Y HALO THAR!!!1one

Fixed it for you, also, make them reasonably fashionable, not black with white text like all those stupid "CANT SLEEP CLOWNS WILL EAT ME" shirts. If you do, I'll kill you.

i just got a T-Shirt from hot topic that says, well, i don't know what it says since it says what it says on the back. but on the front there is a guy with a base ball bat and on the back it says something like "when something happens, ballball bat"

I swear to God I'd like to see one that says 'How much did he eat?' on the front and 'How much did he tip?' on the back. and just a simple little gap-toothed grin, like the cheshire cat's smile.

Holy crap, it would be worth just for the one in a million chance you might see one other person that would get it.

I'm making that shirt.

Wow, those typesets suck!

If you properly designed them, they would have a better chance of making you money...

+1 on Ygrenes post.

I would buy that shirt!

Id buy two of them!!!

+1... get some better fonts, not just the pre-installed lame ones that are already on everyone's computer. no one is going to buy a shirt that they can easily make for themselves in 2 minutes.

to remember the most stupid guy ever joined ta, lets do a t-shirt...

FRONT: picture of an ape smoking a cigarette
BACK: picture of the real human being behind smokeape with a lower text saying evolution?

I will generously send him a free of these if you ever give me his real address...

ahaha

You don't understand the business at all!

People don't buy shirts based on fonts.

TYPESET/DESIGN. or lack thereof.

Thos shirts loook SOOOOOO plain, i could do the same thing in 10 mins.

They look drab and boring, completely and totally uninspiring.

And, nowadays you are especally wrong, in the last couple years ive heard more "shit that word on that shirt look awesome" than ever.

i'm in the business... people buy stuff based on what catches their eye and what they think looks good. your average person won't look at a shirt and say "hmmm that's a cool font, i think i'll buy that shirt"... they'll look at a shirt and say "damn that looks sweet!" because the design, as a whole, is appealing to them. they might not even understand from a design aspect *why* the shirt looks cool. in fact, there are many people out there who buy things with designs they don't understand just because "well it looks cool"

what i'm saying is... rather than just using plain boring fonts, why don't you try to do something creative? not only will the t-shirts display a message that is understood by forum geeks worldwide, it will appear to be an interesting and eye-catching design to those who don't understand things like "O RLY" and "Y HALO THAR".

and here are some examples for you...

simple, yet appealing.

omfg..where to buy???!

I'm in the business as well, not quite as professionally or as well trained as lucid, yet i do believe that my understanding of design is slightly more developed than your average bear, and lucid is completely right. you arent just buying a phrase, you are buying a small piece of art. when you make it so cheaply done and annoyingly dull by using the default windows fonts you take away from all that makes the shirt appealing and interesting to they eye.

If you want to see the full 1920 x 1200 one click here.

Those aren't actually shirts though, they are just designs for what they could say. The real ones will have pictures of foxes and such like.
