About my design

by coolhandcarter   
All about buttons and choices.

Hope it flicks your switch.

Woot, i like it. best color is the displayed one, i dont think it would look that great on the others.

I like how you' ve done this and how you've gone for the graphic possibilities of an all-text design. Cool to have a poetic thought come into my afternoon. Just watch some knob come along and make the 'lose the text' joke to ruin it. My only problem is that there's no way that switching any technology on or off is a precious choice, short of a life-support machine. Things aren't precious, people are.

I like cambert,

choices are precious to those who don't have many, and what we interact with is important as it's how we spend our time. Whether you choose to watch tv or geek out on the internet, or turn it all off and spend it with people precious to you.

Sounding a bit moralistic here.

So take care of yourselves and each other.

This is one of the few shirts made of solely text that I think should be printed.

5. would be 5 and buy, except...



"inbetween" should be "in between"



and "dropout" should be "drop out". well, it doesnt have to be, but "dropout" seems like a reference to high school dropouts, whereas drop out seems to be more of the way you wanted it to mean.



but hey what do i know?

I have a T-shirt similar to this. Basically just the power symbol in glow in the dark green on a black backround. I like the depth and dynamicism that the lyrics give the shirt though, especially the dual shades of green.

i hardly see designs that use text so well and it works so yay for you. and the idea is really good, concept is strong, its put together nicely.

Also, it bugged me *just a little* in the line about "On then off, and everything in between." What is in between on and off? If you turn it on just a little tiny bit... it's on. On and off, in terms of technology/electricity is generally pretty black-or-white. Not shades of grey. Also that the sentences are more or less 'complete' (or can pass as complete in a poetic way) up through "The decision is yours." Then it goes into really brutal sentence fragments that hurt my brain.



Oh, and "that lead to more precious choices" should be "that LEADS to more precious choices" because the original 'precious choice' is singular.



Other than the grammatical issues, I really like the designand concept.

To busy to read. I mean, how many people are going to stop and read the shirt? It looks pretty though.

Gosh, is it too late to post about this one? ... I WANT THIS TSHIRT ... 5 and buy buy BUYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY ... this is one of the neatest designs I have ever seen on Threadless





(Rahna was right about this, though "that lead to more precious choices" should be "that LEADS to more precious choices" because the original 'precious choice' is singular... that did kind of bug me)

e.e. cummings would wear this t-shirt, and that's reason enough alone to print it!
