Re: Saddest Ghost Ever


I like how you removed the shoe and added the stitch to the costume. I liked this a lot before, but I think you made it better. Good job.

I have quiet literally been refreshing the derby page constantly in the hopes that I would come across this derby entry. I saw your original post of it in Shirt.Woot Blog for this derby, and I laughed (for hours).

Srsly.

Oh man, I wasn't even sure this was going to be posted. I got home at 3am and thought I'd try one last time to submit it, and it seemed to work but then didn't show up, so I just went to bed. I'm so glad it worked.

Thanks for the great responses, A special thanks to the people on the forum who helped me kick up the sadness a notch.

I'll accept that, thanks!

By the way, don't go see Pixar's UP and then look at this shirt, there's some dust in my eye now or something.

Awwww. It was neat to watch this in the pre-derby thread get more and more depressing touches. I also like the new placement, that extra long rain really pushes this higher on the sad-o-meter.

Hah, perhaps if I had made a shirt with a sad-o-meter it would get printed... It sounds too familiar though... can't put my finger on it.

Oh, so you mean every single shirt at Spencers?

Because woot would never print such a blitheringly overdone idea, right?

This design is beautifully sad, just like real life. I would totally buy one, and it would make a great lithograph IMHO.

I actually don't like the placement... I usually don't like it when the graphics starts all the way up and then ends by my waist.

With that said... I really like the illustration and gmv. This would be the first shirt I would buy with this kind of placement!

So he waits patiently for WEEKS for this night to come, he dresses in his best "gotta make it all by myself" homemade costume and the anticipation kills him as the 31st draws nearer and then ....BAM IT RAINS on Halloween night &he hass to spill the candy ta boot!!! we've all been there .... It's kinda a Charlie Brown moment isn't it.

My version included freezing cold, sleet and snow, and me getting major blisters on my feet because I was wearing someone else's shoes as part of the costume. I can still remember limping home and trying to decide whether it would be worse to take the shoes off or leave them on.

So yeah, I sympathize with this little fella. I'd buy it. And I'd probably wear it at other times of the year, just to remind me that it does get better.

I'm glad it reminds you of a moment in your life. Me too, for some reason I remember the bad Halloweens more.

I want it regardless of how it turns out in the Derby. Is there any way you could have it printed in the future? I'd definitely get one from ya for 10 or 15.

Well that leaps into the vacuum, I really wanted to see this one print. Either way you made a great design for the given theme, and just in general!
