If you've ever had a yen to see your design on a t-shirt this could be your moment. Actually, to be more specific, this could be your 3 million yen moment...as that's the grand prize in this year's Uniqlo UT Grand Prix competition.

Now in its fifth year, the "T-shirt Design Olympics" as they call it is open to everyone...any age...and any nationality. The application process runs through September 21st and will be followed by two rounds of evaluations, culminating in the announcement of a winner in the spring of 2009.

Last year's competition ended in April of this year when the winner was announced at a fashion show held in a special site that was set-up in Tokyo Midtown (some of the finalists t-shirts are shown below).
