We've run competitions in the past.
With most of them the prize was either a hosting plan or a domain or maybe even both.
We haven't given away non-hosting prizes in quite some time, apart from the hoodies a few weeks ago, so we thought it was about time that we did.
So this time round we're giving away a Wacom graphics tablet.
Sounds good, doesn't it?
So what's the catch?
Well the catch is that we're throwing down the gauntlet to the designers and creative types out there. We currently have some tshirts and hoodies over on Spreadshirt, however we're looking for something new and interesting. The domainer tshirts over here are more fun than the current set we have and if you like online tshirt shops I'm sure you'll have seen plenty of funky tshirts.
We want a design that reflects us, that people will want to wear and that people will actually like.
NB: As we will be using the design for tshirts and other promotional gear the designer must assign us all rights on the chosen winning design
If anyone has any questions or queries about the competition please feel free to ask.
We'll run the competition for the next two weeks.
UPDATE March 30th 2009: We're extending the deadline by a further week

Sounds great.
I'm in!
Ooohhh! I'm so down with this. Count me in too :-)
Are you putting up the blacknight logo for use in the designs?
I'll dig it out and make it available - sorry for not doing so earlier
I think we have it in Illustrator format.
Are there any technical rules to comply in this designing contest?
Exsistent Blacknight logo must be included on T-shirt or not?
Design is for front shirt side or back also?
Contest is ending on March 16. + 2 weeks?
Shirt must represent Blacknight company?
Thanks for answers in advance.
Which Wacom model? Bamboo, Cintiq or something in between?
I'll take up your gauntlet — I just love a challenge!
@Roro - we were asking designers which model they'd like to have, but we didn't get a clear answer :) Which model would you want?
@Doreen - the more the merrier
Where do you submit designs?
Jimi
You can either submit links to them in the comments or email them to management@blacknight.com
Thanks
Michele
I'm interested... sorry where's the blacknight illustrator file available from? I could do with a new tablet, I'm actually wearing through the plastic pad on mine.
