Shirt.Woot

Re: with a... HERRING!

I love the shirt but I'm going to have to point out that that this appears to be not an electric herring as is so claimed, but a gasoline powered herring! (I see no cord for the electricity.) The gasoline powered model is not as friendly to the trees it is felling, but at least one doesn't have to lug along a gasoline powered generator and an extension cord to power said electric herring. For your penance you must bring me... A SHRUBBERY!!!

Re: We ALL know someone who needs one

I would give this shirt to someone I know and push that button with my fist, .....REPEATEDLY!
I bet it works, too!

Also, I think some portions of this argument have been covered pretty darn well so perhaps it's time to move on?

Agreed.

Damn. This makes me lose the game, too. Now I'm off to ruin everyone else's lives.

But if you redo this one and it wins, I'm totally getting it just to make people lose the game.

Re: Face to Face 2.0

haha. LOVE it.

I need to know you secret on creating the awesome halftones. Teach me great one. teach me.

Re: Face To Face

I love this design. IMO, it's certainly "on topic", since all inventions are people's way of using what they have to solve a need. And, yes, a "method" is an invention. You can invent non-tangible devices. This wonderful creation the Internet is nothing but a method of transferring information from one point to another. The people at CERN, accredited with inventing the Internet did not invent harddrives, or silicon chips.

I digress. But omarfeliciano,again great design. Along with you resub, I only wish I had come up with it first. Haha. kudos.

I thought this was Ctrl + X at first.

Re: Keep 'em Flying

I love the old-school propaganda feeling of this one. Deserves more votes. Tidy.

Re: Tele Scope

Love your shirt and I think each person could find meaning in this design. Good work expo.

Your chibi style is getting chubbier. Chubbychibi ftw!

Re: Quantum Levitation

I love this one :D voted for it. n.n

The invention is the mustache trimmer. This is an ad for the trimmer. Look at all those happy customers! :D

It says "soup thermometer" in red, and next to the thermometer it says "perfect". The stuff at the bottom is too small for me to see, unfortunately :P

Re: Soup Thermometer

In red it says "soup thermometer", and next to the thermometer it says "perfect". The stuff at the bottom is too small for me to see, but what little I can read is "bowl clip", "sound", and "cute".

I'm a dog person but would totally buy this because the cat's expression is just perfect! "I Monster A-Go Go (1965) in me drawers! (Triumphant meow)"

Re: Face to Face 2.0

I like the absurdity of this version. Nice revision!

Re: Hedgehog Washer

I love his expression of "WOO! PUMPKINS! VIOLATED!" while he's in the washer.

Re: Duo-cles

The only thing that could make this better is if he were twirling his mustache in that "musing-over-my-evil-genius-plans" sort of way. I'm still in for one though.

Something to think about.

I'm pretty sure something along the same lines of dividing by zero would happen.

Re: pop the top muffin machine

I adore this and have voted! Hope you win! :D

Re: Pet-O-Matic

This is the best one by far

If it's anything like the electric trimmers and hedge clippers I have, there are no cords; only a male receptacle for one to plug the extension cord into.

Re: Super Shiny

clever, beautiful. Looks great on tee. GMV.

I have to say, I was expecting your ''butterfly'' on last derby to win, but it didn't happen. Too sad

Re: Coffee Detector

This would be so cool if it were real! Never order decaf and get caf and not know it until 4 in the morning and can't sleep!

Thanks for all of the kind comments, everyone. You guys have figured out the text correctly, although I can't remember the exact wording I used. I was expecting if I made any goofs with the characters, it would be pointed out in the comments and I could tweak them. Looks like they're OK though (although it's a pretty moot point since there's no way this one finishes top 3).

"bazinga" to the rejection.

Thanks. We can't let the terrorists win... wink, wink*

I am flattered! I started participating in the derby 5 months ago, by then I knew nothing about creating and using halftones. I just did my research and I've been teaching myself how to. But believe me, I still have a long way to go.

I'm glad you liked it, I really like yours.

Re: Your dog is barking...

My grandma actually had something like this. The intended purpose was for it to go off when the doorbell did, but instead it just went off when her dog did (whether there was someone at the door or not)

bah ... Regardless ... The shirt was supposed to be funny ... I'm sorry some people found it offensive ... this was my first crack at designing a woot shirt ... i'm sure i'll have many more offensive ones to come.

Thank you for your feedback!
I am glad this didn't get rejected for crude humor, I tried to make it tastefull. Well as far as this joke could be tastefull. As for the text I am not sure what happened with that. It is the same text, size, ect. as the last entry. Hummm... I will look into that. Again thank you for replying to me.

Re: PayPhone Phinder App

This color scheme just doesn't click with me, but I love the idea.

Re: Soup Thermometer

Robbie, I think if you had added "Soup Thermometer" in English to the shirt, it would have had more votes. I am used to explaining my woot shirts anyway, but this needed a little more help. You have the English along the side of the comp; perhaps that could have been added to the shirt as well.
