i think your perspective is off, that top left corner looks as if it's sitting up

Good Idea!

The maze is too easy to solve. Perhaps that's your optimism shining through? I think it would be a funnier shirt if there wasn't a solution.

I totally agree with Utah - but I like it loads still.

I like it, except I would make the person a different color.

Nice work other judges. All this really needs is the maze to be more complex. Other than that, successful design.

The maze is too easy to solve.



From above, maybe. At ground level, or inside it, this would be much more difficult.



It reminds me of Some Choices are Just Out of Reach. Not that they resemble each other, that's just what I thought of. That's a good thing...

i don't know, maybe it's just me but finding "love" in a maze isn't awkward, it's just difficult.

don't do green on green.

Yeah no solution would be a good change to make. As it is it's not that awkward, just time consuming.

I love it, $5. But the I agree with above, the maze perspective isn't exactly right?

Something I would totally wear.

I've typed it before and i'll type it again, Threadless NEEDS more maze designs and most certainly one printed!!! I like this one, but it might get the point across better if the maze was a tad bigger and slightly harder to solve, with a bunch of people already in the maze walking into dead ends, throwing their hands up with rage, etc. As is, I still dig its simplicity and clarity of concept, but don't print it on green. 3.

Hey, thanks for all the great comments. The maze was intentionally slightly out of perspective (honest!) to make it look awkward. Love the idea of the guy not actually being able to get to the middle. Will make a new version and post soon. Thanks again.

LOVE the changed one. It's a good design/idea - regardless of how well it fits the contest, I would still definitely wear it.

Great idea. I like it on dark grey background. Fantastic 5$

I agree it would be funnier if there wasn't a solution the the maze. But I do like it. Well designed and nice color.

The new maze looks like an Umbro logo from a distance.

I like the concept very much, but not so keen on the execution.

fatboyjim on Jun 21 '07

i agree with making it more difficult, not impossible, but what about placing the heart over to the left, where one's heart actually is, then it could have either the message that the wearer is having difficulty finding love or that it is difficult to get the love of the wearer.
Dabem
Dabem on Jun 25 '07
I love waxed chickens idea, but that would be something else entirely.



I actually liked the odd perspective of the original but I like that the revised is unsolvable. either way $5
