ame deal as the sticker design one. Winner will get a bunch of NS swag, and his design will be printed on a limited edition newschoolers.com t-shirt which will be sold in the NS store! Here is all the info you need:

-The design can be up to two colors, and as intricate as you'd like

-It can be more than just a chest logo, but if it is you will have to post it as a concept (aka on a t-shirt) with a front and a back

-Any image format will work, just post them in here

-It can be ANYTHING your heart desires, as long as it's dope and we like it

-You can use previously posted designs from the sticker contest

-Contest ends July 10th

-Winner will be decided by NS staff and you guys!

I'm expecting to see some really nice stuff, especially after the success of the previous design contest. This one gives you guys more freedom, as it can be more than just a logo/design, can be multiple colors, and can be as complex as you want. Bring them on!

Please refrain from quoting pictures, as it really clogs up the thread and will probably just be deleted. If anything, quote the person and not their image. Thanks!

oh...and "earn or respect?"  That sounds awfully pretentious to me.  What makes you think you are worthy of MY respect?  I don't necessarily have to respect you.  Who are you?  Do you have some  sort of authority over me that i am unaware of?  I obviously don't respect a fair amount of these designs(thats not to say i don't respect all of these designs.  In fact there are several that i think are really well done! Those people should be very proud of their designs.)

The definition of pretentious according to dictionary.com is: making claim to or creating an appearance of (often undeserved) importance or distinction; "a pretentious country house"; "a pretentious fraud"; "a pretentious scholarly edition" 

The modifier there is "often" meaning in most, but not all cases the appearance of importance is undeserved.  I am aware of my design background, and i feel i have a natural eye for good design and composition.  What is your background like?

oh fuck it I'll point them out anyway:
firstly I said earn our respect not my respect, get your facts straight before taking a dump on me, then you say,"Those people should be very proud of their designs," I mean for god sake I'm pretty sure they know there designs are dope, and they don't need you to tell them they should be proud, then you quote a dictionary to prove your point, if your that clever stud, why don't you just know what it means already ? you feel you have a natural eye for good design, I can see that in your awesome T-Shirt designs....oh wait you don't have any, and they you ask me what my background is like, wtf has that got to do with anything? but okay I'll take the claim: I'm a professional photographer, I have designed countless commercial websites and I've been given grants to produce my work on multiple occasions, oh yea and i have an """natural eye for good design"""

I say again: GTFO

I'm just arguing with you dude.  I thought thats the point of online forums, and i  didn't mean to insult you. I actually didn't notice that you responded to my second post with such a nice comment until after i made that last post.  Again i am sorry, i should learn to listen before i comment. I was just saying if i have to earn respect how can you earn my respect?  I can respect you now because you have taken to arguing with me with well thought out good points.  If you don't agree with what i'm saying thats fine but you don't have  to get all uptight when i point out flaws in YOUR argument.  I realize i am being confrontational, but that is just  my personality.  From now on i'll try to keep my arguments more respectful.

As for my background with design: right now i am studying to get my masters in Architecture as well as Planning.  While Architecture is not "graphic design" it does teach me to be aware of the componants that make up all aspects of design.  Componants like: form, composition, style, and concept.  Also i have printed my own t-shirts before so i know the process.

Again i am sorry to offend you.  While i have been on this site for a while i still am new to the edict required for online posting.  Oh... and i do respect you for your photography because i have taken photo classes before and i am aware of the time and effort required to create a good photo.

Good... Im glad to hear it.
Also by "natural eye" i don't mean to imply that i have a better understanding of desgin than every one else.  I am just saying some people have a natural talent and some people don't.  Were all good at some things, but we cant all be good at everything.   I have horrible people skillz.

Ill try to get some pics up, and let me know what you think.
