Legendary Surfer t-shirt design (link roundup)

Japanese demon surfing on a giant carp - - a t-shirt design by Matheus Lopes Castro up for vote at Design by Humans.

And a few more links:

1. One of the book covers I highlighted recently is actually part of a bit of a scandal - - it features a white girl with long hair, even though the book is actually about a black girl who has short "nappy" hair. The author was not pleased. (Which all adds up to tell me, whoever decided on the cover did a good job.) Via.

2. The letter "U" as a plush monster (scroll down).

3. An impressive list of incredibly stupid serial killer ideas.

*Previously: Armored carp.

*Buy oni at eBay.

These won the Kings of Leon design contest?!

These are the first, second, and third place winners in the Kings of Leon t-shirt contest at Design By Humans:

They received 14, 63, and 14 votes, respectively. The first is inoffensive at best, the second is decent, and the third, well . . . .

By comparison, these are the two designs I previously mentioned:

Kings of Leon by tweetomat - - 5 votes.

Living pirate skull by deyaz - - 102 votes.

Man, weird designs win at Design By Humans. There's a huge sale on $12-$15 shirts there, by the way.

Also, there's a great article about Kings of Leon in this week's Rolling Stone (not online as far as I can tell). The singer's (Caleb) mom sews his ridiculously tight jeans.
