Lots of t-shirt controversy this week. First the F*CK Vogue tee, now it’s Lance Armstrong calling bullshit on an Outside Magazine cover. Apparently Lance’s tee was originally blank, but Outside took it upon themselves to Photoshop (and skillfully we might add) the words 38. BFD. onto the shirt.

So it would seems designer Leon Verres isn’t going to be in Vogue or lunching with Anna Wintour anytime soon. Wow. I’m not going to pretend to have any real insight into the beef with Vogue, but you can read it up on The Huffington Post if you’re so inclined. There’s a statement by Leon too where he refers to Wintour as ‘Stalin on stilettos’. Zinnnggg.

Hello to all the new members of our social network over at Ning. Thanks for posting. Here’s a shoot clip from ArtistiCreation. (Nice job building out your profile.)
Quick thanks to the folks who have been filling out Social space with new material. Lots of new photos here. Please read up on our latest members here. While you’re at it, join and post your own.
Quick post to let our regular readers know that we’re still alive. I feel like I do this every third post these days, but we’re just back logged and busy. So couple quick things. Big thanks to all the shops that email us links, news, and coupon. MUCH appreciated, keep them coming. We promise to post them all up.
Second, in the meantime we invite you to take part in a little DIY marketing. PLEASE consider joining the social network we’ve set up. Whether you’re a shop owner, or an enthusiast, you can post up your own videos, pictures and promotional news. Go here and have at it.
You’ll see we’ve got a couple of widgets in our sidebar to encourage readers to head over there as well. We just added a news feed of what’s happening on the social net. So anything you guys take the time to post up will appear throughout the mainsite. More to come. Promise.
The one-and-only T-Shirt Hell is shutting down. The news actually made Consumerist.com, where you ran read the complete ranting explanation. If you’re into offending just about every man, women, child or animal I believe you can still buy up until Feb. 10th.
Krudmart.com has relaunched their site with a new, and distinctly non-cruddy design. Looks sharp. And they’ve picked up an distribution deal with FUCT.
Word to all our regular, shop-owning, creative-minded readers – I’ve finally gotten around to starting a social network over at Ning. It’s been on the to-do list for a while. I thought it’d be a good place to exchange ideas and mingle (virtually) with other designers and shop keepers. At the very least, a good way to build awareness for your shop and/or talent. Please join in with some of our early adopters like Use Small Words and United Five. As things get rolling I plan on publishing a feed of activity here in the main site.
