About my design

by bananaphone   
It is impossible to look good/have any dignity whilst playing that game.

Pssshh...DDR is fun.

Nice colors though!

and its not even dancing, its stomping on colored tiles for points.







i love the "you got served" episode of southpark and the kid they get who plays this all day. in the comp all he does is stand in place and move his feet



bananaphone
   bananaphone on Apr 18 '06
haha yeah that was an amusing episode. The goth dancer was amusing too.

_kapow on Apr 18 '06
i think that the text under everyday should be bigger. from far away it just looks like it says everyday, implying that yu do that everyday? so, if it was bigger, it might get the point across better. good concept.
bananaphone
   bananaphone on Apr 18 '06
its supposed to have a bit of subtlety. Besides, on screen is alot smaller than the actual print... It's not like this is actual size. We aren't making tshirts for super midgets here.

i actually like a banana phone design.

i looked on your profile & i also liked your headless lego chap one.

ahhh. :S



it's a 4.

I've actually seen some look cool on one of these, but then the fact that they must have practiced to look cool on a dance machine makes them a loser.



It pretty much cancels itself out...
StPip
StPip on Apr 18 '06
I'd buy this is the text was bigger.

But yeah, some kid did this for his talent during a Mr.Absegami Contest (Sort of like our schools Ms.America or whatever), but yeah...

This stupid craze must stop!

i had such high hopes for you bananaphones.....
bananaphone
   bananaphone on Apr 18 '06
and what hopes would they be?



I'm not here to sell out, I'll either be printed concepts as is or not at all, and I am happy enough with either. I am not going to kiss asses with my designs just to "appeal to the masses".

OMgosh, I really don't like this shirt.

Call me a big fat looooser nerd dork freak WHATEVER, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE DDR!!!! I fricken play that game for my life.

I'm not saying everyone should love it or anything, but there's nothing wrong with being good at this game, and it DOESN'T make you look stupid unless you don't know what you're doing. This game is super good for the videa game fat freak to actualy get up and do something with his/her life. It's a good workout, and considering the many fat people in america, it should not be insulted.

SHAME on you people.
faaaaaace
faaaaaace on Apr 18 '06
thin people don't need to play that game.

when you're thin, stop playing.

it should be like taking a $1000 bet to eat a dozen raw eggs. once you eat a dozen, stop.

kjaydeck3 on Apr 18 '06
Dude I would have to wear this when I attempt DDR cause I am horrible at it. Heh.
Sapphi
Sapphi on Apr 18 '06
I am a total DDR addict.

However, I'd still buy this shirt, because I agree, and will be the first to admit, that I look like a complete idiot jumping around on a Heavy song. It's the truth.



possibly get rid of that triple tap step and give us a left-right combo in blue instead. otherwise you're going to have people who want the colors alternated because as it stands, it's not correct, and if you added in a third color, it'd mess up your color scheme. x)



But I do like this. I was going to do a DDR shirt, but I figured there would be copyright issues.
hurricane_xx
hurricane_xx on Apr 18 '06
um talk about lame...i was about to play ddr for the first time wiht my cousin and before the game was even on, i slipped on the mat and broke my arm. yeah...



ANYWAY i like it cuz i basically looked like an idiot after the arm breaking when i played it for realz.
SincereTease
SincereTease on Apr 18 '06

JDu8s on Apr 18 '06
Sweet design but I'm not sure if I'd wear it. What about if some hardcore asian DDR gang saw me wearing this? I'd get beaten up. And I couldn't even run from them because their legs would be uber strong from their video game excercise/training. Gave it a 4 though

you should have posted this at tshirthell.com it looks like something they might print

Sodacap_bum
Sodacap_bum on Apr 18 '06
hahahahahaha



i think maybe you should delete the text so you'd have a wider variety of consumers instead of just people who suck at DDR....like me. hahaha.



anyway. yeah. so i'd buy it, i'm just concerned for the other people who avtually ARE good at DDR.
chiibeth
chiibeth on Apr 18 '06
...doesn't anyone like Pump it Up.

well i love DDR and i would wear it just because buying means i know what it is and yes i look like an idiot...isn't that half the battle?
the mothership
the mothership on Apr 18 '06
being a huge fan of DDR i would have to say no, i would not buy this and would give a dirty look to whoever wore this shirt. despite what your design says, i think people who play DDR look cool while playing.

bk1 on Apr 18 '06
Actually mothership, people playing ddr look like asses. Maybe your eyes are blinded by the incessant arrows to perceive any semblance of coolness.

I love this shirt. My wife is a big DDR fan and it'd be great to wear this around the house. yet another good bananaphone
chuckoochuckoo
chuckoochuckoo on Apr 18 '06
Dude, faa...ce, I don't know what the heck you are trying to say, but skinny people can play the game if thye want to. It doesn't just mae you thin, it actually builds muscle in your legs. It's fun and you get muscle, what else should you ask for? Why would you go saying, "You're already skinny, soo you can't play that game anymore because you don't have any fat to burn."

I can play the fricken game if I wanna.
bananaphone
   bananaphone on Apr 18 '06
" For on thing, the arrow colors don't alternate when they should, and also, the arrows aligned on the shirt look nothing like an actual step chart from DDR, or In the Groove for that matter."



I modelled the arrows on a screenshot of the actual game, so they are actually fairly accurate. For someone that actually plays such a stupid game I am surprised you'd come up with such a comment.



As for the alternating colours, well, maybe if threadless wants to print 5 colours =P

damn skippy, except for the hardcore crazy ones who live in there parents basement and can play heaxy with there eyes closed and being shot at. that's when it's cool
bananaphone
   bananaphone on Apr 18 '06
no it really doesn't build that much muscle in your legs, its CARDIO excercise, it burns fat and tones but it isn't exactly a weights session.

its good that some DDR players can have a laugh at themselves. Well done.
JordanMacKay
JordanMacKay on Apr 19 '06
I have no problem with people playing DDR in the comfort of thier own homes. nut when mobs of these people crowd the arcade and cheer each other on, like it's some sort of break dancing circle, thats when I get pissed. espacially that one time when there was a guy with a video camera taping the players.

3. because I don't do Hate shirts

Big Ed
Big Ed on Apr 19 '06
I think it's sad that some people refuse to consider that maybe they do look a little silly when they play DDR and they're giving bananaphone a low score based on that fact instead of whether it's a well executed design or not.



Also I admire those of you who said "I play DDR and I admit I look like a tard when I'm playing." The world desperately needs more people who are willing to laugh at themselves. Kudos to all of you.

Heh. I'm a DDR fanatic, and I don't think I look like a moron when playing this game.



But on the contrary, I love this shirt to death, because I love how some people look like total dumbasses while playing this.



Excellent Job, bananaphone! ^_^

Bananaphone, you honestly are one of the main reasons I still enjoy rating subs. When a Bananaphone design comes up, I always enjoy them. Always.



Once again, $5

I won't rest till I own a Bananaphone design.
Smegmoon
Smegmoon on Apr 20 '06
1. People who play DDR know they look ridiculous. That's part of the fun of playing! Therefore everyone should love this shirt.



2. Everyday is an adjective. Separate it into "Every day."

feinerthanall
feinerthanall on Apr 22 '06
Eh. I'm not liking this so much. DDR is actually a really fun game, and you don't really have to loook good doing it , or have any dignity. I think it would be better without the text.



It's just fun.



PS- I showed it to my bf (who plays it like a madman) and he was like I WANT IT. I'm like.. uh. You're burning yourself, dude.



bananaphone
   bananaphone on Apr 22 '06
You don't have to be burnt by it though. Sometimes looking like an idiot is fun, you need to put your own context to it.

haha ok i love this shirt, but what i love even more is how many people left comments about the shirt being offensive. chill, people. its just a joke. plus, i've played DDR, its cool and all, but, face it, we DO look like idiots.



however, you could change it to "everyday, thousand of white people think they can dance." at least that might offend a different demographic :)

First off, I'm all for creative license but, yeah copyrights and all. Secondly the joke doesn't fly if it doesn't make sense. I know it's simple to hate soemthing you fail to understand. It's a game. Peopledo look stupid while doing it, that's what makes it fun. And thirdly if you'd done said research using a screencap of the game, you'd realize that the arrow colors are always cyan and magenta, perhaps using green was a good move for you maybe it'll get printed because of that.

I LOOOOVVVEEEE DDR!!!!!! I really don't care how people think I look while doing it, and I really don't care if people like it. The more people that hate it..means shorter lines at the arcades. I've also found that..the people who laugh and hate it..are the ones who made fools of themselves by trying it once. ^_^ But thats just my opinion...
