Vanguard Graphic Design Contest

Behold, we are launching a Vanguard graphic redesign contest.
When we launched it in June 2002, the Vanguard had no graphic-let the ride speak for itself we said.
January 2006 we relaunched the Vanguard in bamboo and it was time to present a graphic component that conveyed the experience of flow, the beauty of the construction and a maverick, no holds barred attitude.
We approached artist and friend, Travis Parr and he came up with the following: Travis Parr's Original Design.
We then had Jan Michael Bennet remix it into its current format.

And now it's time to redo it once again.
This time, we're expecting you to figure out how best to reflect the soul of the Vanguard.

Download the template here and get going.
Download the Loaded and Vanguard Logos here
All submissions need to be on the Vanguard template and use the Loaded & Vanguard Logos(download those from above links).
There are no real limits on colors or content (Nothing offensive (alcohol, drugs, etc...) or pornographic in nature will be accepted, though). However, we do need at least 1" of bleed (the graphic should run an extra 1" around the edges) and spot colors will come out looking way better.
File format for image upload MUST be a .jpg file.

Size requirements for full version image: The full version should be high quality (at least 300dpi) in case we use it. Also, keep in mind that this graphic may be used for both the 38" and the 42" Vanguards.

Who can participate?
You don't have to be a graphic artist to participate-anyone and everyone is welcome, worldwide.

Questions:  adam@loadedboards.com or don@loadedboards.com

Terms and conditions: Loaded will subjectively decide who, if anyone, wins. We expect to get some amazing entries and may have more than one winner. Or we may not like any of the entries and decide to ship the Vanguards with crayons so everyone can design their own.
   Please note that by submitting a graphic you give Loaded permission to tweak and remix it as we see fit.
   Loaded will own the rights to the graphic and if we use it for other purposes aside from the Vanguard or marketing,
   we will discuss with the winner.

Prizes:
The winner will receive the following:

1. A vanguard deck with their graphic (in its final version)
2. A free complete of their choice
3. A set of the second generation Loaded gloves and pucks
4. A helmet
5. A loaded T-shirt

Judge each other: Don't email your design to us. Instead, upload submissions to our sitefor everyone to judge and critique each other. Loaded will still be the final arbiter of who wins, but we want everyone involved so we can push each other.

When will the new graphic come out? If we're stoked on the graphic(s), it will replace the current Vanguard bottom graphic. We're building ahead for summer now, so it may not appear in shops until mid 2008.
