Because it's missing "u". Missing you, thus a heart. :)

Keen idea, but unfortunately, the V looks like a U.

make a U-shaped space where the U should have been. Otherwise I think it's kind of cute. Maybe make the V a little less rounded on the bottom.

I agree with Sunshine69, it would look better if it was more obvious that the "U" was missing.

Hello, its called "missing u" because the "u" is missing. The "U" that looks like a v is indeed a v.

Cute idea :D I think a u-shaped hole would be better, too.

The title of the shirt makes no difference when you're wearing it around. Without looking at the title, I didn't get that U was missing. The V is rounded underneath and looks like a U. Also adding to the confusion is the other letter in many different colors. I don't know what the solution to that is. Letters all one color would be boring. I love that the letters form a heart shape.

Well, hmm. It's cute, but very busy of a design. Most people won't be able to catch it on just walking by. To clarify that the U is missing, perhaps do something like a dotted outline and make the V all angular. Also, if there was a way to place the U closer to the center, I'd suggest doing that. It is the focal point, in an inverted kind of way. The placement on the shirt is a bit high up and tucked away too. Bring it down to about where you'd place your hand while saying the pledge of allegiance or something, cause right now it's wrapping around the shoulder.

i like it but i think you should put "im missing U" on the shirt then it would be perfect

Yes, point the "V" at the bottom, it does look like a "U".



But that's really cute.

I like it.

And the simplicity of it.

This is an excellent idea, I just wonder whether anyone will get it without knowing the title...
amoamasamat
amoamasamat on Mar 13 '07
This is such a great idea! It isn't immediately apparent, but I think people would be able to get it without the title if they took a second. It would be nice if the V looked more like a V, but I think it's still obvious that the U is missing.



FANTASTIC idea. :) 5$

madeline_g89 on Mar 13 '07
ok, i like the idea...but why not make it say something instead?? And the whole 'missing you' thing...cool idea, but unless someone explains it, i doubt anyone will get it

alancaster on Mar 13 '07
So sweet. I really like this. I'd definitely buy it. But make the V more pointed.

i think the colors are a little random. make them more symbolic?

ugh, no. I really dislike this. Soooo cheesey and ridiculously trite. I can't think of a single person I know who'd wear this - and I go to art school for crying out loud.



to be constructive though - maybe put a dotted like square where the U should be or something. Draw attention to the fact that the U is missing so people will understand it.

bobmi on Mar 15 '07
Well, obviously lots of people would wear it, because there are people saying they want it. It doesn't take that long to understand that it is an alphabet, and my eyes were immedietly drawn to the space where there is a "u" missing.

Though it may be a little cheesy, there is nothing wrong with that, and I think this is a cute idea. I'm not sure about the tee-shirt colors, though. None of them looking very good with the design.

I like the idea and I think it is pretty clear that the U is missing. I also like the letters arranged in the heart shape, but I am not a fan of the colors of the letters. Would consider something more in line with the sentiment.
eaglejon
eaglejon on Mar 15 '07
The idea is cute, but yeah, I didn't catch the "missing U" thing until I read the title...

i love it! but i think the heart would look better in the middle of the shirt rather than on the side

Great idea, I'm thinking more blues and stuff. I dunno, the colors of the letters aren't that great.
Cinnamingirl
Cinnamingirl on Mar 15 '07
I feel like the colors draw your eyes into stripes in everything but the first line - maybe randomize them a lil more?

Digdag88 on Mar 16 '07
i dont' think that a u shaped hole would be good, just a v that was more pointy at the bottom. i have a feeling dumb people would be like but the u's there..no, that's a u shaped hole.



anyway.

different colored letters?

it's a really good idea.

i think it is obvious the u is missing. sweet idea.

anybody who knows the alphabet knows that it is a "v"

freaking cute~! but to show that the U is missing i say leave a dotted outline of the letter like - - - - - -

This is such a great idea; but maybe better for a card or something, not a tee. Very cute. I'm scoring high because you deserve it.

I didn't get it until you explained it! Maybe if you just outlined the U but didn't fill it in? Then it would be a $5! For now I give 4 :)
