I'm in the process of going through all my PM's but as of right now I've messaged everyone who needs tweaks to their design. If I messaged you before and you're waiting on an answer from me I want to reassure you I'm working on it. There are several designs I have to send over to legal to see if they'll be okay for us to print. I have another group of designs we'll be sending over to the printer to make sure they're not too detailed to print clearly.
Please help me out by looking at your designs to make sure they fit the design guidelines, only have 4 colors, they include the FW Logo, and they are clear enough to print. I know the file sizes were confusing and I don't have an exact answer for you, but if your image is pixelated or blurry it won't print well.
The design submission ends at 12:00 Noon Central tomorrow October, 16th. The thread will lock at that point and future design resubmissions or entries will not be possible.
You will be entered into the drawing and will receive your badges after the voting period if your design is included in the voting gallery. If you are at all in question of your design qualifying for copyright or design issues, please resubmit something else that you know will meet all design guidelines. I don't want you to miss out on your free t-shirt, badge or the drawing for the gift certificate if there is something in question or I cannot get back to you before the thread locks tomorrow.
Alamo, please edit the filename of your post to include the missing "R"

Some questions before jumping into this.
1. Guess the PMS 376 is uncoated, right?
2. The 2 logos and the swirl sign are provided in JPEG format, which are RGB image files. There is some color shifting in these images causing color mismatch in PMS 376 and black. For example, PMS 376 U is (50, 0, 100, 0) when converted to CMYK. The green in the JPEG fles is (54.21,, 0, 100, 0) when placed onto a CMYK artboard. Black is not pure black as well.
3. When you do screen printing, what kind of black do you need? Thin black? Thick black?
4. Prefer a final CMYK file for printing?
Thanks.

I'm not the printer in this case, I just pass stuff on to have it printed. I'll pass these questions on but I'm not sure if we'll get a response from the printer before the design submission time-frame ends. I suggest you submit a clean design that isn't pixelated, meets the guidelines, includes the unaltered FW logo, and is only 4 colors max and you should be good to go. Good luck!
second design as my original did not qualify... ('black friday 2012' should go near top right chest, 'shop fatwallet.com style' could be either in the front or back)
When you say something like this in a thread that has 12 pages of designs, it's good to quote or reference what design(s) your talking about. Also, you have a plural pronoun referencing a singular noun. Singular - "I like the design" or plural - "I like those designs".
If you're referencing the 'Save at will' design, the reflection is shaded so will not qualify. The 'Black Friday 2012 Five Years Strong' a) won't load full screen (bad image file/upload) and b) probably won't make it because it sounds like FatWallet has only been around 5 years; it's been around over 11 years, but this is the 5th year of BF t-shirt designs. Earlier in the thread another design was said to be invalid because of the same reason.
