Challenge Summary

The goal of this challenge is to design only the back part of the tshirt of TCO17 Regional Events.

Design Requirements

For this challenge, you are only required to design the back part of the tshirt. The back must contain:
1. A map with a pin pointing to the location the event is at. For this challenge the location will be Austin, Texas.

2. The TCO17 logo

3. TC logo and TC site url (www.topcoder.com)
 

Design Considerations

1. Keep in mind that we will have several regional events with different location, your design should allow us to easily change the pin of the map to whatever location without affecting the overall design.

2. Place your design into the provided tshirt template.

3. Avoid using gradient design as this will not look good in print.

4. Minimize the use of colors, ideally use only the available colors found from the TCO17 and TC logo.
