Join the club: The shirts.
Hokay, so. Macx_larabee is awesome and wrote a story based off of my comic that was based off of her series. The reception has been pretty damn good since I first drew that comic, and numerous people have said they'd buy the shirt, were it offered. So, I finally got off of my lazy tukkus and dug up my old Cafepress shop.
Only, I have one teeny-weeny problem.
I suck at making text look good.
Thus, this is me, asking you all (the folks who'd be buying these things, and I'll be selling them at base price) for a bit of help in the typesetting area. At the bottom of this post are links to a few images I cooked up in Photoshop; any advice or critique or suggestions or your own designs are welcome. The only concrete thing is what the shirt/bumpersticker/hat/other will say, and the fact that it will be black-on-white. If I can get a good shirt design down, I can do the rest. And as per Cafepress's rules, no copyrighted images/names can be used (like the Autobot symbol)
Plz to help?
Basic design, nice and boring.
Playing with font and the free transform tool.
Fun with brushes and layer effects, I kind of like how this turned out
Cafepress's template for t-shirts (a 2000px*2000px .jpg in a .zip file)
EDIT
Whilst walking my semi-sober butt back to the hotel, I realized one thing that was bothering me with the designs I had - they were ONLY text. Thus, I thought to sit down, and draw up a few runes and maybe some funky techno-organic DNA or whatever, only to get back and realized that, while I had my tablet, my tablet pen was on the boat. So, until I can find the blasted thing, anyone up to the challenge?
