why is there a guys girls kids version?
staxter
staxter on Jan 15 '08
These are different versions, not one for all.

One version for guys, one for girls and one for kids.

I submited this one since there where many comments about the last one, which seemed to be to complicated.

Have a look in the gallery.

HAHA! Oh Rubik's cube, how you confound me.

This shirt deserves to be printed.

yeah, I think it's better than the original as it's simpler, which tends to be better on a tee, otherwise you just get strangers squinting at your chest... more than usual...

I $5 this one just because of the expression "what the". I like it because you can really fill whatever you'd like in the space. My fav, "what the puke?"

glad you followed the advice, this design goes straight to the point whereas your other one was getting lost in all the different steps.

How does a Rubik's cube have different age/sexes? Bizarre.

To be honest, I think it'd be better without the text--maybe a scribble of frustration instead. Regardless, I like the concept! $4

some of the comments on this design are really... well its clear they dont understand it, despite how simple it is.



I like it, but i apprently like most of the others here, dont like the girls colours. Chuck a warmer colour our way and get rid of the green.

Loud_Little_Thing on Jan 17 '08
or white! use white insted of green. It the only colour left out on a rubix.

i dont like the what the.... part. how bout what?! or something that doesn't insinuate a bad word since it'll be available for kids too it'd be cute if a family actually got to wear it (as annoying as it would be for those that have to see the shirt thrice) otherwise i love the cube

Hey folks.

Thanks for all the lovely comments and critics, so far.

The last two and one above made me think about the design though.

Two of those were critics on the girls colors, from my point of view I really like them, but because I am not a girl, maybe my opinion isnīt really the best. My intention was to make three equivalent color schemes, therefore I think adding white instead of green may work for me. Other than that I thought about those fancy new discoish colors threadless is offering and wanted to know whether you girls would like some of those?

Now the last comment was a thing I was thinking about myself. But I guess I wonīt change that, except maybe the font since it isnīt the nicest one, but avantgarde seemed a bit overdone and helvetica to boring. But there are reasons why I want to keep the sentence as it is. First I really tried hard on solving those things by myself and often felt dissapointed, angry and annoyed, therefore stands the "what the ...", an unspoken sentence for those feelings.

Secondly I am sure noone will actually get offended by it, more than that, I am sure many will feel confirmed in their own way. And last, "what the ..." can actually stand for everything, it is up to the person reading it and deciding in their mind what the three points standing for.

In my case it is something like "kabullalbaengschinkenbrotschmierbaer".

So I hope you all like the shirt, otherwise it wonīt even be printed and we donīt need to talk about it anymore :)



p.s.: I know my skills in writing english sentences are limited, so please be so kind to ignore that. I donīt have many friends except for the cube and pickinīon me doesnīt really help (*buhuhuhuhuu*)

Wow,

seeing my last comment, that is a large one.

To summarize it.

Colorchange: sure why not, if you like something better.

The font: Yeah maybe, since my handwriting isnīt the nicest one admittedly.

The sentence: I donīt think it is necessary.

I think if it does change it should be an authentic rubik's cube color (i.e. blue, orange, white, green, yellow...)

I think the "what the" makes it funny...i would leave it in. And if people are complaining about naughty word usage than why not say what the....butterscotch!!!

I like your other design better, but I'd still like this one, only I'd prefer there to be no text on this one. It's obvious as it is, with no words :) The other one, however, is perfect as it is, and I hope it gets printed as well.
