Title: TIGJam TIGShirts
Post by: Derek on September 10, 2008, 04:02:44 PM
Currently, TIGJam attendees are voting on one of three designs for the official TIGJam TIGShirt, which will be given out at the Jam!  Here are the design sketches:

Drippy Monocle:

Owls:

Monster Joystick:

(A tribute to the late great Ed "Big Daddy" Roth)

Notes: the first two designs will have the TIGJam log on the back.  Also, the final designs will be more polished.

I tried to create stuff that would look cool enough to wear on a day-to-day basis.  Would you guys wear these?  Let us know what you think!

And I'll release the Illustrator files for each one next week, for those that aren't attending and want to make a shirt themselves.

I love that drippy monocle.  So awesome.  ALl of these shirts are cool, though.

Will there be a chance to get these shirts if we can't make it to the Jam?  Beyond making the shirts ourselves, I mean.

This. The world needs more indie gaming shirts.

EDIT: I quite fancy the owls design.

These are great! I'd also be interested in buying them, even though I can't go to the Jam.

<3 the ed roth design, big time.  Have you considered something like this?

Haha!

I voted for the first one, natch.  :gentleman:

Whatever happens, I want that on a shirt. As soon as possible.

Hot damn, that drippy monocle shirt :-* :-*

Hm, I'd see myself in the monocle one more... but that's only because the owl design terrifies me at the very core of my being.

Also, get me in so I can buy a bloody plane ticket before it's too late.  (Please!)

I'd like to purchase 20 owl shirts, please.

Yeah, I'd like an Owl shirt too :) Can you send a few to TIGJam:UK? :)


Title: Re: TIGJam TIGShirts
Post by: Renton on September 11, 2008, 06:25:35 AM
If you're able to send them away, I'll give you an address you can send one so I can pick up when I come to the US some 5 years later >:D

I prefer the Owl and Roth ones. The drippy monocle design is quite good, but I really don't like the colour scheme.

I think I'm leaning toward the owls.

Are there also Pink-free versions?

I was wondering the same, but I was a bit too embarrassed to ask.

Also, why is it called Drippy Monocle instead of Drippy Moustache?


Title: Re: TIGJam TIGShirts

I think the shirts should be limited to people who actually show up and people who can handle rockin' the pink.  :beer:

Whats so wrong with pink anyway?
Pink is awesome.


Title: Re: TIGJam TIGShirts
Post by: muku on September 11, 2008, 10:14:41 AM
Yes. Yes, it is. But limiting the shirts to people who live near enough or are rich enough to go to the Jam (who are having all the fun anyway) is not awesome :(


Title: Re: TIGJam TIGShirts
Post by: Powergloved Andy on September 11, 2008, 10:23:01 AM
I'd wear all of them. I love the last one. I'd sport one around anytime!

the thing with pink is that its for women and fags  :-X

It would be so cheap now to make a snide remark about you being from Texas, so, I won't. :P

I fall into the "crazy enough to spend the money that I don't really have so I can go" category.

I feel like that earns me a shirt.

It has to be said that wearing a TIGJam shirt when you didn't go to TIGJam doesn't make a load of sense.

Not everyone has any more money they don't really have left to spend.

If that makes any sense. ???

Yeah, I mean you're at least on the same continent, right? I'd have to fly around half the globe to get there, which isn't particularly realistic, even if I had the time.

Not that I wouldn't want to be there :(

Then you'd get TWO shirts.

I'd have to take 2 flights just to get outta the country and THEN go half the globe to NY, which, by the way, takes 15 hours and then take another flight to wherever the Jam is. I'm not even talking about the visa problems.
I think I'd deserve the whole stack of shirts.

You'd never have to buy clothes again. I think that might be worth it!

The votes are in.  Drippy Monocle and Owlz were both strong faves, so we decided to put them BOTH on a shirt!  Drippy was the TIGJam team's personal favorite, so we put it on the front, and the owl will accompany the logo (still WIP possibly) on the back.

So now the question is, are you ready to look as sexy as this man? :gentleman:

Yes.  Yes I am.

Does the shirt come with monocle, top hat, and moustache as well?  Or are they accessories?


Title: Re: TIGJam TIGShirts
Post by: Akhel on September 11, 2008, 05:06:47 PM
They're as much accessories as your arms and legs!


Title: Re: TIGJam TIGShirts
Post by: Corpus on September 11, 2008, 05:12:40 PM
I'm guessing the green looks different on your monitors.

On mine, it looks kinda buzzy next to the pink. It's slightly uncomfortable to look at.

Still, I have some T-shirts that I designed which feature green and pink, and they work pretty well, so with any luck it'll look good when printed.

These green and pink colors can only be the creation of a kid who grew up on NTSC TV.

Why specifically NTSC? What's the difference?

I don't know NTSC pictures always look green or pink to me. Also these are very muted colors.
