a lot of one color tees today = good!
lotsa one color tees today- both new and reprinted...nice! they are typically the only ones i wear and the kind i am afraid will be a waste of time to submit...but this gives me hope.

-although how much time will have to pass before so many one-color subs wins and print again?

what are your opinions on one-color stuff?
any design that can get the point across in 1 to 3 colors is tops, IMO.

I love one-colored designs and I think they are very hard to pull off. But the likes of Fatheed get it done and well!

also, a good one color design can be printed on most any color....
so let's review:

1) folks in the know like 1 (or low) color designs)
2) they save printing costs
3) they are printable on a larger # of colors

so, pretty much 3 solid 'pros' to printing one/low color designs

so why am i afraid to come up with any? :P

I'm putting my hand in the circle for low and one colour designs. Simpler the better for me. It's nice to do an indulgent 8-colour screen print or a sim process - but I try to keep it to as few colours as possible these days.

I think two colors designs using pink and baby blue are for wussballs

i can't wait until the faux 80's neon revival is over, or the 'let's see how much color and metallic in we can cram onto one gaudy shirt' movement are over again.
not here, i mean, but in general

The best compliments I ever received here (that haven't been deleted):

I think there will be a few different subs in the top 20 once all the loves threadless have finsihed scoring. Travis has to be up there somewhere, his last few subs have lifted the bar on here--------

-from the co-owner:

yea this is super neat, i would wear it

-from a blogger:

I don't know if anyone else who's been hanging around threadless for far too long (like myself) gets really excited when under-printed designers put out a sure thing - but I know I do. I feel the same way about this as when I first saw "No Peeking" by Jublin. That "THIS is a print and it couldn't happen to a better person."
Enjoy your...uh...12 pack of Red Bull.
