Refashion T-Shirt Competition (Due 3-1-08)
Well its not quite a t-shirt DESIGN competition that we are used to but it is quite interesting. There is a 2008 eco-fashion design contest going on right now called “Green T”. This SewGreen project is “focusing on the cotton T-shirt as a symbol of the problems with the conventional apparel industry. The goals of the contest are to reduce purchases of conventional cotton Ts, buying organic, not treating T-shirts as throw-away items and putting old ones to use in creative new ways.”
Those who participate are supposed to reuse cotton (and denim or other fabrics) for a creative and unique t-shirt. All ages and skill levels are welcome.
The winner will receive $200 and invited to participate in refashion shows and exhibits. The deadline for the contest is March 1, 2008.

The Expanish blog is holding a t-shirt design contest and want you to design a t-shirt that represents their Spanish courses and study abroad programs in South America. The first prize winner will receive one week of Spanish group courses in Buenos Aires and the winning t-shirt. Second prize will win free private tango class in Buenos Aires and a winning t-shirt. Third prize will just win a winning t-shirt (yea the one you lost to). Designs should include the Expanish logo, a slogan the reflects both the Spanish courses that Expanish offers and the Study Abroad programs. The deadline for the contest is April 1, 2008.
If you plan on being in Buenos Aires is might be a contest to enter otherwise the prize will not be of much value.

Firefox 3 Launch T-Shirt Design Contest
Get ready to design the official Firefox 3 t-shirt design. Enter your design between now and March 16 2008.
The first round of judging will be done by an internal Mozilla team. The Mozilla team will pick the best five designs and the community will vote for the winner. The team will evaluate the designs based on concept/originality, effective communication of the brand and Firefox 3, completeness of design, visibility, legality, and feasibility. The winning design will be available for sale in the Mozilla store, a free t-shirt and a $250 gift voucher to Amazon. The four runner ups will receive a t-shirt and a $50 gift voucher to Amazon. The shirts will be printed on 100% organic t-shirts. Don’t forget to check out the Official Rules and FAQ.
The t-shirt should be designed on the themes that “reflect the positive aspects of the Web as a whole (and perhaps show Firefox’s connection to them) - things like innovation, global community, collaboration, knowledge, fun, technology, etc. OR you can “focus on any of the specific Firefox benefits as the basis for your concept. These include security, customization, “100% organic software”, performance, productivity and of course many more. See the Firefox messaging document for more inspiration.” You can view the design submissions on Flickr.
The prize is very low by todays contest standards but if you are into recognition over money then this might be a contest for you.
Visit Mozilla for more information on the Firefox 3 T-shirt Design Competition.
