So we’re a little late with Schwag Friday, as I’ve been busy clawing my way out from under the entries avalanche (400 now this week!). But as we did already with Computerlove and Frank Pillers prize we’ll reveal a new panel prize every Friday.This one we’ve already talked about, its the tshirt lovers dream, a whole year worth of t-shirts! Its the laFraise.com community prize. How can you win 100 or so stunning t-shirts? Well you can read the full post for starters.
This prize is exactly what it says on the tin, the community prize, we want to thank those people that makes OLP a great place to waste those idle hours minutes of the day. We have interesting discussions, share opinions and hopefully all see things in a different light. Your comments and suggestions give invaluable feedback to the designers and us, they shape future submissions and the overall logo we’ll choose. So this prize will thank someone who makes a real contribution to the OLP community, and you don’t have to enter a logo to win this prize!
So maybe it will be one of our top commenter’s, pascalphilly is racing away with the entries feedback, he’ll hit 100 comments pretty soon:

Or it could be for something less obvious like promotion, someone such as Custom T-shirt Talk who has repeatedly covered the contest and produced those great weekly collages of all the entries (we actually use these internally). Here is wk3’s
Anyone that makes a memorable contribution, might win a lot of shirts. Who would you nominate for this award so far?
What will you win?
One of every shirt they print for a whole year! It will be around 100 shirts! What would you even do with that many shirts? I guess you can give up washing for starters, and bribe favours from your friends with your new cotton currency.
About laFraise
laFraise http://www.lafraise.com/ is europe’s largest t-shirt design contest. Its run very similarly to the OLP, each week you submit tshirt designs which are rated by the community. A few designs each week get turned into a limited 500 shirt run, and sold for €22. If you’re having fun here, you might want to try your hand at designing shirts as well (although there are plenty of previous lafraise winners already part of the OLP community). If your shirt gets printed you’ll earn €1,000, and kudos.
Lately theres been a computer game theme going on, check out these designs:
Bubble Bobble on the left was designed by Jebs, who has already submitted 7 or 8 designs to the OLP.
What a great opportunity for someone! I am glad people like the collages of Spreadshirt logos. But most importantly who is the lucky fellow in the picture who got to be buried in all those t-shirts? :)
Matt
That would be Christian Bale look-a-like Mr Kops, OLPs biggest fan in our IT team. Yep it is a great opportunity :)
What an awesome price - Thanks for suggesting me :)
Seems nobody wants to suggest someone cause everyone would rather suggest himself to swim in a bunch of great shirts:)
Bubble bobble rocks big time!
Thanks adam and pascalphilly for your messages about my Bubble Bobble :) ( i didn’t received it yet, but i’m excited to wear it)
Yeah Jebs great job man. Why dont you do that in english, that would reach more people maybe? But its still nice, the image speaks for itself obviously. You know what also rocks? You guys still know “Giana Sisters”?
well pascalphilly, right now, it’s too late :) but i agree, in english, it would have been nice. Anyway, i checked Gianasisters, i am a big videogames lover, but this one, i didn’t know about it, it’s incredible how near to mario it is, it was designed after or before?
Jebs, I think that was first but I m not sure. It looks way older at least, and it was so much fun back then! Changing discs in between the levels and stuff is so wicked;)
well, well well - nice topic :)
gianna sisters was way *after* mario (mario I guess around eraly 80s) mario actually had a short appearance in donkey kong which was released late 70s .. gianna sisters was around 87 or so, and a obvious ripoff (I only played it on amiga) -> nintendo sued the makers of gianna sisters for copyright violation, also look: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Giana_Sisters - but gianna sisters was that popular, because they ported it to home computers …
btw. bubble bobble was KING, nice done jebs. I hope I receive my shirt tomorrow :D
Woops, got no idea of computer games obviously. I thought it was only donkey kong where mario was seen before giana Sisters. But anyway that game was fun!
