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.
So I've had an idea for a design floating around in my head for quite a while that I've always wanted to do but I really dont have the skills to do it by myself.

And it fits in perfectly with the Joy of text competition.

At the moment is has a working title of english to english though that can be changed if people can come up with anything better.

Its fairly simple, on one side of the shirt you have words in UK english and on the other side you have north american english.

For example:

Cash machine ATM
Mobile Cell

I can help out with drawing the text if thats how people would want to work but I have no idea how to use illustrator so I'd need someone to colour it in and I'd also need help with the translations.

The goal would be to produce an epic list of words.

Anyone interested?

On the pure hypothetical assumption that we win, prize money would be 50/50 but the sub would go under your account (so you get the printed designer colour).

That would be cool rhythmev, but I'm not sure how it would be done because the words need to line up next to each other and the uk is considerably smaller than north america.



Baka thanks for the link thats amazing.

It would be neat if it were a little collage of the words creating the items, though I'm not sure how to separate the two. Maybe different colors?
