Last year's scarf design contest was a huge success. You've probably seen these around:

And you've also probably heard that we're running another contest, so I figured I'd start a thread in case anyone had any questions, or wanted to get opinions about their work. The submission deadline is December 20th, and after that we'll shortlist a few scarves in each category and hold a public vote so you can choose what gets made.

Also very useful to download would be the ISA identity pack. You may use these materials in your designs.

In all honesty, even a program like MS Paint works because the resolution of a scarf is so low. If that doesn't make any sense to some of you start talking to friends that have used graphics programs before.

I interned in the FO for a little while and trust me they are so dumb had they payed off the refs they probably would have presented them one of those huge checks during halftime on the field.

Which one was yours? I can't remember, although I did like them all. It was either the black bar scarf or the '8' scarf. I think it was the black bar scarf.

Speaking of which, I finally got my hands on one in a drunken rampage and I may never return it to you Ciro.

It was indeed the black bar scarf. I'm sure he would have just traded it to you for some sardines and mustard.

Do you mean the actual pack or the individual files? They are .eps files, so you will need a compatible program like Illustrator to open them.

If anyone wants to make a pack of .jpegs, I could post that as well.
