WFMU Listener Art
A few months ago, WFMU was lost in a dark wooded forest of creative blockage, with nary a flashlight or compass to guide us back to the path of artistic awareness. We sent out a desperate cry for help, beseeching listners to submit their t-shirt and sticker designs for us to have our way with, and o, were we led back to the light!
This year's Logo-Rama contest elicited the largest number of artistic submissions on record, and they were all so good that we can't help but share them with you. Take a gander at the myriad of listener art submissions right here.
The decision was tough, but we could only select 2 winners: Gregory Jacobsen's "Creepy Meatball" design (left) is featured on our December t-shirt giveaway (snag one for yourself by donating $45 or more to the freeform cause), and Nick Dewar's "Dancette" design (mock-up on the right) will be featured on a sticker to be given out during WFMU's 2006 on-air fundraising Marathon.
A big thanks to all of our artistically-endowed listeners who participated!
Great as the winners are.... I like some of the other submissions more! I vote that next time the listeners pick the winners! It'll engage us and have us feeling all important and included. Useful in March!

Wow, all of those cool t-shirt entries and you chose a shirt that will give most kids under 10 months of nightmares and bed wetting? Why not just put some naked guy getting decapitated on your shirts if you want to make a bold statement?
No offense, but you guys haven't produced a decent t-shirt design since the Chris Ware comic back in the mid-1990s or the one with the map of Jersey City on it. That's why I always check off for a free CD, nite lite or other piece of swag than your t-shirts.

What's wrong with decapitated naked guys?

I for one welcome our new meatball overlords.
