Haha...didn't even think about the fact that it'd be a regional hit!

"Gulf Coast shirt sales increased 14.3% today on news that a hurricane themed design was released by shirt.woot"

LOL

Haha...no problem. I don't fully subscribe to the theory myself, but it's fun to think about.

I just really wanted to do a shirt for this derby without making a cheesy cut-away. Not that I'm dissing the rest of the entires - there are some really dope shirt designs - just that I didn't want to draw something that was so similar to everything else.

Re: how ice cream works.

I think this is grotesquely awesome! The design is clean and dynamic, very good work. Looking forward to more submissions from you!

Re: Physical attraction

I logged in just to vote this shirt. I havent logged into woot for over a year.

Bravo.

thanks so much!

Re: how ice cream works.

Where the off-center placement may turn off some people, for me it's a plus! This design is insane (in a good way) and the placement only adds to my appreciation.

Thanks again. I just wish I had finished the design a little earlier. It seems like submitting late Sunday was a little too late.

[quote postid="3912205" user="rogerrogerroger"]ice cream maintains its delicious flavor by means of a complex cardiovascular system.

Sorry, I just don't grasp how a complex cardiovascular system maintains the flavor of ice cream. I see you've put the two together in an illustration, but the interaction between its cool and unctuous exterior and its entrails doesn't make sense. Is the ice cream input or output? As I consume the exterior do I shrink the interior?
Isn't it more likely that ice cream maintains its delicious flavor because of little buds of buttercream, picked by elvish folk and stuffed into a hopper that feeds a hydraulic cannon that spews that delicious coating onto a scoop-shaped armature?
I mean, that's what's behind my ice cream.

Ahh... I see now. It wasn't very clear in the smaller images that the strokes were supposed to look like chalk.

no no...i think you miss the point. its a DOUBLE scoop.

So what? How many of those 18 are in the fog or close to the fog? Why are people complaining so much about the no no bunny rule when there is only one that is even close to the fog? If you don't like them, don't look at them and don't vote for them. It's a very simple concept.

As for this shirt, I don't think it's on topic personally. This shows how the bunnies are made not how they work and therefore it should be rejected. But we know how that goes. The whole blue thing doesn't look very good, especially when the shirt is blue. Halftones and stressing were not needed also.

will do thanks!!

Re: How Are Rainbows Made.

Really funny design, TYH - I would love to see someone purchase this shirt for their kid and send him off to school in it!

Birdsong

In what I find to be an extremely weak derby this is pretty awesome. I dont't think the gray you used accurately depicts that actual shirt color (i'm sure that is a super annoying comment as it would bother me but i really don't think that is the shirt color)

a great show really...which is why i kinda love this shirt- very funny...

Ah... thank you. I've never watched the modern Doctor Who. Only watched the old one when I was a kid but don't really remember much of it.

Re: Got Honey?

Yeah, I figured you meant "hunny." I agree that the pattern in the background is a bit weird if you intended it to be honeycomb. Otherwise I think it's great! Maybe resub with the typo fixed and a background with actual honeycomb pattern?

Re: Stephenie the Vampire Slayer

Haha, very clever. I hate Twilight. Nice shirt, but sorry, I'm just voting for "How are books made?".

So very metal - completely irresistible.

Re: Birdsong

Someway or another, this should definitely print!

Just a coincidence.

lol. feedback.

lol I like your style, but I wouldn't buy the shirt because I don't like the idea. For a strange idea, it was very well executed though.

This could also be how Lucky Charms are made, har.

Re: Stephenie the Vampire Slayer

JEEZE, that's just funny as hell... You just woke up my roommate... THANKS.

Not only is it brilliant but the color scheme is dynamic and beautiful in a haunting way. If this goes on sale I may buy two just so I can make sure I can wear it for a long time to come.

Especially for double slit fans.

Re: how quantum physics works

I'm uncertain about this one.

Re: How Are Books Made?

I love this shirt. It HAS to print. O_o

And is it just me or does it remind anyone else of the tree in that old kids book 'Caps For Sale'?

Re: The Speak and Spell

Love it, I was just talking about hus voice vs. See and Say this weekend, how I wish I was wearing this shirt!

Stargaziey, paigeg, and eye4spot,

Thanks for the encouragement and nice comments.

I almost made a 3rd frequency tube, but I was concerned I wouldn't leave myself enough space for the text.

Thanks again!

Re: Epic Failure

All hail the geekness factor! That is one vindictive little dragon. Then again, if people kept rolling me around, I'd want revenge too. (Anyone notice most of my votes have been going to dragons?)

I don't know if it's just my computer, but I've got no shirt image here. Only the thumbnail next to the huge empty space with the little red x.
