About my design

by ChunderMan
Thanks for everyone's comments on my original design. I've tried to address all of the concerns from the original. For all of the Office UK fans out there, the mug has been replaced with your more traditional stapler. I made the colors to the overall image more vibrant. I added a plate to give the image more platey-ness. I also added highlights to the Jell-o because I like things shiny. And finally, I changed the color of the shirt. I like the black the best, but the navy compliments it well, and the red makes it seem more powerful, (or something). Anyway... enjoy!

I love the fact that it is a red stapler...



I've seen the shirt done on glakware, but didn't get a chance to buy it, so I would totally buy this one.

Its not too many people doing the same design, its one design thats been submitted, approved upon and made even better looking than before... it happens from time to time. There was another submission before that was a mug, and that looked boring and not as well done. I havent even seen the office, and this looks cool enough to buy! $5. And Im gonna start watching the office. :P

Way to take all of the concerns and complaints from the ladt attempt at this Office in-joke and really show the improvements this sub needs to be a Threadless winner! i really like this, despite the shirt having a better home at bustedtees.com or nerdyshirts.com . I hope this makes it through 4$

I'd say just eliminate the red shirt.

Otherwise, the simple design is a brilliant piece of work. It's the bees knees for sure.

I like this style of illustration. I don't mind the colour scheme either - I think it looks best on navy shirt, because of the complementary colours of the background and the graphic.

Very cool, but glarkware already did this shirt a long time ago.

I love it but I think the lines on the jell-o need to be in the front as well...right now it looks like the stapler is hovering in front of the jell-o.
Scoobydooto
Scoobydooto on May 07 '07
I agree with the above comment. One line should be positioned in front of the stapler so it looks like it's inside the jell-o. Other than that, amazing improvement, kiddo! :-D

an_gelc on May 07 '07
this has potential.. it seems that you just inserted the stapler in the middle.. it would be cool to see the the stapler is actualy inside the jello.

another line in front of the stapler, put it on red. and then perfecto

Blue's the way to go! Very cool... maybe even better with lines in front of the stapler too....
ChunderMan
ChunderMan on May 08 '07
I did it originally with the lines in front of the stapler, but it looked all distracting and wrong. It's simply more of a mental perception thing. If the first time you see it you think the stapler's in the jell-o, then you'll always see it that way. But of course the opposite is also true.

Me and my whole family are fans of the Office... If this is printed, I'll probably get s few as gifts. PS- I like it in the navy.

that show is too funny. I like it in the navy too ( perfect complement)

I agree that the black is best. The navy fades the colors a little and the red is far too much for my retinas (What!? I CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER YOUR SHIRT).



But I adore this design! I loved the original idea, as well. The highlights also give the jello depth. Awesom job. ^_^ It's cute, whimsical, brightly colored and very clean. Neato!

Again, not to be a downer, but I finally found the glark design:

Of course, not a red Swingline, but what are you going to do, it still sadly means a low probability of printing.
