We don't have your filthy 'zees' in our country. Oh wait a minute, we do. But they're called zeds. And they don't go there.



PS like the resub.

It should also be "too recent for my liking".

and it also should be "when you get out on parole" or "when you get paroled" I believe

I first used this idea in a printed newsletter to friends in the mid nineties... this is the same idea on a tee shirt.



People left links on the first sub to internet executions of the same concept, and while they're beautiful, I had no knowledge of them before designing the tee. There may well be a postcard (or several) and maybe a double-decker bus. It's... just... that... I... haven't... seen.... them (ugh, exhausted sigh after fielding repeated allegations of plagiarism).



I'm a designer. I'm not omnipotent. There are - amazingly enough - things in the universe of which I am ignorant.



I'm happy to consider a "z" version for our US-based buyers. God bless 'em.

Good pickup on "recently". Thanks.

If you prefer one of the colour combinations, please blog which one. Thanks :)

It's a little bland. to be perfectly honest, if I spend the time reading this off of someone's shirt, I would like to be surprised/offended at least once, please.

grahamjrees on Feb 12 '08
...whereas in the first stuff I was asked for a more positive version :)

grahamjrees on Feb 12 '08
sub, not stuff. D'oh.

Screw the adding a Z! I'm a US buyer and prefer the S to a Z.

grahamjrees on Feb 13 '08
Consider the Z screwed ;)

should the heading be 'hello friend' or something seeing as you would be seeing them face to face, not writing to them.



and yes, ignore the americans with their 'zee's' and their u-deficient 'colours'!!!



cool design btw.

Very nice re-submit, much improved...I like the light yellow better than the bright yellow.



The only one I don't get is the "in the last election my candidate..." part. I'm telling them about my life, not the election.

Point taken re election. In the last federal elections in Australia, my sitting member lost their seat. He was the Prime Minister, so it was stunning politically, whoever you voted for. And pleeease let's not open THAT can of worms :)

I'd like it much more without the Threadless plug.
grahamjrees
grahamjrees on Feb 14 '08
No, it's not a design perfected by Knock Knock (whoever they are) but then I already said that.

also not a big fan of the threadless plug. how does this shirt being printed by threadless make it better than a phone call?

The threadless comment is tongue-in-cheek :)
