alternatives.




here are some other colors. the major one is black, the others are just some i thought looked good.


in the comments of the last post david brought up an interesting idea. why not use famous buildings to represent the different countries. (i.e. statue of liberty, that government building in Brasilia) but what about korea and canada? this building is apperantly something famous in korea. in canada, there is a famous lighthouse, right? i don't know how that all together would look. feedback = good.

God Bless.

i like the famous buildings idea. some other ideas for Brasil would be that cathedral in Brasília:

or the Cristo Redentor:

here's another shot of the Congresso, i think this is one of the more common angles (used for postcards and shirts and whatnot):

if you're gonna do buildings then maybe the capitol building would be better than the statue of liberty. but if you meant monuments then lady liberty is fine. i don't know what to do for Canada and Korea.... maybe a hockey rink or an ice cube for Canada, lol. you should ask Jill about what to use for Canada. but yeah, definitely like the buildings instead of flags idea.

i just realized the last sentence in my last comment may be taken the wrong way. i didn't mean i like the building idea better than the flag idea. i just meant i like the building idea also. just thought i'd clear that up.

by the way, i like the light blue better than the black for the flag shirt.

I feel so special!

He is using my idea :D:D

yes, indeed, it should work amazingly, if the shirt isnt a HUGE success, it is because you did it wrong :P

For korea, i guess the palace is the best idea, or just use their flag, until they get any internationally reknown building edifices. [sic]
