View Full Version : Need $100 of parts? Maximal needs a t-shirt design

If you’re artistic then we’re looking for you. Maximal is in need of a new design for t-shirts and , well we’re better at fabbing parts than we are at coming up with some kick-ass t-shirt designs. We’re not expecting charity though as the designer of the chosen design will be given a $100 Maximal gift certificate to spend on whatever they need.
It needs to mention our “Street, Strip, Track” slogan while also using one of our logos, either our oval design (http://maximalperformance.com/pics/misc/MaximalPerformance_logo.jpg) or our old-school “straight” logo (http://maximalperformance.net/pics/logos/logo5.gif). Other than that it’s up to you to come up with what you think will work best.
We will need it in a format that will work with our printing company; typically this means it has to be a vectored image. We also reserve the right to ask for small changes to be made to the winning design so make sure that’s possible. When designing keep in mind that printers charge per color so try to keep them to a minimum. Of course we own the image also.
Entries need to be in by December 6th and a winner will be selected by the 10th. Please let me know if you have any questions.

How do we submit, by email? Here's my very rough concept:

since we're not being secretive, here's the one I submitted earlier today,

I realize it's not on a Tshirt, but I didn't have a shirt vector handy at the time.

both are great, try swapping the colors in the second one's pedals to red/yellow/green, and see what that looks like. Might be too busy with the colors, but just a thought...

Ill give it a about even i get off work today, are you think the font changed to RYG or the pedals themselves, and go with like black font.
What do you think about flipping the holes in the bottom picture gas pedal so they go 3-2 instead on 2-3, i didn't want it to look like i just copied the brake and clutch pedal over, but my OCD is yelling at me to fix it lol

Hmmm the holes in the pedals maybe. You might have to see which works better. Might get too busy quick.

There are actually a few I really like so I'm set there. Just won't get to them until Monday so figured if someone was procrastinating there's no reason to keep them out. :)

I was hoping that I'd find time to put together another design besides the one on fb, but I never did get the chance. :(

flipped the pedal holes around on the bottom of the gas, I don't know that I like it better.

Was just kind of a simple design I put together using just the text. Didn't get the chance to play around with any images or fancy graphics or anything.

Good job on yours, BTW. I like the one with the pedals.

All great looking shirts! I particularly like Foxy's and J-Grooves. I'll definitely purchase a shirt whenever the final design(s) becomes available

Not yet. Was going to decide by tomorrow but I might take the weekend to think it through, there are tons of good ones I got here and other forums/Facebook.

Sorry guys, holiday rush on the business and personal side has been killing me.
Anyways, I sent a PM to the winner and once I hear back from them on a couple things I'll announce who it is to everyone. I appreciate all the submissions and I'm holding onto them so if, sometime down the road I need a new design I have one.
