uhhh... SirSpiffness, if this guy copied you, then you must have copied THIS guy. http://www.threadless.com/submission/63383/Rocktopus

seriously, the only similarity here besides the title is the use of an octopus which is hardly original to begin with.

i'm truly amazed at the level of maturity here. so much for constructive criticism.

yeah, too many octopus/octopi designs..

never on Apr 14 '06
yeah, too many. there's just no more room in this place for octopi, especially if they're creative and original designs. i should just give up designing forever because some children on threadless are sick of the subject matter.

umm, steppoff... the ones with photo's of t-shirts... have you noticed that lots of them are the same photo with different shirts? people photoshop them onto the shirt so the voters can get a better idea of what the shirt would look like. its not alread been produced.

i like the rocket... like the tentacles too, but they seem to come a little too close together near the rocket, it looks anatomically incorrect for an octupus, ha ha

I really dig this, but I would prefer it without the clouds.
Like that people there would be a double read; either a rocketsquid in the sea or a squidrocket in the air.

Reminds me of the video by The Darkness with the giant squid attacking the ship.

4.. only because i have a fear of tentacles. =/

okay, stepoff, designers photoshop the designs onto photos of solid color shirts so it's easier to get a look at what the shirt might look like IF it were printed- they definitely do not print the shirt and then submit the design somewhere else. your comment was pretty stupid.

i see nothing wrong with octopi/octopuses in designs; it's only unfortunate for you if you happen to submit an octopus design at the height of some sort of octopus frenzy, cause then people will get tired of the theme. don't worry about biting off anybody's design, never, cause you didn't. the design is fine. i just think the rocket could use a little work- it looks kind of crooked near the tip.

THINK before you SPEAK, people!

The colors don't work well for me ad I don't think others would get it. It's like this shirt I own that reads "I have the dark cooties", It makes for random awkward conversations with strangers who smell bad and I'd never want to talk to ever.
