Envato Community 2019 T-shirt contest - winners now announced!

Design a T-shirt for the Envato Community and win some great prizes!

We want you to create a T-shirt for the Envato Community! We’ll be using the winning design for contest prizes throughout the year, and we will also be giving T-shirts to our moderators as a small thank you for their hard work and dedication!

What we’re looking for

We want to celebrate our awesome community with a dedicated T-shirt design and we need your help to design it! Your mission is to design a shirt that captures the creative talent and friendly, supportive camaraderie that our Envato community from around the entire world continues to demonstrate.

Here are some winning entries in previous T-shirt contests to give you an idea of the standard we are looking for!

How to Enter

  • Create a T-shirt design to celebrate the Envato community
    • Designs will be printed on the front of the T-shirts only.
    • Your design must be in a scalable vector format that you can share with us (.eps, .ai, or .psd)
    • Your design must be in CMYK format
    • Your design should incorporate the Envato logo (download a copy here!).

Participation prizes

Our judges will also select 10 people who are active in this contest thread, and we’ll send each of them a 2019 T-Shirt once the winning design has been finalised :slight_smile:

  • You don’t need to submit a design in order to be eligible - participation prizes are open to everyone posting in this thread, whether you’re entering the contest or posting in support of the other entrants.

Important Dates

  • January 11 - Design contest opens!
  • February 24 (11pm AEDT) - Design contest ends

FAQs

I came up with a better idea - can I enter again?
Entries are limited to one per person. If you decide you’d like to enter with an updated design, simply edit your original post - our judges will be looking through the full list of submissions after the contest closes.

I won a previous T-shirt contest - can I have one of those badges?
Absolutely! The new badge hasn’t been implemented on Envato Market by our developers yet, but once it’s live we’ll be applying it to the accounts of previous T-shirt contest winners.

Good luck!

Can it be in not vector format but in very big resolution (far far beyond enough for print on shirts) ? :slight_smile:

One more question -> what is the maximum space (in cm or inches) the design can be?

That’s a different thing, We all have to go one extra mile for customers to make them happy if we want to stick to market for longer.

Anyway let’s focus on this contest and try to grab bounties and T-shirt

@BenLeong Hey! I would really suggest rethinking the amount of people who is awarded with the badge.

I do think that t-shirt designer badge should be given to everyone who spends their time and gives creative power into creating t-shirt design. Lets say awarded to 20-50 *chosen participants?(*to avoid untruthful design spam)

Thus, the badge would be met on forums and markets more and seen more times, which would show people - other authors and buyers - that community is inventive and participatious (is there such word?lol).

The winner of course has the moneyz and the tshirt and the badge. But the badge could be and should be Not a single badge worn only by one designer and rarely met in forums.

Just my humble opinion and suggestion :wink:
