    25 Funny T-Shirts for Designers and Developers

    Compilation, Humor, Web Design

    View Comments




    Everyone loves an original and unique t-shirt.

    Fashion statements aside, they do give a slight insight into your personality, your current mood and sets you apart from the crowd.

    This article is not a collection of the best designed t-shirts by the best designers, this is a collection of t-shirts especially for designers and developers.

    Those poor suffering souls that have to endure the pain and distress of the questions from everyday Joe’s (“you work with a computer, do you? Will you fix mine?”) and have to work with the many pitfalls and perils that the web offers (IE6 and Flash intros).

    Yes, this collection is for you!

    You Are The CSS To My HTML


    Yes, I am a WEB DESIGNER!



    I just took a HUGE mySQL DUMP

    Skipped Flash Intro


    Do I Look Like the Help Desk?


    It's not a bug, it's a feature


    ...will work for beer



    Loading... Please Wait...


    Dead Pixels


    My Mom went to the W3C...


    I Know HTML


    What part of...

    In the beginning...


    Photoshop - Helping the Ugly


    Don't bother me...


    Concept Development


    Will Kern for food

    • Praveen A P

      My Girlfriend is already fed up of all the Java Shit. Now, If I wear the T shirt that said “I skipped your flash Introduction”, then She would design a shirt for herself that would say “Access Denied. Are you Trying to Hack?”

      Two favs: Photoshop – Fixing Ugly Since 1988 (yes, it has!)

      2. Any of the ones that explain that a web designer is not an IT tech, or a computer technician.

    • http://www.creativeindividual.co.uk Laura

      Wow, I would love some of these… what you can say on a t-shirt that you just wouldn’t dare say to a client’s face…

      My favs are:
      – fantastic!
      I just took a hugh mysql dump – could offend so many people
      I Heart Command Z – so true

      “You are the CSS to my HTML is the best!”

      “Photoshop helping ugly people from 1988″

    • http://www.dollarlogodesign.com Dollar Logo Design

      I love all of them! My favorite is “yes i’m a web designer no, i won’t make your website for free!” As a designer, I have encountered a few of those annoying customers….

    • http://www.teamlogos.info/ Team Logos

      So hilarious!! I love all of them. I’ll make sure to get a few of them later.

    • http://www.cazazz.com cazazz

      The one with on front and on back is the cleverest, but I’d wear the “I love control Z” one any day!

    • http://www.cazazz.com cazazz

      ah, the body and end body tag doesn’t display in comments, so my above comment doesn’t make sense – all the more reason to wear it on a t-shirt!

    • http://www.squareroot-inc.com Susan

      Love it! Thanks for sharing this collection.

    • http://www.creativeworld.com.au Leon Poole

      Only one shirt on the list that I’d wear.. the ‘I see dead pixels’ is just pure awesome XD

    • http://www.jc-designs.net/blog Jeremy Carlson

      The “Yes I am a web designer, No I won’t make you a website for free” one is awesome. Every developer should wear that at family gatherings….or when with a client.

    • http://www.squiders.com Web Design Kent

      Very funny, ironically lacking design in many cases! Loved the – You wouldn’t ask an architect to fix your fridge…”

    • http://www.albruna.nl/albrunablog/ Martin

      I really like the one that says: don’t nother me, I’m rendering

      Excellent list!

    • TheAL

      Some of these are flipping awesome! My only tweaks: #2 should say “developer,” and #17 was way cooler when I saw the version years and years ago that used a huge Java function. CSS is a bit too easy for the joke to work.

    • http://pixert.com Kate Mag

      really fits designers.

    • http://www.absolutet-shirts.com jake huff

      I do tech support and work on websites so these are all great shirts, check out some of the funny shirts at absolutet-shirts.com they have tons of funny shirts as well

      If you like funny t shirts, be sure to check out http://www.normginatees.com. If the shirts don’t get you to tears, read the LEGEND of Norm Gina himself. Hilarious stuff..

    • http://www.stickgangs.com Stick Games

      Great tees there, might have to grab myself 1 or 2 of them :)

    • Macareno

      I want to suggest one of the best geek t-shirts (IMHO), the perfect cross-over between the IT Geek and the Heavy Metal fan: Metadata T-Shirt!
