I agree. I totally missed that the tree was smiling too. Really cute otherwise.

I would change the eye and mouth color to something more visible, mabey black or white, and mabey show grass pushing up around the root, to make it a little more clear.

cute, I could tell that it was a root, but I didn't see the tree smiling until it was mentioned here. 4. :]

I know the design is massive... but the original (designed with good size) got denied because it was 'too small'.

Hmm...
Maybe it just needs a more compact graphic.

Thanks for the comments so far, btw.

omg the giving tree I read it in 1st grade! Thats exactly what I thought the second I looked at it.

yeah, it really reminded of the giving tree, i like it. i think a more pronounced smile on the tree would be better, though.

It looks really good. Some of the first comments said the root doesn't look like a root, I disagree, I recognized that instantly. Sometimes a split second delay gives the shirt more meaning. But I will agree that the face could use a makeover. 5$

Cute.

I love "The Giving Tree".


Nice. I would consider buying. Nah, I'd buy it.

I like the idea and the alteration of Mr. Silverstiens book. However, I don't see wearing it. I still give it a 4 because the thought while not totally original , it sure beats secoond hand opinion liberal political statements and over done text, blood, crows, and CMYK.

Nice picture, but I find the root a bit weird. Make the assistance to be a branch of the tree?

this is very adorable and I hope it gets printed.

so cute! and clever! i like it a lot but i think it could work better without the face on the tree, or the text i think it the picture itself (minus face and words) says everything! joys of simplicity..and makes people think about it more too
love it a lot!

Although it took me only about a split second to understand that it was a root, I would agree with the crits about the smile--white would probably make for a better contrast. You get a 5 and buy from me, it's too sweet!
