WTF Convention Program Book Cover Contest

We are having a Cover Contest! Here are the rules:

  • New art only. Only one entry per person.
  • Black & white or greyscale (no colour). Remember that printing can wash out some fine details.
  • Size: 8.5” x 11”, no bleeds.
  • Format: 600dpi uncompressed TIFF. The submission (finished or sketched) should be 150dpi max in any common image format.
  • Must include the words "What The Fur 2011”, "Program Book - Livre de Convention” and "June 3-5 juin”.
  • Should try to show the theme of the convention: Pirates vs Ninjas, and Furry. It can be serious or humorous, but should not be cluttered to the eye.
  • It need not be a finished work, but any sketches must be of a finished quality, with all desired elements represented.
  • Deadline is Midnight of Saturday, April 24, 2011 (Eastern time).
  • Send entries to [email protected] with "Cover Contest” in the subject line.
  • The winning entry will be chosen on clarity of image, copy legibility and overall attractiveness as a program book cover. Some small editorial changes to strengthen the work may be needed.
  • Once selected, the winner will need to have the final artwork ready by the end of MAY 15, 2011.
Illustrations

We accept B&W spot illustrations as place fillers or programming illustrations, line art preferred; these will be small or very reduced, so please no fine details. (No full-page illustrations.) Send them to [email protected] with the subject line “Illustration”.


Illustrations do not need to match the convention's theme, however it is preferred.

Stories and Poetry

Do you have a small story you'd like to share? A poem or other work of short literature you'd like included in the book?

Send an email to [email protected] and we'll see what we can do.

It is preferred that the submission match our theme, but so long as it is furry or anthro in nature and PG-13 it will be considered for inclusion.
