awesome!

i recently complained on facebook that the city of duluth was featured on the awesomer before any of my work was.

then, yesterday, my design, "plaidinum." went up for sale on teextile.


and i finally got my wish, a small 300x250 pixel stake of real estate on the awesomer.


this has been a dream since i first found the awesomer following a link from a dick firestorm shirt. now if only i were as awesome as mr. firestorm...

come to the plaid side.

if you missed your chance at getting my "plaidinum." design on tee fury last year, here's a second chance!


click here to buy now!

this design sold well enough to get into tee fury's top 10 selling designs last year, so i am hopeful that having this design available for a full week at teextile (maybe more?) will at least match the level of awesome it did there!

2 designs for sale this week!

both teextile and ript apparel are featuring one of my designs this week.



this design will be on sale all week at teextile.




this design will be on sale today only at ript apparel.

the folks at teextile contacted me last sunday night asking if they could run my shirt last week, but i didn't read my email that weekend and i missed out 0.o' but luckily i was still on their roster of printables.

the ript apparel print i've been waiting on for a while now, back when the good folks at ript apparel sold my gorgeous george design, they had also taken in the teddy terror design an wanted to wait 2 months between prints. so i've been impatiently waiting ever since.

to add to my impatience, i'm posting this and updating my website 2 hours before the shirts go on sale. so here's hoping i'm not incorrect on the dates :P

easy, peewee, snorks.

i had contemplated (and blogged) about entering the last 2 designs i made at threadless.

but the more i thought about it, i didn't think they were the best fit for threadless' audience.

so instead, i'm gambling that they're right for the teextile audience.

on a horse with no name.

i put together a new design mixing classic american art (end of the trail) and some more iconic pop culture.



it is up for vote right now at teextile.

more to love.

i've decided to look into a few new shirt competitions and sites i had been too shy or busy to get into.

i visited teextile.com when they first opened, and boy, did they grow into a pretty cool site while i was away. i feel like a father who "left for smokes" and now, a year later, my kid is all grown up and famous, and i'm looking to get reacquainted to ask for a loan. (that will be the last horrible metaphor you see in this blog)

i now have a number of designs (including the tee i just sold at teefury) up for vote here.

i also visited shirtfight.com and liked the set-up. every thursday they introduce a theme, designs are voted on for a week and the winner gets a cash prize and a print of their tee. this week's theme is "tell a joke" so i submitted 'game over.' and 'lambchop.'.

i was then referred to shirt.woot by one of their commissioned artists (robbie lee), and although they have a weekly set-up like shirtfight.com has, i was informed i should just send them some examples. so cross your fingers with me and you might see some of my cataloged designs on shirt.woot soon!
