You're shit's always great. I'd buy. Keep it up. But the angles are askew. The swingset is facing us, but they are jumping the opposite direction.

I finally see what those that have a problem with the angle are seeing (if that makes sense).

It seems the smaller X is creating a forced-perspective issue. It is supposed to create the illusion of distance,

but I intended for the dotted lines to be taken literally. In other words the winning jump is GREATLY higher and longer than the other jump, so great that it wouldn't be possible - which is making some see an angle problem.

I could probably fix this, but I'm just too lazy.

Thanks for all the positive feedback though - always nice to read.

It turns out I'm less lazy than I thought, go figure.

Earlier today I submitted a revised version of this design (first revision I've ever done, I feel I'm growing).

If you're a fan of the simplicity of this one, you may dislike the new one - but I think I solved the angle problem.

Anyway, watch out for it and if you voted positive for this one - share some of the love for my new one, should be up any day. Thanks.

cool design, but the perspective and angle, as already pointed out, are both off. The trajectory of the winner has him/her landing in an impossible position relative to the seat he/she just flew off. the landing spot should be shifted slightly down the shirt. also the A frames of the set are skewed in relation to each other. also, the fact that the winner's swing is flaping around as it is would be unexpected for the position it is in. the occupant must have just bailed and thus the swing would be at the height of it's path and the tension in the lines at its greatest, not flapping. anyway........my mind has been on physics too much lately, but it's a good design and should be set to perfect physical proportions. peace

I may get thrashed for saying this on my future submissions, but many of the designs submitted on this site shouldnt be critiqued based on the absolute position of an object, or how 'off' something is. So I slightly disagree with sounDune. Much of my artwork is purposely uncentered...or mabye I really did want to make one eye larger than the other...or perhaps I didn't want a clean look, but a rather scribbly look to the artwork. If the designer corrected his artwork above, I think it wouldn't carry the same message he initially intended it to and the substance lost. Anyways, back to the subject...I think some of these designs should be critiqued based on the art itself, not how unproportioned it is.

That shirt would not be nearly as cool if it were physically accurate. It would really take away from the radness of it. Also, you are a loser for having pointed all of that out.

Ah rats, I would like this shirt so much better, if it were just the swingset, blowing in the breeze, children gone. That probably negates what you were going for, but I'd prefer it that way. It just went one step beyond what I wanted to see.
