Hi bX'ers!
I woke up this morning with an idea, and I want to see it happen. Even I get a little bored of the same header on Barista Exchange at times, and I am wanting to change it, along with a little bit if style on the website. Instead of myself doing this on a weekend, I though I would reach out to the bX community and have a header design contest.
Anyone who is interested in designing a bX header can email me at baristaexchange@gmail.com and I will send you the bX logo and the fist icon for you to use in the artwork.
Here are the rules:
• Designs must be submitted by email by September 10th.
• You can submit up to 5 different header images.
• Header must be 955 pixels wide and 150-200 pixels tall.
• Designs must be submitted as .gif or .jpg
• Designs must use a variation of the Barista Exchange Logo, and hand holding portafilter.
• Additional text is discouraged beyond the logo, but can be submitted.
That's about it, and I encourage people to be creative.
I will be choosing 1 winner who's header design will go up for at least 1 month on the site, maybe longer. If there are multiple winning designs I will consider rotating to a new design, and this can become a bit more on going.
The first winner will receive a Barista Exchange T-Shirt in their size of choice (girls and guys shirts available) as well as a set of Espresso Parts Demitasse. Additional and future designs that are chosen will also receive a bX t-shirt and rotating prizes from bX sponsors.
The designers name will also appear in small print on the header image while the header design is up. ( I will add this )
All artwork that is used should be original or used with permission, i.e. photography, etc.
Thanks, and I hope this will be a fun project and can showcase some artistic abilities of our bXmembers. Again, email me at baristaexcahnge@gmail.com for more info if you are interested, and I can send the .eps logo to get you started.
Thanks,
Matt
