All of my grandparents are dead, so it makes me sad. Incredibly offensive.

At first, I found it amusing. At a second glance I considered "Maybe it's supposed to be melencholy too. Interesting.

Took me a second to get it, and then I loved it. I'm pretty sure that's the reaction a t-shirt is supposed to elicit.

I think it's fantastic! That's where my grandma is and it makes me happy to see it. Funny and happy and shocking but back to funny again. Love it!

this isn't incredibly offensive... anyone offended needs to go help get oil out of the oceans, that's offensive. but this just seems like it's clip art and some text?

PortugePunk on Feb 23 '06
Really dig it, Jeremy, but the type is a bit distracting to me. I might shrink it just a bit. Great idea, though. I want one!
full_exposure
full_exposure on Feb 23 '06
Yeah I kinda agree too about the font size...

That's great! I love humor like that! Definitely but, without a doubt, that is beautiful. Aweomse *awesome* design.

Shrink the typefont. Or maybe actually write out 'fig. 1: Grandma', in that 'The Way Things Work' style, underneath.



Very Edward Gorey. I like it.
Matuso
Matuso on Feb 23 '06
Yeah...



'fig. 1: Grandma'

Matuso- brilliant
Firinel
Firinel on Feb 24 '06
Agreed with Matsu. the white fill is a bit distracting, too, though I'm not sure if you took it out, if the fineness of the image would be lost a little.
AlliT
AlliT on Feb 24 '06
I personally think you should leave the white fill in, makes the urn more of the focus. I'd also maybe like it more at the bottom of the shirt as opposed to the top? Beautiful drawing, but i'm afraid that there are too many colors to print it. :(
PortugePunk
PortugePunk on Feb 24 '06
Might get away with it if it's a 2-color in photoshop.

"loose the grandma and its good "



wtf? you want him to open the urn and let grandma out?



jesus i make myself laugh.



If you "lose" grandma then the shirt is POINTLESS. get a clue for crying out loud!!!
carrifaery
carrifaery on Feb 24 '06
i love the urn, but feel the font should be in a similar flowery style, something Grandma would like, and then with a capital G because we should respect Grandma.



Also, bottom placement, or centered, not up on the shoulder.
SeraphNoctum
SeraphNoctum on Feb 24 '06
the text is too b ig. would be nice in some sort of old fashioned lettering...the kinda think that says "fig. 2.1" in old science manuals or something.





Other than that....can they print that? the fine detail might be too much for the printers.
flokati_sunshine3596
flokati_sunshine3596 on Feb 24 '06
a 'sort of' amusing idea, but it could be pretty offensive to people whose grandparents really are sitting in urns. my grandpa included
halfbrowneyedgirl
halfbrowneyedgirl on Feb 24 '06
At first I laughed because I didn't understand "grandma" but I looked again and got it...

I don't know if I like it or not, but I'm giving a high score because it made me stop and look again.

C_ROK06 on Feb 25 '06
I can't decide whether I'm deeply offended or amused... I know a bunch of people who would absolutely love this! ^_^ I'm not sure about the placement though... I'm thinking it should be in the center.

serafini
serafini on Feb 27 '06
beautiful design, but it makes me a little sad...

maybe it should say something less personal like "freedom" or "abe lincoln" or "mister rogers"...no that last one still makes me sad.



gorgeous urn, though. 4.
flipthedisc
flipthedisc on Feb 27 '06
Not a bad idea at all. I do agree with Matuso though, the "fig. 1 Grandma" would make it even better. Bottom corner of the shirt seems to work best.



I'd consider buying it.

i like it. and it's printable, just some of the detail will be lost. I used to work for a silkscreening company. It's so pretty! If its you who drew that you get a gold star on your report card. $5

That font is horrible! It looks so cheap and unrealistic, and really clashes in color and style with the image above it.
Aristarchus
Aristarchus on Mar 01 '06
...why are people so thin-skinned? How is this offensive? It's not like it's a picture of someone f*ckin' grandma's corpse, for Chr*st's sake!



This is funny shit. I love it. I want it. Fiver.



And this is someone who's got a couple of urns in the house!

Very, very cool. Both in a funny way and a macabre way. Only thing I might change is the font - make it match the urn..like more of a formal, epitaph-esk font maybe.. you get what I'm sayin'. But yeah. NICE.
anitabark
anitabark on Mar 02 '06
this is awful, it's just crappy stock art with a badly matched font.
