			<description><![CDATA[So I've been doing a survey of successful vs. unsuccessful design submissions over the past few weeks.  Success, the way I judge it, is also partly measured by the design making it past the first day.  Strangely, the only statistically valid predictor of design success is the number of blog entries the artist has made.  Many times, the comments on the designs are made by people who also frequently respond to the artist's blog entries.<br />
<br />
So, the moral of the story is... post lots in the blog forum, make lots of Threadless friends, and make them $5 you.<br />

$5 me for cracking the mystery of how to get a shirt made.<br />
Plus I REALLY want a tshirt with a sketchy penguin on it.<br />
I'm thinking of running an actual statistical analysis on this theory, but Threadless makes it tough since it doesn't have an easily traceable &quot;friend&quot; feature.]]></description>
