So, I found this website where artists can upload their designs and they take care of sales, printing, and shipping, while the artist makes some money and still retains the copyright on their artwork. Pretty cool, hu?

Anyway, I'm trying to come up with some ideas to put up and I wanted to see what people thought. They're still works-in-progress, but let me know what you think. Disregard any turtles in the background. I just threw a watermark on some of the stuff.

This one's just kind of a cool design I've played around with for a while. I actually won a prize in a contest that Coke put on with a similar concept when I was in high school.

This one is a Game of Thrones/Song of Ice and Fire design. Fans my recognize the phrase. My original idea was much more in depth, and would have had a lot of detail, with 3Dish blood, and a full sword complete with hilt. The size restriction I'm working with would have made the words much too small if I did the full sword, so I cropped it to just the bloody bit. I still might try to add some bas relief, or something, but there's something appealing to me about the simplicity of a one color design (the grey is just a placeholder for transparency). I'm having some trouble with some of the detail on the blade, though. I tried to show the little channel thing (I don't know what it's called), but I can't seem to get it to read right. Out of these, which one looks the best?

Here's another Game of Thrones one. This ones going to be the three headed dragon of the Targaryen shield. This one's still in the early stages.

Tell me if you get the reference on this one. So far, I haven't had much luck with the people I've showed it to.
It's a South Park reference.
I'm trying to do something that looks like some random event t-shirt, but when a fan looks closely, and reads everything, they get the reference. I think I'm still going to add some of the other text into the design with the logo, but I'm not quite sure how.

So, what do you think? Anyone have any other ideas? (If you don't want to go on the website and sell it yourself.

Response- Perhaps make some of the letters look like a shape of beans - a sillohette of a person with a radio as a head, inlude a slogan like "the other "White Meat" or have the Passages have a Large First letter - obviously spelling out "Ezekiel 5:10" or have that as a "presented to you by The Makers of Ezekiel 5:10" which is rather apropriate to the chili - con - carnival

Or "Just like Your parents put their ALL into this chili" or "Even Pygmies Give this chili a THUMBS UP!"
or "WE the Chefs COOOKED all day and night, Just like YOUR grand PARENTS,used to make it"

Making sure of course those 4 words Are In CAPS
