Hello list-mates,
Thanks for your feedback! :-) I have worked a little bit more on some t-shirt designs.
Classic design: http://www.javierllorente.com/tmp/conference_tshirt.png
Modern designs: http://www.javierllorente.com/tmp/conference_tshirt3.png http://www.javierllorente.com/tmp/conference_tshirt4.png http://www.javierllorente.com/tmp/conference_tshirt5.png
I like conference_tshirt5.png, Javier. Good proposal.
How ever, I went through the other drafts on the ml and came to the point, that I should give you some production related background informations.
1. We are not going to print the shirts with a classical CMYK method. We are going to use a plotter based technique, what means, we have a small range of collard film (14 or 16 colors). The print house cut the motives out of this film and iron them to the shirt.
This means: 1. every extra color and motive cost extra money and we are not M$. 2. the minimum size of something is about 0.5 - 1mm. It should not be to delicate. 3. Gradients don't work. 4. Photorealistic things don't work as well.
Had a conversation about last night with javier
2. Stay with the KISS (Keep it simple and Stupid) rule and the openSUSE Branding Guidelines [1] 3. Try to use max. 3 Colors [2]. E.g. Green, White, Black (Shirt). And please don't combine red and green.
This are just few "hints" from my pragmatic side. How ever, I saw good and interesting drafts and look forward to see the final version! :-)
Best,
Robert
