About my design
by NGee   
Not sure if people can see it on this image, but the leaves of the tree are bank notes - higher res image in my profile.

Beautiful. Love the concept and execution. The penny was a little bit hard to interpret at first but 5$ nonetheless

This design is too weird. Is it suppose to say that money grows on trees as if they were leaves? Because that is certainly not the case.

superaggro... haven't you ever heard sayings like "money doesn't grow on trees"? I don't think it's weird. I think it's nice. maybe a little bit bigger would be good so that the money is identifiable from further away.

the shiny penny idea is probably my favorite part, by the way

"Penny would be printed in shiny gold" for some reason made me laugh, so... 5

you should include "Penny would be printed in shiny gold" on the t-shirt and if the shirt is printed, the penny should be not shiny gold. I don't understand what's going on, though. what statement is being made?

i think people might be a bit confused at the messege b/c why would someone wait for the shiny peeny to drop with all the paper wealth on the ground? Or is the child just more interested in the shiny aesthetic beauty of the most beat-up and underappreciated form of American currency than the ugly dull paper money already dropped? Am i thinking too hard into this shirt?

ummm where can i find this tree?

FRICKINAWESOME - Those are exactly the kind of questions I hoped people would consider when they see the design, so thanks I guess.

Could the penny be printed in shiny copper instead?
NGee
   NGee on Nov 30 '06
Hmmm...this I do not know. Would be cool if it could though.

I like the design, but I dont get it... Everyone always says how could you not get it but then fail to explain what they got?.. Anyway.

is it also playing the old superstition that you're supposed to catch the last leaf to fall off a tree for luck?

You'd have six colors.
at the moment you can only have five I'm pretty sure.

but...I'm not sure.

yeah dude.. i know!!
split the atom printed it!! great stuff.
I noticed it's a different version though.
I prefer the original, but that's a great print nonetheless :)

shiney penny part is cute, but shouldn't it be more copper? then you'd know it was a penny.
NGee
   NGee on Dec 01 '06
jemmawatt - there are only five colours, the guys face is the tee colour, then two browns, white, green and gold* Jillypilly - copper would be cool, but as mentioned above, I want it to be shiny so it stands out and though I'm not sure threadless could do copper, I know they have done gold.

Is this a man or a little boy? And if the design was bigger it would perfect. I love the idea (if it's what I think it is)

can threadless do shiny gold? Because if it's a penny it should be in copper!

Awsome design! I love the penny idea, but I think it might be easier for some people to get if you had a few pennies on the ground with the notes. :) Otherwise, fantastic!

If only I didn't know the answer...the lack of love for it still hurts.
