O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!
What momentous occasion furnishes my Jabberwock-ish delight, you ask? Well, let me tell you: Joe Infurnari’s wonderful design, Roboto Mori, (which was a Top 10 T-Shirt of 2007 for both me and John (and which you can read about in more detail here)) is up for competition at Threadless!
Unfortunately, perhaps my initial enthusiasm was a little premature. Because as much as I’d like to see it get printed at Threadless, there’s one teensy little problem: the design was already for sale on Bountee! You can’t buy the shirt at Bountee anymore—but as some Threadless commenters have mentioned, that might not be enough. This technicality might keep the design from getting printed, even if it gets a really high score. I don’t know Threadless’s exact policy on this, but it seems to me that those folks have enough submissions to choose from that they can afford to be a little particular about these sorts of things.
But hey, I figure it’s worth a shot, right? So if you want to help Mr. Infurnari out, head on over and show this design a little love.
Assuming that you have the love to give. If not, then you should, um, probably go to the store and… buy some more? Or something.

Thanks, Greg! You guys rule! I’m hoping it’s not going to be a problem, too. With the help of your readers, my odds are getting better. I had no idea that adapting a design for Threadless was going to be so frowned upon but live and learn. I’ll write a post about the top ten shirts thing, too. What an honor! All the best, Greg.

Definately an awesome design. If threadless decides not to print, they are missing out. Seems like you did everything you could.
