Shirt.Woot

*My ticket into the Shirts on Sale Sad Rat Race

Once you get your shirt, why don't you post a pic?

it's the forbidden t-shirt

Grats on placing first, Travis! WTG

cool design, congrats to the artist, but would be cooler if the monkey was red

YES! I was hoping this would be 'King' this week! 'Grats Tuna!

Yes! Great work, terrific design. Well done!

Congrats tg. This is beautifully drawn and designed. Love the blue!

oh bravo gent!
didnt expect this one to get first, but he deserves to be there.
woot surprises me again. now if draxxx gets second i shall have a heart attack.

Congrats on the win, the shirt looks great

About half an hour ago, over AIM with my friend Mike:

"So.
Do you think tonight will bring us:
(a) a kitsune carrying a lantern in her mouth
(b) a tee shirt that would be better off as a poster that maps the alphabet to various mythological figures (A is for Atlas, E is for Eris, J is for Juno, M is for Minotaur, etc)
(c) something completely unexpected?"

I'm pleased to see that it's (c)!

I like the style of the blue outline. Background color is horrible. Can't read the writing. Not for me...

HUZZAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

congrats on the print, tgentry!!! And thank you for designing what will surely become my favorite woot shirt ever.

My favourite of the fog. Not sure whether I'm going to get it yet. Hm.

Made my day. In for 1. Love this shirt to the extreme.

Congrats, I might just have to get one. Need to go count how many brown shirts I have...

Hahaha this is hilarious. (I'm Chinese and I know what the Monkey King is.) But I just can't see myself or anyone I know in a shirt like that. We would get the "eye" from fellow Chinese brothers and sisters.

Thank god.

Now I know I don't have to look at all tomorrow night. Congrats on the print, Travis.

Now, since there's no way the least worthy shirt won't place second, here's hoping against hope that the other printable one gets third.

Nice job. I really like the blue on brown combination. It looks great. In for one.

hmmm, cool design, but this derby wasn't really my thing. grats on the print anyways.

So, basically.... transformers can be more than meets the eye, but they can't do it in a woot shirt.

Congrats, tgentry! Love the shirt design! Getting one for myself and a friend who did a great retelling of the story of the Monkey King... in the style of a gangster movie. XD

Awesome work!

I am Chinese and I know what the Monkey King is, and I LOVE THIS! Monkey king is the like the superman in Chinese...

Taking the name Sun Wukong, he vowed to use his powers for good, at least as far as a mythical ancient monkey is able to understand the concept!

It's been a while, but wasn't he actually really mischievous? The monk always had to tighten the tiara thinger to control him...

Is there such thing as brown-green colour blindness?

Haha maybe it's cuz I'm a chick. Enjoy it though!

I was hoping this one would win.

Stayed up just to get first crack at it.

And so you did!

I bought this without hesitation. Thought I might've been the first sucker.

This shirt fulfills many of my t-shirt goals: 1)to have a blue on brown (red is a bonus) tee 2)cultural aspect 3)a monkey 4)even better, the monkey king!

I hope SDS will be off by 17 votes for Sunday's shirt.

Congrats, tgentry. Not sure if I'll pick one of these up, but the design is beautiful, and it makes a nice shirt -- very wearable.

Design Size:
3X – S: 13” x 16.43”
WXL - K4: 9” x 11.37”

Drat, all the men's designs are the same size as a 3xl??!? [no wonder 'easy optimism' seemed kinda big]

Maybe i should change my order to WXL... I know this makes the most logistical sense for t-shirt printers, but meh. Is 13” x 16.43” pretty darn close to the entirety of the front of a men's Small?

That's bigger than my laptop. Or the one I missed out on yesterday.

So glad this came in first. Love it! Congrats Travis. Now I have to go and try and scrape up some coin and hit the coinstar. Here's hopin' for Drakxxx tomorrow!

Congrats on the print. It's not for me, but my son loves it. Today is his birthday, so he gets one.

Many congrats. This is a great design. Definitely my one of my two favorites of the fog.

I love this shirt, the design, the colors, :o.

dammit. i thought I fixed it before it could be quoted.

UGH! Another ^%#$ing monkey. I *hate* monkeys. I'd have bought this even if it were a giraffe head. ANYTHING but a boffing monkey!

Great design, but yuck on the monkey.

Was holding off buying due to financial woes, but after just reading the story of the monkey king, I am totally compelled to buy it due to spiritual kickassery!

Oh btw, to make it look more fun, the stick the Monkey King is holding is supposed to be "brass", not wood. In all the Chinese dramas that I've watched in the past, all the Monkey Kings carry a fancy brass stick like weapon.

I didn't expect this to be first, but I'm glad it did.

I'm in for one.
