Well our fancy database/cart just broke… I’m currently on the phone with Scott. More information and groveling in a few minutes… 12:10am

UPDATE: 12:22am We’re going again in ~8minutes or so. That’s 12:30am CST. All the orders from that flip we just did will be canceled via Google. No one who ordered between 12:00 and 12:10 will be charged anything.

If you stick around and buy a shirt here in a few minutes use this coupon code: “BAD-CART-1110″ - 33% off purchase and shipping costs. (This coupon code is 1 per person and will expire in an hour.)

FINAL UPDATE: 1:44am Well, that was fun… (except that it wasn’t.)

We screwed up our normal changeover at midnight and had to cancel the 76 orders that came in for the same 2 shirts; “Intrusion” numbers one and two. By recovering quickly we managed a bit of a do-over at 12:30.

We ended up taking a $150+ hit on the coupon code, but that’s OK. Above all else, we always want to deliver a good experience to you, the users of the site. The overwhelming majority of our customers were very cool about it. Thanks so much for your understanding.

P.S. Scott, you owe me $150. So just, uh, subtract it from my Scott-doesn’t-actually-code-for-free tab.

“Intrusion” by Steven “SteveOramA” Wilson will be for sale on the home page starting at Midnight (US CST) November 9th.

“Hey, what’s your shirt mean?” “It means I believe that in our never ending quest for scientific achievement and exploration there’s a distinct possibility of finding something that wants to eat us.” “Wow, that’s cool, I’m really jealous.” “Yeah, you look really jealous.”

Since it’s getting a bit cooler outside ’round these parts, this is going to be our first long-sleeved t-shirt. It also has a placement low and to the right on the shirt. Here’s a quick mock:

Enjoy!

I’ve been experimenting with some type of art ever since I was a little kid.  Around 5 years old I grabbed a pencil and starting drawing anything I saw in my books.  I haven’t put down a pencil ever since.  Fast forward 10 years later and you’d see me practicing oil painting, wood carving, sculpting, photography, and graphic design.  In the past few years I taught myself web design and how to use design/editing programs.  It’s not until now that I’ve decided to share with the public what I’ve learned and designed.

We have another timely new design. It’s election season in the US and this one’s for all those people who dare to vote in the face of an antiquated electoral college system, voter-caging, and a company like Diebold (sinister or stupid?) at the helm in many states. This is for the people who think, “It’s my own spit in that ocean, dammit, and if you don’t vote, you don’t get to complain. I’m headed for the polls!”

“Hey, what’s your shirt mean?” “It means I participate in politics as a patriot and a citizen, but I’m under no illusions as to the nature of my role in this oligarchical state.” “Wow, that’s cool, I’m really jealous.” “Yeah, you look really jealous.”

“I Think I Voted” by 200nipples will be for sale on the home page starting at Midnight (US CST) October 26th. See you out there on election day!

If you need a screen printing fix, and who doesn’t? OMG Posters will rock your world. They’re a blog about hunting down and discussing the awesomest posters to be found online. Drool-worthy designs are posted and analyzed regularly.

Like these only-possible -to-describe-as-badass posters for The Shinning by Billy Perkins. They’re part of Austin’s Alamo Drafthouse’s dueling posters commission. They’re getting all kinds of killer art done up to promote special screenings and events. You can buy either copy of this beauty at Mondotees.com.

Cris.Howe.Designs was formed in the summer of 08, by two guys who stare aimlessly at band shirts all day and think up ideas for shirts.

We decided to turn that thought into reality, and we made a MySpace profile, and told maybe 10 people about it, and maybe 4 of those people were in bands. Out of just that little telling, we started getting friend requests daily, and messages asking for designs. We’ve designed for quite a few local bands, and we’re looking to only get bigger! We put a lot of time and effort into our designs, to not only satisfy the client, but to satisfy us. We feel like our job isn’t done until it’s liked by many people.

So far all the designs we’ve sold have been pretty big hits on shirts, and every band has been more than pleased with our work. Our designs are reasonably priced, and people have been coming back to us for more than one design so, check us out!

Cris.Howe.Designs will be bringing you our second Halloween t-shirt design that hits next week. It’s called “I Love You To Death” and it will be on the blog this Sunday, and will go on sale Monday, as usual. Don’t miss it.

P.S. That illustration will make so much sense once you see the design these guys, er, broke off for you.

Check it out! We’ve got a couple of monstrous tees for you guys this October and up first is Beware The Slime Monster by Matthew Skiff. Matthew’s kickass sense of negative space, which you can see plastered all over his website, really shines in this gooey creation. (Watch out for upside down smiley faces.)

Beware The Slime Monster will be for sale on the home page starting at Midnight (12:00am US CST) September 29th. Enjoy! (This also means it’s your last chance to score your one-of-a-kind print of Delayed Travels by Ben Chlapek. As always, when this one goes on sale, that one comes down.)
