First off, t-shirts are hard to sell on any website. If you want to get a realistic look at the current t-shirt market, check out www.threadless.com. Only the hottest and best get printed there and not a single one advertises anything.

That being said, I don't like the design much. It's just not my personal style. I'm into t-shirts as tools for communication, not advertising. I think a simple joystick right smack in the middle would attract more buyers than all that text.

Really? I am not really interested in selling stuff(although it'd be nice) It is more for giving them too a couple friends and we just waer them to advertise the site and get more visits...Thanks for the tip!

I will probably make a second one seeing as how most of threadless's stuff is kinda vector/retro stuff...

Yeah. Only a image centered on the front, for example the joystick. And a small fontpx arial/verdana #000000 text behind that contains URL for your web-site.

That'd probably be cheaper too...OK...So something simple and vectorish with just my site name...

i'd go for the simple idea of putting the joystick in the middle to. or maybe just plain on front and the joystick, a little tilted, on the right back shoulder (with the web adress in a simple font - like verdana like someone suggested). get me?

LIke has already been said, simplicity rules, too many elements end up competing with each other for visual attention and they all end up suffering because of it.
