For and in consideration of the review of Your Submissions, and for and in consideration of Your entry into the Contest, as set forth below, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, You hereby agree as follows:

By submitting any Submission to ShirtCraze.com, You hereby represent that You are the sole author and/or rights holder in such Submission, that such Submission is your own original work, has not been previously published, and does not contain any trademark, logo, copyrighted material, or any other intellectual property of any kind which may belong to any third-party, or that may infringe upon any rights of any third-parties. By transmitting the Submission to ShirtCraze.com, You agree to assign all right, title, and interest in the Submissions (including, without limitation, all copyright, trademark, trade dress, contract, moral or other rights, and regardless of whether such rights are federal or state, and whether such rights are codified or at common law) to ShirtCraze.com, as well as to grant ShirtCraze.com a fully paid-up, exclusive, transferable, irrevocable and unlimited license in all intellectual property comprising the Submission.   All Submissions become the sole property of ShirtCraze.Com, and will not be returned to You.   You agree that You will not use or commercially exploit the Submission for any purpose following its tender to ShirtCraze.Com, without the express prior written permission of ShirtCraze.Com.

We may, at our sole discretion, and without any obligation or further compensation to You, register a copyright in, trademark, and/or commercially exploit any Submission.  In the event that ShirtCraze.Com submits a registration to any officiating body which oversees intellectual property registrations, ShirtCraze.Com will identify you as the author of the Submission.  Further, upon request, You agree to provide sufficient and accurate identifying information to allow ShirtCraze.Com to complete any such registration.

You are tendering the Submission to be entered in a design contest (“Contest”).  No purchase is necessary to enter the Contest, but no entry to the Contest will be accepted without a Submission.  Upon receipt of Submissions, ShirtCraze.Com will evaluate the Submission for compliance with its design criteria, which include the following:

  • ShirtCraze.Com reserves the right to refuse entry to the Contest of any Submission for any reason, in its sole discretion.

The refusal of ShirtCraze.Com to accept any Submission for entry into the Contest does not affect the assignment of rights in the Submission set forth above.

You may link to the voting page for Your Submission on other websites, provided that no “hotlinking” is employed, that the full link is utilized, that third parties are directed only to ShirtCraze.Com’s website, and the entire page (with all Terms of Use and copyright notices intact) is viewable by parties directed to such link. You agree not to engage, directly or indirectly, in any attempt to defraud or otherwise unduly influence the voting process, and You further agree not to employ, directly or indirectly any virus, Trojan, “bot”, dialer, script, robot, or other means of inflating vote counts or engaging in machine-assisted entries.   ShirtCraze.Com reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to withdraw or invalidate any Submissions, votes cast, or voting results.  The judgment of ShirtCraze.Com as to the outcome of all voting shall be final.
