ZillionDesigns launched a contest asking our 50,000+ designers to create an illustration for Earth Day. We wanted designs that had a simple concept, helped promote a more earth-conscious and environmentally friendly world, and centered on our theme “Think Before You Print.” It was also an opportunity to show off the illustration and poster design skills of our community.
We received submissions from all over the world! Thank you to all who entered.
Although there were many wonderful designs, our staff team had to narrow it down to the top five, and now we need your help!
Out of the five options listed below, select the illustration that you believe best fits our theme “Think Before You Print.” You can only vote once, so be sure to pick the illustration that best represents “Think Before You Print”. Voting ends on April 17th, so cast yours soon!
The original contest can be found here, which concluded with over 385 entries.
UPDATE: The poll has officially been closed. Thank you to everyone who voted!

These are some very interesting and creative designs. My favorite would definatly be the printout with the cutout of the tree next to it. I feel it is the msot creative one (although the others are extrememly creative as well) as well as sends the message more fittingly.
#5 is a package! Earth Day is all about taking care of the Earth.
Which is the main subject is in there and most importantly is there is emotion!
Nice concept
All nice designs
Hello Everyone! great stuff here... I was one of the participants but wasn't able to make it to top 5, had so much fun though!!! My vote goes to #359 (THE EARTH IN TEAERS WRAPPED WITH PAPER)as it is truly a sure win for me right from the moment I saw that Masterpiece hit the entries/gallery page. I know most people who can see this couldn't agree with me more... It has all the elements you needed from your design brief... From color preferences, the attack on the current environmental issues, the play of fun and corporate graphic design techniques, the design is remarkably fresh and appealing to the eyes of the audience... From a 100% to 20% view of the artwork, it remains visible and recognizable thus can be printed out on different canvases and materials... VOTE for this masterpiece coz I know you will!!!
It's true, this design does fit everything in the brief very well and it is very visual! It seems people are starting to respond to it too, it's begun a 3-way battle with 2 other designs!
I like the top 5 illustrations but the one i like the most is 5th one.."SIMPLY ARTISTIC".. It's hard to find an art that has minimal elements but the message is completely fantastic like the one made by Microsohk. If you put this on any visual ad, it fits. The concept is compact and straight forward. This can communicate to everyone, adult or youth..Microsoft nailed it!!..:)
It's for MICROSOHK i mean..IT's a WIN!
These are all excellent choices! I like the third one for it's simplicity, but I think my very favorite would have to be the second one (for a college campus setting, at least)
But I think #5 would be perfect for an elementary-age audience!
Great job, everyone.
Thank you! :) Do share and ask others to vote too! Let's spread the words.
this is a really nice concept
My vote goes for the design by evgenyya. I think overall layout of the design plus choice of colors really help it stick out from amongst the other choices.
Illustration by Microsohk is the one completely conveys the theme “Think before you Print"
We all the knew that papers comes from the trees, but this illustration does not only shows that but it also shows the effect of it on our home Earth and the fact that we are hurting. it.
The illustration also approach young audiences. Even without the caption the illustration tells the complete thought or story...
Understandably we all know the consequences but not many relate to their own self. We hope this contest will create some awareness. I am happy you can relate to it.
