I voted 01 once again but please remove the Twoism logo on the sleeve because it's not fitting

Same here, if I remember rightly Frank mentioned that we can get rid of that logo...

My only problem with design 01 is that people are already selling the exact same shirt on eBay (well, not brown, but same silk-screened graphic). It isn't uniquely 'TwoisM' the way 02 is...

The setup of the ebay shirt is indeed the same, but the design and font is much better.

I agree. I want something unique like No.2.

I voted 8, but I'd be happy with 2 or 9 also.
Hey I have an idea guys; when this t-shirt run is over we should think up some ideas for an Autechre shirt. I think I can safely say most people here are pretty big AE fans, right? I've only seen the crappy ones on ebay that just say AE on the front. Some of the artwork from their albums/eps are incredible, and I'm sure you guys could think up some sick designs. ...Just a thought.

Yeah I can't decide either...I like em all. I also like Derail's idea for an autechre shirt. BTW, these will be free, right?

The reason I chose 02 was not only because it mentions our unique 'TwoisM' community, but it also doesn't overtly feel like an advertisement for the band...
If I was walking around with 'boards of canada' written on the front of my teeshirt I would just feel like a billboard for the band (not that I wouldn't do it for BoC). I feel that the graphic on 02 is <i>inspired</i> by BoC rather than advertising them. I like how esoteric it is in that regard. Plus all the quirky references (6010, etc.) that make it alluring and not totally offputting to those who aren't in the know...

I agree with you as well Goiter, although a band like BoC isn't that common. Most people will think you are under the spell of Canada

. Nevertheless a good statement.

No problem ofcourse.
About the same thing as the ebay shirt, well yeah that's true, But i like the typography way better on my version. And that logo with the house and the trees is just too sexy.

I cast my vote for number one when three designs were neck and neck at 29%. So if it stays that way you know who to blame. i justs luvs to stir it

I like the first design because it is clearly about the band and that is what i would like to show off. The maple leaf thingy is just too faded retro that every 20 yr old piss head student wears from major chain stores in ireland and the u.k. Although I take the point that the twosim community thing is important. How about moving it from the sleave to high on the back in discrete smallish font?

Its still numero 9 for me. Was one of the first designs to appear and the ones following have been great but still havent beaten it for me. Its a very strong one. I always find 'Simple but effective' . Best way.
