Original post follows

Hey dudes and dudettes.

We're a community, and community members help each other out. Right? Right! Cool.

I'm up for collaborating with a handful of sloganeers who want to see their words on a tee. (Probably starting with one, and then picking up more if that goes smoothly/as time allows.)

SOME THINGS TO NOTE:

- KNOW WHAT YOU'RE GETTING. Take a look at some of my subs and get a feel for what I produce. Don't throw your name in the hat if you're looking for alexmdc-style characters or super-slick, clean design; you'll be disappointed, and I'll be frustrated.
- Here are some subs with words and lettering.
- I'm probably more interested in puns and wordplay than clever concepts. (e.g., "Fractions speak louder than nerds," not "Pickles are just cucumbers soaked in evil.") I realise that the two can overlap. Clever concepts involving language are fair game.
- I'm especially interested in working with people who have not yet had a successful collab/print (I hear it's hard to get attention), at least for the first one or two.
- Gotta be honest, this is not my top priority right now. (I'm apartment-hunting, which is taking up most of my free time/life.) I don't have the time or energy to do long, back-and-forth collab work. But, I like drawing letters. What I come up with will probably be simpler and mostly text-based.
-ALSO I'M ON VACATION RIGHT NOW, SO I WON'T BE ABLE TO RESPOND FOR A FEW DAYS

So! Uh, I'm not sure the best way to do this. Post here, maybe, with a link to your slogan blog (and your email). Or if you have a specific one in mind that you think would work well, keeping in mind all of the above, shoot me an email at mismonaut(at)gmail. That would probably work best. If it seems like a good fit, I'll let you know and we can get started.

If you email me, be sure to include a link to your threadless profile so I know who you are.

(I hope I don't get, like, a hundred emails.)

...Just thought I'd mention it.]]> Sun, 22 Apr 2012 07:43:05 -0500 Pick a spam blog. Its title is the title of your new design.

Your design can be abstract, literal, text-based—doesn't matter! Here are a couple examples I've done already.

I'm doin' this, and I want company.

(For more information (and an archive of some really good titles) read here.)

It was hovering just over three the first time I saw it (and I expected it to plunge at any moment), but it's slowly crept up to 3.25.

And I don't really expect it to stay there, but it still makes me happy.



I just wanted to share my excitement!]]> Sun, 15 Apr 2012 20:44:13 -0500
Here's some stuff I like.]]> Mon, 02 Apr 2012 20:22:21 -0500
Some really good stuff up right now. If you haven't scored in a while, take a look at it.]]> Mon, 02 Apr 2012 16:25:09 -0500 I've been keeping it all over here in this post, but this one is hovering right at 2.99 with one day left. And it would totally make my day if I actually broke a three.

No pressure or begging—do what your heart tells you! But I'd be super mopey if one promo blog could have tipped the scales and I didn't post one. So for my own peace of mind, here it is.
