Hahaha, 'cause there's nothing kids love to be reminded of more... :p

So true!

Re: Survival of the Fittest

I really like this one
mmm purple dodo birds. I'd buy one!

Re: Doing your jumping j@x =D

I actually like this but I wish it were University and not High School for some reason.

Well played sir.

I guess I should have used "Leonardo's Gym" instead.

Re: My Problem

GMV. And while I wouldn't buy it for -me-, if this makes the cut and goes to print, I have a friend in Iraq that will love it. We have ongoing bacon jokes. :D

It looks pink to me too. Orange would be really really nice, but I don't hate the pink. Other than that I think the colors are great. I do want to second the motion for you to do more designs like the cards, though. Ahhh... the cards.

Re: Exercise Hurts.

Yay FOG!!!

Just like my head this morning.

Yeah, that's all I got. Good design Jamie.

:c)

Re: big ME little team

Love this hate the color shirt though. Still got my vote.

I'd say this IS your best (it's my favorite, at least)! I love it. I want it.

Re: Only 30 More to Go

I just love this shirt, the composition is really well done and I have a soft spot for raccoons. It has my vote, and I really hope it makes it into the fog. I would totally buy it.

Re: The Winner

I just see a red X instead of the shirt comp....

cmdixon2 wrote:Hey the comments are finally working.
I was especially curious if the placement of the word "TAKES" looked awkward.

I can understand your questions about "takes" kind of wish it fit in the box/square-ness of the other words. On the other hand maybe there is some subconscious phallic imagery there that fits perfectly with the theme...yikes.
Overall design is excellent.

Re: My Problem

I voted because it made me laugh. Despite my vote I am still unsure if I could wear it. The design reaches too low for my liking and the shirts are already a bit snug for me so I would feel weird calling attention to my lower belly like that. Sure I could lose it, but then who would eat the bacon?

To the rest, you people seriously need to GTFO because you all just sound like a bunch of rude SOBs.

Re: Run For Your Life

Classic! I wonder how many people actually get it.

Re: Winston-Salem Triathlon

A new NC resident ... yeah I want this. I should buy three ... two for my chain-smoking parents!

Re: Gym Rat

Clever with the rat trap!
Needs cheese! ;c)
Good job Lucky!

Irrelevant wrote:I'll berate it for him then. I am typically a pretty fair guy I think, and try not to be too critical of designs...but I just do not see the appeal of this shirt at all. I confess: I make pretty simple designs around here, and probably shouldnt speak...but I also rarely see fog.

I am just so suprised the woot masses would go for this...it actually hurts my feelings a bit.

But alas, if the wooters speak, then so be it. I just would have never guessed this would see 20 votes, much less the fog.

Best of luck in going to print though!

What lack of appeal is there? Are you more concerned about the design itself or just the idea? And thanks for your wishes

Nice. I really like the colors, too.

arcsus wrote:I really like how the green visor works on the design. +1 And as always, total fan of your line work. Still waiting on that tutorial ahuhu.

Thanks arcsus, I really appreciate the support. I'm not sure that I have much to teach, but the big secret is drawing left handed.
;c)

Re: She is reported to have said that before

This shirt is hilarious, totally reminds me of my friend that says "that's what she said" like 12 times day ahuhu

Uh, let's keep the name calling to 0 if possible. It's just unnecessary and if you feel like you need to release your anger you can keep in this week's theme by taking up boxing :D

I definitely understand the point the artists are making about this shirt. If I put in hours upon hours of work into a shirt that I would hope to win and then "Joe" here comes along with a seemingly simple idea and design and sweeps the floor I would be disappointed as well.

I would just like to say that the overall goal of the derbies is to make a wearable shirt (with maybe some wit). How much effort one puts into a design is up to the artist and will be fruitless at some points in time. But no one should forget that this is a shirt contest and all that people are looking for is something to wear that expresses him/her self.

Re: Run For Your Life

so funny, yet so true...now i am scared =(

Re: I think that's enough for today (resub)

Re: Click! (See? I'm burning calories...)

Is 'exercise' spelled wrong on purpose?

Hah! To confirm I wasn't crazy spelling police, I googled 'exersise' & found an article called 'Loosing weight with exersise'.

Re: oops

If this had a front and center position I would have voted for it...
