We have a few gifts for you to say thanks for helping us during the OLP. We know some of you are new to Spreadshirt we’d love to have you stick around longer as regular shopowners @ Spreadshirt and t-shirt design contributors @ la Fraise.

So exclusive to OLP participants who have yet to try our services you can have:

1. A free Spreadshirt premium shop. Yep register for a new shop and we’ll upgrade you to premium status until the end of the year as a thank-you (premium shops are €10 a month) for your involvement in the OLP. Mail olp@ with your account id and registered mail address.

Sign up here (EU)

2. 500 brouzoufs from laFraise (their loyalty currency, equivalent to approx €5 off a la Fraise shirt) for each new account created by an OLP participant. Again mail olp@ with your userid and e-mail address.

We’ve still plenty to come here (two more panel winners, more interviews, the CA feature, help us develop the two winning logos). But its winding down a little bit and i’m a little sad were breaking-up the nice party we had here. I was wondering if you’d be interested in keeping it going a little longer…..?

We have a nice open crowd, high number of comments and discussion and some really awesome designers. What if we moved the party over to la Fraise (the english part)? I’ve been talking about joining the la Fraise gang as a part-time blogger for a while now. Theres a small community of designers over there but nothing too established. I could continue as the host (alongside existing blogger Jouni) and we could start with a special collaborative design contest for you all. How does that sound?

A good recent example of what I have in mind is the Legion of Dooms great Robot Attack t-shirt containing robots from 20 different graphic designers. This was a recent winner at US based design contest Design By Humans.

Anyway you can make your feelings clear in the survey below:

So another record week, 337 designs in total. Thanks to all of you, we’re humbled by how many of you are here and contributing.

We’ll pick out some of the interesting entries later, but for now we’re planning wk4. This number of entries is causing some difficulties (positive difficulties ;). Firstly the really awesome designs can get hidden, its hard for everybody internally just to keep up with everything thats coming in. We would propose the following

a) A seperate category which only we can add to designs that we think totally nail the brief and are really great. We want to approve everything, and show it all together because thats the spirit of the OLP. So all designs would show by default as before, but we’d have an additional category “wk3 picks” which would show just those designs given two thumbs up by Spreadshirt.

b) We install voting. Just for a week as a trial. That way we can add highest rated, most voted etc to the sidebar and it might help filtering those designs you guys like best. The vote your score gets wont make or break your chances of getting on the shortlist, its just to help filter the designs that are popular community picks.
