Design By Humans, the hotter than hot design competition, have launched ‘Design For’, a new feature which I believe will be occurring monthly in which artists design tees based on a certain subject or theme for an entity such as a band, brand, or person. I’ve never heard of the band, but apparently Temposhark are the ‘next big thing’, so what the devil do I know. There is an inflated prize compared to usual, with the top prize being worth more than $1400 in cash and prizes, with several smaller prize packages coming beneath that.

Me, I wouldn’t wear anything that suggested I spend a lot of my money ‘helping to put girls through college’, but if you want to, knock yourself out. Crooked Monkey have not one but two designs celebrating Client #9.

Straight from their mailout:

Hi Everyone!

Earlier this week, during your most crucial purchasing moments of our Spring Cleaning sale, we experienced some serious down-time. The frustration that many of you experienced while trying to make purchases is unacceptable and we promise to never ever let this happen again forever ever.

To allow you to make the most of the sale, our friends at Rackspace (the folks that host Threadless) are sponsoring five thousand $5 coupons on orders of $50 or more. The first five thousand people to use the coupon code ‘spring08‘ during the Spring Cleaning sale will receive $5 off their order on top of the already discounted sale price. Time to go on a shopping spree!!!!

In addition to the $5 coupons and to make up for lost time, we are extending the Spring Cleaning sale until 11:59:59 CST on Wednesday, March 26th, 2008! The new shirts to be released on Monday will also be on sale!

If you are interested in all the geeky details of what went wrong, please join Harper Reed, our CTO, in a live discussion of your questions and concerns. To chat with Harper please visit threadless.com/springchat. Harper will be available to answer your questions from 12pm to 3pm CST on Monday, March 24th, 2008.

Again, we apologize for the unreliable shopping experience and hope that you enjoy the rest of the sale!

Sincerely
Jake Nickell
Founder, CEO

So I guess that explains why my order was processed and shipped in less than two days. I don’t know how quickly they’ll get through 5000 orders, and it seems like tempting fate for Rackspace to encourage everyone to rush to the site in the hope of using the coupon, so if you want $5 off then you’ll probably want to place your order sharpish even if it does mean wading through the cold-treacle like pace of their hammered servers.

Britain seems to have stopped working until Tuesday because of the Easter holidays, so instead of following my usual American schedule (you guys are working today, right?) I’m going step away from my laptop for a few days and enjoy some rest & relaxation.I’ll be popping in a few ‘Quicktees’ posts over the next few days so the blog won’t be totally dead though.

Brooklyn Industries are all aboard the sale train (mens/womens), but I’ve had a couple of coupon codes slid along to me to help sweeten the deals for you:

Save $10 on purchases of $75 or more. Enter coupon code: 75Spring08

Save $15 on purchases of $125 or more. Enter coupon code: 125Spring08

These offers will be valid until March 26th and have the usual T&Cs (one use per person, online only, BKI aren’t responsible for any Godzilla attacks resulting from coupon use, etc.).

Eggs-actly as the picture says, enter the coupon code eggsactlywhatiwant in the checkout at Lazy Oaf and you’ll get 20% off your order.

The coupon will work from right now until Monday 24th March at midnight, at which point the coupon code will turn back into a pumpkin.
