Maverik's Design Our Next Shirt Contest | Maverik's Design Our Next Shirt Contest by neil on October 26, 2009Maverik wants you to design their next shirt! If you think you've got the Photoshop skills then get cracking, cause the contest starts right now. The deal is simple. You upload your designs to your photo albums page (which you can also reach from your user page). There's no limit on how many designs you can enter.
Starting Dec 1st we close the door to new submissions and let the whole Lax.com community vote (voting will be open for a week) for the top three designs. Only the #1 winner will have his design manufactured and distributed by Maverik, but the three finalists get this schwag:
1st place - Maybach Gloves, Maybach Shoulder Pads, Maybach Arm Pads, Vision Head, a Wonderboy Shaft, and lots of the final shirt product.
2nd place - Maybach Gloves, Vision Head
3rd place - Vision Head
Tech Note: we only accept gif, jpeg, and png for image uploads so make sure to keep any master files around (like your photoshop .ai files) in case you win. for help with any designs that want to use the Maverik logo we put the .ai file here and the jpeg here.
Legal Note: by submitting your design for this contest you are agreeing that Maverik will own, and have full usage rights for, any design entered.
All shirt entries can be viewed here, which is also accessible from the front page. |  | |  | | Reply to this story > |  |  |
 | Images, logo etc. by macmat (#79817) on 10/27/09 @6:14AM |  | | | If Maverik wants something with their logo on, it would be advisable to make some images and logos available for the designs.

| |  | good point by neil (#2) on 10/27/09 @11:59AM |  | | | i just edited the story to provide links to the maverik ai and jpg. of course, its also not mandatory that you use their logo or name in the design. it can be anything as long as its cool. | | |  |  | Reply to this |

| |  | they have to be approved.... by neil (#2) on 10/31/09 @4:05PM |  | | | if it was immediately popped in there then anything you submitted would automatically show up on our front page. which would not be good. | | |  |  | Reply to this |

| | |  | Voting? by acrapella (#228251) on 10/31/09 @8:07PM |  | | | Hey Neil how does the voting work? Will people have to opportunity to vote more then once? And does Maverick have any say into what design wins? because I don't think it's fair if people just vote for there friends and the design is not good at all. | | |  |  | Reply to this |
|
| | | |  | it'll be Heisman style by neil (#2) on 11/02/09 @10:20AM |  | | | everyone votes for their top 3, and the highest point total wins. you can only vote once. the voting will be open for a week, to all lax.com users. some someone's friends voting can only sway it a bit. | | |  |  | Reply to this |

| | | |  | Paint by molax57 (#193467) on 11/01/09 @6:51PM |  | | | not the most technically savvy person in the world so i just made one on paint by editing images and pasting them onto t-shirt templates. is that ok? and how to i sumbit my photo so that it appears with the rest of them? | | |  |  | Reply to this |
|
| | | | |  | pasting photos on a T by neil (#2) on 11/02/09 @10:21AM |  | | | will not get approved. one, they can't make a T-shirt out of a photograph, and two, its just lame. | | |  |  | Reply to this |

 | Mcdonalds? by acrapella (#228251) on 11/03/09 @3:45PM |  | | | I made a maverik mcdonalds shirt and i dont see it in the contest with the other shirts. Just wondering why? | | |  |  | Reply to this |
|
 | Mcdonalds Design? by acrapella (#228251) on 11/07/09 @7:52PM |  | | | My design is still not posted and I'm just wondering why? | | |  |  | Reply to this |
|
| |  | first, it had McDonald's trademark on it... by neil (#2) on 11/07/09 @9:25PM |  | | | and Maverik can't make a T out of that. second, we're still recovering files from our server -- the motherboard fried at 3am tuesday, and we'll have a new server up shortly with all the recovered files. so we're currently missing some images. | | |  |  | Reply to this |

 | Maverik by acrapella (#228251) on 11/19/09 @8:33PM |  | | | Does MAVERIK have anything to do with this contest? And will this tshirt be produced by them on there website? | | |  |  | Reply to this |
|
| |  | i'm pretty sure... by neil (#2) on 11/19/09 @10:25PM |  | | | we didn't make this up without their permission.
don't know if it'll be on their site, but as the story above indicates, they will make it and sell it. | | |  |  | Reply to this |
