yep 003 is nice — straight n

tiffany which tee do you mean? 3 or 8?

29.016 & 17
Very pretty shirts that I’d wear but not vote for becuse they are short on concept.

29.013
Is a gem of an concept. Just short on execution

Exactly.
The ideal shirt would say a lot more than “look at me”.

coupla unanswered questions…

29.001 — is that keyboard vector?

29.002 — the caveman and the cross…they are connected.
is there a religious connection? Are we the cave people?

29.013…the guy had kerning in the back of his mind (see picture), but
in all his coffee-fueled creativity, he forgot about it.
spatial (spacial?) awareness?

can you zoom 29.017, please?

bj

are there more coming? I want to post a Top 3
but don’t know if there are more…

I believe that religious monkey man has helvetica on his head rather than a cross.

39…(2nd alt) I think one of the best
and most “complete” (concept, aesthetic,
description of “typophile”-somehting that
is absent or given poorly from the most works ).

I admit it with “heavy heart”…since it is
not among the ones i sent, but also i feel
satisfaction that i had such a competitor.

congratulations!

whoa 29.022 didn’t see the printable area eh

I would wear 043 and 046, but not pay money for them.

I agree with Christos. That is a nice idea. The execution
again is not what I would choose. Golly, I must sound like a
broken record.

Maybe just the one color wireframe T on the font. On the
back the wire frame of typophile. “Perspectives on Type &
Typography” All scaled and balanced.

Also I don’t like black t-shirts :-(
I look aweful in them and i feel like a roadie.

39.040

Not unlike last year’s 38.020.

On 39 alt. It does say the most about typofile, and is in that sense most complete, as Christos has pointed out.

But completeness is not always an aesthetic virtue. In drama one of the ways that dialogue fails is being “on the nose”:
it says exactly what the character is thinking, which people rarely do in life.

I think 39 is too ‘on the nose’. Also the multiple perspective ‘T’ is awkward looking.

In the context of a ‘T’ it seems to me that being visually exciting and causing the viewer to ask ‘What’s that about?’ is preferable.

Hmm…now i checked submissions from last year
i noticed that 38.017 has been send
this year also!

I don’t know if is the same person who sent it,
but if he/she is…reminds me a friend of mine
who plays in lotto always the same numbers.

hmm I’m confused. what does habitat have to do with typophile?

0.43/0.44 are sweet, has a good concept with the “i kern therefore i am” on the back.

Yeah. 003 is very nice. What if the missing teeth were black?? I’d definitely wear this one.

I too love #008. However I like the missing teeth being
yellow, only because the “T” is a second read — it takes a
second to catch it, and I like that.

yeah, the “t” in the image looks like a cross at first- I think this image would need to explore a new “t” if it were selected.

I like 003.
