Contest rules and all that:
Hidden stuff:
It'd be nice to have posters advertising SS, that anyone can download, print and stick up wherever they want. So we need some good poster designs, because I'm too busy/lazy to make 'em myself Smile

So it's a contest. All good poster designs will be made available on the main site for download, but the person who makes the best design overall will get their very own subforum for a month, about anything they want (as long as it isn't something illegal, lol).

Poster design rules:

~Must be 8 1/2" x 11" size
~Must advertise SS in some way
~Must be at least mildy tasteful
~Sweet and simple is nice, with big letters
~Must have the URL - http://www.school-survival.net - somewhere on it (duh)

Deadline: Tuesday, 11 May 2010

The winner will be chosen by popular vote once all the entries are in.

To enter, just design a poster, upload it to some or other image sharing site, and paste a link to it in a reply to this thread.

Questions?

I'm guessing I'm looking at the late-teenage demographic?
Any particular message you want to convey?
Permission to use the SS logo?

Sorry, I ran out of room at the bottom there but it matches all the requirements.

It's the correct size, has SS in nice big letters, and isn't rude. What more could you want.

Laugh It's not like we could typically expect any better from the whole of SS.

I'll have mine up sometime soon.

For some reason I found that much funnier than I should have. Laugh

Re: Contest: Design a poster to advertise SS - Liquid - 04-21-2010 07:45 AM

Cool, maybe I'll try my hand at making one...

Are we trying to make something that can be printed in grayscale or something the needs to be in color?

Vector or raster?

lol @ XplodingNoggin
5... I regret loading that. I really do. lol

Questions:

Quote:I'm guessing I'm looking at the late-teenage demographic?
Or just teenage in general. Particular age isn't really relevant.

Quote:Any particular message you want to convey?
Anything that fits SS's mission: be it about the fact that they're not alone in their thinking, or a message about alternatives - whichever, as long as it's eye-catching and well-put, and is likely to get the viewer curious then it doesn't really matter.

Quote:Permission to use the SS logo?
Yup, go for it. Though that logo may scare some people off... Razz

Quote:Are we trying to make something that can be printed in grayscale or something the needs to be in color?
Would be nice if it would work in grayscale as well, but that doesn't mean it has to be totally grayscale for those people who might want to print in colour.

Quote:Vector or raster?
Vector is technically better for print quality, but for those of you who don't know WTF vector is, just ignore this message. Razz
