ftninja Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Especially with Billy Mays on it. I thought that was Steveo. But hey, Billy Mays works too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinewav Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 I'll probably wind up buying both just to support the site, but I can't say I'm a huge fan of either design. Parodies of university shirts are painfully cliché at this point. I totally agree with Jillian's comment on page 1. Doesn't do much to spread the word. Just feels like an in-joke (not to say that I wouldn't buy a Nice Work Guy coffee mug or a $350 Hat, provided it was actually cheaper than $350.) The instrument one is better about spreading the word, but the design feels... uninspired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Strader Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Would you buy this OCR Shirt? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Level 99 Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Would you buy this OCR Shirt? Nope! Also, just showing off, we had prototypes of the proposed OverClocked University shirt on at MAGFest, check it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambo Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 I greatly prefer the design and aesthetics of the University one, but I agree that to most people it will be misleading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dj Mokram Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Also, just showing off, we had prototypes of the proposed OverClocked University shirt on at MAGFest, check it out. Out of curiosity: is the word being covered by your left arm 'University' or 'Remix'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RealFolkBlues Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I said this in staff chat, but I'll throw this out there publicly as well:The university design isn't my favorite, because even though it's tongue-in-cheek, most people wouldn't know that. I don't think it serves a practical purpose... Instead of spreading the word about OCR and what we do, it just winds up feeling like an in-joke. I'd rather wear something that actually promotes the community and feels 'inviting' to outsiders. Why would we want people to mistake OCR for some preppy college? Anywho, another thought I wanted to throw out there... Maybe it would be cool to have a version with the original OCR logo on the front, and the instruments on the back? ^-^ This is a pretty good argument. I like the aesthetics of the university shirt better but yeah, it could just be written off as another ironic t-shirt. A possible counterpoint to Jillian's (what happened to PixieTricks?) argument is that the shirt still prominently displays OCR's great logo, which has drawn a lot of interest from my OCR schwag over the years. Pound for pound, I think I would buy them both. That way I would have bought all the various OCR shirts that were available through the years.

Matt E. Waldman Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Also, just showing off, we had prototypes of the proposed OverClocked University shirt on at MAGFest, check it out. I'm STILL a huge sucker for the design of this shirt(NOT digging the yellow color, though). It seems both designs are pretty close in votes.

Dj Mokram Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 If you're ever open to suggestions, here's my 2 cents: Gotta say that I like the suggestion avaris and Dj Mokram have gone with for the University shirt. Very nice! Well played. The revised designs are much more appealing. I like. Ok I want to change my vote to both of these. Same here! Muuuuuch better designs now. I'd buy both. Can I vote for these two instead? I like them both a lot better. Mokram wins. I vote for the revised two. The revised black one is excellent. yup, I agree--I like the revised versions of BOTH shirts better than the originals. Nice one, mokram. Ditto 10char Another vote for DJ Mokram's revisions. Excellent editing! Dropping by with my thumbs-up for Mokram's mockups. I do like Mokram's black tee design I really love Dj Mokram's t-shirts! I'd buy BOTH! I just saw DJM's edited shirts. I like those too. So, out of curiosity (again), did this outpour of positive feedback had an impact on the final design? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
