stubby43 aka Phil is a 25.42 year old boy, has been a member since December 22, 2006, has scored 3,809 submissions, giving an average score of 2.65, helping 191 designs get printed.
Ok guys, looking forward to getting started on this, I'm setting up a forum so we'll be able to talk about our designs in private but for now I guess it would be a good idea to call in to say your doing it.

Also I cant be leader simply because I dont have access to photoshop and I dont think I'd be able to put together a composition and submit it.

I just signed on to that forum. I'd be happy to lead/manage this tribe if thats okay with everyone.



Also, may I suggest that we use this photo for our flag:

Cool, well I think its a case of see what the group thinks as for the flag stumpyhorse started working on something but again its a group thing.

This should be a pretty strong team actually.

all the tribes are pretty strong

Most def Chelly. It should be a good competition.

I'm puzzled... how did I end up in a tribe but it still says I'm in the vets thing?

there's an official blog floating around here that you probably want to check out

who's our leader?
mindtrance
mindtrance on Oct 23 '07 at 10:01am
I'm looking for it, but not having much luck.
stevetrpi
stevetrpi on Oct 23 '07 at 10:03am
I don't think we have a leader yet.
FireOfHeaven
FireOfHeaven on Oct 23 '07 at 10:03am
stevetrpi should be the leader. he has the most subs and they look good. i think he'd be good to compile our works to look professional.
FireOfHeaven
FireOfHeaven on Oct 23 '07 at 10:05am
i think we have a strong team as well. looking forward to this folks! should be awesome!!!!
mindtrance
mindtrance on Oct 23 '07 at 10:06am
I found it. How is it that some people have 10 and we have 7?
FireOfHeaven
FireOfHeaven on Oct 23 '07 at 10:09am
because we're extra powerful???

we need to start an account for our team.

and it's jake hicks not jacob.

we have to design the banner!!!
stevetrpi
stevetrpi on Oct 23 '07 at 10:09am
I wouldn't mind doing it or stubbythumbs could do it. I do like stubby43's suggestion in the Team Jake Forum about the leader being the voice of the team while we could take turns acting as the compiler/composer.
stevetrpi
stevetrpi on Oct 23 '07 at 10:10am
^by "it" I mean being the leader
FireOfHeaven
FireOfHeaven on Oct 23 '07 at 10:12am
well the compliler/composer has to also create a new design with all of our elements, right? we need a team jake account. i think the compiler/composer is the most important position. maybe both stevetrpi and stubbythumbs should share the compiler job, and one can be our voice. probbably the person who is up here the most?

we should have a jolly roger spinoff design, like a skull with a pencil and marker (the skull could look like him) or something.
mindtrance
mindtrance on Oct 23 '07 at 10:16am
I'm going to start sketching random shit tonight just to have some elements ready for the theme once it's annouced.
FireOfHeaven
FireOfHeaven on Oct 23 '07 at 10:19am
roger that. that would be good. i'll do the same.
FireOfHeaven
FireOfHeaven on Oct 23 '07 at 10:20am
its good we have less people. that's less people to split the winnings with!!!!
FireOfHeaven
FireOfHeaven on Oct 23 '07 at 10:20am
$2000 split 7 ways is $285 each.

mindtrance on Oct 23 '07 at 10:21am
damn right! I'm a little scared of my drawing skills but it'll be okay :)



I'm terrible at Illustrator but I'm decent at Photoshop, we might need someone who can work them into one another for me.
stevetrpi
stevetrpi on Oct 23 '07 at 10:24am
Haha, this is going to be sweet. I do my designs in Illustrator, and compose them in Photoshop
FireOfHeaven
FireOfHeaven on Oct 23 '07 at 10:38am
i can work well in both apps. i'm a graphic designer who has been published and in museums, but yet unsuccessful at designing a tshirt. its weird. so i'm looking forward to actually being a part of a collab with you talented folks and hopefully we can pull out a couple prints... collectively we are more powerful than by ourselves.
FireOfHeaven
FireOfHeaven on Oct 23 '07 at 10:39am
and i wasn't trying to brag or anything. just wanted you to know where i'm coming from.
stevetrpi
stevetrpi on Oct 23 '07 at 10:46am
That's cool FOH. I'm a 3D modeler working for a government contractor but I've always enjoyed illustration. Threadless is my way of being able to do it with no pressure.

I'm just a photoshop ninja trying to save the world from Illustration zombies.
stevetrpi
stevetrpi on Oct 23 '07 at 10:55am
Excellent. Having a ninja on our team should help.

Mindtrance - did you start on a flag? Apparently we need a flag (which we all have to work on) before we get to know the first contest theme.
mindtrance
mindtrance on Oct 23 '07 at 12:13pm
no I have not... I'll do some work on one once I get out of work... let's brainstorm some ideas of things we like on our flag.
mindtrance
mindtrance on Oct 23 '07 at 12:15pm
I like the idea of having some kind of jolly roger with a pencil and marker (maybe the pencil is drawn to look like pencil and the marker like marker, and then the skull in the middle can be half pencil and then fade into color on the marker side.



What things do you like?
stevetrpi
stevetrpi on Oct 23 '07 at 12:15pm
I like your jolly roger idea
stevetrpi
stevetrpi on Oct 23 '07 at 12:17pm
Yeah, all that, sounds good to me.
mindtrance
mindtrance on Oct 23 '07 at 12:19pm
I think the jolly roger should resemble Jake a bit though, think like a cartoon looking skull with a orange/brown beard and some earrings and then maybe a bandana that says threadless survivor or something.
mindtrance
mindtrance on Oct 23 '07 at 12:28pm
posting some pictures for reference and ideas











mindtrance
mindtrance on Oct 23 '07 at 12:30pm
I like the idea of making it look like tattoo flash or graffiti but with some tropical and art elements too. Olli has a style that fits that sort of thing I think.







stubbythumbs
stubbythumbs on Oct 23 '07 at 12:31pm
sweet! i'll roll out a few ideas sometime soon
stubbythumbs
stubbythumbs on Oct 23 '07 at 12:32pm
...obviously, the rest you can too :P
mindtrance
mindtrance on Oct 23 '07 at 12:40pm
maybe instead of a skull in the jolly roger use a tribal mask? I dunno. I'll play around when I get home.
FireOfHeaven
FireOfHeaven on Oct 23 '07 at 12:53pm
'Team Jake' account needs to be secured...
FireOfHeaven
FireOfHeaven on Oct 23 '07 at 12:54pm
remember, we'll have to all work in the same colors... stubbythumbs are you going to be the compiler?
