Thank you all for the awesome constructive tips! I know it's late but I've resubbed with a bunch of text changes and hopefully a less "beer mug" looking coffee mug! Please vote for the new version:

Re: Dunk Science (resub)

Resubbed with a bunch of mostly textual changes. Thanks to everyone for all the tips!

Re: know your knives

I NEED this shirt. It will go perfect in my collection along with Kitchen Warfare and Knife To See You

Please make this shirt. Please please please

Re: Beat It

Like this one. Great job.

Re: Midnight Snack

Good use of color. Very cute.

Re: Breakfast Program v.2

I love this for the indentation style.

What exactly is here that should make anyone blush?

Let me guess...the very IDEA of nudity makes you fidget uncomfortably?

Re: Lets Bake! (resub)

I like it, although I wouldn't wear it unless you add the apostrope (') between the "E" in bake and the "S"

Re: Forbidden Love

Cute idea, very forbidden.

Re: Beef Cake

funny idea. good execution. +1

Crrrrap! You mean between the t and s in lets, I assume? Yeah, I need to change that. >:-(

Re: BLTee

but why leave out the T? tomato should be in on the fun of the BLTee

Re: Lets Bake! (resub)

I would like this on an apron! WOOT! Give me adorable kitchen aprons!! Please?

Re: Galaxy Soup

I was really disappointed to see this slip out of the fog. This was my absolute favorite from the first day! This is a creative, absolutely ORIGINAL idea without using anyone else's (*okay maybe the galaxy's*) art or concept. I really love it.

Also Rasabi, that spiderman picture = +5 awesome points for you*

**note: awesome points do not actually do anything, but hopefully give you a warm feeling in your tummy... or that could be indigestion...

I was just clicking to correct that, myself.

Ale Rules! Gimme a beer!

Re: Lets Bake! (resub 2)

Ok, hopefully the last revision.

Re: The Happy Teakettle

your designs always make me smile. I am always sad when they slip out of the fog... I would love to add this to my collection :-) You should make a webpage dedicated to selling un-successful shirt-woot shirts... I would buy lots!

Re: Three little strips of bacon

BACON!!!!

Re: Makin' Bread

I think we all agree. We knead this shirt!

Re: Dunk Science (resub)

I'd love it, but I think I'd like the graphx if they were a little smaller, ...just a little.

Great idea.

Re: Makin' Bread

Kitty feels the need to knead.

Re: In The Kitchen

Great idea, but Woot has a 6 color Maximum.

Maybe eliminate one of the colors and use the shirt color? Maybe go with the black, siver, green, or cranberry so you can do that. Just a suggestion, but I would start on it now! I see "rejection" in your future.

As a female bodied cookie, I'm offended by the objectification of my kind that this design represents. I mean really, where's his good-n-plenty?

Re: Dunk Science (resub)

A bit late to the party, and rather large on the shirt as well, but GMV because I like this one better, and you that bothered to make corrections at all.

Re: Makin' Bread

I would luuurrrv to have bakin' kitty on my chest!!! Gooo kitty!

PS: Wearing your tortoise and hare shirt today :D

Re: Meatatarian

i love the expression on the vegetarian bunny's face

Re: Breakfast of Plumbers

Amazing shirt! There is some stiff competition with all Star Wars designs, but this has just gotta make it print.

Re: The Last Breakfast

Love it, though I think the artwork is strong enough that it would work better without the text (no worries about people getting the reference).

GMV nonetheless.

And mjc613 you have got to be kidding me! A Pacman shirt took second in last week's derby!

Actually I wasn't. The shirt you are referring to used some Pacman references in the write-up, and it was inspired by Pacman, but the iconic yellow circle with the pie piece cut out is not present. Also the ghosts, while the same colors, are not the same design as those used by Pacman.

As for asking Woot to be more specific about their rules, that is a problem that has been around since the beginning. There used to be a link to a guide put together by some designers of all the rules they learned by trial and error, but I don't have it. All I can say is that if someone pops up and says "Woot will probably reject this", it's worth it to pay attention. It's tough on the new people, but I think everyone has run into this.

Re: The Last Breakfast

This is wonderful. So imaginative. I can't wait to decode the messages hidden within! GMV.

meandsecoya wrote:I just wanted to say that, while I understand why your shirt was rejected, it is an awesome shirt. If those are your drawings, and I assume they are since that's what you said, you did a fabulous job with this.

Thanks a lot!

Honestly, I was worried about the copyright issues going into this one but I liked the idea and wanted to give it a shot.

Obviously I'm new to this process so I guess this is just the learning curve but it's too bad you have to troll all the rejected shirts just to learn some of the more nebulous rules to follow next time.

That being said look for some original stuff from me next week!

They should come out just fine if this shirt prints. The stitches and other tiny details on my "slow and steady" shirt came out crystal clear, and the fishes are a little bigger than those

@ bassanimation: Yay!!!

It's probably just covered up by his hands :D

Re: In The Kitchen

I'd go with a resub eliminating the cranberry in Mr. Green's tie (as it seems like the color most inconsequential to the greater design), and replace it with the silver or tan colors already used.

Probably a little late for a resub at this point, but good idea!

I debated if I wanted the T to be "tomato", or "tee shirt", and tee shirt won, but not by much.

Re: Breakfast Program v.2

As a testament to how awesome this shirt is, it promoted a 15 minute discussion about different ways to improve the logic in my office.

I really want to make it super efficient and use a single function for cooking and have object overloading, but I thought that would be to confusing for most people... So I made it simple...
