KENPARS0NS wrote:The placement choice is great!

I agree - but I'm worried about one thing.. I bought the maple leaf shirt from canada week because I liked the placement also, but in the XL size it wasn't that far over on the actual printed shirt it was more kind of off centered...

Was that just a mess up on printing or is it usually like that?

Re: 1973

great description, dk! sweet pic, too. my husband would love this! (in addition to me) 8)

I don't feel so old now, only 2 years before you.

You made my daughter laugh hysterically at the description. thanks.

Re: Tribute to PONG!

I like it. I remember it. I think we still have it.

However, i think the image would work better larger... taking up more of the image space on the shirt

Re: 1981

oh dear.. hahahaha!

Re: 1988

Edgar - You are wonderful! I long for an explaination but even without one this is great...

Re: 1988

Awesome entry Edgar!!!! WTG, GMV, and LOL.

Re: 1959- Che and Fidel took over cuba

Both of the originals for these images are public domain, unlike the usual image of Che Guevara that we see. I knew Che was a revolutionary, but had no idea that he was a major reason that Castro 's rebels won their revolution. Afterward, he was actually a big part of the government that they started with, only to leave within a few years, a few months before he was killed.

Re: 1984

Re: 1986: The Legend Was Born

This shirt can't be rejected fast enough.

Rejected on what grounds? Just the fact that you don't like it?

Re: 1986: The Legend Was Born

I perk up with anything Zelda, but I can't see this getting past rejectors. It's basically a bootleg Zelda shirt. Just because the individual items are not copyrighted, doesn't mean combining them all doesn't make a Legend of Zelda product. I like the artwork though.

Tim Berners-Lee proposed the World Wide Web in March of 1989. Were it not for this brilliant idea, allowing the excange of information between computers, I might be spending my time doing my homework rather than designing shirts.

Re: 1986: The Legend Was Born

Do want!!

*giggles* looks like something out of the Dire Straits "Money For Nothing" Video

I agree, you were robbed last week.

GMV.

Re: 1983 - Take a Look, It's In A Book

nice nice nice!

i love jordy in that. before his eyes went bad.

BTW... ROY G BIV... im sure you know... I guess you have no love for orange blue and indigo.

i can understand yellow red, black and white...

but magenta? MAGENTA?

i kid. beautiful unicorn. needs some guts and blood on its horn. unicorns kill. its a myth that they are really cool and friendly.

balh blah blah

Survivor of 3 Mile Island meltdown - 1979.

Re: 1988

good god, I think i remember reading this. Edgar you are certifiable....



.... certifiable genius that is. 88 was not a good year for me, but I'll vote for this anyway 'cause its awesome.

Re: 1983 Fraggle Rock!

1983! the year fraggle rock became a tv show on HBO.
i have a feeling this might get rejected, but I will try anyway. I hope you all like!

Re: 1968

My friend has a shirt exactly like this. He bought it at like, Urban Outfitters or something. This is not an original idea.

Ja, at worst I guess it could be a bootleg shirt. Woot has printed bootleg starbucks and d*sney logo shirts though. Just wore thatrobert's consumerism shirt yesterday actually. Got lots of compliments. Way to go thatrobert!

My husband has about 20 of those atari cartridges.. and everything still works.

Love it, but that image is copyrighted.

But those shirts were parodies. There's no original content in your design. It's basically just capitalizing on Nintendo's work?

Re: 1986: The Legend Was Born

Fablefire is a girl?! And she likes Zelda?! And we didn't really land on the moon?! This is a world I didn't know existed and I don't know if I can cope.

Re: 1985

I'd deal with the fact that an orange shirt would clash with my red hair for this shirt. ^^

Re: Warhol just turned in his grave -1987

Can we get a closer view of the print on the shirt? I like this.
