I like this. I like the one w/the design more on the right-hand side of the shirt.

I like the design but not so much on the shirt. Still I'll give you a 5 for the design!

What if part of the notebook paper was crumbled/distressed to give it more of a 3d effect. just a thought. Like it, 5

Great design, very nicely done. Like others I'm not sure how well it works on a shirt though. But between your two placements I like centered.

i like this a lot, and i like paperboy a lot, the themes of the designs are different, ergo, i didn't really think too much of the paperboy until you mentioned it smitty. :3

Topjamen said "ergo". I haven't heard or seen that phrase since the Matrix Architect tried to talk his way out of a totally unsaveable and needlessly convuluted plot!

Regarding this design, I don't think many people will get the pun because the paper is swinging, but since it's just a starting off point for the design anyway, i don't think most people will care about that. The shirt and design elements just don't seem to mesh very well together. It looks like others dig this, so good luck to you and them trying to ge this printed. I just wish i had some helpful hints as how to improve this, but i cant seem to think of any.

thank you guys for your feedback, I will look into the distressing the paper idea and see what I can do to play around with it

It's creative, but I wouldn't wear it for some reason.

This is cool and clever. BUT the fact that the paper on the shirt is just a block, its boring. Maybe you could make the top of the paper cut to look like the outline of the top of trees or somthing.

Isn't that technically "pulling paper?"

Still a clever thought :D

psherman42 on May 06 '07
i like the idea but physically isn't really plausible unless its like StaticFactory said and hes puling paper
Smitty McGillicutty
Smitty McGillicutty on May 06 '07
ok, pulling paper it is.

even though paperboy is already printed, this one is great and two designs like that aren't enough to make it cleche. I would wear this.

Something's not right about that man swinging the child.
Felixe

I like the concept, but something is weird. Can't tell if the perspective or the sizes.
Cinnamingirl
Cinnamingirl on May 09 '07
i think it would look better placed at the bottom... the center is kinda weird...

Center fplacement definitely and a $5 from me.

thanks so much for the feed back. And Jemae, I am so sorry for what is happening with your work being stolen, good luck trying to get them to stop, but I think it will be hard.
