So, if you haven't already checked this shit out--do it!

People make some dope stuff, and photoshopping for an hour or so is a sweet way to procrastinate doing your homework, nadadameann?

here's my entry. i'm just learning photoshop, so feedback is appreciated! (oh yeah, and you can vote for me! how sweet would that be to get your own t-shirt printed?!)

FRONT:

thanks for the love man!

oh and in terms of the theme stuff...instead of just having an image of some dude throwing down, or (stomping it, duh) i thought i might switch it up and put this badass bluehouse chick on it and tie in the theme through the text, ya know.
 
easy dude, no ones hating on her. she put it on here to see what we thought of it and were just telling her what she could do better. I'd like it if it werent for the squiggly's on the shoulder, that might just be me though.
 
I reallly like your design!the only improvement i could think of is take out the small black writing on the front, unless you need it or sometihng? but thats sweet how do you make t-shirt designs??
 
no offense but that design sucks. text at the stomach is a terrible idea. you want text on the chest of the shirt. and that text is way too small and too much
 
im not hating man Im just throwing in my $.02. I do like the design I just want to throw out some things i notice that could hinder it.
 
ill agree that text at the stomach looks like shit, but text at the chest would be ugly as hell too. you should either put the text going down the side or off to one of the shoulders or on the back on one of the shoulders. that's really the only way it work if you know anything about visual balance it will make sense to you. yes normally it would work just being on the chest but when something is on the chest it must be bigger than the rest of the stuff going on in the shirt since it is where the eye is being centred.
 
whoa geeze man! well, i guess i mean for the text to be more on the bottom right (still not the chest), i had to move it to the middle so i could get most of the design in on the detail template.

and the point of the text being really small is so when you look at it closely you can read it, and it says something special that makes you smile! i think it's nice when clothes have details that are very thoughtful but more difficult to spot, i suppose. it's not like logo stuff that's supposed to get all up in your face. you dig?

i'm totally not sure about the squiggly things also, i just wanted some more color so i tried that. i'm usually more a fan of simpler stuff, so here's the clean version:

oh and, i know NOTHING about visual balance. i said i'm just learning, kinda fucking around.

and the text is just some shit that gets me positive and stoked:

bluebirdparkdayspowderdays, you gotta

l o v e everything days.

SKIING IS

one of those things

that make it worth it-- all day, everyday.

everything in his world, her world, your world, my world,

might be completely upsidedown, ** "upsidedown" is actually upsidedown**

but for a just a little while, you can make the noise stop.

stoked, freed, liberated, totally in love --whatever it

means to you when there’s three feet of fresh and a phat line

STARING you in the FACE, call it anything you want and

STOMP IT HARD.

thanks for the constructive feedback though, guys.

 
its not nadadaimean, its yadadaimean, which you would know if you weren't blatantly trying to take our slang.
 
gosh oh my, there's hating all over this thread. and uhm, no i'm not from the bay area, but slang spreads, so no big deal. and i know that it's yadadaimean, as in you know what i mean, but lately i've definitely heard it morph into just nadadaimean as in know what i mean? dude, i'm defending myself way more than i thought i'd have to in this shit. crrrazy.
 
I liked where you were going with this design. And you got a considerable amount of votes for your first time submitting. Thanks for participating, I hope I see more of your stuff. It's original.
 
she aint takin it, shes making it her own. come on my thizzlamic brother let the white girl turf talk. yadidi'msayin yo?
