Brian,

I don't mean to start any trouble with you and I'm certainly not implicating you in anything, but I'm starting to get a little paranoid.

I thought it was pretty weird when a design called "Spoilt" showed up on Threadless a few months ago using some of the same ideas as a shirt I designed a couple years ago called "Spoiler."

Now I come across Quack Attack and it bears a striking resemblance to a punchline of a comic I did in November, 2003!

Like, I said - I'm not suggesting anything. I just think it's crazy that there are as many like-minded people out there.

Either that, or I'm not as clever as I give myself credit for!

Anyway, I thought it would be fun to point out! For what it's worth, I really like your design treatment. I'm kicking myself that I didn't think of it first!

Uh, does this design look familiar to anyone else?

Man, between my designs for "Ask Me How I Became A Pirate" and "Squirrels Are Nature's Ninjas," I should have been all over this treatment!

I know using the IFC logo was part of the rules of the contest, but I really wish it weren't on there - otherwise I would by five of these shirts!

The design is brilliant, but I don't want to advertise for IFC - no matter how much I love that channel.
