  • Rah.said 90 weeks ago

    Very interesting and i love the tee color but for once in the entire history of teefury i think i need the design explained to me...
  • Gerrard-ohsaid 90 weeks ago

    That's such a cool shirt!! :D
  • Zomnivoresaid 90 weeks ago

    Remember seeing this, don't recall if it was side art or just in his portfolio, feels like somethings changed anyhow, besides the background.
  • canadabatsaid 90 weeks ago

    I think I like it. I'm not certain though.
  • Losrandirsaid 90 weeks ago

    Awesome! Would buy it!

    headphone side art is sick too
  • fitftwsaid 90 weeks ago

    I don't quite understand this shirt
  • said 90 weeks ago

    Its always about watching out for the little people
  • SURFersaid 90 weeks ago

    MAC or PC?
    Oh definitely Mac. Without a doubt. Using Windows makes my brain feel like a thousand ants are biting it from the inside. I can't be the only one who feels like that can I? Surely not.

    I feel exactly the same way.
    BTW... I adore my Tempest In A Teacup tee. Thanks again.
  • jack ryansaid 90 weeks ago

    I also want the monkey shirt
  • sheletalsaid 90 weeks ago

    I dig it, that and the monkey face.
  • cscornettesaid 90 weeks ago

    Best one in at least a week. Military Green was a good choice for shirt color.
  • Cecilgenesaid 90 weeks ago

    I would buy a shirt featuring the chimp in a heartbeat.

    hmm well I thought something changed, like the people felt bigger or something, but I guess not.
  • bigfool0724said 90 weeks ago

    I have no idea why, but this feels very Japanese... I LIKE IT!!!! buying!
  • LesterGroanssaid 90 weeks ago

    KHAAAAAAAN, I like this design(side art too). I'm still waiting to get my grab bags before I get anymore though :( I'll sleep on it.
  • Ohcomeonnowsaid 90 weeks ago

    omega1300 said: Kind of dark and ominous - I like it



    My thoughts exactly....Buying it.
  • SmoothVincesaid 90 weeks ago

    foepaws said: 1984-esque.

    my thoughts exactly
    really liking all the side art too
    i think this one is definately a buy
  • Scarletsaid 90 weeks ago

    Ooooooh. I love this tee, and I'd love to see more from this artist (headphones!).
  • leastsaid 90 weeks ago

    Oh my god I love this design, but army green is one of my least favorite colors (it simply does not look good on me) : Headphones & Mona Lisa side art are both fantastic as well.
  • nikusaid 90 weeks ago

    this tee is so rad! the design is really well thought out and i really like the people at the bottom, really brings it all together well. not to mention its nice to see the fury branching out with its blank colours!

    ive only really got one thing to say though...

    "i always feel like somebody's watchinnnnn me" :P
  • K1NG_TUTTTsaid 90 weeks ago

    I interpret this design as the "head-honchos" of society are always monitoring your every move, causing mass paranoia among the public. I feel this is true in today's world!
    Awesome design
  • TMFsaid 90 weeks ago

    Haha nice shirt. Not sure if I'll buy it but definitely going to sleep on it
  • fromtosaid 90 weeks ago

    Not for me. Love the chimp shirt though
  • headsupcustomssaid 90 weeks ago

    very cool and interesting and THANK YOU a real, great shirt color. noot sure if i would get it, but i do like it, although if i were to change anything i might make the image a teensy bit smaller.
  • franklin4710said 90 weeks ago

    I would be all over that monkey side art
  • gutterflower_86said 90 weeks ago

    I second that we need an IRON MAN shirt asafp!!
  • iamdrakesaid 90 weeks ago

    Great shirt... Had to buy it.
  • fitftwsaid 90 weeks ago

    bought!
  • Jethrosaid 90 weeks ago

    I really like the design, goes really well with the shirt color. Were the little people added? I didn't notice them when I first saw this as side art.
  • bp013said 90 weeks ago

    really like this design, but probably shouldn't be buying any shirts right now. I definitely would love to see more from Ross and the storm in the teacup is one of my favorite shirts now
  • diuysaid 90 weeks ago

    You've got a gift. I bought the tempest shirt and I love it, I'm looking to buy this one as well in the morning.
  • Bethshebasaid 90 weeks ago

    I am curious about some more interpretations of this shirt.
  • Resistosaid 90 weeks ago

    I think the colour of the cameras themselves have been changed to suit the Tshirt colour, and it looks fantastic.

    Nice work Ross
  • sawbones84said 90 weeks ago

    was this on design by humans before? looks sorta familiar. cool shirt

    I thought the same thing. Hi, first post. I really like this design but I prefer my t-shirts to make a slightly more neutral statement. ;) I would totally buy the splatter monkey and the Mona Lisa. Great work!
  • EricMorrissaid 90 weeks ago

    bought....!
  • DisastorousLogicsaid 90 weeks ago

    What is going on with the suit collar on the one on the far left? Is there no back to it or something?
  • Remyrollsaid 90 weeks ago

    Awesome, reminds me of 1984...will buy =)
  • wringzsaid 90 weeks ago

    thanks teefury for reminding me that i missed out on storm in a teacup :P
  • SnowDogsaid 90 weeks ago

    I don't get it :0/
  • Chihuahuasaid 90 weeks ago

    This is a really really cool shirt, those camera-faces remind me of the monitor-heads on G4, and the people on the bottom look like kanji from far away.
  • braincoffeesaid 90 weeks ago

    DAYUM, i REALLY LIKE the headphones side art.
  • Jgraz22said 90 weeks ago

    foepaws said: 1984-esque.

    I was thinking the exact same thing good call
    this shirt is really cool I'm probably gonna have to buy this one
  • Clubbersaid 90 weeks ago

    Love the color, but the image makes me sad. I'm paranoid as it already is. Also, love the headphones on the side there.
  • gohlkussaid 90 weeks ago

    Awesome, buying... even though I don't. Need. It. At. All.

    Is there a t-shirts anonymous group somewhere? Hi, I'm gohlkus, and I'm a t-shirt addict.
  • Suddendepthsaid 90 weeks ago

    very blue man
  • gugibufugisaid 90 weeks ago

    I want the Mona Lisa design on a shirt! PLEASE print this one!
  • RossRobinsonsaid 90 weeks ago

    It's a comment on modern governments (especially in the UK) who want to monitor and intrude on our every move and thought. CCTV cameras have become so omnipresent that we forget to question why they are there and who is watching. Thanx for the kind comments BTW.
  • Robotikasaid 90 weeks ago

    Ah this is so unfair! I cannot afford more shirts!
  • gugibufugisaid 90 weeks ago

    YES! Found it on redbubble. Thanks Ross! You rock man.
  • LadyCrymsynsaid 90 weeks ago

    Awesome design! The olive-drab t-shirt colour is very appropriate for this Big-Brother-esque image.
    I must admit, like a few other people, when I saw the small version I thought the people on the bottom were actually kanji. I'm very happy that they are not - this sort of phenomenon is far too universal to associate it with just one culture like that.
    The large CCTV people standing over everyone does bring to mind the question "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?" (Or, "Who watches the watchmen?", if your Latin is rusty). Again, a very nice and timely design.
  • ekiechisaid 90 weeks ago

    GOD i want this! but i must resist temptation and stick to my 6 shirt grab bag declaration. Also, print the mona lisa dots and i might just have to break that vow
  • LesHugsaid 90 weeks ago

    Must. Save. Money. For. L*O*S*T. Shirts. Must. Resist. The. Coolness.
  • Tzigonesaid 90 weeks ago

    Monkey Monkey Monkey! Love the Monkey Side Art! Would Definitely buy that shirt.
  • DesignHimsaid 90 weeks ago

    Is that thin white box surrounding the design going to be on the shirt? If so, do not want.
  • gaiaspriestesssaid 90 weeks ago

    Wow Ross, your work is really interesting. Lots of stuff that made me giggle, think, or just that I could relate to. I love the one with the bird and the maple tree, I might buy it off that other site when I can scrounge up some money (just had a very expensive knee surgery for my dog, so it might be a bit). Grats on some real talent and awesome creativity.
  • Mr Eleganzasaid 90 weeks ago

    Dig the Big Brother is watching theme, just ordered mine :)
  • burndogsaid 90 weeks ago

    Are thse comments under the design going to be on the shirt? Of so, do not want.
  • phalonartsaid 90 weeks ago

    love the print and all the side art. great job!
  • paulkingsaid 90 weeks ago

    I love this design. I work as security for federal facilities and spend the majority of my day staring at a cctv monitor. Really like the side art also. Hope to see more from this artist.
  • guythecatsaid 90 weeks ago

    See now THIS design is awesome.... I can respect the idea as well as the execution. Smooth clean lines, Great colors, interesting effects with the dissipation lines across the bottom of the figures, and the miniature foot traffic just ties it all together and and really gives the piece some power. All the praise aside - I'd like to use the opportunity to say this: We are all artists, making art here. Art is open to be viewed or interpreted by any one as they see fit. If I thought a design was pure smurf, and I said so, thats fine. The artist who created it obviously knows each and every one of their works aren't going to speak personally to EVERYONE. Criticism is constructive and helpful no matter how crudely worded it may be, as long as it received with an open mind and heart, and given thoughtful consideration. Seriously though I have seen honest feedback and critiquing get bashed on this site cause some people round here feel no one should utter a bad word against the art as it might disrespect all the artists "hard work". This attitude is so naive its laughable (it's kinda like you're saying every design on here is GOLDEN and untouchable, which is false - about 35% of the designs on this site are godawful, and are only being printed here cause no one other company would dare). Those of you who went to a decent art school are very used to critiques and even getting bashed a bit by your professors, and understand criticism is a necessary part of the design process. Those of us who went to top art and design schools are mostly only used to getting negative feedback, in a positive manner mind you, but still... The ones whining and nit-picking over other peoples comments - grow a pair. My two cents - sure it will generate some nonsense responses.

    I like it, but I already have this shirt which is very similar:

  • kgvectsaid 90 weeks ago

    Pretty cool shirt. I want it.
  • bluchezsaid 90 weeks ago

    This is a business website, not an art appreciation class or a museum. I think anyone who doesn't respect that they can choose what comments to allow and disallow should grow a pair. ;)
  • Moses519said 90 weeks ago

    I might buy this. I'm gonna see how much I got paid and think on it at work tomorrow.
  • antsinthekitchensaid 90 weeks ago

    I also really like the Splatter Monkey side art, would make an awesome graffiti stencil template.
  • orkoryansaid 90 weeks ago

    Love it, bought it. this shirt is off the grid yo
  • yanmossaid 90 weeks ago

    This is really a great design!
  • Hopeysaid 90 weeks ago

    I'd love to see the results of the 22-artist Tarot card project. I think it's a great idea! You should ask Jimi to participate.
  • guythecatsaid 90 weeks ago

    This is a business website, not an art appreciation class or a museum. - ARE YOU Spocking Rikered?!?!? Yeah dude tee fury is all about the business thats why the WesleyCrusher is available for only ONE DAY - how many other companies do you see copying that business model? ZERO! ABSOLUTE Spocking ZERO - you know why? Its a terrible way to make money. It doesn't allow any word of mouth to spread about a particular design or designer, there's no order to it what so ever, the shirts have no unifying theme or schedule to their releases. You know what IS a business? Mc Donalds. Do you see them selling the Big Mac for one day only. No. Cause they want to MAKE MONEY.

    Seriously, read this site's posting guidelines. We have no problem with polite constructive criticism. There is a huge difference between constructively showing an artist that there is room for improvement and blatantly insulting the artist or other posters. The former is okay (and encouraged), the latter will be deleted and may even lead to banning.

    Often, posters complaining about other posts are talking about things so bad they had to be removed. For instance, comparing the artist to a famous dictator based purely on a dislike of their design, or threatening behavior towards other posters (both of which happened yesterday).

    We're moderating comments for a reason ;)

  • a screen on tee furysaid 90 weeks ago

    very cool design. nice work. the next "artsy fartsy" design should definatly be the mona lisa side art. feel free to use the term "artsy fartsy" as well. it's fun.
  • dustydog823said 90 weeks ago

    Definitely one of the coolest I've ever seen on this site. The Mona Lisa is a huge want for me too, please make these!
  • Slaapy McGoosaid 90 weeks ago

    this shirt is truly art you can just look at it and get lost in thought
    great job
  • AdrnPsaid 90 weeks ago

    shopping cart side art!
  • Resistosaid 90 weeks ago

    I haven`t heard anyone say "grow a pair" in the longest time..
    I`m all for it, grow all type of fruit. It`s good for you.

    And oh yes, Ross is one hell of a clever designer..
  • Dustbunnysaid 90 weeks ago

    Very amusing =D
  • tonymontana444said 90 weeks ago

    Mona Lisa!

  • tonymontana444said 90 weeks ago

    i bought "storm", on the fence for this one!?!
  • ericinabingtonsaid 90 weeks ago

    BIG BROTHER IS WATCHIN.....always
  • Spiralmindsaid 90 weeks ago

    Oddly enough, it reminds me of a certain Dylan Dog comic. Very tempted to buy.
  • friedricelunchsaid 90 weeks ago

    Bought one, love the camera heads.....love the meaning behind it. The more fear(real or propaganda)the more cameras.
  • fivefootmayhemsaid 90 weeks ago

    Neat! And the color choice is pretty awesome. I also LOVE the monkey splat and Mona Lisa side art!
  • alainsaid 90 weeks ago

    This is amazing...my first buy since the FOTC shirt (which I wore today, coincidentally)
  • braincoffeesaid 90 weeks ago

    made up my mind and bought it. GET THE HEADPHONE SIDE ART ON A SHIRT PLLLLZZZZ! but
  • bigbadbrad01said 90 weeks ago

    I knew I saw this idea before:
    http://somewhereelse.com/shirt/04/04/2010/control

    Definitely reminds me of the traffic cameras here in AZ.
  • Dali Vilesaid 90 weeks ago

    Not really my colour but I dig the dot matrix mona lisa in the side art.
  • BiggerBosssaid 90 weeks ago

    Heh, i can see the lines in which the picture was shopped onto the shirt. And is that little kid rapping?
  • Kangaroo42said 90 weeks ago

    Awesome! The 'suits' are watching all the little people.

    Fantastic design, and I love the monkey and Mona Lisa too.
  • moviecraz13said 90 weeks ago

    This is a fabulous shirt! I love the side art too! You got a great portfolio! It's original and creative. I like the Mona Lisa and Monkey Splat side art especially.
  • chefsaid 90 weeks ago

    I love the shopping cart
  • jukeboxhero515said 90 weeks ago

    Big Brother's watching
  • DCameronsaid 90 weeks ago

    BANKSY + 1984. I'm not saying anything about copied work or imitations or anything because I don't really care about all that, but if you like this, you should look up some Banksy work. Very cool design & might get later today.
  • bigbellysaid 90 weeks ago

    yeah the monkey is cool. the mona lisa is cool/different. the shopping cart is what caught my eye.... very nice.
  • Bulbasaursaid 90 weeks ago

    I really want the shopping cart. Sleeping on this one.
  • stealthypancakesaid 90 weeks ago

    I'm assuming that the square outline wouldn't actually be on the shirt right?
  • stealthypancakesaid 90 weeks ago

    Bulbasaur said: I really want the shopping cart. Sleeping on this one.
    You can't sleep on a shirt that you don't own.
  • RubyRedTeessaid 90 weeks ago

    Always loved this one Ross. Being British I'm used to seeing these cameras everywhere, we have something like one for every 12 people I think.
  • Ziggy Pastasaid 90 weeks ago

    The first thing I thought of was "Big Brother". I will agree with some of the others on here who've commented -- it's very 1984!

    But then the big Final Fantasy VII nerd part of me took over and I thought "HAHA! It's the Turks!! Always watching..." And they wear suits too. :D

    I'm so buying this just because now it reminds me of them. *shot*

  • bigbellysaid 90 weeks ago

    teefury is a business... they don't make kid sizes yet but if the market shows that's what the masses want then that's what they'll sell. i'm not speaking for anybody (especially not teefury) but it would be stupid not to. art is great and amazing but it can be profitable too... you can make art to be noticed but can you survive on recognition??? if you want to live, you must make money.

    Thanx RR. Yeah, I had the UK in mind when I did this years and years ago. I think it has only gotten worse since then. I do often wonder what Orwell would think.

    It is neither new, or super limited-edition.
  • thelinguinesaid 90 weeks ago

    The $9 TeeFury screenprint certainly is. If you'd prefer to pay $20+ for a direct-to-garment print from another site (RedBubble is a site like CafePress that allows artists to upload graphics), you are certainly welcome to do so :)

    While we prefer to print work that has yet to be seen on any site, DTG or otherwise, we're willing to make exceptions for work like this design, which was requested by many posters when it was previously seen in the side art.
  • eckieeeeeeeesaid 90 weeks ago

    I love the design, I don't like the t-shirt colour though But the design is awesome.

    Finally someone with some background haha. I totally agree with you man. I, only being in my second year of design school, think that critiques (especially the brutal ones) are the most helpful part of the learning process. Any crit is good crit! ALSO PLEASE PRINT THE MONA LISA DOTS! Wow that is simplicity at its finest!!!
  • jaddaxsaid 90 weeks ago

    Fantastic design and way too right on.
  • CPUT99said 90 weeks ago

    As an employee of the government I gotta get one haha... *shifty eyes*

    Thanks too, this is my first purchase from here in a looooooonnnngggggg time.
  • CPUT99said 90 weeks ago

    I think the drab, military-colored green adds to the effect of the overall design but just from a sheer wearability standpoint I kinda wish it were on like a charcoal or whatever. But still, digging it for sure. Snagging one. Hope it doesn't fade...
  • NowHiringHenchmensaid 90 weeks ago

    This is just way too awesome. MAY buy this.
  • melxsaid 90 weeks ago

    I've been 'watching' tee fury for two weeks now and this is the first design that's really grabbed me. As soon as I saw it I knew it was a UK artist.

    Love it, buying it!
  • braindrain666said 90 weeks ago

    You print monkey--I buy monkey!!!!

    P.s. Love the shirt!
  • aligimpsaid 90 weeks ago

    Lovin the design. This totally brought Banksy and 1984 to the front of my thinking box, which can only be a good thing! An issue close to my heart it is estimated that on an average day in the uk our image is captured close to 200 times!! Scary, but a trend that worries me more is individuals putting cameras up and filming public areas, this is not covered by any legislation, and opens up a minefield of liberty arguments. If you've ever had the pleasure as I have of being in the CCTV control room watching a lard arsed government official in ill fitting polyester slacks zooming in on images of kids throwing snow balls at each other, the reality of big brother is about as depressing as we have the ability to imagine. I'm buying this for my hubby who successfully bid to get funding for cameras to prevent crime in our neighbourhood. I leave you to imagine the fun conversations at our dinner table!

    Seriously, great work, love the shopping trolley side art too.

    You put up a camera, I put up my hood, go figure.
  • Parktronsaid 90 weeks ago

    Great design, fitting color. Love the lines at the bottom and the 'little people'. Also the one figure with his back turned, nice touch.
    One thought though. Ive been hearing about people who want childrens shirts. Im not feeling the idea. Thoughts?
  • Parktronsaid 90 weeks ago

    Headphones and Mona need to be printed btw
  • xalternativeguysaid 90 weeks ago

    This is undoubtedly the greatest shirt I've ever seen in my life.
  • lazytulipsaid 90 weeks ago

    before I saw the close-up shot, I thought the tiny people were actually Japanese words lol


    I thought the same thing. Hi, first post. I really like this design but I prefer my t-shirts to make a slightly more neutral statement. ;) I would totally buy the splatter monkey and the Mona Lisa. Great work!


    haha me too!
    I really like the design, might buy it.. still have to thinj about it though. :)
    keep up the good work!
  • Night_Owlsaid 90 weeks ago

    This is really cool, I love it. But don't really see myself wearing it, so I'm passing.
    I love that the small people below look almost like Japanese characters, very clever.

    And the side art is amazing. I'm loving the Mona Lisa!

  • realtaruasaid 90 weeks ago

    Man, I am really diggin this shirt. And after last night's episode of Fringe I want it all the more (for those of you in the dark, look it up on Hulu, simply amazing). It is executed very well and looks great on the green. Congrats on the print. :D

  • jaqosaid 90 weeks ago

    Not crazy about politicizing my chest for anyone or anything (surveillance, more often than not, is your private and public friend), but I am having a hard time refusin' this one. The design has a remarkably economic and effective perspective. Giants watching the little people doing their daily things, surreptitiously fading away at the roots of daily life. Niceeeeee... The chimp and headphone side art are winners too.
  • kbob42said 90 weeks ago

    guythecat said: See now THIS design is awesome.... I can respect the idea as well as the execution. Smooth clean lines, Great colors, interesting effects with the dissipation lines across the bottom of the figures, and the miniature foot traffic just ties it all together and and really gives the piece some power. All the praise aside - I'd like to use the opportunity to say this: We are all artists, making art here. Art is open to be viewed or interpreted by any one as they see fit. If I thought a design was pure smurf, and I said so, thats fine. The artist who created it obviously knows each and every one of their works aren't going to speak personally to EVERYONE. Criticism is constructive and helpful no matter how crudely worded it may be, as long as it received with an open mind and heart, and given thoughtful consideration. Seriously though I have seen honest feedback and critiquing get bashed on this site cause some people round here feel no one should utter a bad word against the art as it might disrespect all the artists "hard work". This attitude is so naive its laughable (it's kinda like you're saying every design on here is GOLDEN and untouchable, which is false - about 35% of the designs on this site are godawful, and are only being printed here cause no one other company would dare). Those of you who went to a decent art school are very used to critiques and even getting bashed a bit by your professors, and understand criticism is a necessary part of the design process. Those of us who went to top art and design schools are mostly only used to getting negative feedback, in a positive manner mind you, but still... The ones whining and nit-picking over other peoples comments - grow a pair. My two cents - sure it will generate some nonsense responses.


    Yeah nonsense posts do tend to generate nonsense responses.

    Oh definitely Mac. Without a doubt. Using Windows makes my brain feel like a thousand ants are biting it from the inside. I can't be the only one who feels like that can I? Surely not.

    I feel exactly the same way.
    BTW... I adore my Tempest In A Teacup tee. Thanks again.


    Funny, this is how I feel when I use a Mac.

    Love the design! Sadly, I'm too pale to wear olive.
  • Rah.said 90 weeks ago

    Just to clarify...

    Comparing getting "bashed" here with what a prof in art school would say is ridiculous. In art school you are PAYING people with CREDENTIALS to judge your work and TEACH you how to fix it. They are supposedly better then you at what you do so you listen and learn. Here there is no gauge to decide what an opinion is worth. So by your logic when a teenager who has NO ART EXPERIENCE AT ALL says "wow your shirt design is worthless dude" or "I'd wear that if i were 5 years old haha" you think that critique should be "received with an open mind and heart, and given thoughtful consideration"??

    Seriously?

    That is pure nonsense.

    The rule is simple, you can be negative as long as you are nice about it. How is that difficult? It's not actually.
  • superpopesaid 90 weeks ago

    I came to this site today because somebody told me they were OUTRAGED that this shirt was a rip-off of a design I had printed a while back.

    The composition is much the same and the subject is similar, but I think it's pure coincidence. Congrats on the print!
  • Sailor Millenniumsaid 90 weeks ago

    Ziggy Pasta said: The first thing I thought of was "Big Brother". I will agree with some of the others on here who've commented -- it's very 1984!

    But then the big Final Fantasy VII nerd part of me took over and I thought "HAHA! It's the Turks!! Always watching..." And they wear suits too. :D

    I'm so buying this just because now it reminds me of them. *shot*

    I thought Big Brother right away too.
    Once you mention FF VII, they do remind me of the Turks. 2nd from the right is the blond.
    Absolutely brilliant work again Mr. Robinson. I'm quite disappointed I didn't get your last work. This one is a must buy; I won't it slip past me.
  • Rabscuttlesaid 90 weeks ago

    This is a very interesting design. Consider my thoughts provoked.
  • xopodssaid 90 weeks ago

    The message of this tee is kind of trite and overdone. Also, in combination with the shopping cart design on the right, it makes me feel the artist is drawing a little too obvious on Banksy for themes (though not style)... nothing wrong with looking to other great artists for inspiration, but if I know at a glance where you're getting something, it's probably too overt.

    However, I love the splatter monkey. Halftone Mona Lisa is also kind of cool, though I don't know why people always choose that particular painting to redo in alternate media; there are plenty of others that are equally recognizable.
  • quenfissaid 90 weeks ago

    Cory Doctorow would approve (or disapprove depending on your take.) Cool design.
  • Darth Revansaid 90 weeks ago

    I think this is a great design...well executed and very appropriate when considering current affairs. It's not too busy...the line work is clean and very appealing. AND I love the color. I like a large spectrum of color when it comes to clothing and considering the theme of the shirt the color is very fitting...will be back later to snag one!

    On a sidenote, LeRenard, I just have to tell you that I love your avatar pic...I miss Stargate Atlantis and SG-1.
  • s.cadencesaid 90 weeks ago

  • Tom Ledinsaid 90 weeks ago

    I dig it. Sure, it's a Banksy idea, but it's still well done. My only wish is that the collar on the far left were resolved a little better.

    With more people making art than ever before in human history, people will undoubtedly come up with similar ideas. It has happened to me a few times.

    Here's the banksy art if anybody is curious.

    Could be a Hard-Fi shirt. Great design!

    Oh yeah, don't go to art school. The quality and value of art is relative, and depends on the artist's intent, which 80% of the time is interpreted and not known. I could rant all day about how Jackson Pollock was a drunken bastard that stumbled around, accidentally knocking buckets of paint onto some canvas while he was plastered. But it is still art, even though I think it's smurfy and lazy. If I paint something and I accomplish what I intended to do and am happy, then I could give a flying blue duck about what some stranger thinks about it.

    guythecat said: This is a business website, not an art appreciation class or a museum. - ARE YOU Spocking Rikered?!?!? Yeah dude tee fury is all about the business thats why the WesleyCrusher is available for only ONE DAY - how many other companies do you see copying that business model? ZERO! ABSOLUTE Spocking ZERO - you know why? Its a terrible way to make money. It doesn't allow any word of mouth to spread about a particular design or designer, there's no order to it what so ever, the shirts have no unifying theme or schedule to their releases. You know what IS a business? Mc Donalds. Do you see them selling the Big Mac for one day only. No. Cause they want to MAKE MONEY.


    I can't speak for anyone else here, but the reason I'm here every night is because I never know what I'm going to find...that's part of the fun! How many shirt websites have you gone to, saw what they had on a particular day, didn't care for it and never went back? My daughter and myself love the idea of buying something that for the most part, won't be available after the 24 hours because we HATE seeing someone else wearing the same shirt.
