... if you're one of those people like me who try to do interesting ones, what's the main thing you think about? How flattering the photo is to you, how good the photo is compositionally/thematically/whatever, or how much of the tee design gets in?
I've been thinking about this recently due to uploading a massive amount of pics as an attempt to dull the painful blow of the financial crisis, as I always take a couple of pics of each shirt so I can pick afterwards. I think I'm getting increasingly artsy with these things. For example, my pic for The Ravens Cry is not all that flattering - I look dead-eyed and creepy - but so do the girls on the tee, so I picked it because it felt more in sync with the tee. Just uploaded a pic for The Green Fairy... Took two photos, one with flash and one without. ![]() ![]() The one with flash definitely gives a clearer shot of the design... but the darker one just feels like a better, more fitting picture, even though you can barely see the fairy. I picked the darker one - what would you have done? Am I mad for thinking so hard about my STP pics? It's a lot of work for $1.50 (even though $1.50 is worth more than before :p). I probably expended far too much effort on this, but damn it, I had fun: ![]() Right. Should be getting to bed now. Fervently hoping my points come in in time for me to buy the shirts I want, as they're selling out very fast...
