"Et tu, Brute?"

Now this is what I'm talking about---glad to see some innovation and genuine creativity back in the flagging Threadless scene. Option #1 works best in my opinion, as the colours are more in keeping with a traditional deck of cards.

Nicely done, and I hope it is printed.

I already commented in the blogs, but I better comment here too since this is so nice, so very nice. Awesome work ron. My fav is the original deck of cards colors, color option 1. The design is great. I think I still like my title better though, "Haha suckers, you missed my heart I was holding it in my hand!"

Well illustrated, but I'm not sure I get it. Why does everyone like Jacks killing the King? Aren't they Suicide Jacks, too? They kill themselves when they kill the king? I just don't get it, but it is nice to look at.

doththee
doththee on Jan 27 '06
you got the latin wrong. if you are speaking to many people then it would be cavite, otherwise that is fine, but the ides of march sould be in the ablative plural, not the accusative plural, so it should be (speaking to one person) Cave Idibus Martiis, or (speaking to many people) Cavite Idibus Martiis.

and, yes, i do study latin. so no, i am not making this up.

otherwise, great design. ecept for the language problem i give you a 4

Awesome shirt. Perhaps my arithmetic or roman numerals are incorrect but I believe your shirt indicates Julius' birth date as VIII-XIII-C or 8/13/100, while I am fairly sure (and a cursory google search agrees) that his birth date is either 7/13 (or12)/100.

I'm pretty stoked to get this shirt as part of the 12 month club. I was worried for a couple of months there, but the last couple of shirts have been terrific! This shirt is cool! The Ides of March!
