Made an AWESOME SHIRT!

aSnakeLovinBabe · 04-19-2008, 07:46 PM

So, I was looking over my vast collection of pictures last night, and being an artist I realized something... hey, that snake makes an "s"... and hey.. part of that one made an "e"... and oh look! if we turn him just a little this one will make an "n"! So then i thought to myself well wouldnt it be cool if i could make a shirt that says I LOVE SNAKES... in snakes? So I began my 2 day ordeal of painstakingly selecting the best pictures of my own snakes to make letters. The biggest pain in the butt was "K" and finally i said to myself shannon youve been looking and turning pictures every which way for 2 hours there is no K anywhere! so two snakes suffice. After I had all of the selected pictures I decided I wanted the snake's head on every letter, so I had to re-select new pictures for about half of them. and so... after MUCH scrutinizing, rearranging, cropping, copying, pasting, coloring everything around each snake solid black...and even chopping off the head of tightie whitie and photoshopping it onto the middle of her body to make a second "e".... I present to you... my new t-shirt!! I have already ordered it on cafepress.com ( its a black ladies v-neck with a nice slim fit just for me)

Sorry but I took measures to make sure that the image is not pirated by outsiders. Those white lines are not normally there.

It got me thinking though, do you guys think this is a marketable idea? I was thinking about selling a few through cafepress but I am not sure if others would be interested or not... or maybe I could make more letters and have like a whole alphabet or something... and if people requested I could add their snakes on it too? i don't really know I am just happy to have a new shirt with all my OWN snakes on it

thanks for looking at another one of my weird quirky ideas

Shannon, I love it!!!

I want one just like yours...........I'd be willing to buy them if you could make up more.
Hmmm.........maybe we should put you in charge of the Thamnophis.com T-shirt project.
