29. April 2009

Comments

Somehow a whole half a year has zipped by since the last User Showcase Highlight Post, and that is a travesty. In the meantime you’ve more than doubled the number of images (now weighing in at 2,481) and gained 321 more members. Here’s a selection of the pieces that caught my eye after [...]

Barack Obama Portrait Deck on UrbanOutfitters.com

In August, the Obama campaign was running a contest for the next Obama T-shirt. I thought to myself “Self, you don’t like John McCain, and you certainly don’t like Sarah Palin. You DO like drawing, fresh ideas, and what Barack Obama will bring to this mess of a country that we’re living in.” [...]

Cleveland’s Marathon, Go Media’s Design, Bill’s experience

4. December 2008

Comments

Cleveland’s Marathon This past spring I participated in the Cleveland Marathon. It was a lifelong goal of mine; to run a marathon. Being the designer that I am I couldn’t help but notice the design on the give-away t-shirts (which were actually very nice synthetic-fiber jogging shirts.) In my opinion the design could use a little [...]

There’s a new game coming out this month called Baja: Edge of Control. They’re calling it the Gran Turismo of off-road racing. We were asked to be a sponsor probably over a year ago, and I had totally forgotten about it until I was emailed yesterday about it. I’m not exactly [...]

User Showcase Highlight Round 12

10. September 2008

Comments

First of all let me say how difficult it is to pick just two pieces out of all the new and beautiful entries to the User Showcase. I’m pretty sure it came down to what I ate for breakfast this time around. The showcase keeps growing; it’s currently up to 630 members and 1142 [...]

Go Media Vectors Found on Tees at Target

I mentioned in my post about the usage of stock art that I found some poorly designed interesting tees at Target that abused featured the Go Media Vector Packs. Joe had asked what tees I was talking about so I am posting them here. Some of the designs are kinda neat, and others are [...]

5. September 2008

Comments

I had some spare time at home last week and thought I’d submit something to Design by Humans’ 10K contest. I tweaked another piece from 2006’s Concentric Series into a tee. I actually think it will make a better shirt than the design that won shirt of the month in June,which is currently [...]
