Create an original design to be placed on a Hooded Sweatshirt executed in 8-Bit graphic style. "8-Bit" for the purpose of this Design Challenge means a style that is pixilated and in which each pixel represented in the design is clearly defined graphically. Each pixel should be uniform to the other pixels in the design and each pixel should contain only one color per pixel. There is no official requirement on the total number of pixels, size of pixels, or color of pixels required for your original design. The term "8-Bit" is not intended in its technical, exact meaning and is used to evoke a design "look" inspired by 8-Bit designs. Examples of 8-Bit design will be provided in the Creative Brief and Tips download;
You must use the Hooded Sweatshirt template or its equivalent provided for download at the Design Challenge Page, but may select which views to use;
You must limit your design to two or less print areas. The front, back, side, sleeve, and hood are each considered separate print areas.
You may not include any copyrighted, creative commons or fan art images, including but not limited to logos or images taken from video games, television programs, movies, cartoons, comic books, and the like. For example, you may not include imagery from Super Mario Brothers, Duck Hunt, Frogger, Donkey Kong or any other images that are not your own including stock.
Hmm ... You're right ! The last few contests I saw required the DA logo somewhere on it, but apparently not this time.
You're on your own !
Vote for my design! Thanks!

I know that this design might feel kind of plastic, but it is not prohibited. They just want you to avoid it.
According to your second piece of advice... Well... I do not know if it could be considered a third printing area. Remember that I have the front and the back printing sides done. The "Side" area is just to illustrate how it would look like.
And finally, thanks for your best wishes!
