Re: Genesis in the Mind

Not at all for me.

Re: Dawn

If this were on any color other than black I'd buy it, but I don't wear black shirts often, so I won't be voting or buying this.

Re: And the winner is... (resub)

Neh, don't like this at all.

Re: It was a dark and stormy night... (resub)

Like this one better. GMV again.

Such animosity... these Woot derbies are turning into "As the Woot Turns" ;)

It's not animosity, it's an opinion. I think this shirt stinks, and I stated such.

Re: A start to the Morning

Some people just need a little caffeine to start off their day.

Re: iFetus

Good luck w/ the copyright issues, though. I've a bad feelings woot! is going to use the Rejectorator on this one...

Re: Gonna Be Big in Japan

GMV for the description alone

Yes, this shirt reminds me of every Christmas home with my mother. I actually got a little lurch in my stomach when I saw the design. Beautiful artwork, as always tgentry. If this places, I will certainly buy it.

Instead of stating something as useless as "this shirt stinks," why don't you state specific and helpful reasons why you don't like it? Otherwise your opinion is pointless.

What pantone is the actual bolt? This looks great by the way.

How constructive. Every tried offering anything to the community?

Re: She Let Them Go

One of my favorites thus far!

this shirt is a bit 'busy'. i really preferred it without the huge glasses as she looks like a bee or something.

Hilarious! But factually inaccurate. Rainbows come from leprechauns puking. I have a sketch of this, actually. Now if only a Binge Drinking derby theme would come along, I could bust it out.

i don't know how this will actually look when printed.. something tells me, not great.

Re: Beginning Of The Wheel

maybe it's just me, but it wasn't really apparent that that thing next to him was a "wheel" until I read the title.

Re: Beginning Of The Wheel

I think it's well drawn, and obviously a wheel made by that inventive caveperson. GMV.

the problem is that while this is pretty i doubt anyone would understand what it represents from looking at it. as such, i have no desire to vote on it. i like things that look like the things they are.

a bit of a cliched concept what with the sprout and all. however, you make it work surprisingly. i do like the golden rays very much and this will be the first design voted on.

a bit risque.

Re: A Fresh Start

Cool concept but I'm not sure I would wear it. I think it's too confined. Consider spreading out the design to cover more of the surface, eliminate the rectangular frame, open it up a bit more.

Good point my feeling exactly

i knew this was your design as soon as i saw it, looks very much like the narnia one. i do love this shirt and look forward to buying it.

this looks to be the best phoenix design i've seen; that being said, -after- this derby, i hope they are banned. this is a fine send-off however.

I really did not like the style of the Narnia shirt, and when I saw the preview for this shirt I nearly didn't click on it because I thought it wouldn't impress me, either. However, the somewhat faux-distressed look works very well on this shirt - I think it might be the colors that make a difference. Even though I'm not a huge fan of the TMNT, I think I'll have to pick up one of these if it prints (and recommend it to my roommate, who *is* a big fan).

Re: It was a dark and stormy night... (resub)

ISO, this is MUCH MORE FANTISTICAL !!

you most certainly have my vote!

Put the egg in the chicken, you drank 'em both up.

Re: The epic begins

Thanks so much to everyone so far for the votes and comments. It was really fun to be able to come up with this design and remember my obsession with the turtles.

I'm seconding what others have said - simply saying "this shirt stinks" isn't helpful; it isn't even really much of an opinion, really.

I'm still loving the surreal aspects of this shirt - the more I look at it, the more I find; the more I find, the more I have to think about; the more I have to think about, the more ways I can discover to interpret this shirt. Love it.

Re: צְּפַרְדֵּעַ: and it rained frogs

a woot-friendly version of the old story. it represented the beginning of peace. i think. i'm not really that into religion, but i seem to remember the raining of the frogs being one of the first things done to bring peace. anywas, i like to look at it. so, you know...that's that.

this is scary.
