About my design

by Dan-O
Hoo-ray for first submissions! Came up with the idea when i went to get lunch... any guesses what I ate?

so are you saying a stinky armpit is greater than bread?

nice idea concept needs to be better, what if you made something, some fantasmical device that you could put on the other side of the > sign?

Haha. I usually hate these types of shirt, but I like it a lot. Possibly due to the inclusion of math symbols.

usually the person next to me is NOT better than sliced bread.

I take that as a complimetn Ginsoakedboy! Fear the nerd!

In retrospect I would say I likely submitted this design a little pre-maturely, however the trial-by-error that provides is helpful.



Thank you for the constructive criticism, I'm now thinking the > sign and the bread ought to be vertically oriented instead of horizontally. I really was looking for something very straightforward and simple with some wit.

this could be made out SO much better, so for such a great term as greater than sliced bread,,,, this makes me sad.

add a little more detail to the bread please... maybe increase the crease down the top? I don't know... it's pretty clear you mean bread but their is still some chance of mistaking it for cheese or butter or something. fun shirt and I dig the geekiness of it.

Knock, knock.



Who's there?



Your t-shirt idea sucks.

no, I agree. my right breast IS greater than sliced bread.



of course, I prefer to think of my breasts as a pair, instead of separate entities.



please feel free to change this to a vertical alignment... I still wouldn't wear it, but you know. think of the pair.

Good concept, however the idea needs a little work.



Some detail on the bread would be nice, and putting something on the left side would be better than nothing. I'm sure there's a symbol for everything or nothing or something similar. Perhaps make the design a little smaller too.



Also, please don't put the shirt in a vertical alignment, that takes away from the mathmatical equation.

I LOVE IT.

It's subtle yet hilarious.

perhaps a knife actually slicing the bread would make the joke a little clearer. I think its a good shirt idea though, good job.

you should put a small picture of the shirt before the > or maybe it should be <

add a knife, that would make it much better. I'm a bit slow, and so are a lot of people look at the pretty pictures on my chest. They'd need the knife to get it.

Smaller design, different drawing style, and vertical alignment would all help. Bread says, "I need more detail!"

NO.

NO.

All of you, stop it.

Do you see no beauty in simplicity and stupid humor?

Great idea- there can never be enough math humor.



Might be an idea to shrink the graphic and move it, making a blank spot beside the ">" sign... or a pocket if Threadless does pocket t's.



Good as is, though- 5.

hahahaNO.



I found that surprisingly unfunny.
Dan-O
Dan-O on Feb 27 '06
It's not supposed to be "funny"



It's supposed to be wry.



I tried texture over and over before submission, but it always seemed to add clutter rather than definition.

missing something.

for one, as many people point out, it begs the question, "WHAT is the greatest thing since sliced bread?"

So far all we really have is the literal illustration of a disembodied cliche'. Needs a bit of work.
