If you are wondering "What do I need to do to license my design as CC-BY-SA?"
The simple answer is that you have to say that it is. It doesn't matter how you say it.
When you post it, put "licensed CC-BY-SA" in the email or post. If you upload it somewhere, put "CC-BY-SA" in the description.
If you really want to, you can put it in the File/Properties (metadata) of the SVG or PSD file.
As long as you say so, somewhere, it is licensed CC-BY-SA and I (or anyone) can re-use it.
Thanks

Hey aantonop, you pointed me here from another thread, it seems I missed the competition etc which is no big deal. I would like to find out what the requirments are for a paper wallet, I have not idea what information is necessary (i.e. QRCode, Bitcoin address etc). I will be selling shirts and also some Bitcoin merchandise so I also like the idea of providing some of these wallets to encourage the use of Bitcoin through the user base.
*edit* After scrolling through the thread I now realise lots of templates have been posted, the question now is which is the current standard to go by? Any .ai or .id templates to start of with?

give it a few days so we can settle, then I will post all the resources on the website openpaperwallet.com and we will start packaging for production prints.
There is one template (layout) and 14 graphic designs that fit into that template.
There's also software (a fork of bitaddress), and instructions (in progress).
I will also be selling "reseller kits", which will include all the materials to set up a paper wallet shop and sell them retail.

I just knocked up this quick design, I would probably need to move some stuff about of-course.

Format and uploads ============= I am not a designer nor do I know much about printing so I need to ask others to review the submitted files and let us know what if anything needs to be modified so that everything is consistent and re-usable in an open source manner 1) Go to https://github.com/openpaperwallet/openpaperwallet and click "ZIP" to download the entire (LARGE) zip file. 2) Check each of the supplied SVG and PSD files from each of the designers 3) Let me know if we're missing something I have noticed some are RGB, some CYMK, some SVG, some PSD. I assume the best (for print) is CYMK in open SVG format. All the designs need to have the original layers so they can be modified. Please help me verify, so that if changes are needed we can ask designers to make them. Thanks!

Outsourcing professional paper wallets would be a fantastic idea I have wanted to inspire. It can be done securely using a two-factor system. Here is how it would work.
Suppose I engaged a professional printer who could do the whole thing other than prove they didn't keep the private keys (which is impossible). Instead, I would have them create the second factor of a two-factor system.
It would sort of work like this. I write a program to generate a bunch of random string passphrases and their corresponding "intermediate codes". The printing company would use the same or similar program to take those intermediate codes and generate the encrypted private keys and the bitcoin addresses. They would do all of the printing. Those paper wallets would be perfectly usable, except that I only have the passphrases.
They deliver the paper wallets to me. I overprint the passphrases on them, such as with an inkjet printer. I don't know the encrypted private key because the printing company has already covered it with a scratchoff.
Once done this way, the only way the users of these paper wallets could be stolen from is if both that company and I were to have colluded to share the key material with one another. ....
IT's not even necessary for you to be involved if the keys are split into two parts, the first is printed by one printer, that is sealed, then the 2nd is printed by another printer, and that is sealed. This does have some issues in creating two QR codes that have to be combined into one, but that is really easy software. Read QR1, Read QR2, concatenate strings. ... ****** 1DkvYc somewhere on the note and the stub.Note that can be a randomly generated graphic, it does not have to be a text string.

Our version has been sent. We license it under CC-BY-SA - just for record.

BOUNTY CLOSED This project now moves to the implementation phase. We have a repository ( https://github.com/openpaperwallet/openpaperwallet) with almost a dozen open sourced, standardized and beautiful designs. Thank you all for contributing. Next steps: - Software for QR printing (bitaddress.org clone) - Website - Production print-run - Pre-sales - Re-seller kits and retail sales

This is a great design, but it wasn't submitted to the competition. Will you be licensing it for use in the project?

I just knocked up this quick design, I would probably need to move some stuff about of-course. Owen this is strikingly different from the existing designs, really nice! Can you please adjust it to match the template? If you want to release the design to the community, we can add it to the openpaperwallet repository. Thanks!

Hi everyone!
A quick update.
Tomorrow I will be placing the first order for either 4,000 or 8,000 paper wallet prints, using 75RTUGA's design (my favorite choice and the one I think will sell easily, not for any other reason).
I will be offering re-seller kits at cost, enough materials to prepare and sell 25 paper wallet kits (40 wallets each).
This is the only time that these reseller kits will be available at cost, at about $450 + shipping, as you will be partaking in some of the risk which is inherent with an unsold product before the first print.
I have 2 resellers interested, can support up to 4 resellers in this run. If I get 4 resellers, I will do the larger run and the cost will be reduced by about 15%. If not, I will do the smaller run.
The reseller kits will be priced at either $500 or $550 for 25 kits, immediately after the first print run is complete, the regular re-seller price.
Each wallet kit will retail between $25 and $40 depending on demand and production costs, with a profit of about 10%-45%.
A reseller can buy at $18 and sell for $25 minimum retail, for a profit of $7 per kit, or 38%.
Anyone who pre-orders a paper wallet kit (40 wallets, 10 sheet) in the next 5 days will get it at cost (~$18) + shipping, no profit for me. Just let me know before the 5 days are up and I will lock in your pre-order price.
Thank you all for making this open project work,
Now, let's make and sell some paper wallets!

Update:
I looked at paper samples today and picked a textile weave 260gsm paper with a slightly off-white (cream) color temperature.
I placed the order for 4000 wallets and will have them printed in time to hand out samples at bitcoin 2013 conference
Have 6 kit pre-orders already, setting up website to sell directly now.

Pre-order here, delivery some time in the next two weeks, depending on the printer's delivery schedule: http://safepaperwallet.openbtcshop.com/If you have emailed me I have counted your kit in the pre-order limit, use the store for easier ordering and payment. Full launch on Monday May 20th, after the bitcoin 2013 conference. I will also have some samples and discount coupons at the conference (not as good price as pre-order discount, but discounted 20% off full price) I will continue to take pre-orders until the opening of the show on May 17th, if I still have supplies. Thanks to all the people who have sent in orders!
