Re: Forget the Toys, I Want the Moon.



this kinda reminds me of a children's book i really liked as a kid, Papa Please Get the Moon for Me by Eric Carle. I still have that book +1

Re: almost dead



Probably one of the most unoriginal designs in this derby.

And sorry to parrot, but your design last week wasn't very creative if you ask me and looked rushed. TXT-REX. So what?

Re: Almost A Legend



Deadfrog, I understand your defensiveness when people come at you like this. However, I think the argument is still valid. It seems all of your submissions are rips on video game characters or themes.

Plus, I'm sure it doesn't garner you any addition votes when you're a jackass.

Re: Close, but...



The red came out ridiculously red in these pics. It is much more subdued in Illustrator.

I just wish you hadn't ODed on the stroke feature.

I knew it was a slinky.

Just to offer my opinion, I think the design would rock more if the dotted "trail" hopped from step to step rather than being straight. Of course I understand that looking dead on, it's straight - I just think the hops would make me like it even more. Also might clue stupid people in to the fact that it's a slinky ;)

re: ben franklin just about discovers electricity



Wow, I am literally formatting for upload the same idea as we speak. Great minds, eh?

That being said, I like the texture of your clouds.

Re: Hare Trumps Tortoise- The True Story



Not for me. And I'm wondering why you ditched your style to make the finish line too.

This is really nice but I agree with the possibility you'll get rejected due to the wrap around. I think it'd look really awesome printed like that, though.

This turned out really great, Boots! I always love your color palettes. I didn't mind the center placement, but this rocks.

Ouch, I wasn't trying to be mean. I really am sorry if anyone is offended. I admit that all of my submissions (at least the ones that get enough votes to get noticed) contain pop culture references. It's a crutch.

I think this is a good idea, and the I like the clean, colorful style... however, I think this would mostly appeal to people who actually have solved/tried to solve it, so guess it would have been better if it were more true to an 'almost' solve for it. I don't find it offensive though, just my 2 cents(:

This turned out great! I personally liked the navy better, but the royal does give it that nifty 80's feel.

I'm really curious to know what other designs in this derby you think merit the spot more. Because I'm just not seeing them.

Help me out guys! I am still wet behind my Woot! ears. This is my second derby. Am I able to upload a new picture with a more centered design into this derby entry or do I have to resubmit a new deal all together? Hopefully the "Penguin Ban" will not apply here. I drew penguins all night!

Very cute! What's going on with the little back penguin, is he burping bubbles or something?

Re: It Almost Fits Really Good


I thought this was one of the Bananas in Pajamas before I saw the tentacles. Sorry, it's not very cute or funny. The octopus looks rather horrifying, really.

Re: Almost Dawn


Even though I absolutely loathe vampires in all their forms (excepting Noseferatu), the design for this shirt is amazing. The scratchiness really conveys "desperation" to me, and I love the placement.

Voted.
