DBH 10K Contest



I got the email yesterday announcing the Design by Humans Annual 10k Contest and immediately thought to myself — I would love to enter! Immediately my mind began thinking of possible themes, ideas, and concepts, what should I do.

After sleeping on it, I still had no concepts for a design. Then an idea came to me — let’s make the conceptual process a collaborative effort. How much better could the idea be if I tapped into the creative collective around me? I know a bunch of really rad people that have great ideas all the time.

So, here’s the plan:
1. I’m soliciting you — my collective friends and colleagues – for ideas, concepts, themes, etc for a shirt to enter into the Design By Humans 10k Contest. Post your ideas below. Read what others are suggesting. And together we’ll pick the best option.

2. From there I’ll jump into design — I’ll chronicle the process with pics (and maybe video) of my sketches, screenshots (on my blog and dribbble) and get your feedback every step of the way.

3. Let the Voting begin — once it’s ready, I’ll submit it to DBH and call again on the community to logon, vote, comment, and spread the word. Can we do this?

What’s in it for you? Other than teaming up and giving your best ideas away? A look into the apparel design process with a collaborative twist. In the (slim) chance we win, we’ll come up with some prizes (shirts, cash, etc) to raffle off to those who participated.

The deadline for submissions is August 22nd — so it’ll be a quick process. In the immortal words of my favorite May client — “Time is of the essence!”

Should be fun! You in?

The Birth of May



I wanted to take a brief moment to introduce May. Those of you stopping by may not realize that I (Garth Humbert / IamGarth) have morphed my freelance life into a full-fledged gig. I’ve officially launched May (hellomay.com) and will be directing the majority of my resources and attention over there. IamGarth.com will remain up and active with the occasional blog post gracing it’s pages.

So, feel free to poke around here, but definitely don’t leave without heading over and checking out May. Peace.
