i love the drawing. not sure about the text though.
|
 |
i think i differnet placement of the text but i really like it
|
 |
I love the picture!!! but I prefer it without text
|
 |
i love the design, great colors. i'm just not digging the text.
|
 |
herky on Oct 12 '06 great illustration and colors, put the warning on the sleeve perhaps?
|
 |
timrb on Oct 12 '06 I have toyed with an alternate design. You can see it here, if you like.
It has been pointed out to me, however, that this may be a little too "cutesy." That was definately not what I was going for, but I can see why it was brought up. I leave it to you all to decide whether that's the case. Text on the sleeve is certainly a feasible idea. |
 |
cool!!
|
|
like pic, not text...
it seems like you;re making fun of the penguins... |
|
timrb on Oct 12 '06 Sure am.
|
 |
O_O 5$$$$
|
|
i like the picture, not the text.
|
|
isn't it baby SEALs that are clubbed?
|
|
timrb on Oct 12 '06 That's why I thought my friend's comment was funny: it was his dismissal of whatever was being clubbed as nondescript arctic-whatevers. That's almost the point of the design.

The illustration is adorable. I'd love it is the little floating iceburg with the penguins was in a lower right hand placement on the shirt.
And I agree with most that the text should go. Or if you are very attached to it at least make it less wordy and put it someplace under the iceburg so the attention is more on the cute illustration than the actual text. Just my 2cents. I'll give it a 4 and assume that if printed you'll do something about the ugly text. |
 |
no text
|
 |
oh my gosh, your alternate with the additional text is hilarious... I'd buy it with or without the text, but the text makes me giggle, just make it a weeeee bit bigger so others wont be starting at my little boobies. :)
|
 |
i agree with the text on the back, but either way..its wonderful
|
 |
martiandrivein on Oct 13 '06 ummm I dunno...I like it either way...
|
 |
$5. With Text.
|
 |
FRICKINAWESOME on Oct 13 '06 4 buckareenos with the text on the back of the shirt. Copy that fucking hilarious and sarcastic needs to be on the shirt in some form somehow somewhere.
|
|
If you were to lose the text, you would kinda lose the point of the shirt in the process. so I'm for the text. Also, $5.
|
 |
love the text.
|
 |
aww i've always wanted a little penguiny thing
|
|
meaningful...
|
 |
Like the picture, text too long
|
|
$5 with text either as is on back
|
|
lololol nice
|
 |
actually the text is remarkable, especialy the alternative version [front & back, maybe?] but the drawing just ruins it
|
|
i like both the text and the picture, but maybe you could keep the test on the front and move the text onto the back either on one of the shoulders or on the bottom right hand corner.
|
 |
I like the text and design, but I agree with others that you should maybe stick the text on the sleeve or on the back or somewhere and just have the penguin-thingys on the front, makes it a little more quirky and amusing
|
 |
The text below the illustration would feel more balanced.
|
 |
I like the drawing, but I do think the text could be taken out or placed in a different spot (bottom corner or side, even the back, cenetered) in order not to have two distracting visuals in the same spot.
|
|
I like the test. I think that is the whole point of the design. You could, however, make it more concise.
|
|
OMG HILARIOUS!!! 5 freaking hilarious dollars
|
 |
no textt $5
|
 |
If you somehow incorporated the text into the image (at least "the don't club the penguiny things") as a sign on the iceberg or something. i think the "title" text is nescessary. the body text is superflous(sp?) so you could do without it.
i love it though. 5$ |
 |
I like the text, but i would prefer it without hyphenation.
|
 |
Luke... on Oct 16 '06 great concept, you managed to get me to like a semi-penguined themed design...[cause, yes i have hated all other penguin design, but this one is great]
|
 |
DeadPoetic_Underoath on Oct 16 '06 5$
|
 |
The text is fantastic, you have to keep it on the shirt somewhere. I wouldn't buy the shirt without it ...
|
 |
nice
|
 |
Text is to long. Get rid of it.
|
 |
TEXT STAYS.
|
|
this is cute!
|
 |
Text MUST stay! Maybe on the back or on the sleeve, but you must keep it somewhere.
|
 |
jwalsh on Oct 17 '06 5$ love ittt!
|
 |
This is adorable! Keep the text, only because it calls them "the little penguiny things" (HAHAHA :D), if for no other reason. $5!
|
 |
Oh text. Definitely keep the text. Actually, I prefer the other version with even MORE text, b/c, darn it, your text is funny! 5$ with text! Also the alt. version is more comfortable to look at, b/c it looks like a sign w/ a pic, and less like text just floating in midair above Antarctica. My only concern is that the text may be too small to print clearly. Maybe should cut out a couple lines so that the font can be made larger?
|
|
The alternate is much better! Cute penguins, though.
|
 |
i like the alternate
|
 |
yoshi andrian on Oct 18 '06 really nice colors! 5!
|
|
awwwwww adorable!
|
 |
put the two different texts on each sleeve
|
|
Incurably cute. $5.
|
 |
I really love the alternate, I'd totally buy it!
|
|
timrb on Oct 18 '06 I'm now thinking that the alternate is probably different enough to re-sub, plus offering it here confuses the scores. I have a third re-working in the works, though, which may end up being the one that I'll submit. I'll blog them both when this is done scoring. Stay tuned.
|
 |
love the alternate but it could be less wordy... but still keep the text. and maybe placing the text somewhere not on the chest? but i love the art (especially the baby penguiny thing and the emo one all alone on the other side :])!

Oh man ... Threadless community hates text. I would have bought this. Or at least the alternate.

Robsoul on Nov 21 '07 The text makes this! Hilarious, but yeah, don't club the little penguiny things. |
|
Robsoul on Nov 21 '07 Prefer the original, not the alternate. |

About my design
A few weeks ago, while reaching for ways to describe how one is supposed to protect the environment, a friend of mine uttered the phrase "don't club the little penguiny things." I instantly knew it had to become a shirt.
