Wanted: Graphic Designers for LFC

Are you a graphic designer with a passion for Liverpool Football Club and social media? If you are, then you might want to read this...

Fresh from winning a Shorty Award for the best use of Twitter by any sports team in the world, Liverpool FC are giving fans the chance to help redesign our Facebook and Twitter pages.

http://assets2.lfcimages.com/images/spacer.gifHaving become the first Premier League club to launch official pages on Pinterest and Tumblr last month, the Reds have been praised in recent weeks for pushing the boundaries of what football clubs can do with social media and now we are taking that engagement to the next level.

Earlier this month, we launched a design competition where fans could submit a new Cover image for our facebook page and/or a new background for our Twitter account.

With over nine million fans following those two pages, it's the perfect opportunity to showcase your work to the world and if you're still at school, college or university, it's not going to do your portfolio any harm to say you've had your design utlised by Liverpool Football Club.

Already this month, six fans have seen their designs used by LFC (see below) and now we want to see what you can do.

TWITTER

The Task: Design the background image that fans will see when they visit Liverpool FC's official Twitter page

The Design: The design is totally up to you - but one idea we'd definitely be interested in early on would be a montage of famous faces from LFC's history filling the whole screen. Fans can use images found on the official LFC website to help craft their designs.

The Specifications: The image needs to fill the entire screen - but you need to remember that depending on the different screen resolutions being used by different fans, not all of your image will be displayed on some monitors. Images placed on the left hand side of the screen are more likely to be seen than those on the right. The optimum size to design your background is believed to be 1920px for the width and 1200px for the height. A good guide to getting your dimensions right and what will be visible to fans can be found here. All images must be less than 800k and supplied as a GIF, JPG or PNG image.

The Prize: Worldwide fame, obviously! But if that's not enough - we'll throw in an annual pass for LFC TV Online for each background image we use. You'll also be able to tell everyone you know that you designed a social media background image for one of the biggest clubs in the world!

How to enter: Email your design to imagine@liverpoolfc.tv and include 'Twitter design' in the subject box. There is no closing date as this is an on-going competition with multiple winners. If we use your design, you are a winner.
