As many of you are aware, we recently had our Spread the Word Contest in which contestants were posed with the challenge of getting the word about All is Brawl and getting more users to the site! The contest was a glorious success, and you can see the results here. And the contest may be over, but that doesn't mean you should stop spreading the word, who knows when we might notice your efforts in this area and choose to reward you in some other unique way... But anyway, if you had seen the rewards, you may have seen a number of prizes listed as well. More details on a lot of those are soon to come, but one of the most alluring of prizes was of course, All is Brawl T-shirts! We currently don't have a T-shirt design, and that's why we are looking to you to design our T-shirt! We had some of our own ideas for a shirt, but when it came down to it, it felt like we were just taking our logo and pasting it on a shirt, and we though that we'd like to see what you guys could come up with as the official shirt for All is Brawl! Please carefully read the rules as any submissions made not following the rules will be ignored. The tenative deadline for the contest is May 25th 2008. Rules: All submissions must go in the T-Shirt Contest Submission thread on the Forums; all submissions made in this thread, in PMs to staff, or postings in other areas will be ignored. As always, submissions must be appropriate and inoffensive You may make as many submissions as you want. For submissions, follow the format that will be outlined below. Please do not use existing shirt designs from other companies, crews, brands, etc. etc. etc. Anyone found to be doing this will bedisqualified and not able to reenter. T-Shirt Guidelines - Color of the shirt itself can be any single solid color, we were thinking black, but you are welcome to put it on whatever color you wish for your entry. T-Shirt Guidelines - Anything else on the shirt (ie patterns, logos, characters, designs, etc.) can only be consisting of two total colors, they can be any two colors, but only two additional colors (not including the color of the shirt itself). NOTE: You can exceed two colors if you want, but know that our judgement will be much much harsher for more colors, and it will be far less likely to be chosen as a winner, but don't let this stop you if your ultimate design requires more than two colors.  If it is good enough, it might win, or we might recognize it as some other useful design for the site, and recognize your contribution as such. :) T-Shirt Guidelines - You can place things on the front of the shirt, on the back, or wherever you want to as defined by your entry. Submission Guidelines - These guidelines are per shirt! Submission Guidelines - If you have a design that shows things on multiple areas of the shirt, give images of each of the areas. Submission Guidelines - If you have a design with two colors, show one picture of the final product, and then two additional sets of images each displaying with only one of the colors. EXAMPLE - I make two submissions, one that is a Blue shirt, witha Red and Yellow All is Brawl logo on the front and back, and another that is a black shirt with a white silhouette of two characters fighting with www.allisbrawl.com written underneath. My submission would consist of a total of 7 images (6 for the first submission, 1 for the second). Submission 1 images: S1F - An image of the front of the shirt final product S1B - An image of the back of the shirt final product S1FC - An image of the front of the shirt with the first color S1BC - An image of the back of the shirt with the first color S1FCC - An image of the front of the shirt with the second color S1BCC - An image of the back of the shirt with the second color Submission 2 images: S2F - An image of the front of the shirt final product (which is the only necessary submission because there is only one color, andonly on the front, so additional images are unnecessary. Like I said, entries that don't follow the guidelines above will be ignored, and possibly deleted, if any of this is confusing, or you have questions, please feel free to PM me or another Staff member and your questions will be answered.

Clearly, the followup to this contest should be the All is Brawl Wet T-Shirt Contest.

I think your typical Smasher wouldn't be the ideal entrant for that contest.

ew nerds xD jk

i can't do art well so i won't make a submission, but I will say that I think the red logo on a black or blue shirt would look good with possibly some characters in the center if the logo isn't too big (Silhouettes sound cool). I would prefer the logo and not the web address since the logo will look better and the advertising for the site is just as good still. Just my thoughts and I agree with the wet T-shirt contest idea! (:

Yeah I'm not sure how to make art online but if I could I would definitely use some characters in awesome positions or silhouettes with the AiB logo in the middle or on top.

after hearing this....i have changed my ming about purchasing this t-shirt.  XD

Or wait...what will one win for said wet t-shirt contest hmm??

I'm having an issue hosting the shirts, but I have a few made.

I am a graphic designer and am currently employed at Reebok International for their Sports Liicensed Division (Sports team logo desgin pretty much). lol, I'm trying to boast myslef. But yeah I took some time during lunch and flung a few out. they are kind of high fashion-ish designs but i will explain them

Send me an IM, (aim: AnujSuper9), and I'll help you out.

awesome, when's the deadline?

Im so going to win this. But like milk said when is the deadline?

Whoops, I seem to have misplaced the line where I had the deadline date. The tenative deadline for the contest is June 13th 2008.

Also, a good question was posed in regards to the resolution of the submission. For your submission here, post something that fits well in the page and is easily viewable, but have a very high resolution one available for download as well if possible.

If you would prefer to email these files, feel free to do so at anuj@allisbrawl.com.

i have a great idea for a high quality t shirt thats multiple colors and embraces modern style alittle more but its not allowed

See if you can adapt it to three colours

Yes. YeS YES!!!!!!

I can not wait to get my hands on the winners choice!

Word.

about colors .. are we allowed to ahve different shades .. light blue dark blue etc

Why not...Ill enter

aw, so the AiB logo counts towards our colours?

Lame, I had a mediocre Idea... well I'll tweak it so nobody steal it.

So tell me how close to be able to do this I am, I want a silhouette of the roster, like, the lined up one, or at least a good amount of them. Possibly a match between four characters. and have that on the back. then on the front, with the usual Top left "pen pocket" corner for the AiB logo. But I had hoped to use the ACTUAL logo. which sadly, isnt one colour... so Do I have to make it one colour? (or perhaps adapt it so one of its colours is the same as the silhouette)

also, are we allowed colour halftones?
