hi all,
it's been a couple of months that i'm trying to write a slogan in typetee section and it's always the same, i cant break the wall of 50% :( Is it just me and my slogans sux so much? lol

Due to my origins and different culture (italian) i surely think and i like different things, but this typetee is really frustrating LOL. So here I am to ask you forum-ppl, if you have time, to take a look at my latest slogans and tell me what's wrong and/or if you like them.

thanx to all

I'll check 'em out...

It does take time though. Also, it helps to participate in the Threadless Community, so you've taken a step in the right direction by posting a blog.

Just visit the blogs often and be active. You'll figure out what kinds of slogans do well and what kinds are not so good. There are others on this site who submit slogans but are from non english speaking countries as well. We will help you translate if you ask for it. Stick around these blogs and you'll eventually see your ratings rise :)

Tikimaster you are right. I've just figured out that there are a couple of topics exclusively related to typetee... i'll try to understand what's going on in there (typetees club and shoguns). thank you!!

Voted ;)

yeah, make sure to join one of the two slogan blogs...You will get lots of exposure to your slogans. Also, if you are having trouble writing it in a way that would makes sense in english or whatever, just post in the blog and you will get tons of help before you submit a final version :)

The two main slogan communities are:

Slogan Shoguns

and

The OSC

All about me
I'm an Italian graphic designer and illustrator, but not so happy of being born in Italy. Now I live in Milan but I'd like to move to one of those northern europe countries, i don't know why, I think it's because i used to live there in a previous life (lol). Even if the weather honestly sucks, i love those cute cities and those landscapes. I love to hear unknown strange languages and be happy because i dont understand a single word. I know it's weird, but i like it. :) Soon or later, i'll escape and move over there.
