Slashdot T-shirt suggestions, July 2003

Oliver Knill


Here were my six Slashdot T-shirt suggestions, submitted to a July 2003 competition. None had won. All six contributions were written directly in Postscript.

The anagrams of the word "slashdot" were found with the little Unix program anagram. You can look at the PS source by opening the postscript versions below with a text editor. Its content is also added below
