I also liked this design on the pink and yellow shirts. The softer, more feminine colors mixed with the subject matter made it all the more impactful.
|
 |
beautiful. beautiful. beautiful. beautiful.
i was never a fan of the destructive shirts with loads of murderous intent... but this one is spectacularly designed, so i neeeeeded to make an exception :) |
 |
awesome. just awesome. i just love your blood butterflies.
|
|
"see mom, i told you death can be beautiful!"
"Darling, where's his Ritalin?" :D ahh! print. *5. |
|
5....this is gorgeous
|
|
i agree with all. it's beautiful.
even though i hate blood and head explosions. |
|
Nice stencil work, are you going to put it up on the streets? You'd get mad props.
Rad design too. 5. |
 |
mrfunkleberry on Dec 06 '03 fantastic, i too am not a great fan of blood, guns, etc.
but i want this, i really want this. |
|
wow...this is beautiful...yeah..I agree with you. Softer colours would add more of an impact. keep the strong red and black but change the shirt colour? light yellow? soft baby blue?
|
|
i love it.
|
|
one word - morbid
|
|
oowie... awesome shirt this gets a 5 but i dont think id wear it too much head getting blown off
|
|
everyone else said what i wanted to but how could i not comment on a shirt this great....5
|
|
this shit is hard.
|
|
yeah cool!
Blow all your colour critz, it would work on any t-shirt, thats the beauty of such a flipout design. |
|
good stuff nice use of space
reminds me of the battle royal tees |
 |
I love the butterflies
|
|
LOVE THIS.
|
 |
wow, that's really beautiful
|
|
I love the design, and it's probably going to get printed...just can't decide whether I like the placement/fullshirt design...
|
|
I gotta half stock
|
|
intense.
|
|
Powerful.
|
|
never thought i'd like a a T with butterflies, or guns... but together thay are stunning.
|
|
CREEP!!
this is so darn pretty |
|
FUCKING GRATE CONCEPT
|
|
GRATE? I mean GREAT
|
|
One of the best designs I've seen on this site.
Absolutley awesome, Banksy would be proud. |
|
andreemelawi on Dec 08 '03 it is such a great design :)
|
|
haha, banksy would definitly be proud! I absolutely LOVE this t-shirt! (buy + 5)
|
|
you are wonderful. this is one of the best designs i've seen. i don't have much money but i will definitely find a way to buy this.
|
 |
this is absolutely wonderous.
|
|
print this...now
|
|
wow this is absolutly BEAutiful...i really hope this is printed...i'd buy it right away. 5+
it's just....wow... |
|
Wow, what an impactful shirt. That is amazing. Not the greatest shirt to wear everyday, but definately one with a statement.
|
|
Wow, no wonder so many comments.
Not sure if i'd actually wear it, but the design is beautiful and I'm sure loads people would wear it. |
 |
flembo on Dec 11 '03 fucking rad.
|
|
i really like the transition. nice job!
|
|
This is by far the coolest thing I have ever seen on a shirt. 5x5x5xx5x5x5xinfinity
|
|
it's a great design but it feels very unoriginal. guns are too done. sick of them.
the concept looks like Banksy and his many many imitators. |
|
Great design, but she kinda has a manly torso and arms... or is it just me?
|
 |
stotty01 on Dec 15 '03 Amazing, best design i've seen so far in terms of visual effect. 10/10
|
|
I'd buy it. Awesome design.
|
|
amazing
|
|
just saw this........definitely like it......but the shading could be better, i know u worked hard on it, sorry, but this design demands perfect execution (no pun n tended).......being a guy, i don't like the butterfly by the neck.....great addition to the pile of possible prints though.......i'll be up there too, not yet obviously......
|
|
Just... wow.
|
|
amazing, i would buy this in a hearbeat.
|
 |
excellent!!!!!!
|
|
awesome. id buy this.
|
|
I would buy this
|
|
no, how can i buy this?
|
|
PRINT!
|
|
im so glad this isnt a poison the well shirt
i <b>love</b> it. |
|
PRINT THIS DAMNIT!!!!!
|
|
beautiful design, please print it i want one!
|
|
I don't think a single person wanted anything on this changed, 9r!|\|7 7h!5 !!!
|
 |
absolutely tremendous concept... really beautiful if not extremely morbid... print this! my only comment would be possibly work on the figure a little, the tones... This definately deserves to be sitting at number one shirt!
|
|
PRINT IT!
|
|
well im glad they printed this, but what the heck is with the red background? that's awful! once its sold out there should be another color option. its not like threadless will bear any responsibility.
|
|
Got to agree with irobot- why is it printed on a red tee? It really dissipates the impact of the design- you have you squint and stare to figure out what's going on against the red.
|
|
PsychicTeeth on Mar 04 '04 I hate that this tee got printed. I'm sorry, it's just too... obvious. Bah.
|
|
tee printed on red sucks i was looking foward to this tee too
|
|
man. i clicked "id buy this" and i had every intention of doing so right away but making it red was easily the worst color choice possible. part of its appeal is in the shocking yet gorgeous and elegant nature of it. if you guys reprint it after its 1st run in a diff color ill get it (tan or silver or baby blue would be nice) but until then...damn. doesnt do justice to such a great design.
|
|
WTH HAPPENED!?! red tshirt? ::sigh::
|
|
You guys are all soooooo right! MAN! I almost cried when I saw it was on red. Pleeeasee!!! print it on natural/beige/sand...white could be alright, but any light and pastel/faded colours that will allow the contrast to shine through.
I'll buy two, no three!!! I'm on my knees here!! |
|
I just want to agree with the people above...I love this design and would absolutely get 1 (or 2...presents for friends!) if this was on the beige or silver or some other lighter color. As is...just cant do it yet. Maybe you could do a limited edition run real quick? I dunno, just do something!
|
|
yeah the red does suck cuase you cant even see the drawing on it..
|
|
kinda makes a horrable death look beautiful? i dont think i can pull this shirt off but good job u sick bastard
|
|
the concept is really nice, it´s so depresive but at the same time so positive. i´m not sure about the position of the picture in the t-shirt.
|
|
YIPPEEEE! Jump for joy at the sand print. Lalala ordering ordering. But seriously, thank you for coming through on this one. Even more respect than before!!! Love, man.
|
|
hell yes! i bought a khaki one, as promised! thanks!
|
|
jbyron on Mar 23 '04 I just wanted to give my appreciation to everyone who liked my design.
I haven't been able to top it yet, but I'm trying. Anyway, thanks to everyone who left feedback, good or bad - I'm just glad it made an impact. And yea . . . I almost cried when I saw it on red too. But hey, they came though with the khaki (& the red is already discounted to $10). Thanks again to threadless & the threadless community. Now if they would only pay me so I can get one. - jbyron |
|
This shirt is simply amazing...
I bought a sand one, and I can't say enough good things... |
|
Please print more. I want a khaki one... bad. Good design. Peace.
|
|
print more! i need one of these!!!
|
|
its hot
|
|
I got the light blue girly tee, soo coo.
you do great designs man |
|
when i first saw this shirt i knew i must have but alas they are out of my size.
|
|

|
|

|

|
|

|
|

|
jbyron on Jul 19 '04 prints available here: http://www.gutterpark.com/gpmerchmenu.html

|
|

|
|

|
|
please reprint in small
|
|
Glad I got one.
Great work. |
 |
I really want this shirt. I hope they'll have more coming out in diff. colors.
|
 |
for the love of all things expressive i love this shirt... would buy in a second.
|
 |
Reprint please :(
|
 |
how about white for guys?
|
|
fukin brilliant, dark impactful cooncept
|
|
yes bloody brilliant...some may say too macabre I say veracious macabre.
|
|
the movie "flowers in the attic" should the shirt be related to it in any way? or did you just rip the title? jbyron, I know the likliness of you seeing this is pretty rare, but just in case... |
|
I love this shirt and am hoping it will be reprinted.
|
 |
I'm hoping it will be reprinted, too. This is my favorite shirt that has been chosen by threadless.
|
|
reprinted and i bought it ;)
|
 |
Just snagged this one in medium.. saw so few left on the stock chart, I had to. Good stuff, I'll be uploading my photo of it in 2-5 days ;D
|
|
Holy Shit!
I'm buying this son of a gun... |
|
like many people here I was never a big fan of bloody and violent shirts, they had become to commercial. But this shirt is stunning, the designs symbolism is so poetic.
|
|
i want a poster.
|
|
so... did this ever get printed.
i want it. i demand a recount. i want it. |
|
fuck man thats awesome i wish you did it on a proper t shirt picture thing but awesome job...
|
|
It Did Get Printed. And It Is, In My Opinion, The Best Design I Have Ever Seen On Any T-Shirt. Ever.
|
|
This shirt seems totally emo to me, but it was the shirt that got me linked up with Threadless. I bought several shirts while waiting for this one to be reprinted (it was so popular, I knew it would be eventually). Fortunately it only took two weeks before the magic reprinting notice! I'm wearing it now. One of those designs that just sticks in your mind forever. I love it so much.
|
 |
I ordered this shirt in dark gray, but I have to say when I requested a reprint I was really hoping they'd reprint the khaki. I like it a lot more with the shirt being lighter than the design. It's still wonderful and I'll like it, but.....just not as much. Not your fault.
|
|
simply the best t-shirt I've ever seen.
|
|
For the next reprint, please offer a basic black tee, 2C white/red print as well. That'd be awesome!
|
 |
Love this shirt
Bought the black with metallic silver guy A lighter shade (maybe white) back color with the guy in black and red butterflies would be the more favorable to me. |
 |
you have a lot of skill creating a powerful image...
if i can only be half as good as you that would be awesome. although i like the design a lot, i wouldnt buy it because of its suicidal tendencies... just not a good idea for me to wear. im just wondering, did threadless pay you more than what is normally paid out? because you deserve it considering its been reprinted a bazillion times. if only you were getting royalties, youd be a rich man. good job. |
|
Please can you make this T shirt in a small and medium size for women!
|
|
black background, white girl, and turquoise/teal butterflies.
|
|
Reminds me of Sin City, which is an awesome movie. Really want this teeshirt.
|
 |
fucking rip off.
|
|
wait, scratch that, it was actually made by the same street artist who did the graffiti
|
 |
I MUST have it.
Please? |
 |
:}
|
 |
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v24/deadpeach/layouts/L73.jpg
verrrrrrrry interesting. |
 |
My father painted a self portrait of himself just like this while he was suffering from severe depression. But instead of butterflies, it was bubbles. I really like this.
|
|
going back to what somebody said earlier...is this t-shirt design related to the film flowers in the attic?? or have you nabbed the title lol =]
|
 |
the only short i have, which random ppl on the street start talking to me and asking a'bout the shirt. it just rockz!!!!!
|
|
OMG when is this back. I want one!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
 |
very cool. waiting for reprinting in black !!!
|
 |
Arg why am i always too late for the ones i really want! please tell me this will be reprinted?
|
 |
i want it back!
|
 |
i hate this design.
|
|
jbyron on Aug 17 '06 Yet the design loves you.
|
 |
so... is THIS where this originated?
If so, then I must tip my knit cap to you. I hope you don't mind, but I've used this picture as many a layout background on MySpace. |
 |
i bought this shirt. it comes tomorrow, im so excited. its so symbolic. :]
|
 |
Immediate purchase. Coolest shirt ev0r. Something about blood and girls. Hmm....
|
|
not a fan of blood and guts, but there something beautiful, and peceful about this shirt.
love it 5 |
 |
I'll be the millionth person to comment...
I've seen someone wearing this shirt before. :) |
|
a lot of my friends have this shirt. and of course its not fun when a lot of people have the same shirt you do. but this is an xception. i bought this shirt yesterday at the ten dollar sale. awesome. i was so happy that it was still in my size.
|
 |
:B
my sister bought this shirt. |
|
fantastic design please print in blue for guys it looks amazing in the blue the contrast really works
|
|
i personally love this shirt too, especially in black. however i would love to see blood red doves flying out instead of butterflies as doves are a symbol of peace. just my two cents. :)
|
 |
My favorite shirt design on the site, the only thing stopping me from buying the shirt is the pink ink, Id definitely get it if there were a black ink on black shirt combo.
|
|
err excuse me, red ink on black shirt
|
|
reprint plz. this is a killer shirt, nice job
|
 |
Maybe I'm just crazy and not paying attention, but does Threadless allow you to add favorite designs to your profile? If it does, this one is DEFINITELY a favorite. I've loved it forever.
|
 |
OlliRudi on Jan 12 '07 it must have been so easy back then.
|
 |
http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i96/Darkohl/38d2d0e4fae9ut9me9.jpg
Anyone know of a connection here? |
 |
i love this design so much!!!! i bought it on black, and it's my favorite threadless shirt!
|
 |
i just bought it. haha. it came today.
|
|
um.. i think i've seen this shirt printed by another brand.. i think it was "north dragon". if you dont believe me search "north dragon shirt" on ebay.com
|
|
so is this design being copied, or was it copied to begin with?
I ask because the link I posted looked like a painting that someone did. |
|
lol. im wearing this shirt RIGHT NOW.
|
 |
LAWL DATS HILARIOUS.
|
 |
I'd kill for a reprint of this. Absolutely amazing.
|
 |
did north dragon steal this shirt, or was this shirt stolen from north dragon??
|
|
you have no idea how much this design gets ripped off.. seen it bootleg printed in shops, on markets, sprayed on walls.. submitted as designs for contests etc.
you've created an icon. |
|
Please print this one! PLEEEAASEEEE!
|
 |
WHY do you keep bumping designs that have already been printed and ask for them to be printed?
Besides, this emo-as-hell design has been printed so many times it's been RETIRED. Go buy an eBay knockoff. |
|
please? :$
|
|
xD
|
|
*headdesk*
They already printed it. Many, many, many times. |
|
It's amazing. It's the one design i absolutely MUST have!!!
I love how you can interpret it however you like. |
 |
xiv on May 30 '07 ill sell you one
|
|
... my next tattoo!!
|
 |
3.79.. has anything scored even close to that since 2006?
|
 |
Probably not.
Now if you tried to post this you would get people saying "WHAAA! This suicide shirt offends me!" and you would get a bunch of controversy then it would end up with a 2.10 or something like that. Sigh.. |
|
Or just a load of people saying "wow, this sure is some emo shit". At least, if it were submitted in the current horrendous pink-on-black colour scheme.
|
 |
jpiatt on Jun 30 '07 wait...
what's this design? I've never seen it before |
|
I had this shirt a few years ago, then my ex-girlfriend stole it. I want another one. My vote for reprint.
|
 |
did a band use this design for something?
|
 |
sonmi on Aug 10 '07 yeah, about a zillion have.
|
|
ah. someone posted a pic of this long ago in my myspace comments, but i had no idea it was from here, much less a tee.
|
 |
this is such an awesome t-shirt, I'm so going to buy this...
|
|
People rip this off everywhere. nice to find out who originally did it! awesome. my favorite.
|
|
Who did what first?
I'd really want to know. http://never-effects.deviantart.com/art/Zaccharia-quot-DIVORCE-quot-24164339 |
|
never mind. :)
|
|
Here's a rip:
http://www.pdxdnb.com/archives/2006/03/27/000341/ |
|
I love this design !!
I just wish it finally gets reprinted, i've been waiting for a long time now... |
|
I love the design, especially printed in black background!
|
|
I really like this design on black, and I'm waiting patiently for a reprint so I can buy it, but I really wish it were called "Butterflies in the Attic" instead because every time I read the title it reminds me of that awful Flowers in the Attic series, and is very off-putting :(
|
|
Red, Pink, and Black
|
 |
Actually this is a rip too, this was done before, so the whole idea is copied, some say its work of Banksy graffiti artist, some say its from japan, anyways this is a copy :) But at least now i know where i can buy one :)
|
|
jbyron on May 19 '08 Not a rip dogboy - hate to be overly sensitive - but i am the OG.
|
 |
as much as everyone says its been ripped off and its all over i cant find it. this thread has been goign on for 4+ years and it goes from "this is an awesome shirt!" to "please reprint!" it is obviously a greatly wanted shirt, i know i would buy a few. not sure if it will ever be reprinted again (its in the not forgotten section) but i have put every vote i can into reprinting. i love the design and would feel great getting it from the site that made it big, i would feel better if JByron's site sold my size (props for keeping it up). still thinking on the print you got up.
|
 |
Reminds me of my uncle who did that 2 years ago. Too bad butterflies didn't come out instead....
|
|
Basic rip of 30 seconds to mars:
http://images.play.com/covers/5446480x.jpg |
|
Sorry looking at the date of the first post it looks like they might have ripped you
|
|
Ok nice to know.. at least i can dismiss all the rumors now..
good luck.. |
 |
ivejustquitsmoking on Jul 29 '08 I see that the orig design wasnt in black... :) congrats for the reprint
|
 |
i'm so freaking glad this got reprinted. so glad. and in black as well, excellent, fantastic, i just ordered it. hope threadless does a good job on it, my last shirt looked great.
|
 |
LOL@ taylorBA.
fuckin newb |
 |
i cant believe this got printed! how many times has this been done before?! i have seen this image way too much! this is ridiculous. isnt there a trademarking rule or something? you think this guy just drew this up one day?! and now hes getting a bunch of money for copying. wow this site sucks
|
 |
tracerbullet on Jul 29 '08 GOD I KNOW IT'S LIKE BLAH BLAH REPRINT BLAH BLAH FASCIST COMMUNIST REPUBLICAN SOCIALIST MEDIA SWINE ALL UP IN THE BUTTERFLIES AND GUNS AND THE NRA IS LIKE "NO! GUNS GOOD NOT BAD!" AND COPYING PLAGIARISM BUT NO ONE SEEMS TO CARE ABOUT THE ANIMALS!
|
|
Thank god !!! Congrats for the reprint
|
 |
Robsoul on Aug 01 '08 platok9, you obviously have NOT read anything that was previously posted prior to you. Please do because jbyron does not deserve to be called a plagiarizer.
|
|
hmmm...makes me think of "Bullet with Butterfly Wings" by The Smashing Pumpkins.
great shirt, probably going to get this one as soon as PayPal starts working for me... |
|
Requesting people to request reprints for medium guys' .
|
|
Pretty tshirt - my friend bought me it for Christmas, it arrived yesterday and I'm wearing it right now. Thanks for designing it :)
|
 |
I refuse to buy this shirt.
|
 |
tesco on Mar 16 '09 lol
|
 |
)o; |
 |
I have a photo of this design as graffiti on a wall in Sydney
|
 |
beautiful... love it
|
 |
i saw this in one of my design book,wif the same color and pic,
|
|
he is a plagiator,seriously!!dis design obviously same like in my design,the shading,blood and butterfly,!!omg!whats wrong wif dis...T.T
|
 |
This shirt was my background and it was a threadless design this entire time!?
|
|
I really like this shirt. Did 30 sec to Mars stole your design or did you allow them to use it? They have a shirt almost identical.
Or does the design exist longer then you claim it to be? No prejudice here, just wondering... |
|
wow. you made a lot of money on a banksy piece
|
|
wow you made a lot of money on a banksy piece.
|
|
jbyron on Aug 11 '09 banksy? i like that guy.
i can only hope people are saying to him - "wow, you made a lot of money on jason byron nelson piece." yea, probably not. |
|
Hrrmmm.... I think I prefer the "30 sec to Mars" version. It's a little more refined. I preferred the way that the theme was carried through the male figure, whereas here, the girl is a little too crude for my liking.
|
|
my favourite!
|
|
perona 3 has a similar concept , http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shin_Megami_Tensei:_Persona_3
where highschooler shoot self with a special gun called evoker to awaken thier self conscience to fight shadows in this funky babel tower during the midnight hour and also has symbolic butterfly throughout the story. it's really beautiful and i really loved it. i wonder if they got inspiration from this design or vice versa? |

Please reprint a different color. Perhaps deep purple. I absolutely love this design.
