The objective of this Challenge is to have artwork created that represents the essence of Firefox 4 and will be used for t-shirts supporting the launch. It may also be used on on other merchandise.
The browser a completely fresh new look, and loaded it with cutting edge new features. Firefox 4 is snappy and fast, faster than ever before! And you can take it with you wherever you go. But at the end of the day, it’s also simply about having fun. We believe the internet is a fun place, and Firefox is the best way to experience it.
Eligibility
You must be a member of the Creative Collective to enter and to vote on the entries. There is no cost to join the Creative Collective.
Design Submission
Go to the entry page (after log in) and use the tools and instructions provided on the Entry Page to submit your design (“Entry”). You may submit as many Entries as you want.
Requirements
# Ideal printing space is roughly a 10×10 inch square canvas on the front of the shirt.
# Design for the front only, as the back will already have the Firefox wordmark printed.
# Please include a background color suggestion in your mockup. This will be the color of the t-shirt your design is printed on.
# You can use a basic t-shirt template as a reference guide for placement and size when designing. But please submit only the design itself, not a mockup with the t-shirt.
# Files should be uploaded as high-res (300 dpi) PNGs or JPEGs. But be sure to hold onto the original working files, because if you win we will need those. Be sure to optimize the file for print, and preserve all the layers.
# Original artwork should be created using a scalable vector graphics editor program (SVG format), such as Adobe Illustrator or Inkscape.
Selection
An internal team at Mozilla will select the top 5 design submissions based on the following criteria:
* creativity of the design
* effectiveness at communicating the key themes
* adherence to the above creative brief.
The top 5 will then be opened for a public vote – with the overall winner and 4 runners up chosen by the community. Votings begin on 15 March 2011.
Prize
The winner will be featured on the Creative Collective homepage and will receive a Champion of the Collective badge for his/her profile. The winning design will be printed as the official Firefox 4 launch t-shirt, a limited edition item featured in the Mozilla store and distributed to thousands of fans and contributors around the world.
The 4 runner-ups will receive a Minister of Design badge.
