Werewolf parody tee

I guess with the new Benicio Del Toro werewolf movie coming up and Taylor Lautner of course I am guessing we will see  a pack of werewolf t-shirts coming out, full moon or not. But for someone like me, your favorite werewolf is probably the the Michael J. Fox high school coming of age basketball hero comedy from the eighties. And while this t-shirt is inspired by an even older werewolf movie called the Curse of the Werewolf it pays homage to Teen Wolf. Nice lines, nice color and great tattooed model from laFraise.

47 Online Ongoing T-Shirt Contests

   South African based contest. Don’t expect to get paid soon. It is about one and a half years since I got runners up there and still haven’t seen a dollar which is probably about all I earned as the runners up prizes were probably the worst prizes ever for a tee contest. A few days ago I received an email saying that they are finally going to pay the winners but I’ll believe it when I see it. My advice: avoid this contest.

    Brazil based website in Portuguese.

    Prize: R$800 in cash, R$800 in store credit

36. BlackEyedT.com
    Don’t know how trustworthy this site is. The fact that it is full of comment spam makes me think that it isn’t being maintained. Last update to their blog was in October and that was a cry for help. The tees are not the best designs I have seen so I am not all that surprised they are struggling.

    Prize: $500 cash + $100 store credit

37. Is This Chicken?
    Netherlands based contest wins prize for most creative name.

    Two guys got together to set up this contest site that favored graphic tees. Didn’t go so well and they tried to branch out into another business but it looks like they are coming back.

    Prize: Looks like it will be on a per shirt basis.
    How often? No idea.

39. itself
    Turkey based tee contest burst onto the scene about two years ago with a $4000 prize. Selected just a few tees and then no activity. While they appear to be accepting designs and if you dig around you can find a voting area I suspect there is no longer a contest. The last submission was in July. The last tee was chosen about a year ago.
40. Wooshka
    Australian based site. No recent activity. I imagine it will just disappear one day.
41. Milk Shop Gang
    Australian site with interesting site design. I have never seen any activity on this site.
42. Righteous Enterprise
    Disappeared
43. ice cream t-shirts
    Say they’ll be right back but they’ve been saying that for a bit.
44. Tasty Threads
    Never made it out of the gate.
45. Teeple
    Japanese t-shirt contest. Shut down recently.
46. tFuse
    Had a short run and then seemed to disappear. It is now a “Reported Attack Site”.
47. Caponocca
    So little activity on this site too I am going to assume it has gone under.

#########################################

Note: These are all just websites that I have come across over the last while or so. I didn’t search the web for t-shirt contests so I am sure there are some that I have missed. On top of that I am sure I have made some mistakes in the details. These things happen.

If you know of any other t-shirt contest sites or can see some mistakes I have made please leave a comment below and I will do my best to rectify the situation.

Very Creative Design at LaFraise

This design is awesome. The style is very typical of laFraise but designer Cib has really done well with this one. Great concept, great execution. Check out the design closeup below.

Geek Vision for Sale

laFraise are selling a select number of their tees for €11 including this fun design by Ted Boundy. The problem is though, they don’t make it very easy to see which tees are €11. Still good price and good tees.

You Love T-Shirt

Why do people become obsessed with t-shirts. Perhaps we were put into a trance and hypnotized. I think that is the concept of this tee from laFraise.

Love is in the air at Camiseteria

I don’t think I have ever mentioned this site before but they do have some great t-shirts. Based in Brazil, Camiseteria is a Threadless clone ie. t-shirt contest site. A lot of the designers you will probably be familiar with from sites such as Threadless. The one problem with the site is that it is in Portuguese which might be trouble for most of the world but I find that Google translate helps me navigate it pretty easily. Anyway, I came across this cute tee this morning and thought I would share it.

Another thing to note about the Camiseteria is all the cute girls that model the tshirts. Wow! It’s called “Cão Voador (o amor está no ar)” which Google translated as “Flying Dog (love is in the air)” and was designed by Egon Zakuska.

€15,000 T-Shirt at LaFraise

OK, so the t-shirt doesn’t cost €15,000 but that is how much the designer got paid for the design. It was one of the biggest prizes ever awarded at a t-shirt design contest as far as I know. You can see a closeup of the design in previous post where I told you about the winner.

It’s a very cute but very feminine design by piu-piu.

All we need is a hoodie

Winter’s a comin’ in many parts of the world so you are going to see more and more hoodies and this is a pretty sweet one from laFraise. It would be nice to see this design on a tshirt too but what are you gonna do. Still at €39 it is a pretty good deal.

10 Alternative Mickey Mouse T-Shirts

It took me a while to collect all these Mickey Mouse t-shirts, so long in fact that by the time I get around to posting them some of them are no longer for sale. Anyway, there are still quite a few Mickey Mouse t-shirts that we can actually get excited about.

1. Bukowski at T-Post – OK, so this tee is no longer for sale but I think it is the perfect start to a list of alternative Mickey Mouse T-Shirts.

2. Cute Killer by Gprod at laFraise – Mickey and a few other cute characters get what some may say was coming to them.

3. Crossbones at Badstarz – Well, Mickey is surely no stranger to pirates.

4. AV Mouse at Springleap – As much as I dislike the folks at Springleap I have to admit that this is one of the best alternative Mickey Mouse tees I have ever seen.

5. Mouse at Disturbia – Disturbia just loves Mickey Mouse. This one is a pretty disturbing image in a totally cool way.

6. Mickey at Disturbia – Walt Disney –> Want Disturbia…get it?

7. Fallout at Disturbia – He’s barely recognizable but Mickey is in there.

8. Playmouse at Yes No Maybe – I don’t know how this could happen but…

9. Micky Freak at Coontak – The things people do to poor Mickey Mouse.

10. The Real Mouse Tee at Another Enemy – Mickey has an evil side.

You can also get some pretty awesome officially sanctioned Mickey Mouse tees in the Bloc28 Series. Check out Addict.co.uk.

I’m a nerd

This new tee from laFraise and is great for all of you are not ashamed of your nerdness (your nerdity?). Notice I said ‘your’?
