Shirt.Woot

Dark Side of Oz isn't in print? That's one that I really wanted to nab but was too broke to get, but it still isn't available...=(

WAIT.....A.......MINUTE......

YOU CAN BUY HOW MANY OF THE $18 SHIRTS AT A TIME?!!!!!!!


HOLY SIZZLE!

I for one am sad about this. At first I was super excited at realizing I could buy a pocket protector shirt again, as I missed it the first time around, but then I realized that my shirt is no longer unique and with no drive to buy it before it is reckoned then I will probably never have money to buy it, because it no longer is a priority. So Sad...this one goes down as a minus in my book woot.

Heh! I totally called this! (About two weeks ago, I identified the shirt.woot "secret" project was entire-catalog-to-DTG; thanks to Slacker44 for the final piece of evidence!)

Very happy to see so many favorites available again. I hope this has a net benefit for the artists; it will likely spread out the commissions, but allow artists to continue earning commissions over a much longer period of time.

I am curious about side sales. The C contracts gives you guys shirt rights for a year. Are you going to keep them off the catalog because it makes them more exclusive or because it's impractical? Any thoughts?

Actually I guess B contract too now that I think about it...

Fashionista was pulled mid-day for copyright reasons (rights-retained photos and clip art; it's all in the shirt thread), but it's available in the catalog... Oh, and One Cheer for Broccoli is also available; that was also pulled for copyright violations

World Nom-ination is not available.

I know some shirts on "B" contracts aren't posted. Is there a way to tell which shirts are on "B" contracts? Do you want us to post about shirts that aren't available, like Funk Buddies?

This is the best/worst thing ever. Remember when you crawled under a stopped train and got grease all over the back of your favorite Woot Shirt? Or...wait, that was "I", not "you". I can now replace that!

Would like to see the orange shirts available on another color, even just white. Kitty Gratis was calling to me.

How hard was it for the Staff to keep this secret when every Plus sale has "I've been waiting for this on a tee, not a [tote, apron, sweatshirt]." comments?

+1 to the wish for a wishlist; Already I have a window full of shirt tabs open for me to review later for possible purchasing.

What about One Cheer for Broccoli? And thanks for the quick action on Fashionista; it's already listed as out-of-print.

ETA: And One Cheer for Broccoli is gone too.

Indeed it is! Thanks to you all (and the devs) for the quick response.

Thank you.

I've been playing with the search function with the artist's names ... on several searches, the last few that come up are NOT of that artist's. Running a search for 'patrickspens' yielded 'omarfeliciano' and 'WEAREYAWN' too. And while searching 'tgentry' and getting a 'chogentry' result is accurate, the 'Jimmy009' result is not.

What I do find strange is how some shirts are now unlinked from their discussion page, like Schrödinger’s Equation (I was looking up the color info.)

So, if something is on one of the other contracts, it won't show up in the listings under "all designs" at all? OR should it be there but "out of print" like ones that should never be available? Seems that if you're going to list the ones with copy issues as out of print, the others should show up as well? I couldn't find "When I Grow Up" at all.

Shirts that only printed in the Woot Plus sales, like the Mentions of Honors and PURPLEPALOOZA shirts, aren't listed. I assumed it was because they're not part of the "catalog" in the same way as the Dailies/Derbies.

ahhh...I'd forgotten the HM's were a side sale. thanks!

Same... I really liked the whole "limited" factor shirt.woot had going. This could be good for when someone spills bleach on a shirt from 5 years ago, but now most of my shirt collection won't be as special as it used to be :\ I'm okay with some of the changes that have been implemented recently but unfortunately, this one just bums me out.

Great idea!

Will there be any efforts made to reach out to folks with non-exclusive contracts to complete the catalog (except for the copyright violators, those bad bad children)? Or to reach out to the folks in side sales? I know there's thoughts of expanding this to be to Print on ALL of The Things, but getting some of that other stuff up would be nice. Also, I second the wootoff side sale. Or having a day where stuff is sold at a discounted price every so often.

I've never seen anyone in the "wild" wearing Binge. I've never seen any shirt on the Favorites list in the wild. I just checked with Narf: he can't recall seeing any shirt on the Favorites list; he also can't recall having seen any shirt, regardless of how many shirts it sold, more than once.

Just The Two Of Us looks like a 2 for 1 deal, but I imagine they need to be split apart somehow or an extra option to select which shirt added.

I only see them at "nerd" events. Comic-Con, and then themed shirts at midnight movies, for example the yearly screening of Serenity... Just going to the zoo or eating out? Nah.

Any chance of Be The Screaming Monkey being added to the catalog? It was my first Woot shirt.

I do believe that this had metallic ink. The new printing can't do metallics yet.

I don't remember it being metallic. I don't have it anymore or I'd go look. You could be right, though. Besides, the Kelly Green shirts they first used were a different color than the Kelly Green of the past few years. In fact, the specs on the shirt page calls it "Greenish" but I remember that greenish color being listed as Kelly Green for other shirts.

You can't make a wishlist on woot, but I made one on pinterest...

Great idea! I'm definitely going to do that.

Any chance of this awesome, and very rare woot! shirt be reprinted?

The woot! logo on the back is metallic. I just pulled mine out, and have discovered how worn out it is.

Would you like a picture?

I would also like to request CARTS. I sometimes order lots of things, and sometimes credit card companies get weird about lots of things having lots of separate charges from the same vendor.

Search parameters are not perfect. I searched Octopus and Squid individually, and not all of the octopus and squid shirts we have are up there. Free Hugs, for example, doesn't come up. I know, it's a robot octopus, but it's still an octopus!

Kraken Bathtime is also not tagged as squid... maybe I have to search for kraken? :D

AAANNNND! There should be a category for puns. Because most of the shirts that I've bought for myself are visual puns or outright text puns. Like Metrognome, Ding, Dong the witch is dead, If I only had a brain, etc.

Nah, that's ok. I miss that shirt! I gave it away thinking it would never fit me (it was a 2X, because 3X wasn't available back then). It would be big on me, now, but wearable. I regret that decision so much, now.

They DO pop up on eBay from time to time. Oddly enough, mostly in women's sizes.
