About a month ago the Women’s National Basketball Association and Adidas launched an “i-design” contest that asked fans to create a shooting shirt either for their favorite WNBA team or for the 2008 Finals. (The shirt above, by “basketfan76,” was among the better Mercury designs I found on the site.)

The winning designs will be determined by representatives from the WNBA and Adidas, not online voting.

The creator of each winning team design will receive two tickets to a WNBA game, an autographed-by-the-whole-team version of the shirt itself, and an Adidas prize pack. (What, no cash?) The team will wear the shirt during its Fan Appreciation Night.

The creator of the winning Finals shirt wins an all-expense-paid trip for two to a Finals game. The participating teams will wear that shirt during one game of the Finals.

The last day for entries is July 31. More information — and a downloadable toolkit with logos and base shirt — are here. So far there are only about a dozen Mercury designs, so get to it!
