May be a dumb question, but should I get a DBH account and post some tees there? Can any members here tell me if it's worth it? Like have you found the winnings to be fair or the printing quality to be good? I'm a DBH noob so bare with me. What are the pros and cons from your experience? 2008-05-26T01:35:05-04:00 101 2008-04-23T00:49:35-04:00 true 0 2793 false false 2314 253 1 2009-11-20T23:57:52-05:00 1748 Your Finley. You will win. Just do it.

Each week the five previous SOTD winners go head to head for the Shirt of the Week (SOTW) prize of $1000 cash. Then the four SOTW winners compete for the final prize of $1750 ($1500 cash & $250 store credit) and the coveted trophy and title of Shirt of the Month. All in all, a winning design that goes all the way can win up to $3500! plus you can earn more depending on # of sales the shirt gets. http://www.designbyhumans.com/win/rockstar/ It has one of the best payouts for a Competition site. get going. http://www.designbyhumans.com/win/submit/ oh and they can do this too http://www.designbyhumans.com/win/design_101 I guess you could have just read that yourself at DBH huh. Doh!! 2793 Post 2008-04-23T01:00:12-04:00 72954 506 2008-04-23T01:03:49-04:00 so actually the absolute most you could get from one deign is $8,500! sweet moses! 2793 Post 2008-04-23T01:02:10-04:00 72956 1876 2008-04-23T01:02:10-04:00 fuck DBH, i created an account, submitted a design (which included saving the fucking file in like 5 sizes) and nothing. the design did not get posted and i got no email from DBH saying anything. lame. 2793 Post 2008-04-23T01:03:22-04:00 72957 1106 2008-04-23T01:03:22-04:00 Yeah I think I'm mostly concerned with if they print it, the shirt is "theirs" and I can't print it myself down the line. If anyone would want to buy it, it would have to be through them. And do they print their logo on it? And I know their limit says 8 colors, but do you think I could post these on there and it would be ok? http://emptees.com/tees/159-bold-is-beautiful http://emptees.com/tees/1162-maggot-folk http://emptees.com/tees/429-close-your-eyes And if you win, how do you send them the hi res file? Layered? JPG? Do you have to tell them the Pantones? How is the printing quality? They do all over prints and jumbo prints right? 2793 Post 2008-04-23T01:03:56-04:00 72959 253 2008-04-23T01:03:56-04:00 fo shizzle. if anything, it will get more exposure for goMedia pros: 1. good exposure. 2. decent pay if you win. 3. you are whats represented there. THE ARTIST. so all you are building is credibility and a fanbase, which seems to build on itself. i have a theory that if you can maintain an identity as an artist, and your style, much like a business, people will come to you for YOU, not your business services. eventually i want internet famez so people will come to me to ask me to do my style... like how you say people come to you for Affliction type work... they will come for FINLEY! this could be a basis for an apparel line of your own once a fan base is built. 4. why not? i bet you have some rad designs sitting around that would defintely get some major play. and im sure DBH guys wouldnt mind having a jaggernaut like you show up. its more creed to their business. 5. you have an army of 10,000 greeks who are willing to wage war with you! 6. they are not afraid to experiment with non traditional print techniques. cons 1. each contest site seems to have its own style. sometimes you might have to mold to their styling, but not always. 2. they have a seemingly random way of choosing designs to be printed, so votes do not necessarily equate to print. 3. losing, to something you think is shit, sometimes is tough to take. let's become famous Finley. im waging my own war too. here's an interesting article about becoming a successful artist... it makes it seem easy... although we all know it takes mucho work but THIS IS SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRTA! http://www.kk.org/thetechnium/archives/2008/03/1000_true_fans.php 2793 Post 2008-04-23T01:08:16-04:00 72963 2865 2008-04-23T01:11:16-04:00 DBH have been awesome, they can pretty much print anything and have a great range of specialty inks/foils etc. They only print their logo on the inside at the back. You can provide a 300dpi psd (i think you can provide the pantones) and yup they can do jumbo and all over. Your work is right down their alley, you'd be sure to do well. 2793 Post 2008-04-23T01:09:10-04:00 72964 2967 2008-04-23T01:10:13-04:00 Thanks Jimiyo, I'll submit some things, see what happens.

And they have access to pretty much any specialty printing method you can think of, except all-over cut-and-sew.

But time keeps passing and we aren't getting any closer to printing them. Two key problems keep arising: 1.) Large upfront cost to print those damn designs 2.) Can't find a reliable printer that's up for the challenge So I think I'll try DBH and see how it goes. 2793 Post 2008-04-23T01:31:44-04:00 72994 253 2008-04-23T01:31:44-04:00 definitely worth it, finley. their print and shirt quality is top notch. the only con i guess is that when you win, you can't use your winning credits to pay for the shipping (if you're outside US). 2793 Post 2008-04-23T01:40:18-04:00 72997 2011 2008-04-23T01:40:18-04:00 herman is a DBH superstar he should know hehe. go submit your stuff man although those designs you posted might be too difficult for a jumbo print. most of their jumbo prints are one to two color. i haven't seen them print full color as a jumbo. 2793 Post 2008-04-23T02:33:16-04:00 73029 1259 2008-04-23T02:33:16-04:00 I will vote for shiz! 2793 Post 2008-04-23T02:34:01-04:00 73030 3005 2008-04-23T02:34:01-04:00 I think it's worth it.

I still have a chance to win another $1500 I was a little miffed because they changed the placement, honestly I think to the detriment of the shirt. But I mean, the design belongs to them now so they'll do with it what they will. I'm not really a fan of the shirt colors they offer for printing though, they're all pretty subdued. But yeah my own shirt came in the mail yesterday and despite its changes it still looks effin sweet. Everyone whos seen it and doesn't know it's my design has been pumped over it 2793 Post 2008-04-23T15:03:00-04:00 73329 2712 2008-04-23T15:03:00-04:00 *ahem* http://www.designbyhumans.com/vote/detail/8362 2793 Post 2008-04-23T15:08:55-04:00 73332 1146 2008-04-23T15:08:55-04:00 <blockquote><cite>Godmachine said:</cite> oi, jaynajajnayarayhjaman help.</blockquote> what! 2793 Post 2008-04-23T15:11:12-04:00 73335 2712 2008-04-23T15:11:12-04:00 do you have to use there tee template or can you use your own? where is the 'submit a tee button'?? see what i mean about terrible navigation and a messy site do the pics have to be 72 dpi?
