Just testing the waters out...yes it's for an eventual shirt submission. I'm still toying with the design and colors.

I miss your mice but this is an acceptable substitute. Hope this is enterable for the next derby if you aren't planning to send it in as a daily.

And, um, the chinese takeout I've gotten lately doesn't have the little metal handle thingy on the box.

We still get the handles, depending on teh restaurant.

We get the foam box sometimes, too.

We'd rather not get the handles. Easier to μwave.

I recived the "pizza place foil" the last place we went in Indiana (on my Vac) it was a lot of food though. spicy chicken & garlic.
hope that my whales have a place in the next one.

I made one... sorry it's late. Eye dilation + class = hard to do until now.

spryte, PM

I just finished 3 shirt designs for St. Paddy's day... one I want to submit as a daily soon. Should I share that one or just spring it on Woot? I'm very happy with how it came out, so it doesn't necessarily need feedback. But I thought I'd offer....

Prof. Tek,
Doesn't woot like designs that haven't been seen recently? I'd suggest keeping it in PMs if possible.

Of course, I've never had anything printed or anything, so I don't know anything...

I'm not sure... but keeping it in PMs for people who are curious might be the best thing...

curiosity peaked by secretiveness... but, like some1, I have no proven insight.

Edit: I have the results from week one, which frighten and confuse me. Why does no1 say he hasn't had anything printed if he won?

Can you PM it to Mr. Me? I don't want to feedback I just want to ooh and ahh.

I can wait the week or so it'll take for woot to put it on sale.

You mean this?

Only 1st place was printed from that derby, IIRC.

That vacuums. Bad timing for your peak ey?

Schrobblehead wrote:That vacuums. Bad timing for your peak ey?

Yes. I have nothing left to look forward to, so I settle for "everything's a pirate."

At least "everything a pirate" is fun. That can be your pucker (please don't do that). That should be the theme next week--you'll have all 4 spots in the fog.

Probably not, actually. The thing I think I do OK at is treading in places where no 1 has gone b4... if that's the theme, everyone else will go there and do better.

At least I can laugh when what's-his-name complains about getting fourth place and not getting printed all the time.

Thanks, I'm sure the mice will return some time. They did rather well both times I submitted them.

We don't get the box - we get the foil tray with the plastic lid. The place close to home has a rectangle shaped container. The place near work has a round one. Ooooh variety. The only thing that comes in the box (with handles) are the boneless sparerib appetizer things, but I don't believe any of the places have any writing on them - just plain white boxes. Oh, sometimes we get large orders of fried rice (as a side dish when we have a party) and that just comes in really big plain white boxes (with handles).

That is silly! I always struggle just to get over 20 votes!!!

The first time I read this, I thought you said "the whoreless pucker"

I didn't think thatrobert took how many votes a design got into account as much as what he thought of it.

If you want to submit a daily, you e-mail them directly (it's shirt@woot.com I think- it's in the What is Woot? FAQ off of the shirt.woot.com site). The problem is that they don't necessarily tell you no, so if you submit something, you might not get a response back unless they say YES. And I expect the YESses are very few and far between.

I'm still a bit sad that my sponge design got sixth behind a glass on a shirt...

I thought you had to be a professional designer to do a daily.

No, you just need to have a design they'd like to print. I do wonder how many folks submit materials for daily shirts that are not designers by trade.

That gives me an idea for a derby theme... they could take the entries that they declined as a daily (and stillhave the rights to), and then pick some of them for a derby run-off.

They usually ask for your design experience, but if you've submitted designs on shirt.woot with some success, that usually is good enough.

I'm not sure... klswoot got her shirt printed that way, and I'm not sure what her background is.

Well, back to watching Chronicles of Riddick... fun movie.

What's the history of non-professionals getting dailies? Any at all?

I learn something new every day.
