    nice and simple but executed perfectly. i love how the teacup isn't just a plain old white cup but apart of the wave/painting as well. Just wish it wasn't smack-dap center of the shirt. kinda empty feeling compared to the original.

    TurnThePaigesaid 101 weeks ago

    i agree that there is no need to fill all of the space on the shirt, and the colors are grand.
    the only thing that would make this a buy for me is different placement of the cup possibly, like near the bottom of the shirt possibly.
    this is still a very nice design tho, congrats :]

    randomizer_1991said 101 weeks ago

    i like it but i think that the Mona Lisa and Security Camera side art is way better. This shirt is just lacking something. The design barely covers the shirt and it just seems odd to me.

    You can have your very own Mona Lisa, or any other picture for that matter, in the same art form.

    http://homokaasu.org/rasterbator/

    It's an online, or downloadable program that will take any image, and "dotify" it. You can have a 50 foot tall Mona Lisa, if you'd like :).

    What happened to the misplaced-themed shirts on Tuesdays anyway? Not that I want to own 846 misplaced shirts, but WWJLD and Smokey protecting the island were definitely awesome...looking forward to the Desmond "Brother" (Constant is good, Brother is better) and Hurley "Dude" shirts in the Fairey Barack illustration style that was on the side when WWJLD was released.
  • image

    ducktreesaid 101 weeks ago

    Um, I don't know why the word L.O.S.T. was replaced by "misplaced", but ok. Also meant to add that the illustration of Desmond would in my opinion be enhanced by him with his beard rather than clean shaven. Geez, O.B.A.M.A. was also replaced with Barack...is big brother on TeeFury???

    I don't agree that this needs to fill the shirt. There are far too many that fill the shirt and end up looking cheap and tacky. This actually looks cool in this minimalist format.

    1. It isn't "plagiarism" (look up the definition)
    2. The design's merit is not in the artist's ability to cut and paste a famous drawing of a wave and render a teacup, but in the matching of the two concepts into a cohesive idea.
    3. Lighten up.

    codenamerockysaid 101 weeks ago

    You guys asking for the design to fill the cup are incredibly dense.

    The design size is perfect for what it is...a storm in a TEACUP...

    Let me be blunt, how big is a teacup?? Its small yes?? Well the purpose of this design is to show its absurdity of having a storm within a small teacup...Would it be as effective if the teacup took up the entire shirt as you are suggesting??? ummmm no

    Seriously people, sometimes bigger isn't better.

    Its a buy for me! Congrats on the sweet design.

  • image

    Perseussaid 101 weeks ago

    That's quite the design. The metaphorical aspects of the shirt bring out the complex reality of life. In the simplest, most basic existences we can find the violent and chaotic truth. Life, like the water is formless and limitless, and yet it is a power force beyond measure. To contain this emergence, capture it, truly capture it in simplicity, is indeed powerful. Although weather may be the concept presented here through use of Hokusai's "The Great Wave off Kanagawa" , it truly is a metaphor for the nature and chaos contained within that which is civilized and man-made. Bravo.

    (This isn't meant specifically against either person quoted above; it was just the tipping-point example for something that's been bugging me for a while...)

    I honestly don't believe that Teefury *purposefully* picks/prints designs they think their site's audience is going to dislike.

    Part of it's going to be each curator's personal preference, in which case, you're totally allowed to not be a fan of someone's taste in designs, but that's just the way things are in life. Everyone isn't always going to like the exact same things. That's the beauty of there being a *NEW* design every day!

    On that same note, 1/2 the people here complain when there's a [insert pop bacteria icon/reference here] spoofalicious design, but guess what? The other 1/2 are saying, "Whoo! I
    But most importantly, when you've got to put up a new design every day, and you only have the submitted designs that you have... It's always going to be a judgment call, and you try to do the best you can w/ what you've been given.

    Looking at yesterday's shirt, jimiyo had a design for sale, which, even though it wasn't my particular style, was a stunningly executed design, and that's what gives me faith that these guys know what they're doing. Because regardless of whether their particular style is your cup of tea, they're all still phenomenal artists.

    I just get really tired of people accusing Teefury of not holding themselves to high standards. I think they do hold themselves to high standards, and that's a completely different matter from whether or not their audience feels that those standards have been met for that particular day. In the overall history of this site, if you felt like Teefury consistently selected poor designs, would you really still be coming back here every day?

    And really, if *every single day* there was a shirt that you thought was fantastic, you'd either go really broke really quick, or just be constantly frustrated that there were these amazing tees you wanted to own, but couldn't because you couldn't afford it!

    My very long-winded ;P point is, you're totally entitled to not like the design for the day, and you're totally entitled to talk about why you don't like that particular design, and you're totally entitled to think that the people running the site don't know what they're doing, but if that's the case, you're also totally entitled to go somewhere else.

    So, Teefury, even though I'm obviously not buying every single day's tee, I definitely own a decent amount of them, and it's as much due to the skill of the designers as it is to your guys' ability to recognize the skill of those designers as well. So as far as I'm concerned, keep on doin' what you're doin', 'cause even though I've never bought, or barely even visited, anything from any other t-shirt sites, you've had me hooked on your site for over a year now. =)

    /excessively long rant =P

    sorry about that, guys... just really needed to get that off my chest... XP

    I have to say, if I were to draw something along the same lines as what comes on every apple computer as a desktop, I would not have kept the same image... I agree with joshamman, its one thing to have a great idea (aka tea cup with tsunami waves coming out of the cup) but its another to cut and paste almost image for image. Great idea though, just not very personalized

    But I dont get it. I thought that the tees available on teefury are available for 24h exclusively, only, and no other place than teefury, because this is what makes this place so special. Why then I see the same tee on http://www.redbubble.com/people/rossman72/t-shirts/4513734-3-storm-in-a-teacup .... or am I wrong? Dont tell me that this is because the background color is different?

    1. It isn't "plagiarism" (look up the definition)

    2. The design's merit is not in the artist's ability to cut and paste a famous drawing of a wave and render a teacup, but in the matching of the two concepts into a cohesive idea.

    3. Lighten up.

    I was looking at the original design by Hokusai and this design. It seems that the artist was intentionally trying to mimic the style but I think that he didn't just copy and paste the waves. They look subtly different but similar enough that you get the idea. I think it is a marvelous design and I love how there is a large wave coming out of a teacup. I also think that the size of the design is perfect, its not overpowering. And since when has it become "plagiarism" when an artist is *gasp* inspired by another artist? People need to chill.

    Congrats on the print. A fantastic design.

    I love the concept of the tsunami in the teacup,
    it's like the human spirit in a body. Also culturally, I've always loved the style,
    and the art, and well, it's the power of the ocean... what more can ya say?
    Everything about the design is awesome.
