Braille

Apparently I'm too far disconnected from my childhood. Can somebody explain what the background part on the left is in reference to? I get the cat in the hat, red fish blue fish, and green eggs in ham (with a fox that looks like a german sheppard to me) but what is going on with the other side?

Re: The Original Blockbuster

Aww.. I thought "What's Cookin" was hilarious, but I understand wanting to avoid outrage.. ;)

Re: The Real Treasure

Love the addition of the letters! This one is fog bound.

Totally called this one being spens from the thumbnail, fav entry so far...even if it has only been a half hour ;)

Re: Unwritten

Reminds me of the Brothers Bloom movie.

Re: books are useful

I like it, but I think it'd be stronger with just the image and no text bubble (and both just hypnotized by the TV)... I feel like it's too much text and too small for wearable t-shirt purposes.

Hop on Pop! The #1 cause of sternum injuries for the past 50 years.

Love the concept and the layout of books moving across the shirt. But somehow the tree looks scary... Like it's creepy that the tree is producing books.

That looks like "Hop on Pop" to me. And "Horton Hear a Who" behind the cat.

Hop on pop is the other side.

Re: Imagination Takes Flight

Love this, but I'm sad about the name, since inevitably people will connect it with this older t-shirt, which is also book-based, but lets be frank, is designed much differently.

Re: The Real Treasure

different from your regular design which is refreshing and love whimsical feel of the design

Re: Read Me

He seems to be backward...unless it's a Japanese book, I suppose.

Re: Walking the plank

We don't need books, now, right? We can pirate them for free off the internet. So might as well throw those legitimate paper books into the deep abyss.

Re: The Real Treasure

Is it bad that the first thing I did was try to see if there was a hidden message with the letters?

Either way, GMV!

Re: Jealousy

I love your designs. They're so simple, yet make me laugh every time! Awesome!

Re: A Reading Rainbow

Take a look. It's in a book. A reading rainbow!

I'd prefer to keep it a secret between you and me. ;)

who knows if the moon's

(and if you and i should

why then

we'd go up higher with all the pretty people



than houses and steeples and clouds:

go sailing

away and away sailing into a keen

Lovely!

I'm sorry, I'm not saying I don't like your design, but I pay for every book I read on my Kindle (unless it happens to be offered for free). . . not sure how those aren't "legitimate."

Re: Funny Things are Everywhere

I very nearly made something similar, but this is just great! Good job, kiddo!

Re: Digital Companionship

Haha, love their expressions. GMV!

Re: raven n writin

Thanks for your support!

Re: Jealousy

I love this one. So great. And so true.

Re: the very hungry zombie

This makes me laugh, probably because the 4 yo in my life likes the Caterpillar but she would LOVE the zombie version.

Re: Gnomes and Molearty

Ha ha! Moles are evil. And that's why they get whacked.

OH! OK, now I really like it. Have someone in mind.

the creepiness of the tree is actually a selling point for me. got my vote!

Re: A "READING" RAINBOW

For those of you who might not get it, the rainbow is written in Braille. It says "reading." Therefor it's ... never mind...

I'm not saying that the majority of people don't pay for their books, but it's a general trend that people are not buying paper books and instead are getting them electronically. So the paper book is getting short shrift. I'm playing to the pirating, but the design isn't simply about pirating, but getting an electronic copy of Treasure Island by R.L.S. over a paper one, thereby allowing you to throw away the paper copy.

Also, it's kind of a dig against our increasingly disposable society. I prefer hard copies of everything- music, books, vinyl, paper photos, etc, in case something happens to my devices. I still got it.

Re: The Real Treasure

Very cool. I love the way this turned out.
