About my design
by Jahoosawa   
This design also looks great in all black. It also looks good on just about any T-shirt color. The notes at the end probably aren't in D minor but it rolls off your tongue better than most scale names. This would be a great "Loves Threadless" competition to win because Iron and Wine's music played a major roll in how I came to be with my special someone. Vote $5!

I would love to see an actual key signature--also, if the notes were actually from a song, it would be a cool inside joke for musicians. Still, really cool. $4

This is actually the design i came up with when my high school asked me to design our orchestra tshirts. I knew people would end up playing the last few notes so i made them the stereotypical chinese song (with no name) because our orchestra will be the only highschool orchestra from America playing at the 2008 Olympics in China.

Wait, are you saying this design has already been used by your high school?

styld on Sep 16 '07
could you have more measures? have them fill the entire shirt?
Jahoosawa
   Jahoosawa on Sep 16 '07
This design was incorperated into the design for my school along with some others.

I considered filling the entire shirt but i idn't think it would look good with so much splatter. I like simplicity.

Thank you for your qustions!

It's quite nice, though I think it would look even better on a much lighter background colour.

Cool design. And it does happen to be in D minor, if you care

I think it would stand out better against a lighter color, perhaps natural? Also, i agree it should be maybe one more measure or some other measures staggered and placed at random on the shirt, maybe even going on to the other side? Also, maybe make the final nots not so perfect with some of the splatter effect still on them, but noticeable enough that you can see it's clearly a note? Other than those things, this would get a 4$. Still a great concept.

i really like it, but it needs to be on a lighter shirt (perhaps cream or light grey?).

the design could be lower, but i like it
Also -- colored tshirt is great, but lighter might work better. I'm NOT for a bland color, though.

   Jahoosawa on Sep 17 '07
I'd prefer to have this shirt printed on a shade of red, but it would look good on other bright colors. I deffinately don't want this on natural or something bland like that.

I would be in love, but those last two notes look a little too square-y for me.
silverstar8403
silverstar8403 on Sep 17 '07
i like the idea, but i would like to see more notes and more sensible notes.
Jahoosawa
   Jahoosawa on Sep 17 '07
I've put a lot of thought into how many measures and how many splatters vs clean notes. If there were any more measures they would have to be even smaller to fit on the chest of a t-shirt. If i were to use the front and the back you wouldn't be able to see the transformation from splatter to notes. This is the best way to present this idea on a Tshirt.
PointWellTaken
PointWellTaken on Sep 17 '07
hmmm... i kno i said this in critiques but i think the transformation from splatter to notes is too quick... i love the concept though... soooo... 4

looks great! the dark red background might give too little contrast against black

Most of the comments seem to be about color. Remember Threadless almost always changes the color from the original submission so if you'd like this design in any color scheme please vote $5!

I'd LOVE this shirt, but yea... I don't like the ruby/red color.
It'd look really black and white. =]

hey man i think the bg of the shirt ought to be white so that the notes and all which is in black will be prominent =) Nice work though, 4 stars.

I like how the first pair of eighth notes look like. All notes should look like that when reading music, like in jazz class. I'd want one in bass clef (Tuba player). Theres not enough stuff for use tube players.

Actually, you outlined a C major chord (A minor), Usually I don't like music notes on any clothing, but this is done well. Good job. I like it on red because it looks kind of like melted wax

J-Man,

Hello from Unk. This message is coming to you from Chicago, where I am currently sitting in the Threadless Store typing on their cool I-Mac. They are having a class soon, so I'll keep it short. Are there any shirts you would suggest that I purchase? I think your design is the best. You rock. Talk to you soon.

Unk

P.S. -- you should visit Chicago sometime. The architecture is awesome, and you would really enjoy the Art Institute.

I'm not buyin' that it's in d minor. At all. Can't establish ANY key for certain with what's given. You need at least another measure with definite diatonic notes in d minor...sharps, naturals, maybe a visible key signature.

I applaud you for the idea and the application, but as a musician, I would not buy this shirt in its current state.

What's funny is the splatter thingy obscures the clef to see what key signature it's in, so it isn't in D Minor.

Everyone here seems to have written only about music. To me, this shirt is more about the inter-relationship between music and art. Being a painter who paints to music, this shirt makes a lot of sense to me on a deep level. In fact, I just joined Threadless only so I could say this. It's a very nice, well-done shirt. A piece of art about the arts!

I'm new to this threadless thang... I'm wondering, how can one go about requesting a design, like his one, get made as an art print?

Cuz I'd kill for this to be framed in my house! TOTALLY DOPE DESIGN. :-D
