Notably, this one also by ramyb, rejected because it was too similar to this.

ramy's Mayflower Mayhem was clearly executed much better, but it was still rejected due to similarities.

Food for thought.

I totally understand that different people can have the same idea when it comes to a particular theme, hence the reason why I didn't scream bloody murder when I saw your design and run quickly to tattle. People are to busy trying to get their designs done and posted, rather than checking the derby constantly to see if anyone else had a similar idea. It is only those who purposefully see someone else's idea and "copy" it that pose a problem. But even then, if they can feel good at night knowing they did that, well then fate will intervine at some point.

....and I thank you kindly :P

I like the graphic... it's just a bit too big for my teeshirt wearing tastes. Good idea though!

Well if theres enough demand for it, moving it is no problem by me. I was actuallly considering having it in the upper right corner of the shirt but didn't want to do that again cuz I did that last derby.

I do like the subtle coloring, and the blockiness... very nice.

Re: Sounds like Treble

As a former band geek, I will need this shirt!

Thread hijack.

Can anyone tell me what Woot was first offering as 'prize' monies when they initially opened? And the time line for the progression of change?

Many thanks.

I know I shouldn't, but I couldn't help but vote for this

$200, then $500 by about october, and eventually $1000, where it has remained for about a year.

Re: Sounds like Treble

this is a great design...rooting for you in the fog...

That is very true! He'll have to remember that on his next flight... : )

Re: Transmission: Radio Star

i LOVE this one!!!!! I'm a radio dj and i would wear this to work everyday. two very enthusiastic thumbs up!

Re: [url=http://shirt.woot.com/Derby/Entry.aspx?id=29901]Guitar

Saw the other one that's similar, but this one rocks. I'm not even a particular fan of star wars, but I definitely have been harboring a crush on Harrison Ford for some years... GMV

jasneko wrote:I like this, but where is the violin's bow?

It's not a violin, it's a cello...and I didn't really think it needed a bow. it would have just been lying on the ground next to it.

kevout wrote:While I'm sure this won't make the top 3, I have to say that I love it. My dad and older brother are both low brass players (sousaphone, baritone, tuba - they do it all), and I started off on the cello, so this shirt would be absolutely perfect for us. Kudos!

lol there has always been this band vs orchestra rivalry, at least for me...this just brings that to mind for me

databit wrote:The one I submitted has not been rejected... Does that make me winner?

Oh, wait... what war?
We worked together on these.

If "Don't Fret" stays ahead of all of Infobyte's shirt ideas, then "yes" you win.

thanks! it looks like this one is a pretty distant 4th place but the support means a lot!

speaking of crystallize, I'm probably going to print that in the next week or two

Re: Where's Everybody Going? (resubmitted)

I like the changes, and the shirt color. It just gives it a more polished look I feel. Hopefully you at least get your old votes back. And yeah, definatly keep in mind clever uses of all 6 colors on future shirts. (Even if you want minimal color, try using a color for shading etc.)

this one is sweet.
i hope it makes the top 3

Re: Soothing Raindrops

I love this shirt! It reminds me of the book Cloudy with the Chance of Meatballs

how do you know no1 listens to music in all forms, he might have an ipod. but cerealy I don't like this one the most. doesn't say music to me says grass growing by some thow away headphones.

Re: Music Pirate (resub)

love pirates , hate this design. I want to tell people I love music, not steal it.

if it were really an apple endorsement, the headphones would certainly be white.

That link is HILAAAARIOUS!!!

Re: Where's Everybody Going? (resubmitted)

Oh, and you MIGHT want to consider adding your design to you Sig. Which can be found under "My Account"

The format goes something like this:

<><><>Please Vote
<><><>

For this design:

Please Vote


:just copy and paste that.

Re: Let go

man, I don't like anything in the fog now please people. unvote so the good stuf can make it in.

Re: Electronica

yuk already .

Yay, finally someone I can agree with! Well said.

EDIT: I just saw another one. Good to know I'm not the only one that feels that way. Thanks!

That link is prime real estate for backing up pretty much my every last comment about woot's customer base.

Re: Raindrops Keep Fallin'

... I'm not really digging how the "rain" just suddenly comes from one chunk of the staff... wish it was blended better
other than that, it is fantastic!

Thanks for you comment and your vote. You have mine as well.

Look again.

Lol, The Matrix was the second DVD I had that I obsesively watched over and over again. It was only second to Bring It On. Lollll.

As for the design, I wish I had thought of it first! It's simply yet it captures a large audience. GMV!

I like the concept, and the figures are clean and appealing, but the grey spots? I don't get their role in the picture, and the 'squared' sides of the one bottom right is distracting.

Re: Music is My Rainbow

I think this is super cute.

riffmaster18 wrote:I quite enjoy making electronic music, this is inspired by the creation from software to speakers. The city outline is Detroit, home of one of the biggest electronic music festivals in the world.

The reason I like electronic music so much is that it transcends what people assume is techno... we find it in everything from Dance to Hip Hop to Indie to Metal and everything in between.

DEMF heck yeah! I went to WEMF last year.

I try to play violin, and I raise honeybees.

She could easily use one of her antenna as a bow!

Re: Music is My Rainbow

this is rather lovely!

re: frog mosh!

In two months, this will definetly get reupped on another shirt site... such a pitiful showing this week. I much more prefer topics that aren't so generic and over-used. Half of therse designs could have easily been created forever ago. I like a theme that you know people where scrambling to create something (off the cuff) and within 24-48 hours... Not something created in a visual commications class, etc.
