About the design

Submitted by southworth on January 12, 2007

A parody of/tribute to the great Ed Roth. Also a rework of a previous, somewhat poorly-received design.



YEAH!

Thanks! And it does need the text, if the parody is going to hold up. Almost all of the Ed Roth t-shirts had big, bombastic, cartoony text on them.

Awesome! Personally, I don't like white tshirts, but the design is awesome enough I might overlook that. :)

theurbanraptor

the only problem i see with this shirt is that the mouse is not on the table.

J-Ray

It's the new AirMouse! That's how big a nerd he is. 100%!

Petanca

Urban Raptor: Yeah, but neither are the keyboard, CDs, or webcam. The whole thing is in a state of motion, so everything is kind of up in the air and all over the place. Thanks, everybody!

looks a whole lot like this to me. Under "Our Work" and it's the Yoohoo - Burnt Rubber Summer (on the rubix cube thing closest one to the images 2 box)

Not saying you copied just very similar.

p.s. not sure if this person was tributing Ed Roth or if Ed Roth was the illustrator either.

Well yeah, there's a lot of Ed Roth-style stuff out there. But this is a parody, in that it's taking the original spirit of the illustrations, which was a Hot Rodder gearhead mentality, and juxtaposing it with the opposite; Nerd Culture.

Change that Star Trek logo into a Horde or Alliance WoW logo and you get twice the mileage. (plus, it's nerd 2.0!)

It'd be a little nicer on a different color shirt, but not nearly as nerdy. I can't wait to spill Dr. Pepper on it, It's glorious!
