Pantelope!

Well, the t-shirt site has finally gone live.

Pantelope.com

It took about eight months to bring this thing to fruition and there's no telling what'll happen next. The internet is littered with the wreckages of various little attempts and fly-by-nights that crashed on the e-commerce highway. Pantelope could join 'em in a flying ball of fire, but we're going to give it a heckuva shot.

There are seven people behind Pantelope, made up of a mixture of old VeggieTales colleagues of mine plus some friends from college: three artists, one coder, one e-commerce guru, one photographer and me as general frenetic. I find a sort of beauty in working in community like this, shaping a coalition of similarily minded people together into creative output. It's an occurrence that is sadly rare these days and I hope that this experience will generate other such associations, either via me and my acquaintances or via the inspiration that others take from what we've done.

Strength in numbers. Creativity in numbers.

Pantelope.

So, hey, take some time to stop and eat the roses.
