five ideas for the poll after two weeks.


  5. Each T-shirt design will have the eGO logo on the front with the Division title underneath. The design is for the back of the T-shirt. If the image is centered, the dimensions must be no larger than 10" x 10", and if it higher on the back/across the shoulders the dimensions can be no larger than 10" x 4". The final image MUST be 200 DPI and in .png format. This does NOT rule out taglines, slogans, or concepts - it is merely the final image that must be formatted for printing.

Post your ideas, graphics, or slogans for your division in this thread. Only ideas or concepts from this thread will be chosen for the poll for your division.​
 
Oh, coolies. =o I like this. Now if only I was good enough with graphics to work on something...

And btw, I dont know if you have been thinking about any prizes for the poll winning design for each division, but I was thinking the designer should get the first one printed themselves free of charge. :P After all, it is their work. =o
 
Sweet, I love this idea! I also agree with jawneh, they should get a free one :)

Also, maybe I missed it but there is no limit as to how many times you can enter a design?
 
No trademarked images? So, does that mean that the TF2 logo cannot be on it? What about TF2 characters or anything like that?

Oh, and I'll get to work on this when I get home :)

Click to expand...

I was wondering the same thing.
 
Tiddy confuses me...

Seeing as how the TF2 logo and the characters' likenesses are trademarked images, I doubt you would be able to sell shirts with a design involving them without cutting in Valve for a share of the profits, if not giving it all to Valve. I would think you would at least need to draw up a release form and secure clearance of the image for something like that...

So we can't use the TF2 logo, name, characters, weapons, maps, or quotations due to copyright violations.

This is going to be difficult.
 
You can most likely use the font style (blackoak/blackoak std)

The TF2 logo is a copyrighted image. You can't even use a part of it like this:

I'm assuming it's safe if you redraw a character. I'll have mine up later. :D
Also, where can I get the large eGO logo (with transparency)?
 
Please keep in mind that right now, the T-shirts would only be available in white or ash grey. We do NOT have the option to add anything to the backs of the "Dark" T-shirts. That means no black, navy, maroon, or military green Divisional T-shirts.

I posted in the News post on the front page that once the contest is over, and the T-shirts are on the eGO CafePress store - Custom Orders will be made available. They will be posted not only in the Shirts/Hoodies/Coats section, but also in the Custom Gear section so that you can order one with your in-game name and rank on the front. Custom orders are an additional $10. Just send me a PM here on the forum with your request, and I'll let you know when your custom gear is ready for purchase on the site. These are the ONLY T-shirts that will be made available for customization.
 
Again, please, no copyrighted images. We cannot legally use them for T-Shirts that will be posted for sale - so we cannot accept them in the contest.

I know that makes it harder to design a T-shirt for your Division. But that's also part of the point. This means that the members who have just an idea, or a funny tagline they want on the back can compete just as easily with the artists and graphic designers.
