Re: Violin Music (by pwrpufgrl - age 6)

Rejection reason number 2:

The drawing is not a Violin... It's a Guitar

Violins only have 4 strings. In this drawing there's WAY more than 4 strings, but there ARE 6 tuning knobs... The number of strings a guitar has.

Also Violins don't have the center hole that is shown on the design... They have smaller "S" shaped holes on either side of the strings. Acoustic guitars, however, DO have the hole in the center of the body.

Finally... Violin's don't make those color of notes... Those are CLEARLY the note colors of a guitar (Ok... this last one was inserted just to be humorous and to make myself look less assholeish)

Here's some images for references

Woot states that they reserve the right to reject anything that seems to be getting sketchy votes. Sadly, they've never ACTED on this, to my knowledge. And probably won't now. I hope this sells poorly enough to prove WHY they should, when it inevitably is kept around and wins.

Agreed. I'm going to be honest ... the moment I saw this I was wondering why it was in the fog. This is something I would never wear on a shirt and can't understand why people would

Re: V is for Vervet

The texture is amazing on this. I also find the blue plaid a little strange. Perhaps a green would have been a better choice, but I still think this is quite excellent.

Re: Vague Memories

Our Movie Genre... good idea... but bunnies... Really? Just had to get it in before next week right?

^^GAG^^

lovely

Re: Vintage Vacation

Love the flamingo! So important to have a flamingo lawn ornament when in an airstream!

Re: various volumes

The way this is laid out makes me think it should be worn with a big coat... you know, like those sketchy watch salesmen who open up and show their wares? only instead of watches, it'd be beakers and flasks.

Re: Vanilla Visage Resub

Muse, I'm really enjoying your work! I just got a Mucha art book for Christmas and it looks similar to a few few of his pieces, minus the standard floral accents he usually puts in.

To that point, I think vanilla orchid blooms might pump this up from a wonderfully done woman to a beautiful and complete piece.

Either way, you got my vote and my purchase.

Re: Voodoo Doll

looks like a scary gingerbread man

Re: Vampiric Vikings

want this! Vikings are our mascot.

Re: Violin to Violets

Creme would work as well, or pink, and perhaps cranberry.

Re: Flame Rising

I do like the design of the shirt, I just feel that it doesn't really fit in. The Phoenix is the main attraction to the shirt, while the volcano sits down in slumberland...

I like this one better than the vampire one

Re: Velociraptor Vitamins

Velociraptors usually stick to taking their vitamins, but sometimes they require the real thing...

Re: Vampire Vacation

Fact: Vampires love The Go-Go's.

Re: Violin Music (by pwrpufgrl - age 6)

If this prints, I will no longer come to this site. >_>

I don't know if navy would've worked, but I think powder blue could go well with this. White is nice, though. Well done! GMV

Thanks PoetaRossa, glad you like it! I did experiment with baby blue and it was nice, but preferred the white. And nice to know some people you know would love the veggie vikings too

You're right... quite a few colors did work. It was hard choosing which one! Hopefully people will like the white.

Re: World's Smallest Violin

Play the world's saddest song on the world's smallest violin, whenever the occasion may call for it

Re: Vague Memories

One word: sellout.

Re: Violin Music (by pwrpufgrl - age 6)

Okay, really? Fogged? Good lord.

Re: World's Smallest Violin

Play the world's saddest song on the world's smallest violin, whenever the occasion may call for it (but mainly when the occasion doesn't call for it).

Comes complete with teardrops, so you don't even have to fake it!

Re: Violin to Violets

I play cello, so if this prints I am obligated to purchase it as a stringed-instrument nerd. :D

Re: Vortex

That's a beautiful design man, definitely have my vote. I wish more votes went to people with good designs instead of fluffy animals and cancellation visual puns.

I just found this site awhile ago, I think it's more this style: www.designbyhumans.com

Good luck

Re: Violin Music (by pwrpufgrl - age 6)

I really think that including the child's age in the title is a cheap shot. If it wins it should be because the design is popular, not because everyone is going, "Aww, look at what the little kiddie drew." Perhaps some people like it because of the actual design, but if that is the case, the "age 6" part is irrelevant and should be left out.

That being said, it is rather adorable. I just don't think it's fair to the adults to have their butts whooped by a 6 year old because she's 6 years old. :\

Re: various volumes

I can't believe I found someone else who loves lab glassware! I totally have about 100 pieces of it for no apparent reason. Kipp's apparatus from terrific Wisconsin!

GMV, of course.

Re: Villainous Victorian Velociraptor

This is my favorite. <3 I hope it prints.

Re: Vampiric Vikings

badass, confirmed.

Re: Violin Music (by pwrpufgrl - age 6)

WOW! Look at all these harsh comments. All of you need to chill out a bit.

Keep submitting your design, people will notice one day,

hi ichogro, thankyou for noticing my design I am happy enough that you noticed it and I like your kind and helpful and positive comment .Happy new year!

nope not putting us off in the least! (not like my design! glad it got a chuckle tho!) great design! good luck!

No need to rephrase.

Re: Valhalla's Viking Warrior

i really like the placement.

Re: World's Smallest Violin

nice idea, but i dont think woot can print that high on the shirt.

Re: Vague Memories

This is the least on-topic shirt ever.

Vague? More like RANDOM.

I will be highly disappointed if Woot fails to reject this.

systemerror wrote:WOW! Look at all these harsh comments. All of you need to chill out a bit.

Trust me, even the nicest of nicies are thinking it and not saying it. This has been done in the past and people have called them out on it.
The bad thing is that once it gets a steam roll like being in the fog, now you get the votes just to see what happens if it prints.

Re: Vaudevillian Voles

So cute. Love the little fingers, and hats.

AdderXYU wrote:Ah. you're right. that dude has never used butterflies or relied on work identical to past designs

Wow, Adder. Hateful, much? I'm not saying that your point isn't valid, but couldn't you have found a way to make said point that *wasn't* laced with napalm? You really need to relax.

Re: Vampire Vendor

I'm not a big gore fan, but I really like this illustration. Nicely done. gl.
