buckeyes Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 As you know I am a buckeyes fan but I do have a buddy who has walked-on the football team over at penn state. While talk to him this week I said good luck with USC and everything have fun in LA blah blah blah and I told him if PSU won that I'd make him a shirt to commemorate the victory. Well seeing as I had nothing better to do today I created a nice little shirt for him. I'm thinking about adding more such as logos to make it more verifiable as a Penn State shirt but I think people will get the point. I'm also trying to avoid any copyrighting infringements if by offchance I decided to sell them. Now granted these shirts are made for if they win, I am aware that I may jinx them by posting these on here but I do not really care seeing that I am a buckeyes fan. I am rooting for the big 10 however but I really liked this concept and i wanted to show it off.So these "We Run (insert city here)" shirts are becoming pretty popular in the hip-hop game so I decided to make a play on that. I found the logo that is used in the popular shirts, selected a font that I felt resembled Penn State and threw it all together. I also added a little rose in one of the kid's hand just as a plan on the Rose Bowl Here is my "non copy right infringed front"Here is the back. This is were I just kind of threw together your everyday championship celebration shirt but I feel like it came out very classy.Now if I could not have to worry about copy righting and what not I'd definetly use this as the front.If I decide not to sell them I'll probably use the we run sc one and throw a PSU logo on there somewhere. I'll show you when I update it. I'm thinking maybe this could turn into a concept series maybe though. Like if you're team wins a big game in a rivarly city or just wins a big bowl game I could make you're very own "We Run (insert city here)" signature maybe? I don't know what do you guys think? -The Few, The Proud, The Paint Users.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedy Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Wouldn't there be a problem with the school names on the back of the shirt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patsfan99 Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I'll tell you right now re: the back.... if you use the words penn state in blue on a white shirt, you're getting into trademark infringement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oddball Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 First of all, why would you make a shirt with a bunch of boys running with a flower. There are so many connotations that could be made with that. Why not wear that shirt in West Hollywood, you'll get a lot of action if you know what I mean. It just is a bad and I do mean a bad concept. It really looks like a bunch of sissies run from some 8th grade girl trying not to get their butts kicked!

aci Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 When I hear 'we run', I take it as meaning running scared, not anything good. It might be popular on the hip-hop scene, but the other 90% of the world is going to think anyone in that shirt is a wimp.

Milo Meningocele Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 are you saying its stupid as a concept or the way i used it in this concept, because im pretty sure its a big deal.I'm just saying the phrase is stupid, along with all the other silly self-importance and bravado that mainstream hip hop culture puts so much value in.
