Make it go in reverse order from this one. It looks awkward, or backwards this way. Nice though

AWorldApart on Nov 22 '06

Hell reject you, huh wulf? It's awesome but, shouldn't there be another step between the death and, well, the, uh... The middle one?

AWorldApart on Nov 22 '06

But it's a 3. And wulf, it was just one of my skanky jokes?

AWorldApart on Nov 22 '06

? = .

oh god!

j.ayde on Nov 22 '06

thanks for the feed back. i hope people like it.

j.ayde on Nov 22 '06

and if there was another step it'd probly look weird with more than 3 things.

Croffty on Nov 23 '06

I've seen this before in some sick flash animation... 'cept the balloons were killing babies...

j.ayde on Nov 23 '06

haha. funny thing that. i saw that cartoon and it inspired me to make this. if anyone wants to watch it type Billy's Balloon into google video.

Eleanor Rigby on Nov 23 '06

AMAZING.,

this is super i want

j.ayde on Nov 23 '06

thanks heaps ^_^

I had a dream that I killed my coworker by hanging her with a balloon like this. I apologized the next time I saw her. I think removing the middle frame would be more effective.

j.ayde on Nov 24 '06

thanks for your critism halfway ^_^

DeadPoetic_Underoath on Nov 24 '06

funny one!

carmensitara on Nov 24 '06

cute and sad. I love the three steps. :)

claude.mercure on Nov 24 '06

This needs the caption to work.

j.ayde on Nov 24 '06

thanks for the crit. if anyone thinks the text sould be in the shirt please just leave a comment saying so. and also if you think including the black circle and place it perhaps on an ash of dif coloured shirt. i wanna know if its worth the re-sub.

cruciatus on Nov 24 '06

beautiful, i think oppositely though, i think it works perfectly without the caption.....

whatever, just my opinion.

$5 and i'd buy it

j.ayde on Nov 25 '06

thanks. i appreciate compliments.

rottentomato on Nov 25 '06

i LOVE billy's balloon. i need this shirt..

j.ayde on Nov 25 '06

haha. yeah. good times.

_JULIA_ on Nov 26 '06

i like the design even though it would scare people if i wore it

BippityBoppity on Nov 26 '06

I like the design in theory, but there's no way I could ever wear this. It'd be incredibly horrible of me to do so.

GldKttn18 on Nov 26 '06

My dughter did this to her brother once. He survived thank God. U just can't turn your back on kids for a sec.
I think it hits a little too close to home for me, if ya know what I mean.

j.ayde on Nov 26 '06

hmm. yeah. i get what your saying. thanks for the feeedback.

mrdeadhead on Nov 27 '06

reminds me of Billy's Balloon, which i like. sweet.

ericaallyson on Nov 27 '06

I think it's a funny design, but it might be a little big for the shirt..

connecthedot on Nov 27 '06

great job! i will buy this shirt. !!

j.ayde on Nov 27 '06

thanks all. to ericaaallyson i was thinking the same thing. but if it did get printed i could change that quite easily.

schumacherenator on Nov 27 '06

seen don hertzfeldt's short, "Billy's Balloon"? you'll appreciate it.

CottonBall25 on Nov 27 '06

lol nice maybe just make it a bit smaller and i think itd be perfect :D

j.ayde on Nov 27 '06

to schumacher. yeah if you read the above comments it notes that i was "inpsired" by that movie.

im_falling_up on Nov 28 '06

this is awesome, balloons and teddy bears , great combo

xdesensitizedx on Nov 28 '06

i really like this and i think the order is just right. you don't want the last bear to be the first one. it gives it away

Stupiditys Ugly Head on Nov 28 '06

The middle frame is odd, but I love the first and last, and its great without text. Text would be like explaining the punchline to a joke when everybody already understands it.

A dub on Nov 28 '06

so emo, so great.

j.ayde on Nov 29 '06

thakns for the feedbacl. cept for the emo comment. but hey you still like it so im not complaining.

Noac on Nov 29 '06

I like it but why is it reversed? Shouldn't the top left and bottom right bear shift places? Or is he dropping from a plane rather than lifting off?

j.ayde on Nov 29 '06

im not totally sure. i just had the idea in my mind that itwas slowly descending. seriously though. if it got printed. (which i doubt) i could easily swap that around. its no biggie.
