Design Best OCC Shirt for 10,000 points

September 30th, 2008 at 11:59 am

OCCers, your Challenge this week: design your own ONE Campus Shirt.

Submit your entries by midnight on Sunday. Winner gets 10,000 points.  This is the second time we’ve done this challenge and we got some pretty clever/aesthetically pleasing submissions last year. Here’s to hoping for more of the same. Some helpful hints on what we, the judging panel, are looking for:

-Put a large, clear ONE logo somewhere on the shirt. Obviously the point of this Weekly Challenge is to develop a ONE Campus Challenge shirt, so we should know what the shirt is for. Feel free to reference this year’s theme, too!

-Make sure that the writing is visible. The message of a shirt is much more accessible if someone walking past doesn’t need to squint to read it.

-Avoid too much clutter. If you have only three seconds to display your shirt to someone walking past, you want to make sure they understand it!

-Use your U. Incorporate your school’s flair on your design. Minimum 16 pieces…just kidding.

-DON’T use a school logo without appropriate permission. We at ONE encourage lawful t-shirts so let’s try to avoid the copyright issues.

-DON’T use profanity. No one likes an angry garment.

-DON’T endorse a candidate or political party. We’re nonpartisan here and try to give love to both sides of the aisle, or none at all.

We’re only allowing one submission per OCC member, but schools can submit as many designs as desired to increase their probability. Submit your designs here.

FYI – If you’ve already submitted a T-shirt design, you may submit it again for challenge winner consideration, but you will not get the additional 150 “ONE your shirt” action points for any previously-submitted design. And while the limit is one design per member, if you have submitted a design before this week, you may submit a different one for this challenge and get the points as well as challenge winner consideration.

Good luck!
