"For many people a t-shirt is more than just a casual every day garment. The t-shirt you pull over your head says a lot about you; the things you connect with bands, musicians and sports teams you support, your social interests and politics."
One of the things I love the most about technology is that it is constantly providing creative opportunities for people like me. After bouncing around Artist Shops, I was inspired, and it took me to a place I love to play.
(OH NOOOOOO! Frank's going on a ramble...
Quick! CLICK HERE, go to the Last Door On The Left and avoid all of these extra words. What's that acrynm for too long to read? Oh yea, TL;DR.)
TL;DR. In my past (early 90's), I was employed as a commissioned Sales Rep at Emerald City Sales. I represented more than four dozen lines of music and pop culture related manufacturers for a variety of licensed merchandise: t-shirts, posters, hats, calendars and related dry goods. I've seen hundreds of thousands of graphics and sold thousands of t-shirts all over the world.
(I Warned You... Seriously, open the Last Door On The Left and come inside.)
Personally, I have easily cycled through at least 1,000 t-shirts in my lifetime. And, designed several for crews and production teams on various projects through the years.
I believe that a t-shirt has the power to turn any person into a human billboard. Some people prefer to be Branded while others, more independently minded, avoid those images like a plague. The latter, my peps.
As a late 70's early 80's punk rock guy with green hair, your t-shirt (and hair cut/color) was one of the best ways to find your tribe. Still is."

DEEP THOUGHTS FROM A T-SHIRT GUY
Real "T-shirt Connoisseurs" know that a T-shirt can turn anyone into a mobile billboard for their cause, whatever that may be. Some people prefer to be branded with corporate logos while others show their independence by avoiding those images like a plague, these are my people." When asked about his graphic concepts, Harlan explains Last Door On The Left graphic this way, "Look, all I can say is during my life's eclectic evolution I've literally seen hundreds of thousands of T-shirts with graphics on them -- some good, some bad. Personally, I'm not a fan of cute. definitely not a fan of punny. In general, I prefer to be misunderstood. That's why the visual concepts in my gallery of LDOTL graphics unquestionably manipulate the observer, celebrate alternative lifestyles, and exploit fonts." Anyone, of any gender, knows that a T-shirt is a lot more than just a trendy everyday garment. For most, it is an outward expression of your inner self (or something like that. Right? For others, depending on your preferred fit, it's like a second skin.Everyone knows, by now, that the T-shirt one pulls over their head says a lot about them and the things they advocate for -- like bands and musicians, sense of humor, level of intellect, social interests, lifestyle, hobbies and politics. Even without words, a graphic on a T-shirt can connect you to your tribe, or get you invited into a new one."

In the past creating and printing t-shirts as a side project or small business was never a cost-effective proposition because it required one to invest up front, hold a lot of back stock and have a big enough line of products to engage the public’s interest over and over again for an extended period of time. A seriously challenging proposition. Plus, all those other details like demographics and hoping the right people came along and love it enough to shell out a few bucks to get one.
Now. Finally, I have my weird little t-shirt shoppe.
