T-shirt Design Brief
We need a conference tshirt design to be used in Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney in Australia. The events are a 2-day software developers' professional development conference. We cover the emerging technologies and best practices in the software industry – regardless of technological platform or language – without commercial hype.
Here are some designs from our past events: https://www.flickr.com/photos/yowconference/53374369648/in/album-72177720313121006/, https://www.flickr.com/photos/yowconference/52557935011/in/album-72177720304383162/, https://www.flickr.com/photos/yowconference/49190794671/in/album-72157712123277497/, https://www.flickr.com/photos/yowconference/31269854017/in/album-72157704381756935/ and https://www.flickr.com/photos/yowconference/31636271462/in/album-72157678013389356/
