Your burning illustration design FAQs, answered.

What will I get with my Illustration Design?

Everything required for production will be provided. Your illustration will be delivered in the appropriate formats tailored to your specifications. This typically includes a production-ready Adobe Illustrator file, Adobe Photoshop file, PDF file, or EPS file.

To ensure accessibility, web preview files in PNG or JPEG formats will also be included, as not everyone may have the necessary design programs (though your printer will).

Additionally, you will receive full legal copyright, ensuring complete ownership of the design.

Should I run a Design Context or work directly with a freelance designer

In a design contest, illustrators from around the globe submit unique concepts based on your brief. You select finalists, provide feedback to refine the designs, and ultimately choose your favorite graphic illustration as the winner. If exploring diverse design styles and generating ideas is important to you, we recommend a design contest.

However, if you have a clear vision for your illustration’s style and direction, or if your project is more intricate (like creating a full book of custom illustrations), starting a project with a freelance artist would be more suitable.

What do I need to bring to the graphic illustration process?

Lots of ideas! For inspiration, explore ideahits to discover fantastic examples of illustrations crafted by our design community.

Be as detailed as possible. Include color preferences, character descriptions, data, themes, dimensions, examples of other art you admire, printing specifications, and any other details that will impact your design.

Providing comprehensive information helps designers create the perfect illustration for you.

Can I use my images in my design?

Yes, if you have any specific images such as a logo or a photo that should be incorporated into your illustration, please include them when submitting your brief to designers

What if i have more than one Illustration or need additional sizez?

Your custom illustration contest includes one winning illustration. If you need a second piece or an additional size, you have a couple of options: you can run another contest, or you can initiate a 1-to-1 Project with your winning designer to develop the additional assets.

Can I work with my designer once my contest ends?

Absolutely (and we love it when that happens)! Once your illustration contest has concluded, you can begin a 1-to-1 Project with your winning designer.

Is there really a 100% money back guarantee?

We provide a 100% money-back guarantee within 60 days of payment on all Illustration Contests, except those with a guaranteed prize and those in the Final Round. You can also contact us anytime for assistance in revising your brief, reopening your project to ensure a satisfactory outcome, and selecting a winning design. Please note that if we refund your contest, you are not legally entitled to use any of the designs submitted.

Which package should I choose for my custom Illustration context?

We guarantee that you’ll receive a great illustration at any pricing level, but our higher-priced packages provide more design options and enhanced support.

Here’s how it works: When you invest more, the prize for the winning designer increases as well. This attracts more experienced designers to participate in your contest, resulting in a wider selection of high-quality designs. With more options available, additional time may be needed to review all designs thoroughly. That’s why our Gold and Platinum packages include dedicated managers who streamline the process by crafting creative briefs and offering feedback to your designers.

When choosing your illustration contest package, consider the time you have available and your experience in writing briefs and collaborating with designers. If you need assistance, feel free to contact us for a design consultation.

How can I get my design printed on a T-shirt Design?

It’s simple! Once you’ve selected a winning T-shirt design, you’ll receive ready-to-print files.

For your printing needs, we recommend VistaPrint — surprising, right? They’ve printed billions of business cards (literally), offering fast and reliable service. Of course, if you prefer to use your own trusted printer, you’re welcome to do so as well!

How can iI protect my Illustration Context with an NDA?

Select “Make your contest private” from the Contest options section before launching your illustration art contest. This ensures that designers cannot use their designs elsewhere, and your contest will not be searchable on the web.

By choosing this option, a standard NDA template will be automatically attached to your contest. Alternatively, you can upload your own NDA if you prefer.
