Cat In The Hat

Cat In The Hat

About the design

Submitted by staffell on November 11, 2005

Once again damn that 4 colour mark. Looks best on blue i think, but alas i could not submit like so.

You could work around the 4 color limit if you really want the illustration on blue (which does look best, but you also may be dealing with copyright issues...)

Anyway, take out the shadow on the hat & instead use the black to add depth. That'd give you 4 colors and blue shirt printability.

mew? *meow?

Is this a design out of support for the band Mew?

arethiel

nifty design. I kinda wish that the text was more ... regular than it is at the moment. not necessarily a computer font, but more regular

cats go mew! My cat does anyway.

gemmabear

I like mew.
but i've been terrified of the cat in the hat for years...so if I wore this, i'd be scared of myself.
it's a good illustration though.

HedgeMouse

Cute design. I'd like the word better with a tighter font, though.

miss.dulcinea

Cute idea. :) Great execution

I love how the word "mew" is written in what looks like your handwriting.

dangerouspenguin

Definitely 'mew'. Cat's say 'meow' and kittens say 'mew'. Love it if there's no copyright violation...

d3d

heh, sweet. i'd wear it.

empire of infinty

between the cat in tha that and the brand mew i dont think threadless could print this but nice design anyway

a) Ive never heard of a band called 'mew'
b) The hat is no more blatent than darth in DSOTG.
c) I wasn't aware that you could copyright a noise.

Verdana

One of my favorite books as a kid.

Wish we could get it on blue.

justlikeinamovie

Staffell I think the copyright issues they are referring to are using the Cat in the Hat, but like you said it's no more blatant than Darth was.

I wouldn't buy one even though I love it. Why? Because I would not enjoy the barrage of questions from people asking me what the hell "mew" meant. You may like it but it's illogical.

Theb

i think its quite obvious what "mew" means.... its even in the dictionary as the noise a cat makes. stupid.

Theb

ps - nice design, theb like this one! ^_^

stillusio

The text needs to be more Dr Seuss. ^_^

tze_bahs

have u ever heard of COPYRIGHTS? you COPYCAT!!!!! hacha cha cha cha!!!!!!

Peppler

Yeah I always thought a cat made the noise "Meow" and not Mew as in Mu the greek letter.

Pukagurl

yay MEW!!!

i am a music fan

hahahha pretty clever. i think the shirt should be blue though so it stands out because otherwise the hat runs into the red and the cats tail runs into the black or the white.

Xeen

5$ + I would buy it, I really love it !!!

Honestly, anybody who sees the hat from The Cat in the Hat with a cat tail sticking out of it and still can't figure out what the "Mew" is supposed to mean should go back to Kindergarten and start all over again.

A pokemon in a hat?

Mezbee

I love this. There are no words for how much I love this.

theRisforRad

I agree 100% with Mezbee. I wish this was still in the running.

partyrings

i used to watch that movie again and again until i lost it.


Shame.

The Philosopher

the white strip should be on top. Trust me, i know.

SnackPatrol

hey, i'm sorry if this is a completely newbie question (I'm sure it is) but what exactly do you mean by "4 color mark", i thought it was 8 colors??

sugarbabiee

actually 'the Philosopher' not to burst ur bubble or anything, the red stipe is on the top dummy
not to be rude or anything
so staffell is correct.
sorry

sugarbabiee

hey snack patrol

I think that you should've used text instead of writing mew, but other than that I loveeee it(:
