i think it’s their… 10kth tee? No ways?
10 000 / 365 = … 30 years? no ways…
but damn sounds really exciting :)
Maiswann said: Is this the T-shirt design that wins $10 000?
Yep! It’s the big one.
It’s clearly a 10 km run with chains and bats. The winner gets to answer declined submission emails for free tee shirts. Time to polish the formal whompin’ chains!

Now where’s the carnage in that? I have a ton of bills to pay now, can you guys front me the cash until the contest? I’ll make good stuff.

Thanks Oddeti. Yeah, this year’s DBH 10K will be formatted a little differently from last year’s, but that link will give you an idea of what we did to celebrate our 1st year anniversary last year.
zebra4 said: Are the tagged ones the ones that have one in the past?>
That’s right. Collisiontheory took the grand prize last year and the other 4 were runners up.
Can’t wait to see the entries this year!
yes! i love running!
on a more serious note, is there a theme for this or is it just anything we want?
A design that has been entered but doesn’t win the contest can it be printed afterwards, as a normal winning design?
I can only dream of that kind of cash.
Almost the entire top-10 was printed eventually last year. I have to presume other former 10K designs were too, but I cannot vouch for that, since I don’t work at DBH/remember every 10K design

oké thanx ;)
@Wis: There was an opening 5k contest when the site first opened. No other 10k besides the last one though.

dude me too… i can only dream of that!
$10k is more than i make in like a year!
i actually lived off of $12k for two years with minimal working and paying for college… i dont know how i did it haha!
seriously though… $10k would pay for like a years rent.

I like Rocky Road :)
thestray said: I’m going to win and buy ice cream for everybody on DBH!
when I recieve mine, I can suck it out the paperboard-package
yes! this time i’m actually going to submit something.
will there be a limit to number of entries per person?
too soon to ask?
thestray said: I’m going to win and buy ice cream for everybody on DBH!
hell yeah :)
omfg… will there be a topic?
Do they only consider designs already printed or is it a fresh comp from scratch??

was wondering this too.

Sounds interesting. I can’t wait to hear the full details of the contest.
I missed the last one but I plan on making a big splash this time! (perhaps I’ll get my 1st elusive print?)
I’m actually concerned about the fairness of the voting system…last year it was pretty straight foward most votes = win which sounds great on paper but when you consider the average DBH artist going up against guys with HUGE fans bases it seem a little biased IMO. I wonder if anything is being done about that?

do you guys think they would really print someone for the first time? I’m also in this position, I’ll try my best in the contest, but I expect somebody well known to win… not one of us new guys…
just look at the winners … I mean.. mathiole? jimiyo? who can compete against guys with 7-12 years of expirience? I’m fucking excited about what the big guys will come up with :)
Yeah… I think I’ll join this. But I’m not expecting to win… I’m not much competition against people like collisiontheory, mathiole, a_mar_illo, jublin, or jimiyo. But I’ll still make something, I still have a chance even if the odds are pretty slim. Haha… ya never know…
Kaysetoaster said: just look at the winners … I mean.. mathiole? jimiyo? who can compete against guys with 7-12 years of expirience? I’m fucking excited about what the big guys will come up with :)
honestly I’m not intimidated in the slightest,I welcome the challenge even if I don’t win I’ll at least have put out some great work. I think you guys are selling yourselves short.
iQuitt you’ve got some kick ass designs and DBH has chosen you before why not now?
screw fear! step your skills up! 10K or bust baby!
In the Tennessee Powerball Lottery, the stakes sometimes the prize is millions of dollars+.
For those that are negative nancy about winning this competition, why don’t you collab with another artist? That’s still 5K each.
Oooooh this again! Good stuff… wonder if I can compete with the big shots though… hope its not too much of a popularity contest.
Can you enter a design that is currently up for voting? And is it possible to see all of the top 10 entries? Inquiring minds want to know…

I dunno iquitt I think you are right up there with the best
WinterArtwork said:

that’s the spirit!
and also, agree in don’t doing a popularity contest this time, not shure how to do, but judge the designs only by the votes sounds unfair i guess

biotwist said: collisiontheory for the win. i dont know with that but it most likely will happen
I seriously doubt that. It seems unfair for one person to win it 2 years in a row.
I think they should take out the popular vote this year and just invite big name judges to decide the winner. Or they could split the criteria into popular vote and judges’ choice. So for example, popular votes only account for 50% and the judges’ score account for the remaining 50%. Just some ideas.

sounds great
There is so talented artist here that the choice will be very hard, even for judges. Agree with Iquitt for me, but no mater, … keep our dreams is the only important thing in this world !

Haha! Thanks. But I still feel that I have a lot more things to learn.
So I was wondering… if you submit and don’t win the 10k prize, do you still have a chance of winning the ‘shirt of the day’? Cause I’d like to enter this contest but I’d also like to enter the regular one as well.
I wonder what the submission specs will be, if its another free-for-all “if you can create it, we will find a way to print it” kind of deals, or if they will be more strict with their guidelines.
mstrglen said: hopefully they don’t screw up on the first place print again ;)
What do you mean?
I want to play. this is going to be very exciting to see where my fellow critics will place my designs. thats a lot of money and the best designs should win. no matter who drew them. i wish everyone luck and the collaboration idea sounds like a winner, especially when you don’t have as much experience. which i don’t. thanks DBH for the opportunity to pay off some bills. lol
iQuitt said:mstrglen said: hopefully they don’t screw up on the first place print again ;)What do you mean?
CollisionTheory’s print seemed to have been missing a screen, or in any case didn’t look like his submission because of a printing mishap.
wowie zowie. i need to start checking designbyhumans more often… er… again…. i’ll also have to dust off my wacom and pencils and imagination… i’ve been awol for far too long.
best of luck to everyone, i can’t wait to see what people come up with.
and for the people that don’t think they have a chance against jimiyo, a_mar_illo, and the rest…. who knows? who cares? just create some crazy radical stuff. money for t-shirt designs = pretty cool, being inspired by all the amazing printed and unprinted artists that submit stuff = f’n awesome.
sweet! i think i’ll try and come up with something this year. no more goofin around.
I think you’re missing the overall point if you just say “oh well I’m not gonna win it.”
Sure, it’s ten thousand dollars. But imagine the incredible works of art that would not have been produced if it were not for this contest. Isn’t that the real idea behind this site? Advancing the field of art, regardless how unconventional the medium may be?
By just entering your best work, you’ve won the contest. The ten thousand is just an added bonus to the lucky person. Think of it this way: if we had not been enticed with ten thousand dollars, would you really expect such a turnout of amazing designs as we had last year?
So I challenge you all: make your designs worth the ten thousand, but not for the ten thousand. Do not get lost in the race for riches, but rather get lost in the beauty of your work.

Uh huh, whatever, I want that f*cking money! Hahaha.
thestray said: Uh huh, whatever, I want that f*cking money! Hahaha.
lol, truth.
Damn I already finished a design for this… I guess I should just wait until July to submit. I assume an artist could enter multiple times?
It’s my understanding that artist can submit multiple entries.
Bring it!!
This year I’ll be sure to push the right button.
hmm what to do.
I have been looking forward to this all year. Good luck everyone.
can someone explain? What’s tht about? I’m new here.. i can’t see what do you mean by 10K.
help?
Cheers
Kitti
Kitti – ignore all this, it’s just a e-mail scam deal, they will eventually ask for your bank account number and Bam 10K outa your account the next business day!
haha just kidding.
Correct me if I’m wrong but you submit your best work and then spend the next few weeks hoping and praying for a miracle print worth $10,000 dollars. I’m sure it’s life changing, AJ can attest to that.
I didn’t enter last year, main reason, I was sure I wouldn’t even have a chance, but only thing that did was make sure I didn’t have a chance. So this year, it’s gonna be different, I got an idea this morning and I’m gonna do it up right, and if it doesn’t do well and we can sub more then one then I’m gonna bring it again.

Looking forward to see that idea :P
Ooooooh snaps! So I presume there is solely 1 winner, then, because 10,000 McDoubles is a LOOOOT of dough… or 20,000 tacos at Jack in the Box… or 60,000 Chicken McNuggets… I’m hungry.
I’m ready, I’ve got a great idea locked and loaded, and I’m going to work on it all month.
in whispery tough guy voice: Let’s do this!
well, my wife’s a teacher and she just got laid off, so yeah, you’ll be seeing something from me ;-)
hey guys even if u dnt win the main prize if uv still got rad designs u could still win t of the day
i love u
Well we all know it’ll go to Collision Theory ;D assuming he enters and i’m sure he will
MichaelWood said: Well we all know it’ll go to Collision Theory ;D assuming he enters and i’m sure he will
Nnnnnnnope!
whats these?.. $10,000 for the winning design?
awesome.. r u guys ready to win?.. hell yeahh…
MichaelWood said: Well we all know it’ll go to Collision Theory ;D assuming he enters and i’m sure he will
this is why a most votes scenario wont work…(blind fan boy devotion is a powerful thing)
CT is great but things have changed since last year but I’m sure whatever he does will most likely be printed somewhere down the road since DBH adores his style
MichaelWood said: Well we all know it’ll go to Collision Theory ;D assuming he enters and i’m sure he will
i doubt it – he won last year so i doubt DBH would chose the same person to win both years.
You guys shouldn’t bother with this. Or with anything else, for that matter. Eventually we’re all going to die anyway.
Stop being wusses =P
What’s this all about? I can’t find any info, just this page, but it tells you nothing?
Doco said: What’s this all about? I can’t find any info, just this page, but it tells you nothing?
A 10,000 dollar design contest coming next month. We’ll find out the specifics later, this is just to generate some buzz and excitement I believe.

I really like the fact there is no theme. It’s fun to know you can do exactly what you want!

Of course you don’t! NONE OF YOU DO! MWAAA HA HA HA HAAAAA!!!
