If a design does not follow the specifications, we may not be able to use it in the competition. Here is a list of things that you may do wrong:

  • File Dimensions - The final thumbnails must be 100 pixels wide by 70 pixels tall. Any large images must be 640 pixels wide by 480 pixels tall.
  • File Size - The thumbnail must be under 4kb and the large image must be under 70kb.
  • Design Dimensions & Placement The design must be within a 14 x 14 inch area and may not extend over the shirt seams.
  • Too Many Colors - Your design must have 4 or less unique colors, no gradients, no photographs, no tiny halftones. Remember, both black & white count as a color. The white color of the tee shirt does not count toward the four color limit.
