In my line of work it's d-cks like these whose minimal design ability and lack of motivation amount to the rise of mediocre ideas and trendy bullsh-t design that only go as far as a lame silkscreen t-shirt. Don't be so god damn self righteous.

HAHA LAURENS SITE IS THE ROXXORZ!!!!!!!!!11
p.s. MBUSA's final designs on http://www.mbusa.com/campaigns/r… are the wiggitywack.
the tongue logo is iconic but the blue starburst and the very very very VERY poor font choice make this resemble a crappy bootleg tshirt made by some disinterested foreign company that has never even heard of the band

The benzo design that was selected for this project was in fact based on the stones last album cover "the bigger bang" which used the same graphics as the car. The design was NOT recommended by us but was requested specifically by MBUSA and was looked at and approved by the band. Yes Mick and company get the final say in the design. 15 designs were shown this was selected. That's the way it goes sometimes.

I was not hating on the site..thought it was a great example of how desktop publishing is killing our industry...

Hey people lighten up! It's just a really funny bad website. So what. It's okay to laugh at stuff like that once in a while. Don't be so self righteous. Like you've never poked a little fun at something before. Whatever.

In this case the car was painted by hand not wrapped in vinyl.
