Yes – absolutely correct. Hi, everyone!

Nice read. Great designer.
I kind of like the idea of a limited edition (from the images, it seems .net had a limited batch of 100). Maybe we’ll borrow that idea in the future. Products (in this case a particular design) tend to be valued more by people when they know they’ve got one of the only few available.
This would make a great design contest initiative too. Maybe for a magazine tee…

I like the toned-down work on the hammer and chisel here (compliments of txp:fr)…

The hammer and chisel still reminder me of “The People’s Democratic Republic of Textpattern” :-) but I think the idea of a smaller sticker would be great. Or a temporary tattoo maybe?

Here’s an opportunity lost. (Imagine this one, for example, having been Txp.) The kinds of things we should all look for in the future.

- Halftone filtering a perfectly good vector logo
- Angling it 8 degrees
- superimposing an artsy swash of yellow
- then adding a tagline about simplicity and elegance
…is a bit ironic, no?
+1 for the bloke approach. I want mrdale on a black t-shirt with the peoples republic of textpattern (basic logo) on the back. That looks all kinds of badass and at my age every bit helps.

I’d buy a Mr. Dale dartboard. :)
Seriously, though, in case it wasn’t clear, that’s not my design work, and I wasn’t suggesting the whole design for a t-shirt. I merely pointed out I liked the “half-toned” hammer and chisel. Nothing more, nothing less.

And I’m totally crackin’ up about that, because it’s so true!

+1. Though I’m skeptical about democracy anymore. What about just The People’s Republic of Textpattern? I think a new world order is in order.
