needs to be smaller, and more easily recognized as a head...maybe reposition the txt so that unsuccesful could be on one line?

so after I take comments into consideration is it customary to resubmit another, altered copy? Thanks. I'm new to this.

jmonkey (and most others), I appreciate your criticism. However, I'm sure everyone who submits designs would agree when I mention that it would be a lot more helpful if, along with your negative comments, you left some constructive ones too. For instance, what about the font is so terrible? What color other than pink would you suggest, and what size would be more appropriate. These types of comments would be much more helpful in my quest towards designing a worthy T. Mille grazie

The font makes it look a bit too congested. What if you spaced it out? Put part of the quote along the head? Another part along...somewhere else, or something like that.



The colors also don't seem to fit with the theme...

the image is defintiely too big, but is interesting. look down at yourself and imagine imagine it going completely across your torso. for the subject of the quote the color and font seems a bit cheery. that's about all for constructive criticism, we can comment, can't re-design it for you.

In high school, that shade of pink is grounds for a culture war, or massacre. Real creative though. Awesome design. A bit heavy though huh? That's genius how the back of the head looks like hair has been pulled out. It deserves a 5. i aggree about the quote, it looks a little like a text box in a power point slide show. There's no reason for it to be left justified. Maybe if it were hand written, follwing loosely the lines of the neck or hair it would be more interesting? The size is essential though. You're definitely on to something, good work man.

bad bad drawing of a head. i dont know what these other people see in it.
sounDune
sounDune on Apr 11 '04
okay, antiTheft, what about the drawing of the head is so bad? It is interesting how the people that have nothing good to say about a submission usually are content with bashing a piece and then not giving any reason why. But I respect your opinion, only wish you would be more helpful on the message board. Only a simple reason why the head is, as you say, so "bad bad." That's all I ask. Oh, and by the way. It might interest you that it's not a drawing at all, but a photo that I altered. Ciao

what the fuck are you bitches talking about? this is the ugliest piece of shit i have EVER seen. if this were to be printed EVER, i would shit myself, cry, and never come back to this site again. stop being such pansy assholes and tell the kid that this is atrocious!

Thanks, z burn it down z, you are obviously such an important and helpful member of the threadless community. Your comments are at the same time honest and insightful. I would also like to say that your design portfolio only backs up your status as a worthy source of criticism. Your single design is nothing short of groundbreaking and I am sure I'll be seeing it on rock stars and celebrities alike in the near future. Finally I would like to take this opportunity to say I look forward to all your future comments, as I am sure they will come, whether they are requested or not, but mostly when they're not. Thanks for being the integral designer and member you are.

hahahahaha first of all i already own a clothing company www.cirkleconcepts.com, second of all suck my dick, and lastly, atleast that design i submitted a year ago was more cohesive than this piece of shit. it doesnt even make sense you fuck

sounDune on Apr 12 '04
so I checked out your site and your designs, z. both speak volumes. in a more coherent and mild mannered voice than you can obviously muster. but none the less they are all i need to tell me that i should put an end to this petty bickering for i shall never, in my wildest dreams, be such an accomplished and talented artist as you so clearly are. thanks for the link to the site, here's one for you: http://therapists.psychologytoday.com/webmd/?z=1674_00000_5017_fl_01

sounDune your shirt is quite ingenius in that one gets the feeling that the person on the shirt is looking inside the wearer. The quote would be better on the neck so its only two lines and maybe a more casual font is in order. Don't be discouraged by people like z burn it down z. You just have to understand that hateration is cyclical, and he is lashing out because his shirt averaged a 1.9 so he feels he needs to justify it by bashing other's works. All of the worlds problems stem from a low self esteem. I can almost guarantee he will have another elegant comment to further give us a preview his character. Well just fine tune the shirt and you might have a winner.

in all honesty you guys must be on drugs or something because this is the worst shirt i have EVER seen. if this gets more than a 0.6 on this site i will cry. "Fine tune"? i think it needs to be scrapped completely and maybe start with a completely different design. this design is beyond saving. also, inTEK where are your submissions? oh wait, you dont have any you chicken shit. i really want to see your design abilities after your little uplifting comments. i wasn't the one who started with these personal attacks, i just stated my opinion, that this design will never in a million years be printed -- EVER. stop being so butt hurt you pansies and take it like the bitches you are by accepting that this design will never be suitable for a shirt, or even be suitable for me to wipe my ass with. also, "hateration is cyclical"? ok, first of all you are an idiot, secondly, if "hateration" were even a word, which it isn't, you're attempting to say that hate is a cycle(?) and im lashing out because of my score on a T-SHIRT SITE. wow, freud, ive never looked so deeply inside myself. thank you for opening my eyes to the cyclical "hateration" consuming me. hahaha maybe you should change your tampon you douche bag.

InTEK, thanks for the moral support. It bothers me that my submission has turned into a forum for petty bickering, although I can't say I am exempt from blame for that misfortune, as I should have simply ignored Z's original hateful remark. In my momentary distraction with this pest I had forgotten what the point of this website is. Obviously this is not some message board designed for confrontation but a place to submit had have criticized your t-shirt designs. I had forgotten for a moment. I did not expect for my very first submission to put me off on such a bad foot. However, people like Z are a problem, but it's true that problems like Z are to be found in every walk of life. I don't know what it was about my submission that sparked such hate in him/her, but I do know that that kind of lashing out is not normal and perhaps a sign, as you mentioned, of something emotionally/personally wrong with this person. But, I do not claim to be a psychologist, only a member of society and voyager in this journey we call life, and from my many experiences on the road I have encountered enough people like Z to know that they are troubled. There was no reason whatsoever for his spite. It would interest me very much to see how Z would react towards me in person...I am almost sure he would not have the self confidence or courage to say to me what he writes now.

Alora, please, those who read this sad string of messages, do not be discouraged by the petty theme and use your own opinion in evaluating mine and others submissions. Sorry for all the commotion.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha that is the most absurd thing i have ever heard. honestly, how can you live with yourself judging people so indepth over the computer? i guess you're right about one thing though, you do encounter people like me along your walk in life. my "kind" of people are your bosses, managers, and owners of the companies you work for. your "kind" on the other hand clean my floors, wash my dishes, and fix my computers. IF i ever had a confrontation with you in real life i have more than enough confidence to tell you that you're a douche bag and also to laugh at your pitiful existence. if you are honestly too much of a pansy ass son-of-a-bitch to suck it up from someone like me on the computer commenting on your shitty ass design, how would you react in the "real" world? run to mommy? cry into your livejournal? write a poem? paint a sunset? pansies like you make me sick. do everyone a favor and go to your local gun shop, buy a gun, put it to your face and pull the trigger. the world doesn't need more crying assholes.

People like me are the people who defend freedom for petty little women like you who use less than intellectual responses. Hateration is a colloqualism used by most urbanites, and may not be understood by dare i say posers. Now you can hide under the guise of someone with talent or you can crawl back in to the primordial sludge known has your mom. I will be more than happy to come to California and show you a piece of Hawaii or we can end this now. By the way I dont have any t-shrts out because they are getting approved. Maybe i might make a custom peace for you.

come to california and give me a piece of hawaii? man, you sound reeeaaallllyyyy tough. kinda scared. haha. as hard as you try to sound intelligent, it will never ever work my poor hawaiin friend. i love how you threaten my intelligence and then have the audacity to make these atrocious spelling and grammar errors. Yeah, i bet you will show me a "peace" of hawaii but probally not before i climb back into the "sludge known HAS your mom"? haha what the fuck man, if you're going to attempt to insult someone learn how to type. i dont know how they do it in hawaii, but here on the mainland we learn how to speak and type english proper.





p.s. fuck hawaii
