Announcing the Firefox 3 T-Shirt Design Contest
Adding more open source flavor to our design process is one of my top goals, so I’m excited to announce that we launched the Firefox 3 T-Shirt Contest today.
Our challenge to the Mozilla community (and beyond) is to create the coolest, most interesting Firefox 3-inspired t-shirt design (if you need inspiration, here’s some info on suggested themes). The winner will be determined by a public vote and will have his/her work sold in the Mozilla Store as our official Firefox 3 t-shirt (note: all Store proceeds benefit the Mozilla Foundation).
With Operation Firefox last fall, there were some complaints that it wasn’t international enough (due to some legal restrictions around liability issues), so we took that feedback and made sure the t-shirt contest would be more globally accessible. We’re excited to see the range of styles we get as a result.
There are plenty of other details to cover, but rather than list them all here I’ll just direct you to the official contest page set up on Spread Firefox by Tara Shahian. It should answer most questions, but definitely let us know if there’s anything we missed. The key thing to know for now is that design submissions are due on March 16th, so get those creative juices flowing and send us your best stuff!
