ver 2 of the bulb shirt...textless, this displays the idea more thouroughly than the "off" stasis of the previous version. I dont count "!" as text, if you do...by all means sound it out for me.

KEMMLER on Apr 03 '05

this is really good art, however I'd rather see it:
minus the '!'
moved down a little with the bulbs spread out a little more
not on frickin' safety orange
Alex's predicted final score for this entry: 2.42

number4 on Apr 04 '05

Yep, lose the !

E* on Apr 04 '05

6 colours and loose the ! .
Maybe middle bulb should not be yellow, but just have the spiral thing inside glowing and some sort of lines around the bulb to suggest glow.

astute observation....Ive seen shirts with 8 get printed....

__mellowbonsai on Apr 04 '05

don't use the !

cliche

ej ronin on Apr 05 '05

and your idea of that cliche` would be?

bulletsdontargue on Apr 05 '05

I think it's great if you lose the exclamation point and maybe space out the bulbs; they seem too bunched together to me.

ej ronin on Apr 05 '05

yeah I'll redo it...even at the expense of being called CLICHE`...

grayehound on Apr 05 '05

The light bulb has to be in the top ten of overused clichés. On the positive side, you could replace it with a candle, which was the number one overused cliché meaning "idea" for the three millinia prior to the 1920's It's since fallen into the "retro" catagory, making it cool again.

Aside from that, good illustration, but everything is too tightly packed together. Oh, and isn't the "!" the OTHER cliché for "I've got an idea?"

ej ronin on Apr 05 '05

engh...perhaps, but I resubmitted this again spaced and sans "!"

Default_Setting on Apr 05 '05

to many colors

ej ronin on Apr 05 '05

well yeah and I dropped the colors to four.. but again...I ve seen designs print with gradient AND more than 4.

skankingskaman on Apr 06 '05

i like...

Gobsnocker on Apr 06 '05

why did you put the "!" at the end?

Rise_of_emp on Apr 06 '05

oh.. sorry i just meant the lightbulbs are cliche.. they've have been used over and over to describe "idea"... there's probably a better way to convey the message. Nice illustrations though

ej ronin on Apr 06 '05

the "!" is representing the idea that even when you feel that your resources are depleted, you still find a way o get it done....becoming self reliant so to speak. I guess I could have illustrated that a lot better though.

andthenericsaid on Apr 06 '05

the bulbs are almost on t he on the face... lower that and you got something. good idea, maybe lose the "!" though, but good idea none the less.

amlingisrad on Apr 07 '05

who gives a fuck if something is cliche, that means people like it...

D.O.T. orange is a little blinding...

ej ronin on Apr 07 '05

yeah....there is a ver 3 of his too....

KPizzle on Apr 07 '05

light bulbs suck, i like thomas edison sucks and so does alexander grahm bell does too, or whoever invented the light bulb. they stick, im out, i peed

eyeforthegoods on Apr 07 '05

i ust don't lik e the shirt colors

ej ronin on Apr 07 '05

actually KPizzle - in a way they do...guess what...theres a vaccum inside...

smoke ring halo on Apr 08 '05

don't get rid of the "!"
just give it some style man
it's so plain, and the bulbs actually have some detail, so don't leave your punctuation hanging

ej ronin on Apr 08 '05

lol... yeah....I dropped the "!", and spaced it out...dropped the colors to 4 and resubmitted it
