Shirt.Woot

Not really my thing, and I'm sure there are scads people have on their short list that woot should print, but this one feels like a good first day of EC week.

I'm thinking this is the visualization of the saying "too far in the forest to see the trees".

what's next? a dreamcatcher?

AWESOME! An editors choice edition! I SHALL OBEY THE ALL MIGHTY WOOT!

You really have to see the shirt for the threads.

Must have been one trippy bird.

Shirts like this prove why there should be an editors choice after every derby... at least one.

I love this design. I'm glad it got a second chance because it deserved the print the first time around.

Not the forest-related BSWeber design I had my fingers crossed for, but I'm not complaining.

This is a lovely shirt, with a really creative sense of perspective.

I'm such a fan of designs that seem to "extend inward" beyond the shirt itself, and this is a great example of that.

All I see is a feather or a quill pen. This is intended right?

Is there something significant about this shirt beyond being a cool design? The write up has me thinking I'm missing something.

edit: oh, someone said it's a feather. And there it is. Nifty.

I was just thinking that the other day, that every derby should have an editor's choice. at least one.

congrats to you bsweber! looks like your first print I think!

I can't see it.

Me too.

Great editor's choice pick!

Very nice! Glad I got a chance to get this one!

But First Sucker has a much wootier feel to it than a boring first place! Congratulations on your lucrative string o' suckers!

Great EC pick! You're already off to a better start than the last round of editor's choices.

I was just thinking, "who would wear a shirt that looks like an artsy lady part?"

Then I read the description and decided this wasn't for me...

I see the two images intended in the design, but where are these stylized lady parts the write up says might be in there? THATS what I dont get....

Great choice, WOOT!

grats on the print! nice work

I think the moon's winking at me as I sit and stare at the vista. Very nice for the rainy night that it is out there. Restful and energizing both; I like that.

I never saw the feather until today! Always thought it was just a landscape through the trees. Now I see I was remiss in not BLA-ing this. Great choice Woot! Maybe a buy too...

A forest that flocks together, becomes a feather together.

Half the buildings in any major metropolitan area are basically artsy male parts. A t-shirt is kind of mild by comparison.

Reminds me very much of Kakashi from Naruto.

The coloring reminds me of New Zealand. The feather of a giant bird reminds me of Sesame Street and Woot just reminded my why I look forward to EC's. Congratulations bsweber.

Crap! All I saw before reading the write up was a landscape within a feather. Now I see...something else too. Thanks a lot Woot!

Same here!! Now I can hardly believe I missed it...!

Congrats!

This is a great use of negative space, although I don't quite understand the correlation between a feather and a river from the mountain.

He's been staring at that hidden eye thing all week...

Oh look, it's a ship, with some dolphins playing in it's wake.

Why must all these great shirts be black? I have a cat so black fabric = Super duper hair collector.

Even a dark grey would work,

What a great shirt.

It makes me think of Minecraft...

I think the correlation is "it looks pretty damn cool".

Obviously, BSWeber hates cats. :P

Fantastic write up. Even on the days I don't buy, the description is always worth it.

Usually when I'm tickling something with a feather and I look up, there are "mountains".

And yes, a river.
