Quote: any min/max size requirements on the mock ups?

I thought about that, but wasn't sure what would make a good standard size.

I think about 500 pixels wide max would be good. I don't want it to be too small to where you can't see the design.

It's in the yellow box a couple paragraphs up from the "cheesy design theme" reference

Quote: So the loose theme of this year's t-shirt design contest will be "The Year of the T-Shirt" (a t-shirt design about the t-shirt industry). Get your creative engines cranking!

because I'm not a designer, would a photo collage of t-shirt evolution be allowed in ?

...I think I can handle paper cut and paste pretty good. ...but even that takes time to do.

If it's something that can be printed by a screen printer (high resolution photos that you have rights to), I guess that could work.

I may have missed it, but is their a specific color shirt we are designing for? Or is the shirt color up to us too?

It hasn't been specified. Last year there was a poll for members to decide on the shirt colour. I don't know what will happen this year, but I'm sure it doesn't have to be on a specific colour (most designs can work on at least a few different colours anyway... I dare say it would call into the category of "If your design wins, we'll figure out a way to get it printed" ).

Yep, the shirt color is up to you as well.

I think that will be an interesting side benefit...seeing which shirt/design/color combinations people come up with and which are more popular

The 4-color limit does not include the flash for dark shirts does it?

Nope, even though sometimes printers charge that as an extra color, for the purposes of the contest, 4 colors is 4 colors

Thanks. This should be fun. I'm anxious to see what everybody comes up with. The Voting will be hard to choose I'm sure.

oh wow, I'm psyched about this. I don't know if many people will go for what I have in mind, but as long as I remember to get to work on it I should have something good.
