So I have a question. One thing the competition asks us to avoid is having trees, "especially that ONE tree."

So, what is this ONE tree they're talking about? Is it just an inside joke? I'm missing something here guys, I dont like being in the dark. It's lonely

or the tree of knowledge.

I think they probably mean the Neubau Welt tree. I see it everywhere. Famous vector clipart.

well, because the tree that was used as a part of predicament was also used in several subs after and maybe before the shirt came out. it was a pretty common vector graphic, and it got playyyed out

i thought they stated "high concept" ... one that made you think and not so common as a sole tree which could perpresent so much, you know a more refined idea dealing with the theme. no games homie, lol

there's a bazillion "designs" that are just a tree on a shirt. whether it is done well or not, we've all seen that tree too many times. so basically, don't sub something that it just one tree and think you are giving us something deep to look at.

the real question is, can it contain a tree at all, because i have a design with a tree but its just the trunk, it doesnt really play a big role in the design, is that allowed
