Not necessarily. Not about the design but about the designer. Tgentry uses higher contrast color schemes (which just make my heart sing) and ramyb has a "cuter" style. If they did it, it would look different, and would attract a different set of voters.

Re: At the Center Minotaur Awaits......

Wow this one is yours also very cool

It is the result My laziness made...
By the way, is it possible to fix a work in the entries.??

Your best bet would be just to remove the text and re-submit it as a new entry. It is typical for designers to modify the title to something like: "Monkey Magic Resub - no text".

Good luck!

Re: Guardian of El Dorado

very cool design, and there are a lot of them this week good job.

I second the disagreement. I usually smell like berries or flowers and while being a dork, I definitely don't need to wear more makeup. And my fiance agrees. Liking dragons does not automatically make you unattractive.

Oh, and btw this will be my first cream shirt if it wins. I'm really not partial to cream, but I love the design enough to ignore the color of the shirt. I'm amazed Draxxx! Fog it up! (you got my vote when you posted)

Re: Right on Track: Beat the Machine!

Okay P, I voted! Love K

Ditto.

Re: One Too Many Apples

As usual creative and well done, so win one already!

Re: behold his noodle-y appendages

I respect the FSM as much as any other intelligent person, but this shirt is just a bit too busy for me.

Thanks for everybody's comments and votes, I really appreciate them! Things have been pretty crazy around here, as you can imagine, but we're doing great! Thanks again!

Re: The Legend Sword

Re: My Little Pony (of Death)

Squee! Might actually make me buy a black shirt if this makes the fog!

Re: The Legend Sword

Wow, this one is really neat! The textures in the background are awesome. Nice work!

This one is really clever. It's too bad it got rejected the first time around, but it doesn't look like that slowed you down any. I don't even know what all of these things are, you must have had to do a little research to find something for all of the letters of the alphabet. Once again, nice work!

Ah, Boots. Where do you come up with this stuff? I'm always impressed with your concepts.

Thanks so much, I'm actually wearing your Jimmy shirt right now XD

Re: Feng? Huang? Fenghuang!

This is a strange one, good job gmv

Awesome, as always, Drakxxx. You deserve a win, you've been so close so many times. Good luck!

Wow, I think this is my favorite of yours. Nice work man!

I feel like this isn't your usual style. I like it a lot, I think it's really neat.

I really like the cartoony/sketchy style on this one. I'm surprised it's not getting more votes. It's got mine!

Re: My Little Pony (of Death)

HEEE!!! GMV!

This one has an incredible amount of detail. It must have taken you a long time to do the lighting and shading to get it just right. Nice work!

Re: Stroll down the Styx

Thanks for your votes and support everyone! This is a really close derby that's going to come down to the wire so every vote helps.

Indeed! Nicely done!

Ah, I get it now. Thank you for that explanation. Nicely done, as usual!

This is super funny, Love your style. It keeps a loose fun feeling while keeping the design tight and clean. GJ.

Re: Trojan Blowfish

Pulling in some votes for your first design not bad and good luck.

Thanks dude

Re: The Mares of Diomedes

Nice illustration

Hey man no offense meant. There's a reason that you have a large following, and that's because you're an awesome artist. All I'm saying is that I think entry is good enough to be up there but it isn't partly because the artist lacks the reputation.

Also, racism. :P

It was submitted Monday night from the looks of it, so that right there is the biggest reason it's not fogged. I also don't think reputation has anything at all to do with getting a shirt design fogged or printed. People print shirts all the time with no reputation, that's how they get reputations to begin with. Even then, you're not guaranteed votes. I got 61 votes in the Continuous Line derby, 55 in the Book Titles Reinterpreted. If I have a following that votes for every one of my entries no matter what, it's no bigger than 55-60 people, and even that's probably being very generous.

I think David's a talented artist and there are shirts of his I thought should have been printed (most notably his Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon design, which was superb). I think enough people are aware of David and his designs now. I hope he keeps at it, because he's one of the artist's here that has the potential to print on a regular basis and probably will.

Thanks! Only 189 more to surpass! >:D

And yes, this is indeed John Henry.

Re: One Too Many Apples

This shirt would go great with this one:-)

Aw, c'mon man, let's be friends. David himself said "I suppose I need to be a more consistent performer to do this."

He recognizes he needs to work harder. FWIW, I think guys like you and Cho do have a fanbase that helps, but you guys EARNED it by doing consistently great work week after week. Heck, I'm a member of your fanbase: I love your stuff. No one's saying you could put up any old crud and it would fog, or at least I didn't get that from what was being said.

Oh, and David, great effort from you this week, man. I like this even more than your minotaur design. Minotaur I'd have to think about before I pulled the trigger; this one would be an insta-buy. It just works so well on the shirt. Combines some really nice aspects of a logo shirt with an arty shirt.
