Threadless Contest Entry
Hey! One of my designs that I submitted to Threadless.com is up for voting. Please vote high and often ;)
UPDATE: The voting process is almost drawing to a close and reading and responding to comments has been a great experience. I also got a lot of support from friends and their response was both surprising and greatly appreciated. I'll include this update with a comment I left explaining myself to people who had left comments questioning the design...
These comments are great! I'm glad people seem to generally approve of it despite some possibilities for improvement. But being a trained graphic designer, I can explain all design decisions with good smelling BS... While the ice cubes, upon superficial observation, seem to merely interpret the popular 80's song "I Melt With You", you'll notice that they are joined only by their mutual suffering in the form of an ever growing puddle comprised of their temporary existence, yet they are happy. This moment in time captures the happiness true love feels despite a fate that surely has a Shakespearian ending. Their very bodies will be mixed and evaporated together, and like their love, represents the ethereal nature of us all.
