1. Is there any limitation on how the design should be? Must the 
"D" logo be used in design?

2. Where to upload design? Any specific place?

When I am bored or eating, I may open Illustrator or Photoshop 
for a while.

No.

Wherever is fine.

Just no food stains on the design, please. Unless they're for artistic 
effect.

No design is done until there's a coffee cup ring on it.

I should clarify, a t-shirt design specifically for DConf 2014.

I am planning to do a design with red (or maroon) over white. 
Less colour, cheap T-shirt ;).

Black and white are usually the cheapest t-shirts. I think white 
is even cheaper. Keep in mind that the logo has to look cool on 
black as well, so either it can be converted to white on black, 
or the red looks good on black too (maybe a brighter / more 
intense kind of red cf. heavy metal t-shirts :-).

Ah, and SVG would be the best choice. But Walter would have to 
make sure which format the printers accept. You'd be surprised 
how backward / ignorant some shops are.

Assuming this is for the conference, last year's were dark gray 
shirts from American Apparel (so kinda thin and a tiny bit 
stretchy).  So I suspect the printer used was pretty decent.

AI, PSD, PDF, PNG, SVG, JPG. I can generate any of them. No 
problem at all.

I will try to upload them wiki as soon as possible.

I don't know the timing until when the design should be chosen, 
et cetera. I am sure people has lots of ideas as well. So, we can 
do changes on them. I completed those designs in less than 2 
hours. So, they are quick and dirty designs.

Great, thanks. Let's set the deadline to March 21, one month before the 
event.

If other people have suggestions for tcak, or competing designs, let 
them known by then.

Hello. Well, I have prepared 10 different designs, and also put 4 
of them on T-shirts to be seen.

Wiki requires registration etc. So, I have uploaded them to 
Neffie Publink. They can be found and download from following 
link.
http://publink.neffie.com/subject/GnzYk3RAbbCNkWRPdGyGmeE1ceaFPc5xJ1m5l1LZr6vcQtbchtayo75Iawm1AG0t

All of them are my designs and vector based. So, they can be 
updated easily. If anyone can upload them to Wiki, that will be 
really great. I really do not have time at the moment.

Thanks for that Tourist.

About that design, actually I was seeing those circles as people 
those are coming to the conference.

I don't know the pricing though, if more colours won't be a 
problem, design can be improved. In CMYK, there is no direct red 
colour already. So, eventually it will need at least two colours 
to be used.

We had multiple colors last year, you can assume we will again.

Perhaps chaining the darker red to a color with more contrast to the red.

Anyway, since people needed to download again and again to see 
designs, Image Preview feature is added as well. So, there is no 
need to download images to see them any more.
