About my design

by karateburger
There's always been a lot of complaining about penguins and pandas on the Threadless forums, but have we ever taken the time to stop and think about where these poor creatures will go once their fifteen minutes are over?



i did a little research and found this place, an animal sanctuary devoted to iconic black and white animals, and brought back this shirt so that we may support our colorless friends.

Heh, threadless allstars!

Drop the type though, doesn't work with the image...

simfonik on Dec 13 '05
the type is terrible... totally takes away from the design, which is awesome. im going to rate it a 5$, but hope that the type doesn't show up if it gets printed, because i wont buy it.

karateburger on Dec 13 '05
wow, thanks everybody!



its looking like people are saying "no words" so far, which isnt THAT surpsrising if youre familiar with this community's track record of disliking words on shirts. So if youd like to check out the design without text, you can do so <a href="http://karateburger.blogspot.com">by clicking right here.</a></li>



i know that threadless has taken submissions and added as well as removed design elements based on noise from the forums, so if you like this shirt but not the font, let me know!



thanks you first nine for such great comments on the first day!

I'm not a text hater... I think it looks okay on this particular shirt because it doesn't clash nor is it too large.



I love animals and I love black and white, which means I love this shirt! Nice job.

it's that whole symmetry thing again. It's a really cool design, I just have this thing about large/complicated designs being symmetrical. It looks weird to me.

i wish there was no text or different text that fit the illustration better. in other news, this shirt rocks my face off.

I think my mom got that shirt for donating $10 to the world wildlife foundation.

I think that's kinda what you're going for, so I guess that aspect was successful.



The natural shirt color is also giving it that WW Foundation vibe.



You should definitely dump the text, unless you can figure a way to work it into the design. That particular font, though, is awful.



Nice zebra.

Great design, although I don't like the type..perhaps in slightly less elegant text and along the back as to no distract from the actual center point of the shirt?

other than that its beautiful and hilarious

ohmygodohmygodohmygod. how much do i love this? i think it's absolutley perfect. i xmas wish that this gets printed so i can buy it.

i like this alot, the writing makes it cuter (i think) and this needs to get printed

crumperfumkins on Dec 17 '05
The first time I saw this shirt I thought nothing of it until I saw the text, so I actually think it needs the text. The colour of the text, I think, is what kills it. Maybe if you make it black...



I'd still buyit w/o the text though, if democracy says that the text is a no-no. SO do whatever. 5$

Without the text, it becomes a collection of black and white animals. Kinda dull. The text adds needed humor. Don't know if I care for the font, though.



$5

kind of boring, not very interesting technically, doesn't say much. i'm not sure how i can be constructive here, but it's definately a 0. can't imagine wearing it. even if that meant bare nipples at church.

Loose the text.



Nice design, but it looks exactly like something straight out of a Zoo souvenier shop.

well it looks like the chances of this one getting printed are pretty slim, if not completely imaginary, but i would just like to thank everybody who dropped me a line and supported this design. YOU GUYS ARE RAD.
