Imagine this on a promotional handbag, where the winning design would go.

I just wish it was smaller

I'm totally into this design. It's eye-catching, the red one pops out at you...I'm really in love with this. And it's less emo than bone-gramaphone.

As far as size is concerned, again note : HANDBAG. The T-shirt template is a necessary evil.

An excellent design, but not for a t-shirt. Would look great on a handbag, as you said, but that's not what we're designing for.

But... "Winning design will be printed on over 3,500 souvenir SXSW Interactive Big Bags for the March event!"

What's that all about?Am I wrong?

but it will also be printed on t-shirts for us to buy....that said...I like it

All I see is a nipple. If I was a guy, I wouldn't want to be wearing a third nipple.

On a more serious note, the major design flaw is that the film and the background crown thingy look completely out of place. Its pretty and all, but there's no message or meaning.

I'm not sure it even makes sense for a bag.

I would never carry this around on a promotional handbag. Sorry. This is something eerie about it. Also, it reminds me of a dog chasing its tail. Ugh!

if you wanted to portray it on a handbag, you should have put both the t.shirt and the handbag on the template [threadless doesn't seem too great about reviewing submissions; i'm sure it wouldn't be a problem] so people know the appropriate size for both. this *is* a t.shirt contest first, so it is important to have an accurate representation of your image on a shirt. the colors of the design could also use a little tweaking--they're a bit dull for the t.shirt colors you chose.

hey, this is really good.

i'm not sure what oroborous has to do with technology, other than the fact that he looks slightly robotic. i think you need to play around with the concept a little.

seriously, i don't get it.
