Very clevah!

Re: results for home for the holidays

Oddly enough, my home city (village) is basically a triangle shape. Aside from the farmland surrounding, the neighborhood I grew up in makes a triangle of a 2 mile circumference.

Though this map suggests more roads than my city, my house would roughly be where the fourth marker down is.

I guess you can say this really hits home. :P

Geeky shirts = love.

Re: results for home for the holidays

I love this. I won't buy it though, people have enough trouble understanding my other Woot shirt using internet maps as a subject without getting a good, close look (you know, the "Bad Directions" shirt). I feel wearing this will yield more "Why are you wearing a Google Maps shirt?" questions, and less "Hey, nice Google Maps Christmas tree.".

maybe some parks with lovely highway ramp bows?

I think this would have looked great on the kelly green tee. Very clever.

I actually hadn't realized it was a map joke at all for the first minute I looked at it, but rather just an intriguing, quasi-abstract way of designing a christmas tree. That it also fits the map thing just makes it cooler.

Man, I really like this... but I really can't wear this shade of green shirts. I know, I know, it's green because that's a commonly found color on maps... I may vote for it anyways but I couldn't get it.

Still, I love the concept. Nice job! :D

Thank you all for the support.

I thought the non-traditional green matched the design. Grass would have worked here too. Always easy to second guess yourself.

• Congratulations on winning a Best Loser Award!
  
• This is not SPAM.
  
• Winning a BLA does NOT mean this shirt won't print -- I'm hoping it does.
  
• Your one and only gift is this crappy little badge in your shirt thread. Enjoy.
  
• Your Slayer t-shirt fit the scene just right.

I havn't commented on too many this derby because I've been busy but I just wanted to say this was a nice design and you executed it well

Re: results for home for the holidays

Thanks again for the positive feedback everyone.

What happened last week? Did your grandmother sneak in and take over your keyboards while your back was turned and vote for the safe "Home for the Holiday" t-shirt offerings that were posted last week? While smart, creative and cleaver designs like this one went unnoticed? KEEP YOUR GRADMAS AWAY FROM YOUR COMPUTERS ON VOTING DAYS!
