Hey this is my first time out to Talk Magic, and i was wondering what you guys would think of this brand new T-Shirt idea i have.. I wanted a T-Shirt that was both stylish, trendy and useful other than just a t-shirt. Elegant Deception (hints the name Elegant Deception) the idea is in the T-Shirt are 3 different and unique card revelations. There is a barcode by the tag of the shirt which reveals the King of Diamonds, in writing like the bottom of the custom Ellusionist decks, and hidden between the word Elegant and Deception is a 6 of Diamonds emblem (think of the patter that can come with that) , and then finally my favorite (Twist)
Twist is an idea i thought of (probably been thought of before) is were the spectator selects a card and you ask them to twist random letters on your tshirt.. ( on the bottom right hand corner) and you tell them to concentrate... and they let go and they are still random but wait you fold the shirt in half and it is their selected card.. The 7 of Spades ...

Here are some images i created in photoshop nothing is final yet i wanted to get your imput before i run this off to the print company...

Main Design


Promo close up ( location on the shirt)

and finally TWIST



Let me know what you think! and how many shirts if any i should get!

im only a green newbie but would i be right in thinking these shirts could end up in a nearby sin bin soon...?

To be honest I personally think the t-shirt looks great, and the reveals are good.

Great idea.

So great, Jay Sankey's already thought of it.

Also, unless I misunderstand the concept, your "random letter" reveal for the seven of spades, after being folded actually reads:

Seven
saswef
spdes

or

Seafven
sasfwef
spades

Unless you're utilizing a lot of folding, in which case I might remind this is a shirt, not origami...

Hmmm yes very similar to Mr Sankey's shirt.

But the design is nice.

I like it.

I like it. Although being a female-type person I probably won't go in for asking random people to grope my T-shirt.

[Looks again] Oh, the twist bit is at the bottom. OK, that might do.
