Probably going to enter, but I need an idea first! :lol::P

I hope this shirt will be less than 20 dollars... This is going to be awesome!

Here's an idea that i got for people that can't decide :

The long paragraph that Billie says at the start of the famous She performance at Chicago in 1994.

It would start on the start of the t-shirt and would finish on the back.

oh i just had a great idea,

maybe some famous lyric (if you can use it) or a quote typography! (like when you put a ton of words in different places and in different colors so it basically makes a picture of of the words...)

Posted

And that's how our friends in Idiot Club you make a forum interest to the people in it...

Great contest.I'm not participating cause I have no talent just wanted to point that out :lol:

WOW! I will definitely try to make a decent design, now that I have a drawing tablet :happy:

The prizes are awesome!

Posted

I have one question: Does the motive need to be on front or on the back side of the shirt or on the both? :)

Either/or. I think front is cooler, but definitely up to you.

Ok. I'm planing that the motive would be only on the front side, so then is ok. ;)

Ironically I spent most of my classtime at school designing Trilogy-inspired shirts today and then I come home and see this! :lol:

gonna try of course!

Oh wait Flo's enetering

:(

What an awesome prize! :woot: Too bad my design is boring... :(

What about a picture of Billie's face, made up of tiny "y'know"s. does that count as a picture of the band? If anyone wants to make this, its not my idea. Go ahead

We've just announced a contest on GDA to design a new shirt for the site, and the winner will be getting the Ultimate Box Set, plus a t-shirt with their design on it, and a choice between a year long subscription to the Idiot Club or $20 to use in the official Green Day store.

I'm a bit confused by this, isn't the Ultimate Box Set the one that includes an Idiot Club membership?

From Green Day Authority:

The biggest, and coolest, package is the Ultimate Box Set. This box set includes physical and digital version of all three albums. The physical CDs will each include 40-page booklets. Three digital singles are included as well - starting with "Oh Love." Also with this box set is a DVD of the documentary the band is working on about the creative process of the new albums. Finally, it includes a one-year membership to the Idiot Club.

So could the winner actually choose to have that second membership as well? And what would it mean, that'd they'd have two years worth of IC membership or that they could give the extra one as gift to a friend or something? :lol:

Anyways, I wish I was a good enough graphic designer to actually participate in this. Although I supose if I come up with any ideas I'd try to work them out.

EDIT: Nevermind, just noticed this was already clarified. :P

I'm assuming since we can use lyrics, we can use quotes from them as well?

And are notes to a song up for grabs or they off limits?

Posted

My email won't let me send the file, is it alright if I upload it from Mediafire and send the link to you guys ?

Posted

I am excited for this. I can't use photoshop for the life of me but I know we have some talented peeps here :happy:

Posted

well I suck!

But I'm still giving a try! ... I'll never be able to boy this box set now that I'm jobless haha.

Yeah, this one.

We can't use a sort of Green Day logo even if we change it, isn't it?

I mean, my idea is drawing a person which is considered a Green Day logo, but changing her pose... so it's not exactly the logo. I guess it's a problem anyway... Or not?

Posted

Can we use the official fonts? And can we send more than one entries? :lol:

Posted

There's no problem to use the titles of the songs right? As long as we don't use their fonts?

Posted

This is a great idea, I'll definitely give it a go! :happy: Awesome that it's open to everyone, too.

Just one question though - is there any image size that's best for something like this? I wouldn't want to make something tiny that couldn't be used, haha.

Posted

I might work on something...I'm kinda in the middle of a natural disaster right now so we'll see lol
