I imagine only Threadless users would get this.

finletter on Feb 22 '07

haha
threadless geek shirt to the max.... something which i totally profess to being.
awesome.

rudra on Feb 22 '07

best text ever

althoug possibly lost on non-threadlessers

J-Ray on Feb 22 '07

the shaded 3-d part behind the words is too dark for the rest of the drawing but otherwise i really like it, like all of your stuff!

LeCirage on Feb 22 '07

Well... only threadless users buy shirts from threadless... so it works! I don't mind funny looks from strangers.

J-Ray on Feb 22 '07

and ironically, this is your best type treatment yet!

rudra on Feb 22 '07

oh - and i agree with j-ray:

the black in the text shading is too harsh - a grey shade would work

theurbanraptor on Feb 22 '07

yay!!!!

lunchboxbrain on Feb 22 '07

kick ass on the pac. blue tee. $5

fatheed on Feb 22 '07

Dude. This is genius. The yeticorn will not die. This might even be better than the last one. Yeticorns and ironic inside-jokes aside, this is a really well executed design! 5$

PS: lose the text.

Lucretia Mott on Feb 22 '07

I really adore this shirt!

grypesagon on Feb 22 '07

juliagoolia on Feb 22 '07

Polymath on Feb 22 '07

sympatheticlove on Feb 22 '07

even if you dont lose the text it would still look okay

helo on Feb 22 '07

r.o.b.o.t.i.c.octopus on Feb 22 '07

damnright! another yeticorn, well actually there is only ONE. he beheaded the rest.

carolann12582 on Feb 22 '07

YES! me likey

dorkman on Feb 22 '07

heck, I'm not even a threadless geek, and I love this... only been a member for a while, but already used to the constant use of the phrase "lose the text". for the record, I usually agree

Velvet Jones on Feb 22 '07

HA AHAHA AHAHAHAHA!!! I would proudly wear this shirt!!
$5

pickledbib on Feb 22 '07

I don't like type tees.... lose the text.... $5

Masterpeace on Feb 22 '07

toomanytentacles on Feb 22 '07

anti-yeticorn people make me sad

chelly on Feb 22 '07

I LOVE IT. i work at a publishing company and it makes sense there too. TEXT IS NOT ONLY IN THE LAND OF THREADLESS. *shock*

BeeBubble on Feb 22 '07

i love D : $5

Lemursauce on Feb 22 '07

Max F on Feb 23 '07

yeah, awesome !

The Ending on Feb 23 '07

gad damn it I was just about to do a lose the text desing! Love this! 5$

fatheed on Feb 23 '07

I agree - its not just a Threadless joke. I think this applies to the wider world of graphic design. I'd wear this around my graphic design buddies, and they'd be, like, "that is so true". And we'd all high five each other. So, basically, threadless would be bonkers not to print this bad boy.

CopyPasteRepeat on Feb 23 '07

I guess that makes me a Mikey. This is quality, you don't need to change a thing.

I am also a fan of Type Tees and it bugs me when people always say: "Lose The Text"

5 and a $

ecky_ducky on Feb 23 '07

This is so awesome, I might expire.

corey8 on Feb 23 '07

this would be better if there were more text.

Petanca on Feb 23 '07

loose the drawing!
Cool design!! (I love texts on designs, yes I do!)

mezo on Feb 23 '07

I KNOW YOU. Also, I like this. The colors on the red make my skin crawl in the way that makes you feel kind of dirty and happy. I adore how the text is rendered but not sure if I like what the text says (in the cloud). It's a little too "inside joke". Regardless....the rest of the design curls my toes so much I can't give this anything less than a 5$. So you win.

R G on Feb 23 '07

coooool

canceromega on Feb 23 '07

Viva la yeticorn!

LesterF on Feb 23 '07

r.o.b.o.t.i.c.octopus on Feb 23 '07

yes mezo you do... you do.

alphabetapi on Feb 23 '07

haha rad! fo-swayze! $5

ajsolid84 on Feb 23 '07

WTF?!?!? This is the AWESOMENESS I've been waiting for. This made my bones giggle. I would give it $5, but since you posted that weird link to those sneakers, I think a zero will do just fine.
I'm really giving it a $5. Don't worry.

r.o.b.o.t.i.c.octopus on Feb 23 '07

haha! well really if i could take the sneaker faux pas back i totally would!

glad you all like it!

joshhupp on Feb 23 '07

I love that this would get a ton of "huh?" If this isn't printed, Threadless should hold a contest. $5

steph-_- on Feb 23 '07

print or die

jwalsh on Feb 23 '07

hahahaha its awesome... i hope they print this $5

gloom on Feb 24 '07

Haha, really good pun. :)

r.o.b.o.t.i.c.octopus on Feb 24 '07

it's not a play on words though...no pun involved...it's not even a false pun.

but from your sideways smiley i suppose you like it regardless. so THANKS YO!

quaycur on Feb 24 '07

cool monster, but there's a reason that people always say to lose the text

Monkey III on Feb 24 '07
