misbrands
The world's most hated IT stickers
A collection of joke sticker designs for programmers where familiar tech brand logos are paired with a rival company's name, designed for printing on laptops or ordering from a sticker vendor.
Misbrands is a collection of joke sticker designs for programmers. Each sticker takes the visual style or logo of one well-known tech brand and puts a rival company's name on it instead. The joke works because the design looks instantly familiar while the name is wrong in a deliberately absurd way.
The project was inspired by a single JavaScript sticker created by designer Sam Beckham, which used a similar visual gag. The misbrands collection expands that idea into a larger set covering multiple companies and technologies.
The stickers are provided as image files for anyone to print or order from a custom sticker vendor. The README is very brief and addresses three questions directly: yes, you can print them; yes, you can order them from any sticker printing service (though not from the creator); and more designs are possible but unlikely.
There is no code in this repository. It is purely a design asset collection. The README does not list which specific brands are included or how many stickers are in the set, though a preview image is linked showing an assortment of designs.
With over nine thousand stars, the project clearly landed well with the developer community, likely passed around as a novelty. It is the kind of thing someone bookmarks to eventually get printed for a laptop.
Where it fits
- Download the image files and send them to a custom sticker printing service to make laptop stickers.
- Order printed versions of the designs from any sticker vendor using the provided image assets.
