Connect The Dots!



A traditional connect-the-dots during the day with super-glow ink for the night when the robot comes to life!

and for added geekdom, instead of regular numbers, the connect-the-dot is binary code that actually spells "robot"!

thanks to mano for the template - page 1 is shirt during the day, 2 is what the super-glow will look like at night, and 3 is a little bit of detail of both day and night designs.

thanks to everyone who helped on the critique!

thanks agrimony - i thought in my comment mentioning the different pages would get it across, but i probably should have made it clearer. anyway, you and me both mentioning it now will hopefully point everyone the right way! thanks to everyone who's voted and commented so far!

Excellent! I love the design of this. If you have time please be sure to give my design "Hermit House Hunt" that is currently in the running a good score and comment also. Thanks!

haha@having almost the same name minus the pun as a collab of mine! Totally different idea here, love the fantastic use of the glow colors and illo of the robot itself. I'd like even less lines that make up the robot in the daytime, so it almost looks like a ton of random dots on your body.

oh yes, i remember this in the critique session :) nice work!!! i see that the suggestions helped ! :)

I remember seeing this in the blogs, so I new about the glow-in-the-dark, but even knowing that it was there (and worth seeing), I had a really hard time getting to it. This template is really hard for me to navigate (the buttons keep disappearing when I try to click on them!) I hope other people don't have the same problem.

glow-in-the-dark is not transparent, in fact, it's very "neon" but even if it were neon, it'd still wear this.

Awesome!! A great idea and a very good use of glow ink. 5!

sorry you had problems with the template mismonaut - I unfortunately know very little flash (something i'm working on at the moment) so i used the flash template mano provided in his blog, which is set up like this. Robsoul, I know they show up slightly but according to the shirt sample threadless put up in the blogs, onyl the red is really neon during the day, the others are an off white. I worked off that so I hope it's ok! Thanks for all the comments and votes so far - the support is great!

I love the glow in the dark ink on this design! The "start/finish" text makes your design look more like a connect-the-dots puzzle, but i feel like they'd look a little clunky during the day.
jack_of_hearts
Love it! Print it for me, now!
ninopolisel
hehe i find this very funny, and both idea and execution are great.. the colors are awesome.. i'd love to see how the glowing effect would work, but anyhow, thats a 5$ for me (:
