it’s meant to more or less look like a thick black line from further away, thanks for the vote!
wow now this one is really cool….needs to be more typography on this design site…good job
kooo! nice play with type, but im not sure about the density bein centered. +one!
i thought that a centered density would make the shirt look cooler worn together with quality jeans and accent the wearer’s body as a whole. i agree that a more “free” composition would make the shirt alone look, perhaps, better but probably just the shirt alone.
Cool but not too sure about the about the center. Looks more like a tire mark. But, good stuff.
GREAT!! always GRRREAT!!! this is one lovely, chaotic little exibit here!The down the centre letter splash is especially AWESOME. I LOVE It!!! And now, as always: “GENIUSS,COOL, AND VOTED!”
The dense letters in the middle are OK as the red arrow distracts from it a little bit. So it is good composition for me. Great.

VOTED TO THE POWER OF TEN!!!
cool shirt, i like the concept. I wonder if there any hidden messages in the shirt… Congrats on the win
yeah, one full year in dbh well spent! thanks to the voters and pickers! i love how this has turned out
This is a cool design, even though my mind gets a Matrix feel for some reason ;P. THis is basically how my brain works, random letters floating around which I’ve got to piece together to form words.. “Oh, Schnap, that doesn’t go ther!e”.
I really really like it.
Too bad it doesn’t come in female sizes.. a lot of the shirts I would definitely buy are only for guy sized. >:
i like the style you have very cool. finally a quality shirt, i mean some of the shirts that win i am confused about especially the last couple. way to get things back on track. ima buy this. peace
if you see this i was jsut wondering would you please write me back how many votes this had upon winning. And how long this shirt has been posted before today. just curious
An interesting design. I would have preferred a less emphasized vertical bar of letters in the middle, tho.
nice shirt dude. congrats on the win! probably going to pick one of these up soon.
Definitely purchasing in my next set. I was hoping this would get printed! Nice work!
Great:D and the black line in the middle is cool, I like it… but the best of is the red arrow… LOVE

I like your designs quite a bit. I’m getting tired of sculls and bones so this is kind of refreshing.
dagnis: great tshirt; have bought a pair. Question: So what does the red arrow really signify???
I’d say it does the most typical function you could expect from an arrow — points a direction. In this case it accomplishes that function by catching the attention of the viewer first by being red. As a result the viewer notices a little, perhaps even alive being floating in a seemingly pointless soup of letters! And is probably made curious to look for more.






I like it but I feel there is too much black in the middle. Voted
