Need graphic help

Our recruitment theme this year is "When Your Letters are in front of you, your sisters are behind you". We're having trouble finding a graphic for that. Can anyone help?

is if for all of NPC or just your sorority?

If it's just for you... well i don't want to state the obvious solution but I will see if it gets the ball rolling with other people.

Have a picture of a cartoon like girl in your letters and then have other girls (assume they are also her sisters) behind her... but visible... and maybe only like 3 of them.

Or don't use a graphic. Use type only. Make sure it's not some goofy looking curly cue font either. VERY hard to read on shirts (I speak from experience.)

So put the first half of the saying on the front... and the second half on the back. Make the shirt color bright and voila... a recruitment shirt!

It's for panhel, which is Delta Phi Epsilon, Phi Mu and Phi Sigma Sigma.

Go to http://greek101.com/screenprinting/designs.php and click on "Browse our T Shirt Design Gallery" in the red box on the right. There are 57 pages of designs maybe it will give you some ideas.

Just an idea I had, to kind of tie everything together.

For Bid Day, or depending on your chapter's rules about pledges/new members wearing letters - when they initiate, you could get t-shirts that on the front have your letters, and on the back say "My sisters are behind me"

Just an idea I thought might be powerful for the girls in your chapter

What would be really beautiful is if you have a group shot of DPhiEs, Phi Mus and Phi Sigs all together and smiling, you could grayscale (don't know how else to say it) and put it in a box on the back. Above the box, write:

When your letters are in front of you

And, under the box, write:

Your sisters are behind you.

On the front of the shirt, you could simply put "Bid Day 2004" then list the sororities. To get past the problem of who to put first in the list, I would put the sorority that has the oldest local founding date, then the second and then the third.

Thanx for all the suggestions. Checked out greek101 and found nothing helpful.

The shirts are for all of recruitment and the graphic would be included in everything having to do with it-- flyers, brochures, videos, tshirts, etc.

And we always have it D Phi E, Phi Mu, Phi Sig... alphabetical order.

Thankx again everyone!

Let me know if you like this. I think the image is too big to post here so I'm just posting the URL to it. It's just a quick draft and needs some polishing though.

That is so cute! I'll have to send that to my panhel council and see what they think. It's really creative too .

That looks really good. I would be interested in seeing what it would look like if the slogan was center alligned.

It's really easy to alter it. I also realized one of the DPE's head's is cut off at the top. Tried to make the "girls" in some of each sorority's colors and then made them more transparent so that you could see the letters better. I also had an idea of a paper doll effect.. all the little paper doll girls holding hands in the foreground, each with a different chapter's letters and then a whole bunch of paper dolls in the background in the various colors.

I like to goof around with graphics.
