Shirt.Woot

Funny how all posts after 1:30amish are gone until about 4am. Including my mention of irritation at the price change. Not only has Amazon changed quality and price but now they're censuring the comments of wooters.

This is intentional, allowing us to contribute to the art with our own 9th fish. Better buy 3 in case it doesn't look right the first time ;)

Oops double-post. I blame Woot's servers. Anyway I'm in, awesome shirt.

Did I detect a "Dr. Farnsworth" opening in the write-up? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1D1cap6yETA

Anyway, another example of the exceptional skills of Mr. Spens. Congrats, sir on a well deserved print.

Just for you. The rest of us still see $10.

Only if you get sweaty lol

Honestly this is a really beautiful piece. I get to call it a "piece" now because it's really artsy fartsy LoL. Seriously beautiful.

Koi fish kinda freak me out. Anyone else imagine them swimming past your legs or sucking on your skin?

I have started only voting for shirts in the derby that I know I will buy and wear, and this was the only one in the fog this week I voted for. Congrats! And in for one.

Oh, Patrick. Why so awesome? I don't think I've seen anything you've done I haven't liked (or loved), and this is no exception.

Love this. I'd buy it for $10.

Would it be in poor taste to wear this to a Sushi Bar?

Where's the one that swims in the opposite direction? There's always at least one...


Lovely design. I adore koi fish.

What fabric is the shirt made of?

I really really dig the design, but white tees are not my cup of tea. Ugh I'm so bad...

this will look amazing framed.

Probably, since this was drawn in a Chinese style and sushi is Japanese.

Beautiful design. I'm glad it nabbed first place.

I could see it working on Creme. I will continue to mourn the dearth of good creme shirts, but I still bought this--excellent work!

100% cotton, made in the USA.

I am really, very, super happy that there is finally an off-center design being printed. To make it better, it's such a good one!

Nope you're not the only one

Hahaha! Well said.

Loved this from the moment I saw it in the derby.

Alas, I don't wear t-shirts much anymore. Thinking of buying this in a 3X and mounting it on foam/hanging it or maybe turning it into a dress somehow. Since I usually wear WS, I wonder if 3X would be too big and the print might get lost in folds...

I think shirt.woot should start offering V necks, if they did I would buy a lot more shirts, just saying

No that has been going on long before the Amazon buyout. You probably didn't notice because this is your first experience with it. Anything the mod-of-the-day doesn't like gets deleted.

I know I am being picky but why does the design placement state "right side" when its on the left side of the actual shirt?

Your restraint is admirable.



Meantime, for all the "$10"/price increase comments, let's direct those totally this way.

(*sigh*) I finally gave and and bought one. BEAUTIFUL shirt!!! (Maybe I can store it in one of my husband's drawers?!?!?!)

You would -never- know this was crafted from just six colors. Technical excellence.

There were a lot of people who were hating on the white shirts. What's wrong with them? Too see through? Then wear an undershirt.

This shirt rocks, and the fact that it's a white shirt makes it better - the design would fall flat on a different color.

Late

Gorgeous! Love it! Bought one! Thank you Patrickspens!

I turned my computer screen around to face my aquarium and the fish did their "happy dance." My interpretation of fish-speak..... BUY IT!

This is spot-on with the Watercolor theme Patrick, especially considering it's done digitally. The overlapping transparent layers match the style and really suit the subject matter.
Can't say I understand the backlash against white shirts. It's not like we have one every day of the week and as a canvas it really allows artists to do some great things that don't work on other base colours. One of my favourite Woot shirts, Colors of a Feather, is on white.

i always freak out when i'm wearing oriental or asian-inspired stuff and someone suggests going to a japanese restaurant. i don't want them to make fun of me in the kitchen

i mean, seriously — i'm that paranoid.

but i bought this right away. so even less sushi for me, i guess!

Sorry I'm a little behind on the shirt.woot price increase. But, why did they raise the price? Yeah, it's only $2, but why? 40 some shirts later, I finally noticed.
