Damn, wootvan, I just ate! Yeccchh!

What's the link for the template to use?

Well crap...

Back to the drawing board.

I have two ideas so far....a spiral of cleaning supplies and a clock with my daily chores on it...any input?

Didn't think I would enter this one but had an epiphany (lightning has struck my brain...). Does it make sense as a chore?

Do any of you ever run your ideas by friends or family members and ask their opinion of it?

I sent out a whole slew of texts to mine in a "chose A B C or D" format. They initially thought it was a psychology test....

lol actually I do! I send it to my sister and also post them on facebook to see what people think...I have a few members of my family who actually know what woot is who can give some decent input

I had a really cute idea...not sure if it would get rejected though...let me know!

Oh yes please!! That monster makes me feel really, really happy.

How can you say that?! I hate that monster. If I ever found him I'd poke him in the eye repeatedly until he gave back every sock that he stole :P

All done!

Question: We can only use six colors, right? If so, are we allowed to add shading or highlights or does that count as additional colors? I guess my real question is are we allowed to use multiple shades of the same color? Thanks

You can use 6 ink colors. However, you can work with halftones and blending (still using the same 6 inks) to create way more colors than that. I've seen some artists make it look like there were 12 or 13 colors only using 6. Also, you can use the color of the shirt in your design and kind of sneak a 7th color in that way.

Red or Lemon?
Other suggestions?
Thanks!

Yes, please work this one up! Although I admit that on first view the monster looked like the Cookie Monster and I wondered why the kid would wash his toy - maybe a less-muppety monster?

I like it, RRR, but don't care for what looks like a face on the front chest panel of the 'bot. Maybe a feather duster in the other hand?

I prefer the red. And I would love to see you submit a dog version of this as well.

I disagree about the feather duster. The way the robot is holding the cord in that hand is so *exactly* how my mother vacuums. That little detail is what makes this design for me.

I'm actually working today instead of waiting to the last minute. Here's a sketch of one of my ideas.

I like the red. But the cat's behind looks a little odd. Can the fluffy part extend all the way down to his butt? And the bump on top of his butt is odd looking, too.

Toying with this one. A bit detailed for me, but I think it would turn out pretty fun. Let me know what the Woot masses think!

I think it's funny and like it alot, but I kinda wish the plate had more obvious hair. Like a big afro or beehive or curly mustachio or something.

That's AWESOME and I just adore that kid!

Love this!!!

How about this?

You need to switch your king/queen on one of the sides.

Here's what I'm playing with:





My goal is to combine sorting garbage and recyclables with the old Mac garbage can.

Does it work or should I just put the design in the center of the chest.

Note: I know the derby rules say no video games, so I'm hoping the fact the Mac desktop is a shell/OS not a game will let this slip past the rejectionator.

P.S.: Any suggestions for what the hand should be holding? I was toying with the idea of an apple core >; )

Red it is! Thanks everyone!

@ lavenderpoet - good point, my artist goggles weren't seeing that until you pointed it out. Does this look better?

Got the idea and drawing done, just gotta think colors and shading... Wish I didn't have to go to day job tomorrow.

Since my last bag lady did so well in the last derby, thought I'd stick with the feminine form.

Color or tshirt color thoughts? Thinking pinks or yellows...

Fixed.

Thank you!

Yeah, that sums up my cleaning methods ...

GMV when it's up, Nicholas.

Love the concept, but the board should be arranged so a white square is in the bottom right corner.

Here's what I'll be submitting:

Feed the kitty by Ape Lad, on Flickr

I work as a housekeeper and I can't wait to see what people enter and now I'll need to reserve some money to buy some if not all.

I meant the bump on top of the cat's butt/back. Google image cat tail fluffed and you'll see what I mean about the tail. There's no "stem" before the fluff. The correct body position and fluffy tail will make the cat look properly scared of the vacuum monster. And we all know how truly horrible that monster is...
