Thanks for your intellectually stimulating and, really, spot-on analysis of that repugnant "IT" shirt. Would-be designers like vishneda would do well to heed your critique and cease their miserable attempts at design. Bravo sir, for putting the kabash on such tomfoolery so succinctly and (dare I say) bravely. Please continue to fight the good fight against bad design, lest more of it enter (and remain in) our beloved fog! Huzzah!

Thanks!

Agreed. I'm sad it's not already up in the fog... I've got my finger's crossed...

Why is this out of the fog?

This definitely has my vote.

Re: Super Fatcat Deluxe

Really?!?
Effin fine design like this and nobody has a comment? I'm gobsmacked.
Still, IF they ever offer this, and IF I happen to find it before they sell out, I'm in for the lot . . . or three. I'll have to see how flush I feel at the time.

Disclaimer: I'm a [borderline crazy] cat person. I thought "The Last Mimsy" was a fine piece of cinematography.

I give this design a big "two dewclaws up".

Re: THE Comparative Diagram - Size

Hmm. Never realized that blue whales and cruise ships were so phallic. :D Looks like a subliminal Viagra ad to me. I'd buy one. Phallic symbolism not withstanding. All the boner pill spam in my inbox has desensitized me.

he's a composer. and a mathmetician. he needs a rest. I would buy this for him.

Gthree... I love your vocabulary.

Re: Phoenix in the wind

very much want this one. I believe it lost out to the fire swallower shirt way back. Got that one, but wanted this one more.

Vote for It! You know you want to! :D

Thanks for the kind words!

and how realistic is a giant ass name tag in the MIDDLE of a shirt anyway

Im glad its big and in the middle. It needs to be read and not just seen to be appreciated.

Re: Light vs Dark

Really cool, but I feel like if I wore it people would think it was an anime thing or something.

Indeed. I honestly just don't get it.

Re: tag

I love this and i hope it wins!

It looks pretty assured of its print status at this point.

It's a shame really... I don't dislike this idea as such, though I'd never buy it myself, and if it had placed during its original derby, I don't think I'd have cared at all. The issue I have with it is simply in the context of THIS derby. I don't fault the designer at all, it was designed to be easy to "get" and garner quick votes, but in a derby such as this one, where a good half the designs not only COULD be printed, but SHOULD be (and I'd argue this one is in that half), it's a shame for some better design that it's poised to be top-3.

Again, it's not that this is bad. It's just not this good, to me.

my mistake sorry bout that, but if we get this to the fog, i'll try to get woot to edit the shirt before they print. dont for get to vote, w still have time to get it ito the fog!!!!

goldfishinapicklejar wrote:I like it, too bad it's on olive/dg whatever the color is.

But it's such an apathetic color! :^)

I love the design... but the steel greys into the oranges.... I dunno. Maybe if this was in a different color scheme. I understand what you were going for, especially with the title and all... and I love it, but it wouldn't fit into my wardrobe at all.

The other down note for me is the color of the shirt. I destroy white shirts, and cream isn't that far off.

I'd love to see this done on either a navy or cranberry shirt... but that's just my $.02

Re: Quixotic Rock legend

Vote. I played a lot of rock band this week and I wants me my shirt. :^)

Thanks Jaden! I'm an English major, and simply love what language can do. I hope the sarcasm of my post was plain.

vvasabi8 - I've been pushing for this one to fog. I really want this shirt!

Same here I'm trying to get everyone I know who does wooting to vote for this shirt!

Re: Light vs Dark

I love this shirt. I want this shirt.

Get this shirt in the fog. Now. ;)

If you wrapped these like real bandoliers, all the way over the shoulder and across the back you wouldn't be able to make enough of them!

Sweeeet. This shirt is PERFECT! I'm am IT, and a few people do need to learn to run....BwaHaHaHaHa.

Re: I've heard of the 70's

I really love the scratchy faded look and as a complete dork for textures I would buy this in a flash. Plus I've heard of the seventies so it wouldn't be a lie.

Re: deluxe superhero costume

This shirt makes me think of the old SNL Skit

What were the 70's?.. I've heard of the '70s... I've even heard of the 70s... but.. not the 70's...

The 70's were way better than those pallid old 70s. The 70's were a time when nothing could come between the love of a 0 and an S. Nothing.

Language is fluid, and I'm only saying that because I'm terrible with words

Language IS fluid- hence w00t as the word of the year. This isn't language fluidity, it's just bad grammar.

Thats actually how i type... my fingers know which letters to push most of the time, but don't always put them in the right order...

I really, really love this shirt. I made it my background on my desktop. It's so ridiculous.

Re: Boxer Boy Saves the Day!

I love the total left brained quirkiness of this shirt. And the goofy cartoony art style. I wish the text was a little clearer and easier to read in the comp, but I bet it would print just fine.

And by left brained I really meant right brained. >_<

Re: Take it back

Here's hoping this shirt gets high enough to displace one or more of the top three. It seems to me that the others are pretty solidly placed.

Re: 100% Detail

This shirt is really clever, I wish it was getting more love so I could start a texture themed shirt collection.
