About my design

President Shot Dead

this news will turn the world up side down...

Design: Don't like the string down the entire middle of the shirt, just like it wrapping around the newspaper. Like the fact the newspaper is up-sided-own.



Purpose: Nice and political. Now for my 2 cents.... Remember people, we live in a police state, be carful what you say because you'll get thrown in jail or sent to some place like Cuba (?) by the feds if you agree with this message.



Lastly, we should send Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Condi, Cheney and GW (Dubya) to Iraq, bring our troops home and let those bastards fight their own god forsaken war for that oil.... oh wait no I'm sorry, it's a liberation, no, sorry, wait... are we still searching for WMDs?

Haha! Not that I don't... ummm... errr... what can I say here that won't get me thrown into jail? I admire your guts. I wouldn't wear it because, as political as I fancy myself, I'm sure pictures of me wearing it would viciously surface if I ever run for office. But still, I admire your guts. :)



And I'm gonna agree completely with Robsoul's last paragraph there.

I like this one. If it weren 't for you saying the meaning beind it in the fist comment, I still wouldn't have understanded it, though.

that would mean that cheney gains power, then there would be no world to turn upside down.

Idea: Insted of having a really long string halfway down the string Splice the words "NEWS WILL TURN THE WORLD UPSIDEDOWN" In red That inturn Would solve both your problems. People will understand it and the string will have a purpose.. but you know IM JUST saying.

I don't like the message but that's beside the point. Illustration is not bad. would like to see the text not so scribbled but more text blocky like in real life.

Yeah, it's very "cerebral" to wish death upon people. Whatever.

I love this thing, as well as the cut of your jib. JJALSTAR's got a pretty good idea going.

Why does everyone assume that the shirt is about killing the current president?



When I first saw it the first thing I thought of was JFK. Maybe I'm just old.





I say keep the string and lose the paper.

the purpose of art is social critique. don't listen to the stupid fucks who think design is about balance. its about content. you rule. and anyone who uses the word 'gay' in their critique is a fucking homo.

AH Aah ha.

you rule for making this design. keep 'em coming. don't forget that you have a voice amungst these dumb fucks.

love.k

Can you make different shirt colours? You have a lot, but they're all different shades of green... what about dark red?

cool concept but i dunno bout the string....for me it feels like its a bit out of place...but well done anyways!

I love it. I understand that design isn't always about balance and symmetry, but the line divides the image and leads the eye straight down... to... nothing. If it lead the eye TO something, I would understand. It would look rather empty, though, without the line, which I think keeps the paper weighted and draws attention to the fact that the headline is upside down... but I think it would sell either way what you do to it. But maybe play around with it to get a final strong end product?

wow ! i quess this shirt got peoples attention... i would suggest putting the paper on the bottom right hand side of the shirt with a pool of blood under it or maybe just a shadow to make it look tossed aside. i'm just not digging the string.

political and controversial (as all the above comments say), perfect. It looks best in black. string and all.

Love the shirt man, but I'm gonna jump on the cut the string down all the middle and just leave it around the paper bandwagon. You get a five in my book, even though that's not saying much(bush sucks).
