Super Funny and Cute Illustrations by Randy Otter
I've found the work of Randy Otter thru Flickr while looking for some random stuff, since then I got really amused by his childlike and funny illustrations. Once someone said to me that in terms of illustration doing less details and having more meaning it's way better than doing a realistic artwork with nonsense, so I could say Randy really got it this tip on his body of work. You can see more funny and cute pics at his Flickr Gallery.

2010: A Year in Tees
Keith Walsh started a cool project in 2010 where he designed one t-shirt a day for 365 days, without fail. Featured here are some of my favorite ones. It started with a drunken bet, and ended up consuming a year of my life. Now here, in all their interweb glory are all 365 t-shirts in one place. Whether you like irony, typography, animals or puns, there's something here for you. There are even a few unicorns thrown in for good measure. The original idea was to design one t-shirt every week for a year. But then, numerous beers later, I thought "Why stop there? Why not do it properly and design one every day for a year?" So every day during 2010 I designed and uploaded a new t-shirt. I had no idea what a mammoth (and fun) project it would turn out to be. Even now I sometimes wake up in a cold sweat after yet another t-shirt dream. It seemed like a good idea at the time... Check out all the tees and let me know what you think via twitter!

The Funniest T-Shirt Designs of the Decade
Yesterday I was looking for some t-shirts to buy for Christmas and I started browsing through Threadless and other sites. As usual there were some beautiful illustrations and, of course, very funny ones. Then I decided to select the funniest ones and share them with you here at Abduzeedo. It's impressive how this guys can get so creative, exploring very simple subjects they come up with incredible ideas such as the Simple Plan by Neil Gregory, which I own one and it's so funnny; A Fest Fit for a King by Fatheed and the Eternal Exercise by Glennz, perhaps the most creative t-shirt designer out there. Below I selected the ones that really made me laugh, if you have others, please share with us leaving a comment with the link to the page.
