Long time nothing happend, but now i'm back with the 9th Version of my "give peace a chance" design.

As you can see, i tried a very other design than the versions before, only this breaking through idea with inner shadow and outer glow and kept the peace-flag-colors but simpled them down every peace just one color.

What do u think? Am I on the right way?

Ya wow, I really enjoy this, I did kind of enjoy the text on the leaves, though I'm sure that got voted down by others

I went back and looked at the earlier versions and, yes, I think this is a real improvement. I like focusing the colors in the leaves and leaving the bird as a solid color. I also like the visual trick of using the shadows to make the image appear to be receding. It gives the image a nice unexpected twist.
But the white line appears to be both an outline and the highlight catching the light that is making the shadow. That bothers me a bit. It might be better if you use just one or if you make the outline a separate color so that they appear different.
One other thing, the shadow in the upper left wing doesn't look as deep as the others. Overall, however, I really like this.

Feels too much like MS Windows in the colour scheme... maybe if you had the dove descending on an Apple it would work :)

The heavier and darker stroke along the top parts of the image throw me off a bit. I do like how they thicken and slender along the design, but having the darkest thickest parts on top seem too top-heavy. Especially on the leaves. I might reverse it and put the thicker lines on the bottom. Nice design overall.

If you have a minute, give my design a vote!

I actually like the previous version better...there was something that felt smarter or sharper! also it kind of reminded me of the ibm logo which might give you another direction to add some hidden context...:)

Hi I love the meaning behind this. But I think it could really lose the white and black lines. It makes it look slightly like a clipart out of Microsoft. But it's really good progress and I think you're getting there, don't fret! Just look at other printed tees for inspiration!

I think it's great, except the blue-on-blue dove. I have a shirt with a ton of cream colored doves on charcoal. I think cream would work better than the baby blue here for the dove.

The Big Bang , my latest design is up for scoring. If you can give it a good vote, I would be very thankful.

I like the composition. Wings have a nice flow. I don't like the shadows or outlines though. I'd add texture to it, but lose the outlines/shadows completely.

I like the improvements that have been made throughout the designs. I agree with some of the others to get rid of the stroke and see how it looks without that. The text you did earlier looked pretty good too.

I can see this going somewhere!

I'd like to see the feather's edges on the wings like in the previous versions; I think it makes the bird look less stiff.
This version is very calm with the restrained color use. I would revisit the style of version 7 for a different design perhaps - I think it's to "violent" for this tee but it's a really nice technique.

Overall great composition. I would say go with either the drop shadow or the outer glow, but not both. I'd personally stick with the outer glow - just expand and soften it up a bit. Good luck!
