Instead of the usual Friday Animation, today we want to give you an update on the 'Out and About' Tees.
The printers have been very busy and the shirts will hit the store next week. I have made frequent trips to the printers and have watched how, one by one,  your cool designs materialize on the fabric. I have to say it is a process that I love watching time and time again! The designs are looking very cool and we can't wait to present them to you in the store!!

So, keep your eyes peeled to the page :)

The guys at Staynice.nl are soon launching Sweatshop, a graphic design exhibition which specializes on graphic design on T-Shirts. We sent them a copy of all our designs and they will be exhibited, along with shirt designers from all over the world, in Breda (Holland) from May 23rd until June 29th.
I went there myself to hand-deliver our shirts, and the location as well as the exhibition design is very cool indeed :) Well done, guys!

So, if you are in Holland during that time, go and check it out!! I'm sure it will be great fun and a cool display of amazing shirts from around the globe!

We read and argued your wonderful comments and the winner is: hworks

with the comment:

'patterns are the strangest things. i pick up my bicycle in the morning, the 5am breeze brushes over my shoulder, the quiet drone of the bicycle chain announces the awakening of daily sounds, the colours of the bangalore sky rush to greet the sun and i smell the moist morning leaves.. and then, suddenly yet creepily at times, i realise i am a minute yet necessary thread of a very large fabric, a pattern larger than life. without me, the pattern is incomplete, and without the pattern, i am nothing. i am within what i am.'

Congratulations :)

Thank you all for submitting great comments and we hope to do another Mini Contest very soon so stay tuned!

The submission time for "Out and About" competition has just ended and there are only few hours left to score designs on Allmightys.

Thank you all for submitting these wonderful designs!  We've received a great response and it's exciting to see so different takes there are on the theme. It will be interesting to see how you like the designs once we go through all the votes.  Not an easy task but never the less an interesting one as we will be seeing what you liked and what you dissed. We will also speak to our friends at Popdeck.com to see how the  designs rated on their site and together decide what is the best design that works both on a board and tee.

So, if you haven't voted yet, now is the time!
SCORE DESIGNS ALLMIGHTYS!

On Monday, we will be announcing the winners and chosen designs for this competition. Please bear with us, a lot to go through. The results will include:

We have made few tweaks to the site in the last few days which some of you may have noticed. Among the changes is the way the Member Pages are listed. Now you can see members by the latest registration date rather than alphabetically. Another quite major addition is in the shop checkout. You will now notice a postage option for registered postage. Since the beginning of allmightys we always tried to make tv postage as cheap as possible. Recently we've had few problems with some of our packages so now we have trackable postage as an option which is set as a default. Its a little more expensive but way worth it if you are ordering 2 or more tees. Of course if you order 4 or more tees this comes included.
There have also been few other tweaks not worth mentioning that are generally to do with backend management and general system optimisation.

Deadline for submissions and voting is approaching fast. There is now only 2 or so days left to submit and vote so make sure that you cast your votes in time. Votes have been coming in on both Popdeck and Allmightys and it will be interesting to see what happens at the end. Don't forget to get all your friends to vote too but please ask them to objective and score other designs too so we can a good overall picture of what you liked most.

So, until Friday, keep submitting, voting and of course keep shopping!!! :)

Just a quick note to let you know that Allmightys has it's own page on Facebook. So, if you are a fan of Facebook or just addicted to it and spend too much time spying on your friends' friends then make sure you join up and say hello. Its a small but growing community of facebook tee addicts!

Join Up! Allmightys on Facebook

As we have been keeping up our blog of all things well designed and colourful for over a year now, we thought it's time to show you the reality behind the concept of blogging. Working 24/7 to feed our readers with the latest gadgets, features, technological bits and art & design, it looks pretty much like the scene behind the white door in this little fun movie ;)

watch it here for a humorous start into the week...

There are now only few days left to submit your designs for our current "Out and About" competition. The response has been good and, as always, its great to see such diverse response to the theme. Yes, its true, we have gone a little easier on what's related to theme but we love the mix of designs you have submitted. This competition, as you know, is being done in association with Popdeck.com so make sure you submit your designs to both sites to qualify for gold prize. Also don't forget to vote on both sites because we will be looking at both scores for the gold prize. Only one design will be printed on a skateboard deck and it will be exciting to see which design you have liked most. You can get all the templates here and here.

If you haven't voted yet, the submissions are waiting for your votes so sure you visit the voting galleries and tell us how much you like them.

As always, if there are any new features you would like to see on the site or have some suggestions for our future competition themes ..then please let us know. You can use our online form or send an email to us directly at more[at]allmightys.com.Have a great weekend all!!
