hehe... I've been given the job to design my class T-shirt last year... I wanted to show a theme that our class is the essense of our school, 'coz most of the co-curriculum presidents are in my class, but nobody accepted these designs...

I wonder is there anything I really need to improve, as a t-shirt design for my class? there must be a reason they rejected these, right? I have no idea why, thus I need your help to point it out...

U r a hardworking dude ~!.. All the designs got its own meaningful situation.

somehow, as a "memorial" design. The one wif Classmates names will be a Good to wear forever.

Try to include every clasmates name or their nick should be interesting.

nice works here!

as what dinodog_Jr, try to insert your classmates' names; especially this one:

replace those languages with names... that's a beauty..

hehe... thanks all...
at last our final decision is same as what you suggested,
a lot of names spreaded on the t-shirt...
but the final design was not done by me...

as for the text.. i think u can try to imitate Matrix effects.. It might looks cool though.

U know some text's tail will fade out..

hmmm... to make matrix texts you have to use either transparency or gradient... both of them are not recommended for T-shirt printing, 'coz if you want a good price, the quality will be very low, if you want a good quality, it's costly...

You use Photoshop to do these? How you do the circular words?

Btw nice work for all the shirt, i like the circular one.

no offence, but your shirts lack a sense of style or appeal.

I mean they are just designs, but you need to ask yourself if its wearable or not?

You need to play with typography and space alot more and you have to imagine whether people can wear this outside of school also.

Do some sketches is most advisable then show your class or people here at lowyat, that way you dont waste too much time designing and getting rejected.

I'd have prefered the cutout type design..

I think the presidents or community are just being picky.. after all, students normally want something cooler and more to their trendy age nowadays.
