Sandwich Board Design Contest: Due 4/9/2011

[goofanader]

Rules for the Sandwich Board Contest are as follows:

• - There will be two winners! Each person gets one side of the board.
  - You don't have to be a student at Cal Poly or a member to enter!
  - One entry per person.
  - Entry can be either digital or paint as the final product. If paint, it's suggested that you come help us paint the picture as we may mess up your design.
  - Design is 2' x 3'. If digital, the final picture also needs to be 300dpi.
  - When presenting your design for voting, give it in the format of under 1000px if you're entering it digitally. We accept traditional entries as well.
  
  Design Must Include...
  • - Minna no Anime website (minnanoanime.org should be fine)
    - Minna no Anime name, room number, date, time, and brief description
    - Minna no Manga name, date, time, and brief description. The room number will be on the events page, but if you have a better idea, please explain it!
    - Space for a 8.5" x 11" paper detailing events happening at MnA
    - Space for a 8.5" x 14" paper showing this year's anime lineup
    • For the two above, we plan on laminating/buying waterproof paper and tucking them into small flaps in the design if it's a digital print. If it's paint, we'll do magnets. If you have a better idea, please explain it!
    - Optional: You may design how the Lineup and the Events pages will look like. The Events page should include the Minna no Manga room number.
    
    Here's an example of what should be on the board: http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y277/g ... esign2.jpg

If You Win

• You'll get your design on the sandwich board for posterity!
  If you're doing a digital entry, please be ready to tell us what font you used as we'll need it for the Lineup and Events pages as well as the MnM numbers. If you designed those as well, kudos to you! I'll take you out to a nice dinner or something. #notLikeADate #foodIsTheBestPrize

Test Out Your Picture's Resolution

• Use the Rasterbator to let your printer print out the picture in multiple pages. Note: The file size limit is 1mb, so make your picture a smaller resolution.
  Let me know in advance if you want to test it on the sandwich board, and I'll bring it to club on Thursday or Saturday. If you can't make those days, we can figure something out I'm sure.

If you have any questions, please post below or talk to me, Phyllis Douglas (the treasurer), at club.

Edits Made:

• 2/22/2011: All the rules and images posted
  2/27/2011: Changed the Minna no Manga room number to be included on the Events Page instead
  3/5/2011: Added a picture of the board itself in the "Design Should Include" section

- Minna no Manga name, date, time, brief description, and space for the room number.

• What we plan on doing is printing out numbers and laminating them, and then putting magnetic tape and making them stick to the board. If you have a better idea, please explain it!

I don't have a better idea, but that's just begging random people to rearrange things like room number.

I've changed the sandwich board rules so that the room number will be on the events page instead of on the board. The info, day, and time will still be the same, though.

Of course, if anyone still has a better idea on that, they can post their ideas, but that's what I've come up with? D:

Updated the rules to include a picture of the board by itself, not with a picture on it. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y277/g ... G_0660.jpg is the picture, but you can also find it in the section "Design Must Include".
