Ahhh – Borat grammar lessons required here… (anyone who has seen the movie will understand;) )

Should read Let’s just be friends. (not).

Hahah – maybe it should be like Let’s just be friends. hahaha

Why is the wording on the bottom of the tee?? like I wouldn’t look to the bottom of someone’s tee to read wrtiting.

Just learned somethin – I thought chiv was with spelled “shiv” – but this design is right – apparently spelled chiv! not my kinda tee. Bad Karma.

Sassy Aug 18th 2011, 07:36 talk_t

errr… bizarre. Don’t think this is something I could eva wear – this shirt is like too girly and I don’t dig the white block around the Sassy – plus the girl looks like a guy.

BWAHAHAHAA!!! Yeah i know a coupla gals dat would like to be the gal on the right. Funny tee!… and well illustrated!

nice package Aug 18th 2011, 07:36 talk_t

I don’t dig – the design is too low…. looks wierd where it is. And the Package looks too floaty – ya AmyAbrahams I think that it needs a shadow or some weight.

WHAHAHAHAHAA!!! Well done!!! This is a totally classic Zombie t-shirt

There are like loads of them out there- even an Obama Zombie one! This is amazing tho – it’s something everyone I know would wear to work. And the look on the Zombie’s face like they just got caught in the act. WHOOOOOOAAAA.

Awesome work Cmatos – you are amazingly talented. When can I get mine??? Ordertime.

Zombie Boss Aug 18th 2011, 07:36 talk_t

Hey has anyone seen any other totally classic Zombie tees?

T-shirt design Aug 18th 2011, 07:34 word_up

Yeah Eran, I know what you mean – I got a bit interested and started looking at the whole “t-shirt design rip-off” thing, cause there’s this series of stores called Jay Jays in South Africa.

Well – the thing with Jay Jays is that the stores are pretty funky, right and the tees there are cheap with cool stuff on them – all sorts of designs and they use foils and puffs as well sometimes – so theres a lot going on the t-shirt design.

I bought this cool robot t-shirt from Jay Jays and in a couple of washes the t-shirt faded and the foil stripped off! SUCKS! I mean – I know it was like R99, but in 3 washes to go from hero – I felt like the zero.

SO I felt pretty ripped off and started looking into t-shirt designs and Jay Jay and scope what I found :

Jay Jays rips off t-shirt designs

You know the site T-shirt Hell? Check it out

They make all those really low brow t-shirt designs centered around beer drinking, some pop culture, really in your face stuff. You can usually find them at wheelbarrows at markets and some shopping centers.

Turns out this guy found out that they were ripping t-shirts (sorry – allegedly ripping off -COME ON!!!!) from this fellas site.

Man I don’t care what planet you’re from – ripping off other people’s work is totally shameless and disgusting. GET A FREAKING ORIGINAL IDEA!!!

It also just blows me away that so many consumers just don’t seem to care that much either! – really appalling stuff!!! Where’s your feeling of social responsibility – what if it was you? I be you wouldn’t dig having your cool ideas, inventions and concepts stolen. Why is the law so lax on this sort of thing? Also – the average poor schmuck doesn’t have the cash to take this to court. It’s a messed up system.

Rain Angel Aug 18th 2011, 07:33 talk_t

hey Tay – this is your best. I just htink the words aren’t necessary and distract from the design.

mwah Aug 18th 2011, 07:33 talk_t

Yeah – totally

I think people keep forgetting : the question is NOT DO I LIKE THE DESIGN… it’s WOULD I BUY THIS TEE

Kitty Blade Aug 18th 2011, 07:33 talk_t

I have to say that the illustration does rock… but one has to consider – would I buy this shirt? I mean, am I missing something here? WHat is the meaning behind this shirt?
