			<description><![CDATA[I like to score designs a lot.  However, I keep seeing other scorers comment that they'd like to see the submissions in a different color.  That's all well and good, except when some of the ladies on Threadless ask that the shirt colors be blue and pink, <b>according to gender</b>.<br />
<br />
Ignore them!  If you want to do a different gender / different color thing, please, for the love of all that is delicious and well-designed, don't do the blue and pink.  I say this for several reasons:<br />
<br />
1) Many girls don't particularly like the color pink <b>or</b> prefer blue (or plenty of other colors)  to it.  I personally will avoid buying pink shirts, regardless of design quality, because I dislike the color immensely.  <i>I have to admit that I'm probably a bit more extreme in my bias than most other users.</i><br />
<br />
2)  If you can make a shirt that looks good in colors that aren't obvious--i.e. a green shirt for girls and a yellow shirt for guys, if you must do gender-specific colors--that shows your good taste and creative thinking more than just going with the <b>stereotypical</b> sort of color choice. Seriously, pink and blue is overdone.<br />
<br />
3) The color pink in general just doesn't look flattering on a lot of people.  I do concede that blue is a color that most people look good in--heck, I have a lot of blue clothes, and I really like it.<br />
<br />
Thanks for reading through this, whether or not you agree with what I'm saying. :) ]]></description>

<br />
I had to double-check that the shirt actually had a white background.  The motion and illusion that there are more than 6 colors (including white) is, in the words of a friend, &quot;pure awesome.&quot;<br />
<br />
I submitted my first photo of a shirt to Threadless today!  It's Nature's Balance.  I hope the upload worked.<br />
<br />
Edit: So it's natural / creme .  Same thing; I don't normally wear shirts that are light-colored, but I'm excited about this one.  Thanks for catching that, guys.<br />
<br />
Re-edit: Well, I feel rather silly.  Maybe I should go back to elementary school and learn the colors / how to read.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[This shirt is awesome.  I love the colors and animals and overall feeling.  Now I'm just going to have to convince myself to shell out money I don't have to get it. xD<br />
<br />
I suppose it looks a bit like an LSD trip.  No matter.  It's whimsical and  just downright fantastic.<br />

Now to get a job...]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I bought an XL of this design for a friend, but when he wore it, he discovered that there was a hole in the shirt.<br />
<br />
When he told me that he had a hole he wanted me to fix that was just a few inches from his heart, I thought he was trying to hit on me.]]></description>
