Threadless

Blog!

The 5+5+5 Competition!!!



5 Colors, 5 Winners, 5 Grand Each!

Starting RIGHT NOW every design that is submitted to Threadless, including submissions to “Loves” competitions, is automatically entered into the 5+5+5 Competition until January 1st 2007. This competition is to announce that from now on, Threadless will be accepting design submission with up to 5 colors!

Once the competition ends, we will choose 5 of the highest-scoring submissions to be printed and the designers will each receive a prize package including $5,000 in cash, a $250 Threadless Gift Certificate, and a one-year membership to the Threadless 12 Club!

Designers, keep in mind that you don’t need to have 5 colors in your design to submit to this competition. You can win with a one, two, three, four or a five-color design! So get those noodles cookin, and let’s see what you can do now that you have another color to work with!

This will be unfair to other designers because the know-it-all voting public will just give you a fiver if they see a cutesy-thingamajig-with-face-kiddie-type-no-brainer element on your design, so I think it should've been the 5 best, not the 5 highest scored.

well the submission page has alway stated they pick new highs scoring designs each week, and considering 2 of the past 3 loves contest winners were 2.18 it must start around there

i'm so used to 4 color max- sometimes it's quite perfect. i've done 5 colors and sometimes it's too much...but oh crap, i'm throwing down for this one.



5 grand would buy a nice used car........or the big honda Ruckus!

Ste7en, I'm sure this contest will bring out the best out of most serious designers here, which will prolly mean a bunch of scores that go over 3.00. You should totally try to sub.

i think sometimes a design needs more than four colors but usually i think if it can be done in five it can be done in four... it'd be crazy if there was unlimited colors, there'd be INSANE designs for that... but that's probably too expensive haha

well, now that there are five colors, people are going to say that isnt enough either. I did kinda like the 4 colors too because it challenged designers to think more about how to color their work. anyways, I submitted 3 to the contest, maybe 2 more, if possible by tomorrow. Best of luck to everyone and wish me luck as well
