One man's moonshine is another man's propane tank I guess. I love this shirt, and it's criminal that it's not in the fog. Still, I will vote for it with FURY!

I can think of several quite humorous times I might use this at work. I'm more of a lover of coffee brown shirts, but this still has my vote

Re: Salmon Run

Nice solid style! GMV

Re: Curious Little Turtle

I like this a lot. It might pop more on a light blue, but I don't know anything about t-shirt printing. Either way, you have my vote, and purchase if you win.

Re: Heart ache

I think if it was any other color, I'd vote for it. (Love the cranberry...)

Re: St Bernard Action Dynamo (resub)

5 colors on brown. It was on black originally, but it looked arf-ful. Sorry. Please enjoy.

Re: St Bernard Action Dynamo (resub)

i really like this... great job GMV

Re: St Bernard Action Dynamo (resub)

What a sweet design! I love it and voted. Great work!

Re: Famine Famine Hippos

I thought this was one of your designs at first Dekonstruct. (That's meant as a compliment to both you and Lucky...as I'm a big fan of both of your illustrative styles!)

i thought the independence derby had already closed?

Your probably right, but unfortunately I've run out of colors. The grenade is actually the same color as the shirt, which is the only reason why it works.

I appreciate your comment!

Re: Swim!

Love it

I realize a minute past midnight (the title of the shirt) would be AFTER the destruction and there might not be any missiles left flying...but it's 4:30AM and I'm not changing the title. Plus, nobody would be around to prove me wrong.

This was partly inspired by our current leader-of-the-free-world's disregard for intelligent negotiation rather than dangerous escalation with our "rivals". If that's not an emergency, then I don't know what is.

Here's a link to a much larger picture:

I'm impressed... nice work! GMV!

The reason why the T-Rex is charging in the first place is because that dude took his credit card away.

This shirt rules.

Re: cat-tastrophy

with a yard full of cats we see this happen occasionally.. we watch the cats stalking the birds and cheer when they manage to get away.

Re: I don't have much left, Martha.....I love you..

Darn edgar, that is one sad t-shirt. Pepper never gets used in my house so I'll have to comfort myself by saying that the pepper could still hang in there.

Re: cat-tastrophy

This makes me wonder at what point does something stop being an emergency and start being a catastrophe. In my limited education I was led to believe that an emergency is in the process of being a catastrophe.

Nice design though, just not sure if it's an emergency any more.

Definitely gonna buy this one!

I gotta say. Cool design, but I'm with the majority. I'm tired of seeing birds, and silloutte ones so frequently at that.

well.. depending on the time frame.. if the cat has just now caught it and it still has a chance of escape..

thanks for the comment.

Re: What happened here?

So bizarre it's . . .beautiful . . sniff.

Re: Tuesday is gonna be rough (resub)

I see you got rid of the low temperatures, this improves it methinks.

Re: Tuesday is gonna be rough (resub)

I love this shirt so much, it is almost ridiculous. Great job, Hax, GMV.

Re: Famine Famine Hippos

I love it! This is what my hungry hungry hippos game looks like right now...

I love the simplicity of your designs. Nice work!

Re: Sorry?

Dang, looks like you could walk away with three wins this week. Guess you'll have to take us all out on your yacht from all the money you make this derby.

Re: Curious Little Turtle

best shirt ever

HA HA, well I do admit this is crazy, never had 3 in the top ten and probably never will again (and I'm sure it won't last much longer . .this is one great theme and I know people are hard at work drawing).
No yacht But I can go and pick up a kiddie pool and invite y'all over to soak your feet.

i mean a black bird on a woot shirt... this is so amazing and original!
congrats on getting printed, cause it's EXACTLY what wooters are looking for!

No doubt. As soon as I saw this shirt entered, I new it would rocket to the fog. I'm jealous. I wish I would have thought to do this. Don't get me wrong. It looks cool. It's just that it looks eerily familiar.

I does seem that this artist is new to the derbies. So I'll give him or her the benefit of the doubt.

Re: I don't have much left, Martha.....I love you..

Funny!

Re: [url=http://shirt.woot.com/Derby/Entry.aspx?id=19344]

I had the same idea, but I think yours turned out great. I think this shirt is way under apriciated. GMV

There are very very very very few designs that are actually good on light blue. Greens and pale yellows are definitely not one of them. I don't pretend to understand the fascination with light blue here but for the sake of all of us who would actually like to wear this shirt and future shirts, just don't do it.

funkadelikbob wrote:No it's not. Think about it.

actually, I think it will be considered off theme, because just looking at it, it doesn't look like an emergency.

Re: take my balloon instead?

for the record, this could make a wonderful wallpaper for my desktop. love it, too bad it's not getting more attention.

Re: FLIP ME!!!

Thought it was an eye too. Going to pretend it is supposed to be an eye....it gives him that look of "great. AGAIN?" instead of crying about it. He seems more pensive; and I like my turtles pensive.

so, anyways, please don't change it. this is the only way it's meant to be, it's great as is.

Re: 1 Minute Past Midnight

Wow, I love the interpretation of the concept and the shirt!
And how timely - In 2007, the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists moved the minute hand of the Doomsday Clock two minutes closer to midnight to make it 5 minutes to midnight. In 1995 it was 14 minutes to midnight!

they look NOTHING alike. in fact, i think the Woot version is much better

I agree completely. Similar ideas behind the two shirts, but the designs are completely different. Woulda GMV.

Re: What happened here?

I love it! And the heart shirt getting rejected is totally unfair. +1

Re: I don't have much left, Martha.....I love you..

bwaaahaha....good stuff edgar, gmv.
