I also count 7 colors, but I could be wrong or double counting one color.

I'm very sad that it looks like this shirt isn't going to win. At least I can save another $10 this derby.

Woot generally likes the background of the thumbnail to reflect the shirt color, so you may have a problem.

This looks very like the Neptune at Virginia Beach, except he is holding a turtle instead of a clam. Did you base this on a photo?

I could have sworn that I commented on this one before... I really love it. The colors are especially nice and it's everything a simple design should be. I'd buy it happily.

Well *shrug* at the colour, looks good to me. gmv

I know I couldn't get the background to match obviously ! And yes I did base it on the statue at Virginia Beach !

Thanks. Sometimes I try to provide a description that tells the story as well as the picture, although this time I think the description is better than the piece.

Either way, this is fun.

Not being familiar with or a big fan of anime I went to look a little. I decided you might be complementing me. I bow in thanks.

I was planing on designing a Blue on Black Shirt, but that got taken already. I'm not one to copy another design or color skim on woot. So I decided to not to go forward with it. Thx for the comment and vote.

databit wrote:Nice shirt...
The effect I see is that if someone looked at it from 20 feet away they would see a different shirt than if they looked at it from up close. Neat effect!

Thanks! I thought that might kind of cool. Though from the votes, maybe there aren't too many others that do, or maybe haven't noticed!

This is actually pretty cool. I think I'd really like it on a lemon shirt. Or maybe light blue.

winnie71 wrote:Its hard to explain, but your 'everyman' comments (and the design itself) make me think of Cirque Du Soleil, and the way they weave their 'off-reality' storylines.
And its probably really as much about looking neat for them, too

This is a definite buy for me. Love it.

Ahh... Cirque. I love it. They're amazing performances. I've only ever seen them on television, though. I really want to see one live. Someday... someday... And thanks for the mild comparison. It's the best compliment.

However.. yeah. Gradients are a nono, they can't be printed here.

Ah did't know that gradients can't be done. Sorry about that new to the site, and thank you for the info.

Is the bottom bun on that sandwich green or is that a pickle or something?

Conceptual originality points! Subtle colors conveying the story. And a golfer's tale no one would believe.

Thanks for the votes everyone, the bottom is another surfboard, you can see the orange fin.

So there are these scientists over in Africa somewhere and they are trying to count wildebeasts, but since they all have the same markings, it is very difficult for them to keep track of ones they have counted and which ones they have not... So in an attempt to create some difference between the different animals, they got some spray paint and would do drive bys and mark animals as they went past. They started to notice something though. Many the animals that they were marking would then promptly be eaten. It turns out that because these animals looked different than the others in the herd, preditors saw them as weak and would target them.
The point of this discussion?
Your bubble blowing fish is shark bait.
Great design BTW
+1

The thumbnail is definitely evocative.

I see the similarity in that we have monochromatic creatures. But the entries go different directions from there...and that's a good thing in each case.

This one has period piece written all over it speaking of older technology and the mystery that was much more pronounced before we had BBC, Discovery, PBS Nature, and the Cousteau franchise combing the oceans with underwater cameras. Throw in the "noone can hear you scream" factor and you've got a story going on here. Good job.

Graphix6, what editor do you use? If it is Photoshop, we might could get together some time and I can give you a few pointers so that future submissions the colors and match up and you can build on it and improve.
I do like the composition though

Databit, what type of firewall do you use?

"One that sux"

Oh, well there is no fix for that... Just put up with the double posts then.

thanks to brother dude...I see that now. I admit that i had even commented to him that I didn't think much of this shirt. I did not have the scenario of far away and then close up in mind. If worn this would work out as described so now I can recant and tell you good job as well.

Your compatriot did have a similar submission and as I stated on his design, they go different directions from there. your use of the yellow highlights is your key.
