libra1019 on Nov 13 '07

its a great design teaching you about colours and you don't have to be gay to wear it. I really hate it that everyone thinks the rainbow is only a gay symbol.

Jackanapes mk.II on Nov 13 '07

Nice!

conejitoasesino on Nov 14 '07

yeah, rainbows. they're not just for the gays.

Aytee on Nov 14 '07

Wow. I am in love with this.

Lol @ gay comments

bcrider on Nov 14 '07

conejitoasesino, that comment NEEDS to be on a t-shirt.

Vindemiatrix on Nov 14 '07

OMG I LOVE IT. $5.

SM Designs on Nov 14 '07

I like this shirt and I'm not Gay, (not that their is anything wrong with it) seinfeld. I think it would be even better if you had the knights pinky sticking out though.

Nice!

squatterjohn on Nov 14 '07

Hooray for 8 colour prints! We can finally have proper rainbows on our tees. Take that "Visible Light!" and "Afternoon Delight".

deadpuppy on Nov 14 '07

i think some people are not getting the concept here.

ROYGBIV is the spectrum: red orange yellow green blue indigo violet

and it is sometimes remembered by the phrase: Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain.

however i think this is more common in england, becuase i've always just been taught to say "Roy G. Biv" like it was a name to remember the spectrum.

deadpuppy on Nov 14 '07

so yeah, noting at all to do with homosexuality

Bramish on Nov 14 '07

Nicely done, but the outline around the hand/sword bothers me a little.

valorandvellum on Nov 14 '07

This is awesome! Love the texture treatment!

$5

indigoboo on Nov 14 '07

I've never heard that Richard of York thing. Pretty cool.

danrule on Nov 14 '07

Thanks deadpuppy, I probably should have mentioned that in my opening comment.

It's a mnemonic device to remember the color spectrum, mostly in England though.

italiansmile on Nov 14 '07

"yeah, rainbows. they're not just for the gays."

i want that to be a type tee. haha.

nikolina100 on Nov 14 '07

love it!

chelly on Nov 14 '07

Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain. thanks for that! i was wondering why the hand didn't say RB for roy biv.

great design

gamejunkie on Nov 14 '07

I love this a lot 5$

iDanSimpson on Nov 14 '07

MEEE!!!

helo on Nov 14 '07

Thanks deadpuppy for the explanation.
I've never heard of that mnemonic device before.

roadkill3d on Nov 14 '07

Perfect use of recently added palettes! $5

Sheila6 on Nov 14 '07

I flipping LOVE IT! It's just the whole rainbow=gay symbol dealy. I love rainbows but I dont want to be labeled a lesbian. It's a great design, but I'd really have to think about buying it.

bunnymaan on Nov 14 '07

Oh my god. I must have this. If it doesn't win, I'm going to print it anyway. so f***ing rad. i may wet myself

I love rainbows but I dont want to be labeled a lesbian.

HAHAH!! Who would've thought that just for wearing a color spectrum/rainbow, you're automatically labeled as a lesbian?

Anywho, I love this shirt. I'm not a lesbian but I'd wear it A LOT!!

teamnisto on Nov 15 '07

dorky sword hands!
do you love dungeons and dragons
not for me but the people love it

polynothing on Nov 15 '07

This is such a cool design! $5

BrandonB11 on Nov 15 '07

such an amazing illo and just looks fantastic on a shirt

5$$ so hard

phattman on Nov 15 '07

That's a bad ass rainbow, but I couldn't wear that where I live

ladyjessica on Nov 15 '07

OH homophobia. I'd wear a rainbow shirt just to show support for the gay community, and it'd be cute if someone assumed I was gay for wearing it! Then I could educate them both about the ROYGBIV thing, and the fact that rainbows aren't solely a gay symbol, and further that wearing a gay symbol does not necessarily make you gay! Come on straight folks, let's wear more rainbows in heterosexual communities to help people get over their rainbow/gay discomfort.

mcpoodle1 on Nov 16 '07

yayy! ladyjessica in the house!

Wonderkitten on Nov 16 '07

I love rainbow. especially 6 colors rainbow. $5!

Ava Adore on Nov 16 '07

erin_everlasting on Nov 17 '07

omg are you serious, people actually label each other because they wear visually appealing colours that just happento be visually appealing to a certain group too....

im not lesbian, haha not even close lol. but this is SO brilliant. its gorgeous, and creative and id wear it everyday and never ever take it off. $5d..... but its times like these i wish there was a superwicked awesomerer score. like a $6. that would just blow my mind ^-^

Erin Everlasting ..

"omg are you serious, people actually label each other because they wear visually appealing colours that just happento be visually appealing to a certain group too...."

LOL! The irony of this statement is classic!

The "Pride" flag signifies DIVERSITY in the LGBT community. Not because gays and lesbians find it "visually appealing"!!!

Is that kinda like an extension to the "gay gene" debate?!

I'm not trying to be mean, but that was pretty funny =)

Re Tshirt - Love it!

FRICKINAWESOME on Nov 20 '07

I had no idea of the undermeaning of this shirt....i just love violence and rainbows. Now, it's getting a 5$$, if that were possible.
