...to create this thing that happened here.

That is all.

Background story: At the initial Threadless meet up, the Threadless Party of Doom, I had the pleasure of meeting fellow bloggers and designers. ToraSteve was there as well and the very first question he asked me was, "Are you a big eater?" Since then, there have been many more meet ups, more discussions centered around food and plenty of feasts to be had. So I made a design inspired by the joy of eating.

Does anyone have any experience with camera ready art? I remember hearing about this in a design history portion of a class once, but, up until now, have never had a printer ask me for that. They want a hard copy (easy) and a camera ready print out. Does that just mean four print outs in black of CMYK separations? Are there any weird requirements for something like that? Would the easiest way to do the print out separations be in the printer settings or is there another standard way of doing this?



Did you know there were still printers who asked for this??

Oh noes! It's yet another meet up blog! Too bad! Wanna fight about it?

I took too many pics, but narrowed it down to a measly 100. CLICK HERE TO SEE ALL 100! Here's a couple of faves:





I also took a bunch of random YouTube vids, but I think I'm gonna post it in the first comment so the body of the blog doesn't get super duper long.

Some fun memories off the top of my head:
• Getting to randomly see Most Serene Republic with Craig and then seeing Kevin Drew outside.
• ToraSteve drinking pomegranite martinis. Hey, he's not a girl!
• Getting drunk text messages from both Reilly and andyg even thought we were in the same room.
• Fitting into one 7XL shirt with Amanda and andyg.
• Making my first wizard's staff.
• David/Seibei's impression of Kevin Tong.
• Julia's car getting broken into (this wasn't a fun memory), and the robbers specifically stole all of our meet up shirts and EPIC ZALZA shirts (that part was funny).
• Kevin wearing my tee! :-o
• Alvin's really weird undulating pole dance in the train.
• Omair saying, "That's like (insert random Disney movie)".
• Making Phil's Big Boy EPIC ZALZA with the crew!

Many many thanks to Threadless for being so awesome! Everyone there went the extra mile to make sure we all had the time of our lives. You guys are the greatest!

I was flipping through a magazine and came across this scintillating ad. Andyg never told us he was a Calvin Klein model!

It's another mixtape! :-o

Is anyone going to one of their shows this summer/fall? If so, please check out their merch :-)





(I THINK those are the final colors of shirts they picked...)

Don't act like you're not impressed.

This clip is so weird/hilarious. It's a bit long, but totally worth it!
