It's pretty common to add a lot of jazz to the preview that doesn't really appear on the shirt. I'd be happy to see them all outlawed but I doubt that will ever occur.

Re: Most adorable engagement

I love the pun! :D

Re: Carrot Mining

Such a crafty little bunny, very funny!

Re: The Shining

I love it, and yet I'd be frightened to find it looking at me when I go into my closet. :P

Re: Where It Belongs

My victory...is bittersweet!

Re: Kill It!

I truly hope this is one of the winners, you did an amazing job on the expressions and it is incredibly hilarious. Love it!

Thanks! You and Stargaziey have a fun shirt - I'm glad see the turtles are using their safety glasses : )

Re: Spring Cleaning

It's a shame this hasn't picked up more votes. The pun is fun, the style is crisp and clean. I think the only thing that feels off for me is the shirt color (not a fan of olive) and the placement of the rag - maybe it's all the cleaning ads I've seen over the years but my brain wants the spray bottle and the rag to be next to one another.

Best of luck next derby!

Re: Spring Cleaning

So simple, and yet so very fun! I keep waiting for Billy Mays to suddenly appear. :D

Re: Relaxing in Spring Showers

I love it!, very clever and amazing concept!

Great work!

He's my favorite too Thanks Zombiemilkshake!

Re: Spring Clean Sheen

Omelets made great! Thank you so much for all the comments & nice compliments everyone! I'm super happy you guys like both the concept & the design style.

I'm surprised at how much attention it's got this late in the game, & it gives me a boost of confidence to try even harder next time. Both to do my best & improve my speed. (Although, I didn't have as much time as I normally do this past weekend.)

In less than 24 hours this shirt has already surpassed the best we had done before & with another day & a half of voting to go, I'm excited to see where it will end up.

Thanks again, guys! <3

Re: My Buddies

This is just too adorable! BUDdies! X3 I'm also diggin' the off center, long design. GMV!

Re: Garden Sprites

PLEASE WIN!

Great work!

Thanks Wences!!! I dig yours this week as well!

Great shirt! Fun concept and great art! I really like how the turtles are using proper eye protection.

Great concept and execution to match. Your consistent quality with each sub is commendable.

I really appreciate the subtlety of this one. Just a green furry guy hosing out his trash can....hey that's not just any green furry guy.

Re: It's Spring-Time BABY!!!

OOoh. Woop woop...finally eeked out double digits. (rolls eyes)

Re: Bunny bonanza

I'm sorry to tell you this really doesn't fit the theme for the week. Woot is looking for designs inspired by the Spring season. Bunnies being allowed isn't a license to just sub a bunny design.
Caveat: this design looks quite tribal. If, by any chance, I've missed something, bite me (no, really!). Otherwise, nice colors and idea, just not for this derby. Try again, or try elsewhere.

That's the end of me spending actual time on these derbies. From now on it's just gonna be cutesy pokemon rip-off characters and bad internet meme puns...screw it.

Re: Relaxing in Spring Showers

Very beautiful work!

Re: The Very Hungry Robin (on Creme)

I voted gray. Cream makes me look unheathy.

Feedback, comments, & criticism are always appreciated.

And, a LINK to a larger version for you crazy cats that like that sort of thing.

Thanks! :3

This has to win! Tell your brother to keep thinking up ideas, because this idea was great!!!

Is this even on topic?

Everyone learns this lesson eventually.

Re: Awkward Picnic

XD I laughed so hard at this! Their expressions are great & the entire concept is too funny. I love the style you used on this. Great job!

Re: Fear the Bunny

Super cute! Who knew such an adorable bunny would be a cold blooded killer! :o

Re: Birdies in the spring v2.0

Brown is perfect.

Re: The Following Spring...

Heck yeah! Screw humans & our technology creating robots thus leading to our own apocalypse. Nature always wins!

The bird happily building it's nest with the remains of robots in a human skull is so morbidly adorable. ^_^ +1

Re: Out of winter, buddha squirrel springs

During the arduous winter months, squirrels hibernate and feast on their beloved hoard of nuts. (Ever notice how a squirrel risks death for an acorn while you swerve into oncoming traffic to preserve its life while risking your own? It's ludicrous! Ahem...) At the beginning of spring, the stupendous squirrels emerge. Jolly from months of hibernation, the squirrels have packed on a few pounds...

Such a depressing lesson to learn though.

Not like I expected to win this week, there's a lot of really nice designs out there, but I expected to be in the double-digits for votes on at least one of my designs before friggin' TUESDAY.

There's people that submitted random lines and squiggles that are already in the triple-digits.

At the same time there's some really dope artistic talent on display that's been stagnant for days.

Meh. Maybe I'll just start submitting dailies and forget about the derbies from here on out.

Re: This. Is. SPRING!!!

This is my first derby and entry and my first time using Illustrator (thus the rather late entry). I was hoping with this entry to get some feedback and constructive criticism to help me in shirt designing infancy.

Thanks!
-D

Re: The Rite of Spring

This is beautiful. Such a simple design & concept so wonderfully executed.

Re: Spring Cleaning

You know, your "You have to try this, guys" was my first encounter with woot shirts. A coworker wore it to work & I asked her where she got it. The rest, as they say, is history.

This is a very cute sequel. A nice way to send off the bunnies, too. Since Woot has this need to put them in a box & lock them away forever.

Re: The Weed Killer

I laughed so hard at this, the expression on the dandelion is hilarious! I can just hear it's little shrieks now. XD Oh & it carrying the little dandelion seed is priceless.

Re: Relaxing in Spring Showers

Please put this in another derby soon! I love this shirt and it probably won't win now... but I wanna buy it some day. I'll vote for it every time!

Re: What the Bark is THAT

I really, truly wish this will place. The simplicity works so well in this design. And it's great even outside of the "Spring" derby theme.
