Shirt.Woot

Running a second one colour derby so soon after the first while bringing the double-take derby forward has me wondering if there is something holding up printing or production behind the scenes.

I have no cause to complain though. Detailed pop free designs seems to be where my thinking goes. Look out for a heavily detailed, obscure idea that still comes in late because I don't know when to say enough.

I think what maybe got her was that gray field in the comp. I at first thought 2 colors until I looked closer.

I concur

I've been wondering the same thing. Between these two "easy to print" derbies, an early "Double Take" (whose designs they could have had time to work on), the VERY light moderator coverage during the derbies, really simple dailies, and the production issues with recently printed T's, my Six Sigma senses have been screaming "Behind the scenes issues" for a little while now.

FWIW, my copy of Wishful Thinking was spot on.

cause i NEED this darn shirt to print

Oh yes that's my one shirt for the derby! So it should be back for votes! YAY, people remember!

His first submission since the rules changed

THIS was his submission for Gold which came before the last derby. A Sunday sub and I missed it.

All I wanted to eat every single day growing up as a child was Mac & Cheese. So, obviously that shirt would suit me best. ;-)

Will shirts that win from the Gold Derby still be printed in gold metallic ink? That seems like a deal-breaker for my votes if not.

Will the Double Take use the new selection process? If so, who is the guest editor?

Might be a silly question - but when you say "halftones, dot, line or other" - can an image have i.e. a single line for an outline, with crosshatching inside?

I'm fine with one colour, no halftones etc - just wanted to know if I am allowed an outline or not.

Cheers

See the last crosshatch derby for examples on what they deemed acceptable last time around: http://shirt.woot.com/derby/archive/174/crosshatch

Just over 100 votes separating 1st to 10th place. A close race for those who were in it, but no designs that ran ahead of the pack as far as voter popularity goes.
