There is a slogan so funny and worth printing that I think it should be voted on by as many people as possible so it can be printed. Its not one of mine, its greenttentacle's "H20: I'd tap that" is very funny and its so easy to see the design on the tee. please, people, vote and send some love to this great slogan!
and if you get time, vote on mine as well
thanks!!
As Threadless has moved to putting slogans on twitter and moving away from type tees, I feel a tear come to my eye and a swear word to my lips.

My votes on my slogans have dropped down quite a lot and I have been putting in the hard yard recently coming up with some worgasm-isms (its a new word FRICKENAWESOME posted recently) as well as trying to live a life.

I heard Ross (the art director) speak on Tuesday night about Threadless and how they were formed and what direction they are looking forward to doing. Really interesting overall, if it wasn't for the snobs I would have enjoyed myself more. Ross said that Threadless has wanted to do something with Twitter for a while and that its was more to do with doing something new with some friends but it still seems like a cope out for Threadless.

Where is the community spirit? Where is the slogan love? and why can't i get more votes??!!
I'm not sure if this has been started somewhere else or if this is the first.

What I want to know is, what makes a really great tee?

What are the things you should be thinking about when voting?

- aesthetics
- the placement
- the colours
-the message
- the design
... etc

I'm asking this because some designs that should get printed don't and some get printed that i wouldn't wear.
eg. a design that I think should be printed you've been out creeped
and one that i wouldn't wear that has been printed Up the down escalator (not that its bad, its just not something i'd wear)
why is it every time i have a slogan with spelling mistakes in it, it does better than the correctly spelt one!!
"Tetris taught me spatial awareness
of 18 votes, 17% like it""
Tetris taught me spacial awareness
of 39 votes, 62% like it"
i know that it doesn't have the voting that it should but still what the?

does anyone have any tip on how to make those cool flash things where you can see the design and then press a button and see the tee placement and then maybe detail.
i'd love some help or maybe a link to a site that can show me.
thanks!
I'm not getting the slogan voting I was hoping for. If you vote on mine, I'll vote on yours. and if you give me feedback I'll.. be very happy :)
i'm finding that there's a lot of down voting going on, any help would be greatly appreciated :D

I haven't submitted any photos. I guess I don't want free money.

All about me

i've always wanted to do t-shirt designs. My preferred style of expressing myself is photography mainly black and white film images. I enjoy being involved in the entire creative process, including darkroom work. It seems, however, with the general shift to digital and my environmental concerns, I am producing less and less work…so i've started using photoshop.
