Graphic Design Contests

**The Real Me** · 10:52 PM

Hello,

I need a flyer made to give out to the schools. The flyer can be grayscale because I don't have a colored printer so if you design it like that it will print better.

I need it to say that Heal the Kids a non-profit charity for young people and is offering the following free services to students K-12 with low income.

School Supplies
Tutoring Services
Back Packs

Please also include our address, email, logo, URL, Phone, and Fax.

I would like for the flyer to be professional but child-like also.

HERE YOU GO.

pigbait - you need to link to a higher res version of that (maybe zipped) - that's only 72ppi and it's going to look quite poor when it's printed

oh and if you haven't , then use the highest quality level for the jpeg

dave please give it a go

Is this reopened? If so, what is the prize amount? Maybe I'm just not seeing it.

Davemies - I've entered many contests and as a general rule, you don't want to post a high resolution version of your entry. That way if the contest holder plans to swipe it and run, they get a crappy version. If your design is chosen and the contest holder pays....THEN you send the high resolution file.

"Prize: The satisfaction of doing something for a charity" it says at the top

that's a good point, of course i mean that the file for printing needs to be like that

and seeing as pigbait has done one i think i'll leave it this time.

I think this is a free contest i just didnt post a 300 dpi jpeg cause it will be 5 times the size of the one there if "the real me" wants it I'll give up the high res one.

"wow... u dont want to help a charity? Money is the root of all evil."

wow that's a bit black and white! jackieh didn't say that they didn't want to help - they were just asking about the contest details.

they didn't say they didn't want to do it or otherwise because of money.
and if they didn't want to do it for free (for whatever reason, like time etc) then that's fine: to imply that they are only interested in money and in some totally materialistic way is rude and ungrateful.

i think, The Real Me, you need to be a bit more charitable in your approach
