The tree is much too large and distracts from the dinosaur, which should be the main focus. The character is cute though, if that's what you're into.

wow, hold the phone debbie downer (aka sunpippy)! this is threadless, a safe place for all artists and t-shirt fanatics to spread the love, not a place for you to spread negativity. your words are hurtful and offensive, but the monoclesaurus will overcome because is his loved and adored by all!

and if you punch katieroz in the face the monoclesaurus will eat your leaves and i'll bite you as well just for good measure.
jayparx
jayparx on Jun 25 '07
did you seriously create a new name just so you could give the monoclesaurus a O.oo average rating? We're on to you. And I'm no one's myspace friend. The saurus is going to be a t-shirt because everyone wants it to be- some lame sun pippy won't keep me from achieving my dream

sunpippy
sunpippy on Jun 26 '07
why don't you tell your friend not to be cutting down on other artists designs, its karma. you don't believe me?, look at your precious KatieRoz average score for rating over 1700 designs, she gives out an average of less than 1.5. Sure not every design on threadless is a 5, but having an average of less than 1.5 just tells me that that person is jaded and has an inferiority complex. For people to say they are about supporting a community --- and a contributor gives an average of 1.47 ,

under the old threadless rules, if people scored the design the same as your precious KatieRoz, less than 1.5 it would have been taken off the site after 24 hours

http://threadless.com/news/1236/Important_new_scoring_functionality!

they changed the rule because of artists undercutting other artists for no good reason.

KatieRoz you are being called out for your 1.47 review rating average. its just like the beatles say, the love you take is equal to the love you make. Stop Hating on other people

all things said, its really an actually lovely design
sunpippy
sunpippy on Jun 26 '07
clarebear you are worst... you say

"this is threadless, a safe place for all artists and t-shirt fanatics to spread the love, not a place for you to spread negativity. your words are hurtful and offensive,"

but your average rated score right now for 68 designs is a paltry 0.69. talk about hypocritical.

I can only think you are a friend of the submitter and you try to undercut everyone elses designs this week as you just registered so your friend can have a better comparitive average.

don't speak for the artist community, when your average right now for rating is 0.69

sunpippy on Jun 26 '07

i love t-shirts. that's why i am the proud owner of several threadless originals. however, i don't vote higher than 0 for designs I would never wear. i'm just picky like that. i love the monoclesaurus and will be gifting (no joke) everyone i know with their size t-shirt when this gets printed. please do not be mean sunpippy, that makes me and everyone else who likes this design sad, and that's not in the monoclesaurus spirit.

ClaeBear is cute and everything, but "I don't vote higher than 0 for designs I would never wear"?

That doesn't make you "picky like that", it makes you "a douche".

People... 0 - 5 is rating for the work -- the art. $ or no $ is whether or not you would wear it.
bessroz
bessroz on Jun 27 '07
I was under the assumption that we in fact have free speech in this country. I vote based on personal like or dislike of the design, and I don't think there is anything wrong with that.

We are talking about a t-shirt website, maybe some people take it less seriously than you do Aristarchus.
Aristarchus
Aristarchus on Jun 27 '07
I wasn't telling her that she didn't have the right to an opinion, nor that she should shut up. I was saying she was a douche. There's a difference.

However, try and put what she said into context: Assume for a moment that I am representitive of the Average Threadless Voter/Shopper. About 1/100 designs are ones I would wear. That means that out of every 100 designs, if I voted a la ClareBear, would receive something other than a 0. Does that make much sense?

Finally, consider this design: It's cute, I think it's clever, the artist has some skill. After much internal debate over whether to score it a 3 or 4, I gave it a 4. However, I wouldn't wear it. Should I rescore it a 0?
Gaff
Gaff on Jun 27 '07
Isn't this whole idea nicked from the British T-rex design? That is lame.
Aristarchus
Aristarchus on Jun 27 '07
It is a take-off on the British T-Rex -- I thought it might be a late submission to the make-fun-of-the-LUErs contest.

But the fact that it goes beyond the British T-Rex and does something cool with it is what makes it charming.

THAT got printed because the artist has been printed at least 4 times and proven his skills. It's also a SELECT tee which means he can put whatever he wants on it. People here love his stuff.

And yeah, staffell. I thought of the same thing.
obrien234
obrien234 on Jun 29 '07
Now I know I haven't really been a part of this splendid conversation you folks are having, but I thought I shoud throw out some facts (considering I'm dating the designer and I'm the one that introduced her to Threadless in the first place)

1. This is not meant to be a copy of the British T-Rex. The monoclesaurus has been drawn by katieroz since before I've known her (roughly a year and half, aka a year before British T-Rex was submitted). If for some reason you think this is a lie, send me a message, I'll send you dated photos. I bought her a wacom tablet in april and she finally got to do some drawing on her computer, and naturally the monoclesaurus became digitalized.

The designs are two different styles of drawing, with two different focuses.


2. About the friends coming and voting:

Threadless encourages this activity (They even have a form email to send out to your friends as well as banners for your website). It brings new users to the site, and is free advertising. If you feel that the 1% difference caused by the 25 people or so people is going to make a huge difference on how this scores, take another math class.

25/2400 = 1.04% = 0.052 on a scale of 5 = no difference on whether it gets printed.

I mean the "original gamester" scored a 2.00 and it was still printed.

Mr. bojangles, why do you want to continue this mean thread? all you are doing is distracting from a very good design. lets just everyone stop the hate and start new.

btw I am not retarded, but I can tell you are a half wit. I am surprised you have the faculty even to use the english language. Your social worker must be very proud.
