The New Masthead Archive
Jon recently did some upgrades to the code of the website, and for the first time in several years we now have a functioning archive of all the mastheads I've ever designed. (You can also get there through the MASTHEADS tab at the top of the page.) It goes all the way back to the first one I ever designed in September of 2001. Not sure I have a favorite one, and as I look back at all of them I'm reminded of so many different stages of my life covered here in these pages. You guys have any suggestions for next month's tagline?

I can't get into specifics, but it's gotta include butt pillows.

I second TriptikGirl--took the words as I was typing!
Perhaps 'The George Clooney of Butt Pillows'?

I just made an account for the sole purpose of telling you: I LOVE this masthead. I love most of them, but this may be my favorite. Just keep this one for another month! I'm sure nobody will complain...

You must be running out of vile hater's emails if you're asking us for ideas ;-)
How about "where leprechauns come knocking"? No, too lame....

I wish I had your design skills. Okay I wish I had your talent in any area from writing to butt pillow selection.
Here are 2 ideas for the next one:
Harbinger of Turdballishness
or
Brace Your Skull on the Headrest
I also like Meg's idea. Though may I suggest an edit as follows: "The George Clooney Butt Pillow of Blogs."

How about a masthead totally dedicated to Spring? I would love to see that since you're all waiting for a warmer weather in the northen hemisphere. :)
My goodness, the mastheads are beautiful. Wow. :D

Wow, you changed like every 2 weeks at the beginning. Impressive. I think you're muy talented.
Thanks for the walk through it...
And, I think butt pillow has to be involved. Or a helmet. Or something along those injured lines.

Not Regular

@Taratory - But she IS regular now!
"Writing since 2001, Regular since 2010"
"Come for the pillow, Stay for the butt"
"Sleep is for pussies"
"Feel the love"
"Why yes, those are hippos"
"Like a light spring rain of profanity"
My brain is not functioning at full speed right now.
(That last one is a permanent label for my own head, not a tag line for you)

I love the references to Mary J. Blige, Kellis, and Destiny's Child songs. You just upped your street cred a significant amount. The accountant at my job was wondering why I was smiling at the computer...those mastheads are fucking fantastic.
Now, I'm outta here..before I get "Dooced."
03.17.10 - 04:25 PM / 15Taratory said:
@ Curiosity: I must have missed that post. Digestion issues aside, I'd still argue that Dooce is anything but regular!

Butt pillows and turdballs and pens (OH MY!)

Ooops. Didn't read the directions thoroughly and made comment unrelated to April's tagline. Would have deleted myself into oblivion, but your site wants something in the comment field. Sorry to take up space AND offer no ideas. Hope one of the other 44 help. :)

I'm so glad you did this. I love the option to click on one, and just click-a-dy-click-click to the end of the page. Fantastic.

Have butt pillow will travel! Think of the possibilities! You could even make a theme song the using "The Ballad of Paladin". If I'm not mistaken Richard Boone (who starred in the TV show "Have Gun Will Travel) was related to Daniel Boone too! A full circle pun. :)
03.17.10 - 04:52 PM / 20jem3278 said:
Wow, that's just beautiful. When I die, I want to come back as one of your mastheads. :)
p.s. My captcha is "town arsonist" - how did they know??

I really like the "Brace Your Skull on the Headrest" suggestion.
03.17.10 - 05:02 PM / 22meganithappen said:
Brace your skull on the george clooney butt pillow.

Tag line: Sticking it where the sun does shine.
03.17.10 - 05:29 PM / 24GAgirl said:
Some kind of decorating stuff since that's your latest adventure. If not that then you must do something related to your butt pillow!

Sorry, but I'm giddy with the prospect of healthcare passing.

I think it should have to do with your new HGTV gig... and all the haters.
How 'bout your line:
"An Untrained Plebe"
That word just makes me laugh. Plebe. HA!

Love the mastheads, it's awesome to see your design skills progress over so many years!
03.17.10 - 06:33 PM / 28rIAm said:
how about
BRACE YOUR BUTTS, TURDBALLS
or
STILL NO BUTT AFTER ALL THESE YEARS
I am sure more ideas will come to me in the half-sleep time when I am nursing my son... :P

My Ideas:
Butt Pillows R Us
Open 24/7
Just Add Vodka
This is not your fathers Oldsmobile
No animals were harmed in the making of this blog
