About my design

by the first frame
This is my first ever design for threadless.

I work for a new company under the name of a famous font.



WEBSITE SOON!

A lil' too much promotion for the type (because of the movie?) -- but this is some highclass pro stuff for an 16 year old!

I think it's great!

I think the joke is pretty obvious, unless there is something else I am missing.

Man, people love helvetica. I've yet to see that documentary though.

the documentary is cool.



About the design, it would be better if you could find a way to improve the message in such a way that you don't need the word 'helvetica' in there.

This is nothing like the design you accused of ripping you off. Shit happens when you make shirts about the second-most overused font in human history.

profit.

Probably Times is the most-used, but it has its legitimate place in the world, so "most-used" may not necessarily translate to "overused". I was thinking more along the lines of Comic Sans.

Very nice design, but the world's supply of Helvetica jokes is running out fast.

I really like this a lot. Since it is a type shirt, it really should be kerned... I have to agree with Tesco. I'll $5 in anticipation of you kerning it.

It's great when people give praise to well designed type. Love the idea, I'm not sure about the shirt.

I would buy this and wear it until the seams wore out and it fell off my body.

Hey, maybe it's me missing some sort of irony but I personally think the guy under the text does NOT look good for 50. He does however look GREAT for 90.



Otherwise it's cool.

Comic Sans...YUCK, I just threw up a little .... the concept is cool...not a fan of the design or typography...coming from a designers POV it is pretty weak. I agree it would be stronger without helvetica written on it or maybe just way smaller.

is this supposed to be a knock off of Barbara Kruger? sorry but this looks too much like her work.

jeez pinup-artist that's really reaching.



Throwing accusations around is truly becoming absurd on this site. Nothing is truly new ppl, nothing. I can show you an entire poster book that employs Helvetica. Close your eyes and pick a page, there, you've got a solid case for "plagiarism"
