Wow I just saw the poster with all the names.
Good to see who did what.

Mezo-monster is my fave! ^^

nice interview!

"We opened up a forum (see post by Blair) and this is the
place where we discuss ideas, show work-in-progress, help
each other out, give comments and suggestions, and share
tips and tricks."

Oh how I wish all that activity was taking place in
Threadless' open forum (not the Alumni forum) right
now today - especially for the sake of new designers.

Actually -- it's not being held in the alumni forum.
They have a BRC forum though.
In the alumni forum we talk about beer.
True story.

yeah even alumni get left out of that one.

I know it's not taking place in the Alumni forum.
I think the Alumni forum was made so a similar
situation would occur that's occurring in the Black
Rock forum, but I would love to see that sort of
stuff happening out in the public where everyone
(especially new designers) could see the great
advice, tricks, techniques, etc. on display.

Maybe that's happening in the Critique section
of Threadless and I'm missing it all.

I hope Threadless records the classes they are
having at their store and make them available
here at Threadless to watch.

We did a little poster collaboration in the Alumni forum. Nothing spectacular just a little exercise. Most importantly it shows that collabs on the scale of the BRC could easily happen Alumni style

and i'm a total nerd and printed it out and put it in my cubicle, hahah



i think there are a good deal of WIP blogs in the open forum, and i think that's the majority of posts in BR and the alumni anyway. they tend to be ignored/bumped down more in lieu of other topics, though.

I don't think anyone was really taking that poster too seriously, though.

I liked it too, sonmi. I'd wear it over the black rock shirt printed on here.

I'm not being funny or owt, it just looks like a load of odd characters which don't fit together and an odd looking lightening bolt. It doesn't do anything for me.
sonmi
   sonmi on Feb 04 '08 at 6:11pm
actually it'd be sweet to have a collab shirt of this calibre! let's get to it

"i think there are a good deal of WIP blogs in the open forum"

I agree. I've seen some by JOHN2, hogboy,
ISABOA, abeadlesPornographic, J-Ray, and others I can't remember right now (sorry to you guys). And I would like to see even more -- "the more the merrier"

I know what you're saying Tont. It's hard to think of a single collaborative piece that could encompass everyone's different styles and yet not look like a jumbled mess. I think considering the wide range of styles of everyone that contributed, the finished thing is surprisingly cohesive, plus it helps a lot that the colours are really well implemented. Also Threadless now have a cool record of what was going on circa 2007.
