Yes, things can be related to the Pittsburgh Pirates and still be awesome. The image you see before you is “living” proof.

Ok, that was bad. But don’t let my bad jokes dissuade you from a great thing. I just got this baby in from Steel City Cotton Works, right in time for opening day. I feel as if its fitting, as Pittsburgh is not only the birthplace of zombies, but also the birthplace of a baseball team that plays like zombies.

Ok, I’ll stop the crappy jokes. Go get one of these shirts, they rock.

Well, there is both a good and bad part to this story. Let’s start with the good:

My buddy Justin came to me a couple months back, and told me that he was starting an ultimate frisbee team in my home town of Ligonier. He asked if i would put a logo together for the team, in exchange for a jersey. I happily obliged, and proceeded to put together the logo you see below, based on the civil war fort located in Ligonier.

Now, for the bad. Below, you can see the final jersey. Not too shabby right? Well, apparently the printer saw fit to toy with my final eps file, completely jacking up the kerning on the work Fortress. Wherever you are captain dumbass, thanks for that novel idea.

Outside of that, the final jerseys are pretty cool. Some sweat control fabric that’s dang comfy, and you can’t go wrong with Steelers colors

My only hope is that the W3C somehow sees this

Get it here.

I actually had to draw out the pixellation of the font in illustrator, since I couldn’t get the font. I believe the standard Dreamweaver font is Courier New, but I wanted to get that cool pixellated look, which I couldn’t get by using the font.
