Jason English
America’s Next Top T-Shirt Designer
by Jason English - April 16, 2008 - 1:26 PM

In today’s newsletter, we kicked off our second t-shirt slogan contest. Here’s how to enter:

1) Come up with a brilliant mental_floss t-shirt idea.

2) Send said idea to flossytees@gmail.com before next Friday, April 25th.

3) Wait patiently. (We’ll notify the winners via email by May 4th, but won’t announce the chosen shirts until floss artists Terri Dann and Winslow Taft have designed them.)

Winners will receive $125. They’ll also be the first recipient of their new shirt.

Our last contest resulted in some wildly popular shirts (pictured above). If you need inspiration, check out all the shirts in the mental_floss store. In fact, all shirts are 15% off. Just use the code ’sale’ during checkout.

[That sale is over, but if you use the code 'survey,' you can get the same discount through Sunday, April 27.]

Can’t wait to see what you guys come up with. Good luck!

  1. I don’t have any clever ideas, but I’d love it if someone came up with something good about Roman or Greek mythology.

    “Aphrodite had Venus envy.”?

    “Cupid pro Quo- Love for a fee”?

  6. Hey folks,
    Thanks for the great ideas but don’t forget to e-mail them to flossytees@gmail.com instead of posting them here. We don’t want our rival, Mind-Floss, to steal any of your brilliant ideas.
    Thanks!
    Will

  8. Haha I love the ones in the comments. Are we supposed to come up with pic-a-tures to go with the slogans too? Or do you hand the winners over to an artist?

  10. Just slogans. The winning ideas will end up in the capable hands of our legendary designers Terri Dann and Winslow Taft.

  11. Can we submit multiple ideas in one email or should they be multiple emails?
