About my design

by jpiatt   
FUN FACT OF THE DAY:



"HOLD YOUR HORSES":

Meaning: "Take it easy; keep calm; don't do anything rash. It is what one had to do with horses when they began to get nervous or excited; by 1844 it had been extended to people, as in the 'New Orleans Picayune': 'Oh, hold your horses, Squire, There's no use getting' riled, no how.'" From "The Dictionary of Cliches" by James Rogers (Ballantine Books, New York, 1985).



"Hold your horses" is among a surprising number of horsy phrases surviving long past the time when most people traveled by horse or horse-drawn vehicle.

I'm not particularly fond of horses or anything to do with them but I love the design. Ill take 1 point away for the fact that I dont like horses.

Making literal representations of common phrases does not make a good t-shirt. Be original.

Willie, I named it after I was done with it. But I'll try to please you by being original next time.

I'll also commend you on your original profile that is totally blank. Your original designs that aren't there are pretty nice too. The original grey box with a lighter grey x in it is a great original user picture as well.
