Contest Brief

Hello Fellas,

I would like to celebrate my anniversary with my boyfriend by making a poster that commemorates our love. I have already thought of the basic concept design for the poster and have attached my sketch to this post. I need a professional who can add some color, emotion, and life to this concept design. I'm looking for a retro or vintage type design so I've also attached a few different images to give you an idea of the style I want to see.

I will accept EPS and PSD file formats. I plan on printing, framing, and gifting your work!

Thank you kindly,

Bertha Forever!

    Thank you guys for all your hard work. You are all very talented but I had to pick one design in the end and it was Jamieludo. If any of you have any ideas how we can salvage your designs so that they are not wasted, please let me know. Thank you everyone again :)

    Thank you guys for all your hard work!! I really appreciate everyone pitching in such good spirit. I thought about submitting my photo along with my lover's but I think they wouldn't like that so I just had to abstain from making it public. This is okay since I think a lot of your design are so great!!

    I contacted Freelancer to see if there was a way from to award smaller prizes to second, third, and fourth places in return for the artwork but their silly website/system prohibits me from giving out smaller prize amounts. So I can only award one designer $150 and the rest nothing. In many ways this is ridiculous because I lose out and can't keep the artwork that many of you have worked so hard on and you can't also get, at least, a little bit of money. Very unfortunate...but I want everyone to know that a lot of you are really great designers!!

    Thank you everyone for all your hard work. I can see that a lot of you guys are really talented!!
    I'm saving my 5-star rating for that special artist who can make that perfect design. The great thing for everyone submitting their work is that I've now guaranteed my payment and you all still have 5 days to blow me away ;-)

    Seteki, how do I privately submit photos of me and my lover so that you can work with them?

    Provided that the my concept design has more horizontal length than vertical I think that the horizontal format would be more appropriate. I think that so far the user "mzovko" has done the best job incorporating my concept with the retro/vintage style. I have told him it still requires more work but I think what he has done should give everyone a good idea of what I'm looking for. I intend to be very open about my likes & dislikes so that everyone can get a fair chance at succeeding and I can get the best job done. If you have more questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Thank you ;-)

    Thank you. Perhaps the maximum poster size would be something like 16X20 inches.
