Hello folks! A quick update on our 8-Bit Design Contest – our team is working hard on finalizing the production process for our winners’ artwork, and as it turns out we’re going to need a teeeny bit more time to make that happen. So as of right now, we’re looking at making our announcement of these winners early next week. There won’t be a huge delay this time, it’s a-comin’… keep your eyes peeled here on our blog and at IGN.com early next week for the announcement!

Once again, we would like to congratulate all of our designers who won prizes in our Marvel/Avengers Design Contest, which was announced yesterday! You can see all of the winning tees HERE. But we’d also like to applaud the three winners in our side drawing who took the time to submit ratings on every competing Avengers tee – they will each win the design of their choice!

We encourage all of our customers to log in and rate every design in each of our t-shirt contests; at the completion of each competition, we will draw three winners from each group to receive a winning tee! Our Jem and the Holograms, Scott Pilgrim and My Little Pony 3 contests are currently OPEN for rating, so head over to each now and rate ALL designs in order to enter the drawings for free tee swag!

In the meantime, CONGRATS to the three winners of the Marvel/Avengers drawing who rated all the tees!:  Zack Meyman, Chad Smith, and Richard Webb! We’ll be in touch with you soon!

It’s now time for all you Marvel-ous fans out there to rate your favorite designs in our “Avengers” tee design contest! And guess what – there’s some swag in it for you, too!

You already know that our artists and designers are up for prizes, but did you know that simply by rating your favorite designs YOU could win, too? It’s true! Here’s how it works:

1. Register with welovefine.com in order to rate your favorite tees.
2. Rate ALL of the tees entered in the contest (Don’t just rate the ones you like best; give every design a 1 through 5, 5 being best.)
3. When the ratings period ends on March 19th, along with designating our winners, we will draw THREE individuals who registered ratings on every entry, and they’ll win a tee of their choice from the winning designs!

Register NOW and start rating – good luck!

Have you got a TRULY OUTRAGEOUS design you think would make a smashing addition to our Jem category? Now is your chance to submit it – and possibly win big cash, to boot!  Our Jem and the Holograms contest is now live – submit your artwork HERE! You’ll also find all the rules and dates at that link.

Many thanks to the one and only Samantha Newark, voice of Jem; and our pal Bethany Fong of Comics Alliance & Fashion Tips From Comic Strips for being our guest judges! And also to Shout Factory for supplying Jem DVDs as part of our prize packages!

Now GO ENTER! And GOOD LUCK!

"Walkies for Otto"

We are kick-starting a series of interviews with the grand prize winners of our design contests, in order to introduce you to some of these terrific artists and also so that they can impart some of their thoughts about what inspires them and makes for great t-shirt designs!  Here is our Q&A with Brian Kesinger, who won the grand prize in our Steampunk design contest with “Walkies For Otto” (now available on the site in both mens and womens sizes.) He has since also designed two beautiful steampunk GI Joe tees featuring Cobra Commander and The Baroness, too!  Here’s what he had to say…
