viralVISUAL on Jul 19 '07 Simple isn't always bad. I like this one. Only thing that bothers me is the shirt placement. I think it should look the way it does in the preview.
|
 |
yeah, the way it fits on the shirt REALLY needs to be fixed. people looking at the shirt will be thinking more about "why is it lopsided???" than the message you actually want to convey.
|
 |
simple = simply sweet... nice art man, its calming in a way. makes you forget that these dot's are at war with one another sometimes...(especially when playing Risk)
|
|
cute, but god i wish it weren't on beige like EVERY other threadless shirt lately... black maybe, if it wins?
|
 |
i like your description
|
 |
this design is very simple, but also very good. i agree with the other about making the design straight on the shirt though, and you dont need the text at all. great shirt though man!
|
 |
thats cool. 4
|
 |
tracerbullet on Jul 19 '07 simple yet effective. but i agree about the shirt placement.

Dude, some one is ripping your idea. You might want to contact Threadless about it. Check it out...

you missed sri lanka. seriously.
blue dot under india. come on man! |
|
tracerbullet on Jul 19 '07 they both went up for scoring today. it's just a coincidence. this one is better anyway.
|
 |
Yeah everyone! you guys are right about the placement.. I don't what went through my mind... Anyways, take two seconds to fix! Do as if it was already done, score the design!!! Thanks all of you for the compliments! :) woohoo
|
 |
I'm just glad NZ is in this one!
|
 |
it is a coincidence, because I had the same idea, but unfortunately (or fortunately depending on how you look at it) I did not submit it yet.
Anyway, I like your color scheme, MonsieurE, even though I may already be biased towards this design. ;) |
 |
Guys are you kiddin me?
THIEF? When i have post it there where no design submitted for the competition!! Anyway, MonsieurE, your design is very cool, probably better than mine mine, but your attitude it's not exactly "KEEP IT GREEN"!! |
 |
Maybe I'm weird (ok, I admit it, there's no 'maybe' about it), but I don't really mind the weird angled placement suggested on the shirt. I'd be fine with a more straightforward placement, too, tho'.
|
 |
Robsoul on Jul 20 '07 It'd be dope if you resubbed this idea but included a fabric marker (sharpie) with the purchase of each tee, something cool like that might catch the attention of the voters
But I don't think that people are that experimental. Unfortunate reaLLY! |
 |
This is a Link to my comment about this
|
 |
nobody stole anything from anyone. Both designs were submitted around the same time. So close that they were almost right next to each other in the pending subs tool
|
 |
Thanks for clearing that up, shimala. Too many people are quick to cry plagiarism...
|
|
Thanks Shimala
|
|
Hey man I'm just kidding.. I'm not SERIOUSLY calling you a thief, chillout! Two people can think of the same thing...
|
|
Oh and what do you mean by my attitude is not very Keep It Green?
|
|
Sorry man, it was my first reaction. But try to understand.....
"Keep it green" in this particular case, for me was also acting fair towards strangers, not to point a finger just because someone said something. Aniway, good luck and may the best win! |
|
i ment anyway...
|
|
There's something missing from the concept. Perhaps only some of the dots would be connected -- allowing the shirt to also make a statement rather than just relate to the theme. There's a bigger message that a connections graphic can deliver. Finally, I gave it a 3 not because I didn't like it, but rather because it missed an opportunity to be more than what it was.
|
 |
I like the placement but I wish the text was straight...but just the text...
|
|
Not a bad idea...
|
 |
I would LOVE it without the text, and straight-center.
Much simpler without words Mind you, I think I'd like what AbstractAngel says $5 anyway! |
 |
hey, where is central america?
Maybe on black t shirt |
|
Central America is there man... just very thin, hard to get all the details with dots hehe :)
|
|
what's not there are the north and south poles... as usual lol
|
|
hahahaha got me one that one!
|
 |
nice, really nice. $5 from me.
|
|
Really nice. Especially if slanted on the tee. $
|
 |
It's simple and the message is pretty clear. I don't think as "creativitee" said that it missed and opportunity to be a lot more...designers learn to simplify concepts rather then add superfluous details...i believe if Monsieur had chosen to connects dots in one spot rather then another people would have complained about why he didn't start with their country!?!lol anyways great idea ...love the colors!
|
|
very nice!
|
 |
I WANT IT.
|
|
i like the colors.
|
|
I like this alot, I agree about the placement though
|
 |
I like yours better just for the detail. Maybe if some don't like the picture at an angle, make it a wrap-around? but some people might take offense that their country is on the back, haha... and I think I might like the dots better in all green. The colors are just too bright for me on this tee. but great design overall.
|
 |
i wish the dots had the little numbers by them like a real connect-the-dots would... o well
|
 |
this is awesome. dunno bout the positioning though.
|
|
New Placement!
For those of you who mentioned the colors.. remember, this is tee for Gmail, it has to have something Gmailish somewhere... using the logo would be "mehh" so I used the colors... and like I said... K nevermind, read the description on top LOL it's all there :) Thanks! |
|
I'm getting pretty passionate about this shirt. I want to wear it! haha. I like either placement to be honest. It's makes for a different shirt entirely, but either one is great! The text looks worse on the centered one though. I'd definitely like to see it gone from that one.
|
|
hit me w hawaii and 5s a lock. on black if it wins
|
 |
Well done. A fitting tribute.
|
|
hawai!! that i'll add! hehehe
|
 |
title should change though... call it connect the dots
not bad |
|
now the title? lol omg
|
|
straight across placement please!
and no text. but I really really like it otherwise. |
 |
the new placement is alot better. the colours you used are good to match the g-mail
|
 |
i wouldnt have given it a very good score if i hadnt seen your first comment
|
 |
i would wear this shirt.
|
 |
Nice.. the new placement rocksss!!

So.. The design is very simple, but I think it responds to theme ("Connect") in a couple of ways... We all know and have all done those connect the dots drawings, in this case.. we, people are the dots! How do we all connect and communicate? The Internet/Gmail :)
Also, using the blue+red+yellow+green gives that Gmailish look without using the Gmail logo, and highlights the many colors of the world... I was going to do it on white, but then I thought it would also look good on the "natural" color, supporting the "Keep It Green!" attitude! The placement might look a bit odd, but try to visualize the printed thing... it's more interesting than straight on the chest, and fills up the shirt better! :)
Thanks For Looking! :)
