Re: viral video theater 3000

I'm so glad someone else did this. I was thinking on doing it myself, but didn't know how to do it at all. If only we had more mst3k fans...(here's to hoping)

I don't believe these cats are either.

Nothing will change my stance on that...and I've found some interesting information that really brings something about all of this to light.

I won't be saying anything else about any of this. This is a good design that can stand on its own without needing my help defending it any further.

Re: Cats With Weapons

Love this

You ninja'd me! I do think it's a good design.

Copy+paste:

Again, I didn't say that using the cats was a bad thing at all. You're right and I agree with you - animals are more popular than people. It works. I still think that the crayons have a stronger concept, but that's just me.

Or he is complimenting himself.

Re: The Big Question

That's still considered text.

Re: Who's profile?

And is that a thumbs-down I see?

really?

re: viral video theater 3000

This is a great idea but will probably be rejected for its use of text and the fact it's only "loosely" based on mystery.

AdderXYU wrote:Except crayons are already colors. That is a logical parody. These are cute animals playing dress-up. Well drawn cute animals playing dress-up, but there's no reason for them being cats, while there is every reason for them to be crayons. Please tell me you understand the difference?

And they're not lolcats. they're cats.

They aren't lolcats. That was an implication that someone other than the artist created. But I have to ask you AdderXYU, are you familiar with this drink? You must drink a lot of it.


I ask because the feeling I get from you by reading your posts on Woot is that you are attempting to be satirical in hopes that Woot will become a better shirt site, but deep down you've given up hope and don't think it could get better because there's no need for them to change anything because they are making money anyway and the mass of Woot members don't notice how bad the place is--you're the only one intelligent enough to get all this and the true intentions of Woot.

The reason for using cats is needless to know. Who ever said a parody needed a reason? Things don't need a reason, Mr. Logical, especially not art. Even if the cats were used to get more votes, it's justifiable because why would one hold back an idea that will get a lot of votes and buyers?

Just as a side note, no parody really is necessary. As long as we're talking about necessities, other than plain solid Tees, almost no T-shirt is necessary either. But thousands of these unnecessary shirts are made and sold every day. Why then, if they are unnecessary, do they sell? Because people don't buy only on necessity; they buy things they want. So why does this shirt have Cats on it? Because people want them and the artist knew that.

not to mention use of copyrighted characters and a trademarked logo

Well...I know now, and I still love it. ;-)

Re: Black Dahlia

The Black Dahlia was the victim in a famous murder case in Los Angeles in 1947. It has never been solved.

Re: What Happened to Steve?

don't be fooled - Joe framed Blue!

Who needs a thesaurus?

Edit: Yaaaaarrrgghhhhh!!!

On a serious note, I'm merely going for the idea of HOW this whale got to its present state, hence the title. If someone knows, then it wouldn't be a mystery, would it?

Uh, no. I think that's a pipe.

That was Adder's initial point.

cobolisdead wrote:If this isn't be a certain artist, then its a dang good imitation of his style.

Agreed. Made me think of exactly who I was supposed to when I saw it. Either it is, or it isn't, but it is sneaky. And a darn good print, IMHO.

Re: Bad News Bears

Absolutely love the bears! (But I look awful in red...GMV anyway.)

Re: The Mystery Behind the Mask

And smaller, and maybe off to one side. Good god it's huge (she is reported to have said that)!

I'll post again to say I'm satisfied with this. I just mainly didn't like the implication that this design was pandering, but really, that wasn't from you anyway.

Here's the real mystery of the design:
why would a cat kill a mouse and not eat it? XD

hoho a giant space heater heating up the Earth, I like it.

When I saw the thumbnail, I thought this was going to be a search for Goldilocks.

i saw the movie too

Re: Big Foot: Case Closed

How many colors is this?

godslinger wrote:That's still considered text.

i guess when they said no text, what they meant was "unless it is giant text"

Re: Whooo Are You?

This design is pretty neat. I think your thumbnail doesn't do it justice and I almost didn't even bother clicking to see the full shirt.

Re: A tribute to mummy mysteries

Ooooooh! spooky. I don't really get the moon part though, if that is what that symbol thingy is supposed to be...

I think Mister Green and Miss Peacock are about to fight it out for him.

Re: Man In The Shadows

Who is hiding behind the lamppost? Is it a spy or something more terrible? This shirt is full of mystery, but you will probably never figure it out. Unless you are walking through the park, staring into all the lampposts. But by then, he may be gone.

cobolisdead wrote:I think Mister Green and Miss Peacock are about to fight it out for him.

lol, you're right! I didn't notice that.

Re: A tribute to mummy mysteries

The mummy's face is definitely the best part. Not sure if the shirt color is the best. Seems to detract from the cave-like look you seemed to be going for.

ive always wanted a mask for my genitals. although i think the "nose" of the mask should definitely be longer

cobolisdead wrote:I think Mister Green and Miss Peacock are about to fight it out for him.

Details like that are exactly why this is the best design this week so far

Also, major props on Mr Green- you did an awesome job of stretching the 6 ink colors to look like a lot more.

cobolisdead wrote:How many colors is this?

I count six.

White
Green
Dark Green
Tan
Orange-Brown
Red

agreed. but i also wish it was on brown. or some other color.

boots? GMV

Re: Hidden Nature

Hidden Nature: This is my idea of nature that is intertwined and hidden at the same time. Making it a mystery. Look closely and tell me what you see.

agreed, perhaps heather gray? i don't know.
hmm, now that is a mystery, hahaha

Clever and well-drawn. Best "clue" entry, IMO.
