It's your first post, and you are asking for PM's again???
I smell spam and not the kind in a can.

Ambrosia wrote:I don't understand why the shirt hasn't received more votes. Does resubing cause less votes? Whatever the reason, I think it is unfair your design is not receiving more votes. Very creative idea. I would definitely buy it. Good job.

Thanks. It's just a side effect of not being in the hotness... you either are in there or you're not. And there's already one bear up there...

I also think it's because the colors are a bit vivid in the design. If I toned it down, it'd probably be more popular. But thanks! I liked it.

I like the design! If the blue paint spots are bird poop are the black paint spots ...? Tree poop? I don't think the poop theory holds up.
I like the extra paint!

critisim: i feel that the background blends into the bee a little bit to much, i suggest either making the background a lighter color or possibly putting an outline around the bee (possibly the color of the shirt)

Dude, thanks for the great feedback. Totally agree wtih your thoughts. Preciate the props too... truth be told I entered it pretty early but got no love from nobody...

What can you do?

Re: Spring Shming, Where's My Coffee

prolly not big enough,should have blown it up more. oh well, and amzing thing is my first bees shirt is doing better then the cleaner version...

Re: Spring Explosion Less is Better

Very nice, gmv for sure.

Re: Pockets of Spring III

Yea.... More trees.

Actually it doesn't make any difference since you can vote for as many shirts as you like. I am pretty sure with the number of votes needed to win, not even James Cho has that many friends. I like No. 1's veggie designs and I always vote for them. Go eat a carrot or something Ms. Snarky. Yeah, or broccoli, that's it!

Re: April Showers Bring May Flowers

Still a fight for 10th between Andy, me and Patch. May the best water droplet, skull or cherry blossom win. Hoping James' bears get back to the fog. I really like that one. The family focus is a new one for a derby shirt.

Re: ...out like a Lamb

Too bad this would not arrive before the end of March if it printed.

Please rework it - I would love this shirt!

I'm glad you liked it so much! I'm sorry that you suffer as much as I do, too. :o(

I didn't get a chance to, but, maybe I will submit it to one of those popular sites that prints shirts for you....I don't know if I am allowed to mention other sites here so I will leave the googling to you.

sailstud25 wrote:Yeah, after the 60 days, consider looking into printing it locally to sell on your site if you want. Happy belated birthday, btw

Is there a 60 day limit on when I can use this design elsewhere? I don't really have an issue with it. I was just wondering if that was an official rule, and where it's posted.

It's part of the Terms and conditions document that you had to agree to (a little box you had to click) before you can submit and entry. If you didn't get a copy, you can wait until noon tomorrow when woot starts accepting entries for the next derby, and they will have the entries link operating again. Or write to woot to ask for a copy. There is a lot of stuff in there, and it would be good info to have around.

And be sure to check back at noon today to see what the next derby's theme will be.

Here is a copy of relevant snips from where mjc referred to. Since I did have the full contents, I uploaded it here.

Yay, it's been in the fog while I wasn't looking!
Poop??? that's odd... my thought was the last remaining snow; maybe some kids' left over snowballs from the shape of them. I like the extra paint too; it seems like a nice way to spread the color across the design a little more. I hope it gets printed.

Re: Pockets of Spring III

Come on last minute (er 3 hour) voters! Only need like 50 of you to help it's chances of being in the top three!
That's not too much to ask, is it?

Re: Here Comes The Sun (do do do do)

Come on collaboration madness! I need this shirt!

Re: Pockets of Spring III

Thanks so much everyone! It will be close, but if I don't get in the top three, this was exciting and gave me a lot of experience for next time. Thanks for all your help and criticism.

By the way, this was not meant to have a deep deep meaning constructed through every detail with extensive thought…it’s just supposed to be a cool design (something you would wear on a shirt) for spring. I admit this didn't require too much artistic...skill...as it was put, but I would wear it and I will put more skill and thought into creating a better executed design next time.

Keep on voting and thanks again everyone!

eileenwoot wrote:dude i really like your design...how long did it take?

Thanks, I'm glad you like it. This is my first entry. What took the longest was trying to think of something to make.

thewarrior wrote:this is a cute little design...i like it alot!!

Thanks! It was actually a little joke design I did before the contest started, and at the last moment decided to actually enter it. It's an homage to my friend kenney9226.

exactly! beer, bears and harleys totally go together, imo! a shot of tequila and some edgar on the side! plus, a cute tee looks great under a leather jacket!

wooHOO!!! Right with ya!!

thedansterwashere wrote:tie maybe? hope so...

I saw that too... hope so, then you'd get printed, right?

Simple enough... the ground has thawed with the spring, allowing not just the flowers, but the zombies to bloom. You think a zombie's going to break through 3 feet of frozen soil to come out for christmas in canada? ;)

I'll totally buy one of these if it wins. I may even buy extras for gifts.

Re: Pockets of Spring III

GMV.
Where's the "I'd Want One"!!?!?
I need this shirt.

Congrats on the first place win!

Re: Expecting a bundle of joy

Re: Spring Shming, Where's My Coffee

GREAT IDEA!! WHEN CAN I GET ONE OF THESE SHIRTS????

Looks like you and patch both beat me. But you are both good folk so that's fine.

Re: Springtime Rebellion!!

I had such high hopes for this design, too... pity.

I wish we could have one of these designs for each of the four seasons! If not in the derby then in the daily. I would have bought this shirt. I have "All is Calm". Maybe WOOT could work something out with you.

Re: Windy Spring Day

hmm I am at 49 now, 1 more and Ill have 50, not bad.
