About my design
by MysticFaerie   
It looks great on most of the lighter colors, it doesn't work on the darker ones since it blends with them too easily and you cannot read the text as well. This is my first submitted design, and I am really hoping you guys like it! If there's anything I should change about it, feel free to say so! It's 100% original :)

Really cute-- a rare shirt where the words actually make it perfect. I'd like it on a light blue, maybe. $5

Love it.. very cute. the boyfriend makes jokes about me wanting every kind of animal as a pet! So.. I'd buy two! ;)

Oh.. actually think it could be even better without the mother.
Just a thought!

Leslee on Aug 07 '05
Perfect the way it is, but yeah, just a little bit higher on the shirt. And the lighter colours do work better - probably best in light blue. 5$

The mom looks like a ballerina... No complaints, though. I think it looks great the way it is.
mincedniku
mincedniku on Aug 08 '05
The words seem to make it unbalanced, t-shirt-wise (it's a great image on its own), but then it doesn't really work without them. It might just look better if you removed the mother completely. It's cute with just the kid and her big pet. :D
Solmu
Solmu on Aug 08 '05
I find it odd that the mother is dressed and posing as a ballerina (50s housewife would make more sense), but I do like it in spite of that.

I like this so much!!! and i agree the text is perfect as it is aswell. 5&££

Homeschool_Winner on Aug 08 '05
That's really good! I remember that too, my mom could never say either way. If you could somehow incorporate the little girl asking her father and him saying, "Go ask your Mother"...like maybe on the back or something...that always happened to me. "Go ask your Father"..."Go ask your Mother"...but it's really cool the way it is.

i really like it on turquoise.
blandford
blandford on Aug 08 '05
the mom's dress bugs me too. Why do they have matching outfits?
cute idea though. maybe move the words to the bottom? I just dont like cartoon balloon talking unless it's really on a comic strip.

whosbrown on Aug 08 '05
Fabulous shirt...I think if you made the mom's skirt less poofy and changed her stance it would be perfect. Great work

Maybe raise the image, as well as the speech bubble?

But that's all. Otherwise awesome!

I'd like it a lot better if you loose the mother and the word bubble.
Otherwise it's just another gag shirt.

rudra
rudra on Aug 10 '05
ok - the text would be better if it was raised to or above her head - and i'd like it without the bubble around it.

mom's stance is a little funky - but i could live with that.

Homeschool Winner has the winning comment:

you need the girl alone in front of her dad (A: in a recliner, reading the paper, with a pipe, or B: standing in a suit and fedora with briefcase) and the text "go ask your mother" on the back - that would be perfection.

Thank you for the crits and comments everyone! I've read everything you guys have said and will continue to do so until the scoring is over. Everyone's been really helpful so far and you pointed out quite a few things I wouldn't have noticed myself (although I do realize I should have worked on the mother some more...she does indeed resemble a ballerina.)

sinnimaria on Aug 11 '05
a brilliant idea. i'd buy it on gold or turquoise.

dude200az on Aug 11 '05
it's great...but in my opinion i think it would be better if it was the little girl asking the father

GREAT!! SHIRT!!
fastthumbs
fastthumbs on Aug 12 '05
I like it, but as always - if you want my two cents - text isn't the best. Perhaps if the girl was clasping her hands in front of her and bending her legs a bit in the "please" position?

Then I'd buy. For now, you just get a big fat 5.

Thats a really good illustration but I just dont think it would be that good on a shirt.

Perhaps if you lose the mother and flipped the speech bubble?Because I love it with the text, just not the mom/ballerina. Hah. Good job, though!
Asrai
Asrai on Aug 12 '05
I absolutely love this one. I would like the speech bubble higher, so that it's not coming out of the mom's elbow, but even so, I would buy it because I love it and it's the best thing ever. 5$!!!!!

I don't like how the dresses match either, but otherwise it's perfect. Orange or one of the grays, maybe?

Woo! Now it's over! I wonder how it scored? :D
MysticFaerie
   MysticFaerie on Aug 14 '05
3.41...definitely not bad for a first. Thanks you guys! :)
Zachsta

Something tells me this will be printed for the 12 month club...
Solmu
Solmu on Aug 15 '05
MysticFaerie: 3.41 is good even for a 20th :)

To put that in context, here's what the last three shirts to get printed scored:

Heroes in an Art Shell - 2.88
Predicament - 3.98
Beasts - 2.78

...and a couple of recent reprints

Flowers in the Attic - 3.79
Damn Scientists - 2.77

There's a lot more to Threadless than just score ("I'd buy it" numbers, whether or not the Powers That Be like the design, etc.), but 3.41 is a lot better than "not bad".

You're welcome.

Congratulations on getting printed. I'm glad to see the ballerina issue was fixed, and with that change I think this deserved to get printed.
