Hello again Groowalla. Sorry for the delayed reply. We all kind of pulled an all-nighter last night as my sister delivered a healthy baby girl early this morning (her first child, welcome to the world Isabella!). If you reply and I don't get back to you right away it is because we are getting some shuteye.

Aside from the option I mentioned in my PM, I will look into setting up an account on cafepress or etsy (I do not yet have that set up). I am just getting back into the design world after a bit of a hiatus and, while testing my hand on woot, I am also trying to explore these other options.

By the time the woot non-compete time period is up in early November, one or more of these options will definitely be available and I will surely get back in touch with you to see if you still might be interested once we are ready to go. Thanks again for the great feedback. Talk to you soon.

Groowalla,
Sorry, I just realized I had sent the private message to thesmath who had asked a similar thing and not to you (sleep deprivation does funny things to the brain). I will send you the same message though now. Sorry for the confusion and thanks again.

I wish i knew more ppl to vote for it because I think this is the best design by far... if there is anyway of getting this shirt another way, let me know please! Thanks and great job, its fantastic

Hello hup440,

Thank you so much for such great feedback. Hearing your kind words really makes me feel good and they are very much appreciated. Thanks as well for your offer to purchase it via another route if it does not get printed by woot (that looks more than likely to be the case).

Woot has exclusive rights to the design for 60 days (well, actually about 55 days now) so I am unable to do anything with it until about the beginning of November. I do actually have plans for it at that time if this does not get named as an honorable mention.

To elaborate on my plans, I am in touch with another online shirt/apparel company who has already offered to sell the Maori Love Birds design. If this does not get named by Woot as an honorable mention and does not appear in a do-over derby, it will definitely be printed by either that company or via another outlet such as cafepress. I do not yet have an account there but plan on setting one up which would open up the product line a bit to items such as prints.

I will keep record of our message and will contact you in early November to see if you might still be interested. In the meantime, please feel free to contact me with any questions, comments, or concerns, or just to chat. As I have already mentioned, it was great to receive your feedback and I am quite happy with the positive response this design has received. Thanks again. Talk to you soon and take care.

thanks so much! and be sure i will! still trying to decide on where to put them. i've new to this type of thing (online stores) and i'm trying to get as much information as i can before making my choice.

If you look, many other shirt 600px templates have this same color. It very closely matches the woot shirt I own that's kelly. I think what program the person uses affects the comp- I use photoshop but if you use something like GIMP it might give a different hue since you have to convert the PSD to a JPEG for submittal.

Just for noisdois - Woot updated the template colours sometime ago. Scurvy started long before that happened, so that comp looks different.

Skek - the kelly shirt I just got more closely matches the updated colour. And WOW, congratulations on soaring to the top ten!

Yes!! Please do!

Re: Luau Angel

I think this is absolutely stunning. I'm not sure why the drama came into play in the first place.

thanks. I guess that's the way it goes. I guess there's always next time.

Just my thoughts.

Re: Tiki God (Not Happy)

Last ditch effort for votes..would like to get at least 20, will make me feel better, but then again, this was done in a very quick fashion and if I had the time it would have been sooo much better.

Toe- Check out Robert's Bestloser site. He has a lot of good information comparing print qualities etc. from places like Spreadshirt, Bountee, Cafepress and more. Could be useful to you.

I'd also love to know what you do with this design.

Re: Who keeps drinking my Mai Tai?

I think I tried to comment here a few days ago, but it was lost in the reboot and brought me back when I restored last web sessions. Does this make sense? Do you know where I am? Probably moreso than I know where you are. Howdy y'all!

Just came back from Wal-Mart. No hibiscus shirts.

Nobody has that kind of time. I am interested in your input for future endeavors. Advice and guidance from an experienced t-shirt designer is always appreciated.

Thanks, DigitalDonkey. Interesting name, too.

Re: Black Flowers

Totally wearable... I would def. buy and wear with pride. Got my vote!

Sayah doesn't have time to do quality original work. He doesn't even have time to create original fake names ;) He's too busy being a general troll and commenting on his own thread, or else telling people they got his vote despite his posting on a no-vote account. You can't expect an all around winner like that to put EFFORT in!!!

Re: Tikki, Tikki, T-Ivy...

Ahhh love it. Apart from the great colors and design, it's a breath of fresh air to see a submission not digitally drawn, kinda gives the whole piece a more artistic quality to me. Best of luck

Re: Tiki Beast from 50 Fathoms

i want this soooooooooooo bad! excellent!

Re: Tikki, Tikki, T-Ivy...

Glad to see this made it in time to get a bestloser nod. I had already submitted my nominees to Robert. (I think I had 7 favorites this week.) But, after submitting the list, I saw this one and really loved it. The colors, the linework and the fit to the theme were all great. I especially like that it was on orange and that wasn't the first thing I noticed about the design, but rather the last. Meaning that even if the shirt color isn't one of your favorites, a great design can convince you that you love the shirt regardless of the color.

Hopefully you'll let us know what you do with this design in the future.

Please do, because this is AWESOME!

Re: The Pig Fights Back

Lets get this back in the fog!

Excellent! Congrats on the niece, I'm (only slightly) jealous as I'm surrounded by baby nephews these days. Enjoy this time, it races by!

I'll be looking out for your work. Thanks very much.

Re: The Pig Fights Back

This shirt rocks!
