$10 PayPal/100 NP - Designing 8 1/2" x 11" Graphic

[ATWatts]

Please help me design a t-shirt graphic/web logo for my website http://www.TexasSales.net.

Text I want on the 8 1/2" x 11" graphic:

www.TexasSales.net
Free Classifieds
in over 400 Cities and
100 Colleges

There can be up to 4 colors. If you have a clever slogan, or graphic idea, please throw it out there. I am open to anything.

I would prefer it to look appealing to a younger crowd (college). Everyone is wearing retro t-shirts nowadays.

The contest will end Wednesday or Thursday depending on the response.

THANKS!!!!

These are 15MB psd files, in 300 dpi resolution, perfect for printing on clothes, and it's resizable to fit any shirt, cap, coffe mug, etc. $10 each or $18 both, 20% savings off of 1! All images were made 100% by me, no ripping off of "google stars" :p :blink:

I like the sillouette graphic, but I need a wider appeal than rodeo. I don't remember the last time I saw someone wearing a cowboy hat and boots, and I'm from Houston. Texas is diverse; I went into a Target the other day and counted 7 different languages. Parts of Texas aren't of course, but at least Houston is.

The wanted signs have been done alot. It might run the risk of looking like one of those mall shirts.

I'm looking for a simple, crisp design THANKS FOR THE DESIGNS, keep them coming!!

good luck on the contest, but for 10 bucks thats about all i can put out.

But i wish you luck with the design

Kinda of retro, usually don't do images at this size.

Thanks ATWatts.
I will try something a little different later. I will go for something not so "western". I am from Oklahoma and I know how everyone thinks we still have Indians living in Tepees. That is not how it is here! lol! Its kind of the same thing with Texas and cowboys.

Okay, here is a new concept. The design on a t-shirt will look something like this:

lextalionis,
That's like 5 or 6 colors.. only 4 max, right?

 

[lextalionis]

its actually only 3 red yellow an black. Four on a black t-shirt because white then becomes a color. It's not cmyk tho.

Yours has pink where the sign is, different shades of pink, and yellow is kind of gradient, too. Just heads up. :tu:

 

[lextalionis]

I may be wrong because I have only done a couple of shirts, but pink IS red, as far as a screen printer is concerned?

It is just red and the white T-shirt, used to create pink?

One color can be several shades, creating the effect of different colors. Like black can be all different shades of grey, depending on how far apart the ink dots are in the gel and still be one color, but to the eye appears grey.

Who knows, I'll check it out.

its 4, but can't be screen printed. The outlines on the text looks like a glow or a showdow, you can't do that with screen print
