Some of you may remember a couple months ago a thread in which you all helped me by translating a U2 phrase into english. Well... the guy who said he would do it just backed out. (!) So I'm in the process of getting a new artist (an old student of mine).

Just a friendly update to let you know your efforts will see a shirt some day!!! Hopefully before the New Year. :\

OK, this guy works a lot faster than the other, but you'll see it's pretty straightforward at the moment.

What I'd like from you all is input. Is it too simple? Is the font OK? Is it spelled correctly? Should it be rougher or do you like the "clean" of it now?

Any input is welcome!!!

It is here: http://swordandspirit.com/irish_shirt.pdf

It looks good. I prefer the long r if you can get it.
(like a lowercase r, but both ends drawn out)

r

I agree with Aonghus there. Other than that, it looks great.

BTW, Ríona, you ought to be able to download acrobat reader for free from http://www.adobe.com, for whatever your system is.

Love it!!!

But..I much prefer stuff on the back of a T-shirt rather than the front.

Let me know when it goes into final production. I'll buy the first one off the press!
