Contest - Win A Free Kite! Be Creative!

Postby gumball » Thu Feb 23, 2006 4:52 pm

Even though the 2006 season hasn't started yet, we're looking for some help with our kite graphics for 2007. Click here to download a psd file with all the elements you need to be creative and come up with some killer graphics for our kites. If we use your concept, you win a free kite of your choice.

Rules... Each kite needs at least one BIG fish... kites do not have to be symetrical in design, go nuts and have fun and post jpgs of your designs here.

Contest ends April 30th, 2006.

No rules except each design needs to incorporate the fish. Have fun and use some funky colors - we'll be special ordering some far out colors for next year, so go nuts... neon, purple, pink, whatever... punk it out.

Adobe Photoshop

The GIMP should open it too (gimp.org, GNU image manipulation program)

Gummy,

What is the transfer process? Cut pieces of cloth to make a design or an entirely "printed" or "cnc'd" process with no limitations on design whatsoever?

It would help to know this because a photograph, for instance, might or might not work.

Just solid colors?

Fades?

Get my drift? Thanks

kites are cut and printed.


so colour schemes for the cloth are solid colours only, you can patch them how you like, but 1 million seams won't win you anything.

print colours, we currently stick to solid colours also, but have the potential to print dots. so gradients and fades are workable in single/ double colours.

photo's are beyond reproduction.




but have fun....be creative

In the history of kiteboarding there has never been a kite as free as the '06 Nemesis. It couldn't even be tied down by a bridle or lines let alone needing a bladder.

So, what kind of kite will the try-hards win here? Does it matter to best zombies?
I suppose as long as the price is right >> a kite is just a kite.

:lol2:
