Nice. Reminds me of this book I have called "Warning!" which just basically has all of these idiotic warning signs like these. Only they're real. It's awesome, and I love this shirt because of it. And I like the red.

very clever... $5 + $5

but do they really have to warn you that an elephant could step on you and crush you?

This is great! Did you design all the little icons or is it an existing dingbat font?
helo
helo on Feb 06 '07
It needs a zoom feature so we can look at all of it

( is there a symbol of a couple hitting it from the back ?
located at the lower left corner of the overall skull's nose hole)
rudra
rudra on Feb 06 '07
i'm not a big fan of skull tees - or clip art/dingbats - but the little symbols are funny - and there are some truely stupid REAL ones - maybe if it wasn't red/white, but a subtler color combo

LeRoi on Feb 06 '07
Don't center it, please. I'd put it up on the pec, and slightly slanted. And perhaps change the colour of the tee?
vonbrandis
   vonbrandis on Feb 07 '07
thanks for all the comments guys. this is not clip-art, but i redrew them one by one from photographs that have been posted in the "Stick Figures in Peril" group on Flickr. all of them real icons / signs that people have photographed.

And as for colour - black would rock. i was initially worried that it might be too pirate / goth. a bigger version of this visual is available on my Flickr page.

vonbrandis,
Click on this and let me know what that part of your design is representing. I'm not sure.
vonbrandis
   vonbrandis on Feb 07 '07
helo: that represents a stickfigure being shafted. precarious position to be in, yet it happens on a daily basis in the corporate world.
helo
helo on Feb 07 '07
that is a very dangerous position

drop the dogy style A -------can't remeber where I saw it but it
is a clothing brand thats for sure.
sk8dork
sk8dork on Feb 07 '07
i'm mostly worried about how many times things are repeated in this design. in the small image i can see the elephant from the left mirrored on the right in one of the bones.
rhayward
rhayward on Feb 07 '07
i#d prefer it on black too. and i agree with sk8dork, how many times are these repeated?
kava
kava on Feb 07 '07

coooool
but yeah, black or navy blue might look cooler
vonbrandis
   vonbrandis on Feb 08 '07
Apartment223: i hear you.

sk8dork & rhayward: yes - the elephant stands out, but no element appears more than 2x.

I love this shirt! It's the kind of thing you would keep finding new things in every time you look at it! $5

godofvengeance on Feb 09 '07
The red works. I don't know if anybody already said this, but pirates had the skull and bones on both a red and black flag. The black flag meant they'd rob you and take your ship, but they wouldn't kill you. However, you weren't so lucky if they were flying a red flag...
