Hang Tags – 05.23.05

By Jason Cosper | Published May 23, 2005

What sort of shill would I be if I didn’t mention Threadless for the nth consecutive week? A pretty horrible one, to say the least. Well, it is worth mentioning that they’re selling every shirt in their store for $10 until June 6th. So really it’s less of me being a shill and more of [...]

What’s In Your Closet, Cory Doctorow?

By Jason Cosper | Published May 20, 2005

The Preshrunk staff [hearts] Cory Doctorow. His pimp for this site on BoingBoing – the first post of 2005, we might add – drove a huge spike of traffic our way in our first few days. As far as we’re concerned, he helped make us what we are today – and we’re extremely grateful for [...]

Powerlines

By Jason Cosper | Published May 19, 2005

If you’ve read the site long enough you’d know that I’m a sucker for nice, simple line art. But sometimes I tire of the calculated perfection of vectors in Illustrator files.

I’m Internet Famous

By Jason Cosper | Published May 17, 2005

It may not be able to get you into any of the hot eateries and nightclubs in a large metro area, but being internet famous rules. You have the relative privacy of an average Joe coupled with a devoted, cult-like following. Perfect strangers who will buy you beers and let you crash on their couch [...]

+ Hey, good news. Threadless did a reprint run on Flowers In The Attic. If you’re a J.Ko stalker, you could buy this and be one step closer to mimicking him completely. + The Yahoo! Buzz Index did a nice little piece on popular t-shirt searches. + Benkay from the Portland Metblog pinged us with [...]

Destroyer

By Jason Cosper | Published May 16, 2005

I feel mildly weird about running a shirt from one of our advertisers. But it’s not as if I’m actually getting money for running their ads or their shirts. I know the cat that runs Enclothe is just a starving student trying to make a little scratch, so I’m letting them run ads in exchange [...]

What’s In Your Closet, Drew?

By Jason Cosper | Published May 16, 2005

A perennial favorite around Preshrunk HQ is the web comic Toothpaste For Dinner. Drawn by a man known only to his fans as Drew, his acerbic wit and ammusing observations make for a great daily read. Drew and friends recently launced Sharing Machine, a distribution service for independent artists. With such clients as Mule Design [...]
