Shirt.Woot

Wow, that is really quite and amazing and beautiful design. I don't like it on the shirt color though.

I don't know if I like the art enough to get it on this shirt.

So are we melting their heart of stone with a hot tropical beat or breaking their heart of stone with a cool island beat?

I like the breaking open/crumbling the stone glow at the top. Nice one.

This is a take-your-breath-away kind of design. No text, no pop culture reference, just beauty erupting from a shirt.

purty!

Haha, yep it's a talent.

My heart grew 5 sizes by gazing at the magnificent artwork.

The dirty word replacement system seems to be acting up again...

Yes, I do find this shirt sexy.

I knew it. Butterflies don't come from your stomach, they come from your heart.

Jokes aside, great design. I feel like it has it's own "Aaaaaaaaaa!" fanfare soundtrack going on in my head.

Hey! Anyone else remember Wonder Balls? This is just like that only not disappointing!

Love the art, all the careful details.
I find it almost religious like a catholic holy card or icon, a sainted virgin with her angelic heart, or something like that.

(Too much parochial education for me.)

Free Your Heart? The image looks more like "Break Your Heart Open"...

Anyone else thinking of the Mumford and Sons song, "Awake my Soul"?

Oh I wonder, wonder, wonder...

Curiosity got the best of me. I stole one of those just to see what was inside the ball. It was not magical butterflies and waterfalls.

That design is just plain gorgeous! Great job!

Normally I don't comment on these, but honestly this is some of the best actual artwork I've seen. No offence to the rest of the artists because they do a great job as well.

I just find this design elegant and its use of color is quite good as well.

Fantastic artwork. Too bad about the low-quality blanks, it's just not worth $12 for the crappy Anvils... I really need to quit checking Shirt.woot... it's just depressing...

Wow, I didn't even think of the heart of stone part until I read the write-up.

Informative AND entertaining- has to be a NARWHALS!

This grabbed me as a heart that had been crusted over with sin. The heart is being set free, or restored, by the River of Living Water, flowing from Jesus Christ! (John 7:38)

Incredibly beautiful. I haven't had an insta-buy in a while, but I didn't even hesitate about clicking the big yellow button this time.

That's all well and fine Thunder, but a lot of us are still vocally displeased with the quality of the new shirts. I understand you tire of seeing people griping about it, but some of us were 50 shirts deep before the change and are really sad to no longer be able to purchase shirts that survive 1 wash.

Would you prefer never receiving customer feedback or customers that continue to visit the site, despite our displeasure with your product?

What an amazingly beautiful design. I would kill to get a print of this to hang on my wall!

While I adore the concept and artwork, the butterfly kinda steers me away. Not real sure why. I'd be all over it without the butterfly. The design fits my personality.

Constantly.

Love the design. Will have to measure it though because it looks huge on the shirt. I only get a shirt if I really like the design because I don't like the anvil shirts. I'd rather pay the $22 for a DBH shirt that is on a comfortable, good quality blank and the print quality is consistent.

I LOVE the design but can I get it on a V neck T shirt or a tank top???

Lovely design, but there's just something about the feel of the more recent shirtwoot shirts that makes me hesitate. The texture of the fabric is -- wrongish somehow.

Absolutely gorgeous design though.

If you think the heart's impressive, you should see what's inside a stone spleen.

Yeah, it's just a worse quality shirt now. It just feels...cheap. That combined with the $2 price increase has made me really hesitant about making purchases now. They have to really blow me away.

Which this one does, but I'm still on the fence because of the subpar feel of the new shirts. Guess I got a few hours to decide.

Looks like some choice stuff in there. As Snoop might say, no seeds, no stems, no sticks!

Really beautiful image and thoughts that make up this design, very impressed!

Oh yes, it does take one's breath away. It was my instant impression also. The complexity of the design, astounding!

I opened my email, clicked with lightening speed, arrived at the site, bought, then returned to read the information. So you see I instantly did fall for this image.

It was only after payment, while admiring the art in this image, I noticed what no one else here seems to have commented. The cat! I can see a silhouette of a cat on the left side of the heart looking eagerly up at at the butterfly. Here I thought I was getting my first serious shirt and the joke was on me. This makes it even better!

I am astonished at the lack of awareness for I got the impression that this was a cat lover's site. For those who cannot see the cat, enlarge the image. Hmm, now with it enlarged I am seeing more on the right side of the heart in the rock of the heart's opening. Check out the falling chips, too. Halloween there, I see, I really do. Use your imagination, for this is truly intentional additions to this work of art. comrade2 this image positively does have sincere deep thoughts that made up the entire design. I must go and examine the flowers and greenery, there may be more yet to discover.

The significance of the butterfly is highly important for it is a symbol of freedom (spread your wings and fly...lightly and freely...). Plus the delicacy of nature itself as in the free flowing waterfall. The butterfly coming towards the glow, gives the darkness (I am so happy not to see that it was another black shirt again) of the shirt and rock heart some interesting contrast. It adds to what I was saying about the hidden creature yet not commented on being found except by myself and others who have not yet posted. The cat needed to be animated, right? Just like this is a fun-time site.

If only it wasn't on charcoal...

Oh wow, I do see the cats face! I almost think that is a paw right underneath it's face, looking like it might be reaching up. I'm failing to see the Halloween you mention, but maybe I'm just too exhausted still. I didn't even really see this shirt this morning, I didn't have time for more than a quick glance. I may end up having to buy 2 of these shirts, one for myself and one for my friend! Uh-oh!

I don't buy art t-shirts. I don't buy them ever. I just buy the nerdy ones. I only wear t-shirts to work anyhow.

But I bought this one because it was by far the best one I've ever seen. It was the first time I've ever bought an art one.

It looks more like a general dark creature to me than an actual cat, but my computer is not currently letting me zoom in so I can't be sure. I was glad that it didn't look very cat-like to me when I saw it though. I really love this shirt, but I really do not love cat shirts. (I do like cats. I just don't like them on my shirt.)

I can sort of see how someone could have seen ghosts in the falling rocks, but I am unsure of whether or not that is what that person was referring to as Halloween.
