About my design

by TomatoVSC
I've been pondering a shirt like this for a bit, thought I'd give it a try. Any criticizm is welcome. :)

more detail, and i think you should chage the placement of the text very good idea

I think maybe a different font would be better. Though that may just be me since I hate hate hate hate Times New Roman. And then I agree with what Steak Jones said. More detail on the man, particularly around the eye area, and change the placement of the text. straight lines are boring. Definitely a good idea though, especially because my friends and I all complain about "the man" .

i think the text should just be "the 'Man'", without "the root of all corporate evil"

awesome. just an idea, but if you could get the copywrite, use the face of agent smith (hugo weaving's mug) for the matrix? just a thought.

Chance the font or text placement, or you could just buy "Corporate Zombie".

Who's that? John F Kennedy, Jr.?

I'd simplify it down to "The Man", too. Go with a different font, too.

i agree with Shahla, the illustration on the face could be a lot better, but then you do want to make the guy look ugly as hell, pun intended. i would probably add like cartoonish devil horns too, just to further get the point across.

I disagree on the devil horns comments. I think that would lose all subtlety.



I'm wondering if this might work better if "the man" himself looked a little more iconic, rather than photographic. I find myself looking at the shirt, thinking that it's supposed to be someone I recognize, and not recognizing them. I have a feeling that reaction might be somewhat universal among people who would see the shirt; they'd all be left wondering if they were missing something, even though they weren't.

First, thank you all for your suggestions.



I'm wondering what exactly you mean on iconic, though? I've already made a version where it's more detailed, which will most likely make him even more familiar looking. Not exactly sure what you mean. Or rather, how to go about doing that.

Love it. I agree with previous posts about losing the second line of text. However, I think Times New Roman is good. I hate hate hate hate Times also, but in this case, you're trying to make it look, well instructional or informational, like a generic label or what not. It will get to artsy if you give it a strange font.



Oh, and there is a little too much space between 'The' and 'Man'. Kern it in a bit.

I like it. would prefer it without the second line of copy. The guy has a Kryton sort of feel that made me giggle like a schoolgirl

Hi, Sean! Everyone's right...the "root of all corporate evil" is...lame. Try Arial for "the man" if you don't have any niftier fonts....



Did we have any French homework?

I love it how it is. Except I do agree with bringing 'the' and "man" closer together. love you!

Oi, that looks a bit weird. Accidentally left myself logged on at the gal's house, and she accidentally posted under my name.
