Poster Clash 2010 is seeking entries for its contest. The theme for this graphic design competition is “Change one thing.”

According to the sponsors:

“From the simplest action of changing to compact florescent bulbs, to more in-depth changes such as political parties and life habits, motivating change in visual communication is one of the most basic and fulfilling aspects of the communication profession.

“Use this poster platform to engage, educate and drive change in your viewer’s world through the use of type and imagery.”
