Hi everyone... I'm doing a little favor for my younger brother and I was wondering if you guys could help me out. He's in leadership for his high school and apparently his homecoming theme got changed just today from James Bond to Pirates of the Caribbean. It's funny, the cheerleading team just got finished with their James Bond routine. ;D Anywho, I was wondering if you guys had any cool ideas as to what a shirt would look like. It's his senior year, so I suppose he's gotta go out with a bang. I remember my homecoming shirts were so ugly, but I bought them anyways.  So if you had a cool image of a skull, crossbones, swords, silouettes of the characters (keep everything graphical would be cool)... it was would be awesome! Thanks for your help!!  |

I have no skills in graphic designing whatsoever. I'm terribly sorry. I guess I could offer some suggestions.... when I think of one! What about the Pirates 3 poster?

Yeah, that poster would definitely help. I'm trying to use original designs, so any type of idea would be cool... I'd just end up deriving graphics from them, most likely.

They have computer backgrounds and some of them are mixes of Jack, Will, Elizabeth, and Barbossa. They might have some for Dead Man's Chest now. They look cool.

Argh... thanks for the link Reens, but I can't seem to get onto that site. Must I have a yahoo account in order for it to work? I would love to get some brushes. My email addess is jng@calpoly.edu.
My friend gave me some ideas of using filigre (sp?), like curly cues and what not... along the lines of what the shirts have out right now.

Okay, here's my first pass.... tell me what you think.... Good, bad, doesn't make sense, anything. The main colors are gold and red. The shirt is black.  |

You can't see it? Oh my. I can see it perfectly clear. Well... that completely defeats the purpose of why I posted this thread. Argh. How annoying. I tried giving a link to a website for someone to look at it, but that didn't work either. Dang. Try reloading the page maybe.  |

Thanks! Actually, I saved this one as a jpeg in illustrator and then uploaded it in ophoto and then into photobucket. I don't even know why I had to go through all of that... I'm sure there was an easier way.

Your brother better like it because you went through all of trouble just for him. And to show us! It's very lovely. I know I'd wear it!

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, I know. I'm such a great sister. ;D I really hope it goes through. The process is in its early stages.... my brother wants to do the silouette of Jack on the back of the shirt, but I'll wait out till the front of the shirt gets approved.
That's alright Reens... I actually took some sample filigree on a website, changed it up a bit on photoshop and then duplicated it on illustrator. It was a lot of work, but I really like how it came out. I'm not really sure if the gradation will be able to be printed, so it may look different. Does anyone know if silk screen printed shirts can do that?

Update time!! It's been a while since I've posted in this thread, but here it is. I believe it's been tweaked a bit even from this by my brother, but I think my design is going to be the one seen on 300 people. Now that would be a sweet sight. Let me know if y'all can't see it.  Oh and the shirt on the right side is actually the back of the shirt. I'm not sure if that'll be on the final. We'll see.... |
