Strata_0 needed a new t-shirt design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 81 designs submitted by 3 freelance designers.
BACKGROUND: This design will be used on a WHITE tank top which will be worn at an opening ceremony for a softball tournament for 10 year old girls. The tournament's opening ceremony has a theme which is a Hawaiian luau. The team is from the state of Maryland and the logo is being attached for utilization in the design. Would like to design a shirt using the team's logo with elements such as surf boards and hibiscus flowers to play on the Hawaiian theme. Really looking for a fun, professional design for this girls team.
So the thoughts would be:
FRONT DESIGN: Incorporate the team's logo as the main visual accompanied by surf boards and hibiscus flowers (and any other elements as creatively incorporated). Another possible design element with the surf idea would be to incorporate a crashing wave in the ocean. The team's logo utilizes the state of Maryland's flag inside of the lettering of the team's name. Feel free to change out the Maryland flag background in the logo and possibly put the hibiscus into the logo if it adds to the design. Be as creative as possible to feed into the design. The word "Maryland" should be placed above the team name (logo) somehow since the team's name is Maryland Fever. The other words that need to appear are "2018 National Championships" which is the name of the tournament and "Surf Team." While this shirt is for a softball team, the "Surf Team" is being included as a fun play on the Hawaiian theme.
BACK DESIGN: Would like to have state of Maryland flag incorporated somehow along with a list of each player's jersey number and name. The list can run down the middle of the back of the shirt or however designed. Have fun with it.
