<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif">The Entomology Graduate Student Association (EGSA) would like to announce that we are starting our annual Entomology department t-shirt design contest!<br>
<br>
Every year we host a contest where students and faculty can submit entomology-inspired t-shirt designs and the winning designs will be printed on our next order of shirts. These t-shirts will be sold at all our events and conferences!
<u>There are two categories for submission: adult designs and youth designs.</u> Feel free to submit more than one design. Once the submission deadline passes, we all vote on two winners, one adult design and one youth design. Winning designs will be featured
in our annual newsletter and may also be printed on stickers or glasses/mugs. The person who created/suggested the winning design will get a free t-shirt and a $20 EGSA merch credit.<br>
<br>
<b>To submit your design please email me, Savana Becerra (<a href="mailto:sbece009@ucr.edu" target="_blank">sbece009@ucr.edu</a>), by <u>Nov. 10</u></b>. If you need additional support with your artistic abilities, no worries! Submit your ideas or rough designs
and we can have our team of talented artists clean up the design. We would love to see everyone's ideas!<br>
<br>
Here are some things to consider when designing:<br>
1. The fewer the colors, the easier and cheaper it is to print.<br>
2. For UCR and local events, people enjoy seeing UCR and Riverside on the shirt. When we take our shirts to conferences, people enjoy seeing more generalized shirts.<br>
3. Design in whatever medium is easiest for you. We can digitize hand-drawn designs.<br>
4. Designs approximately fit a standard sheet of printer paper (8.5x11) when printed. Sometimes very small details do not translate well when printing.<br>
5. If the design has a blank, empty, or transparent background it makes printing easier and makes the design look and feel less like plastic.<br>
<br>
If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out. Good luck everyone and have fun designing!<br>
