Kev and Gordon nailed it for me! I would be in... :thumbsup

And please offer various colors this time!!!!!!!!
 
Any chance of having the winner printed on black Polo shirts this year, as an option maybe?

We can look into the pricing on it. I think the issue with polos are that due to the knit, they are harder to screen print on, but I can always ask.

Thanks Art, see how it goes, i just like Polo's, but if not, itll have to be a couple of Tee's for upcoming UK cons, some of the designs here guys are just great, its going to be hard to pick a winner.

I actually REALLY like that front design!:thumbsup

I didn't have much time so I threw that together to show the general idea of what the front would look like.
Basically, it's like a racing stripe but with the logo fading out top and bottom.
The backside is a joke of course....I will have to come up with something better...

That front logo reminds me so much of a treatment I have seen before... maybe on a movie poster or album cover... I just can't put my finger on it, but I REALLY like it.

I like that one.....reminds me of an old film strip running out, or getting loose, or whatever it is that causes several incarnations of the image in varying degrees of focus to be shown on the screen flipping around!

A better version with the back taken seriously:

This is starting to look great. I love the front and wouldn't change a thing.
The back needs work IMHO. I think it is a great start...
I would just change a few things.

1. I feel the icons sink too low. While I don't tuck in my shirts, some people do and that would be an issue. Maybe just shrink the image on the back down a bit.

2. Maybe drop the RPF, come up with a new icon layout and just put the web address under them? Just a thought.

3. The lines running through the icons just don't work. Were you going for a grunge effect and a worn look? There are cool photoshop brushes to create that effect better.

Aside from that, I feel this design will be in the top two best ones yet. Your and Protokev's.

Great work :)
 
Thought I'd post some at this point.
Just some of what I have. These are just using the logos itself in different layouts. Simple and clean style like the original.

More to come later.

Thanks for the input. I will see what I can come up with.
What font am I to use for text?

This is REALLY ROUGH and is not Hi-Res, but I threw this together as a possible starting point on the back. I had an idea and instead of explaining it, I figured it would be easier to show it.

Since the front has a nice verticle look to the lines of the artwork, I thought it would be a nice contrast to go horizontal with the back. Also I thought about keeping the theme of the front with ghosting the other icons.

Anyway, this is just an idea and if you choose to build on it great, if you don't and find a better option, I know you will knock it out of the park :)

Again great work and I am so in love with that damn from :)
