In case you missed it, the folks behind the design-community t-shirt site Threadless have launched Naked & Angry, a new site aimed at high-end fashion design.
Like Threadless, designers can submit artwork for consideration by their peers, and the highest scoring designs (in this case, patterns or textiles) will be used on fashion items like ties, home accessories, and more.
I'm a real sucker for great textiles, so this presented a great opportunity to throw some of my own work into the hopper. So without further ado, here are a handful of my Naked & Angry submissions. If you're not already a Threadless member, voting requires a simple, free registration. So if you'd like to see Yellowlane patterns on your business attire, here's your chance to vote.
Fellow Firewheeler, Etherbrian, has also posted a couple psychedelic patterns. Be sure to check them out as well. Sometime soon I'll throw up a tutorial about how I go about pattern designs if anybody is interested.

So it was you! I'm not lying when I say that I love these patterns. I had given them all fives. I didn't realize that you were the designer because, well... You were kinda "dead" in my mind.
I really hope Pixel Rain September will be printed; it's my favorite.
(Great. This way I'll never win. One of my designs is right behind Pixel Rain September.)

I'm also lovin' Pixel Pink. You must be really bored/out of work to have the time to make all these...
How in the world did you make Pixel Rain? It looks as though it would've taken an hour...
Joshwa says
Heh, I wish bored were the case... I'm busier that ever right now. Most of these patterns were done in an airport waiting for layovers.
Thanks for your kind words. I'll definitely post about the process behind Pixel Rain in the future. Its not quite as difficult to conjure up as one would imagine... But I have to keep my secrets for now. ; )
