5.2 - Duplicate Uploads

One of the reasons vector files are so useful is that anyone can change the colors of an image with the click of a mouse, and move elements around to create a new composition. As such, we ask that you not submit multiple versions of the same file with only minor color and compositional changes.

You are welcome to reuse elements from one illustration in another, but we ask that each of your submissions be noticeably different in terms of composition and color use. If you wish to submit different colored versions of the same file, please upload them in ZIP folder separately from your AI8 EPS and JPEG preview image (optional).

DO

• Submit compositionally unique files that visibly differ from others you have uploaded.
• Include alternate-color versions within your ZIP folder if you wish (optional)
• Re-use elements from your other images in new and unique compositions

DO NOT

• Submit multiple versions of the same vector file with only minor color and compositional changes
