What is the American Pig Challenge? It is a contest that American Pig is running to see who can come up with the best t-shirt design. When it comes to designer clothing submissions this is a place where you as a designer can voice your opinion and even submit your own work at a chance of winning $250! If you are an opinionated person you have the option of writing comments about other peoples designs and voting for which design you think is the best.

I like that they show how many votes each design currently has. As shown in the picture below. If you look closely you can see which design has the most votes and which designs are close runners up for being chosen. I think it is a great way to bring people together in an online community and also inspire clothing designers to show case there work.

If you are a clothing designer and you have a clever idea that you think is good enough to win the American Pig Challenge, I suggest you submit your work and have the chance to walk away with an extra $250. This could be a great start to getting your creativity out there and showing the community your talents!

Troy and I started working together a few months ago. He is an amzing artist and I can’t wait to work with him more. Check out some of new and archived work on his new website.

Once again we used Drupal as the backend Content Management System which is quickly becoming our CMS of choice. He has complete control over the website from navigation to blog updates. If you ever need some graphic design work done for a youth oriented product line - he is your man!

This gig at Ambiguous Clothing is HOT Corey - congratulations - you deserve it. We loved your show last week at Backspace. We saw some of your new gear at the mall the other day and decided to co spy hunter with our iPhone.

Here is what we saw:

The king of waterskiing is back on the road promoting his tour sponsored by MasterCraft. Jet fueld with Red Bulls and a truck the size of most homes in SE, Marcus and his crew are destined to have a great time andspread the good vibes across the US and Canada. You can check out the tour stops here with interactive Google Map.

The Face To Face tour will be the first of its kind in water skiing. For three months, beginning May 2008, Marcus and his crew will travel coast to coast in a custom Peterbuilt towing a 40th Anniversary MasterCraft boat. The tour will offer top notch water ski clinics, training programs, free ski days with a Pro, charity benefit days, public outreach days, celebrity appearances, gear demos, autographed posters, magazines, DVDs, film premieres and more. The tour will hit up four pro events throughout the summer and will travel over 12,000 miles bringing extreme slalom to the masses, on the lakes, rivers and swamps of the United States. Make sure you poke around the site, click the “Tour” link for specific dates and locations, and don’t miss a chance to catch the Tour this summer!
