So I have to send them a picture related to given theme, right? If so, can it be black&white or does it have to be in-colour?

i think it's the editors choice if it's colored or not :)

here are some rules on designs:
"Designs must have 5 or less unique colors, no gradients, no photographs and no tiny halftones. Remember, black & white count. The color of the tee shirt does not count toward the five color limit."

No half-tones? Aren't we allowed to anti-alias? This will make it hard for those without Illustrator.
Also, with the winning design be the t-shirt your giving away in the screenshot contest? It'd be ironic if someone outside the US comes up with the winner, but can't win a copy of their own design.

you can also use the open source program "GIMP" instead of photoshop.
it's available on this site: http://www.gimp.org/

I wonder if we are allowed to use some official material (already existing Artwork/Screenshots) to mix/rearrange it for this contest or if we need to draw everything on our own.

I thought this was a thread about BioShock running on single-core processors :(

I thought this was a thread about BioShock running on single-core processors :(
C Kline has said on at least one occasion that the game takes heavy advantage of the threaded proc in the 360,so.... I would realy hope its multi threaded on the pc as well.It better be.I have a Core 2 Duo which is a dual core proc,capable of handling two threads at the same time.Chris was talking about the 360,like it was a super computer !
I really hope the game is as heavily threaded on the PC.If I can scrape together the cash,I plan to upgrade to a Q6400 or maybe even a Q6600 this summer,as I also do allot of video encoding as well as PC gaming.

This must have been a hard contest to judge. I didn't realize there were 155 entries and most of them look good enough for a tee.

it really, really was. i hope a lot of the highly rated ones end up being made tees of their own right. i wish i could have picked more than one.

i love threadless, so I've been watching this with a hawk's eye. The way they do things is that they'll have 3 or 4 of these "blank" Loves Threadless contests going on at once, then once they've ended, it goes up to a panel and gets printed. there were 2 others that had have their voting period expire before the bioshock one was done, and this the week the second one was posted. I expect the bioshock shirt to be announced next monday. I'm part of the newsletter, so I'll be sure to post back here when it's done.
