1. amateurish and irrelevant for the next xpac.
2. this really is the only one that belongs on the list. only one that followed the rules for the drawing. i would remove the eternal wow from below the dragon on the front side, and move it up on the backside. no dude wants a tramp stamp.
3.didnt follow the rules, and basically just overlayed an image, but it looks alright.
4.terrible.
5.see above.
6.way too DnD.
7. did you win that playing skeeball?

Sorry! The poll messed up and I had to recreate it. As of such, the numbers reset. So, please redo your votes. If you voted before, you will be able to vote again for the picks you chose before.

this is noted on the Tshirt Design Contest thread

To clarify, right now we are looking at direct-to-garment printing which supports full color images. However, we may switch to a bulk supplier in the future, and want the design to be compatible with all printing methods (ie. screen printing). That is why we specify a maximum number of 4 colors. We will accept both full and up to 4 color images but, we prefer the latter.

[Arroncroft]

I agree, regardless of the number of votes, the ones that broke the rules should not be there. Number 2 is obviously the best one that followed the rules, and the ones that broke them were at an unfair advantage. If you're going to let people vote on them, at least put the ones that broke the rules in their own category and give out two prizes. The ones that did it right deserve their shot, too.

For the record, there are only 2 designs of the 7 listed that have more than 4 colors. The contest rules state that "After our staff selects the 5 finalists, they will all face off in a public vote for the best design. The vote period will last one week."

We selected 7 so at least 5 of these designs have "followed the rules".

Also, please note that I did state we could make exceptions for full color designs:

"To clarify, right now we are looking at direct-to-garment printing which supports full color images.

So the poll is very fair.

Wouldnt there be an issue with having the actual world of warcraft logo on the T-shirt?

Yes. as well as the logos for cata or wotlk. i was going to post about this beforehand, but everyone got upset at the comments. you cant use ANY of those logos or even the wow name without paying blizz.

not to mention the shirts like number 1 and deathwing wont print properly. they are nothing more then images taken off the web and put on that shirt image. they are not vectorized and scalable without loss of quality (for printing). you wont even be able to provide the guys at the print shop with a ai/eps/psd file they can use.

again, regardless of votes (as most people here are not too smart or young), number 2 is the only clear winner. remove the tramp stamp on the back of it and youre set.

Hi,
i just wanted to add that you' re possibly infringing some copyrights, when using those pictures of deathwing or even the WoW-Header itself.
I know mine may not look as cool as those photo-ish shirts, but at least it´s perfectly legal. (btw. meanwhile i improved mine even a bit)

if you like it, vote for that instead of the one posted above (if thats allowed .. if not,then i will remove that link again)

I betcha yours is the only one that Eternal-WoW could legally print without copyright infringement.

Just making sure everyone was on a level playing field, thanks for the reply, sonic

Number 2 looks kinda like my back design

Number 4 is very close to mine
http://www.mediafire.com/imgbnc.php/b10 ... e97b6g.jpg

Both of those i submitted before those people.

Mine is number 7 and yes it breaks the color rule, but i had many other designs that had 4 colors and the staff liked that one.

[NooneImportant]

Hi,dont want to offend you, yes it´s a dragon with an infinity shaped tail, but i think mine really looks different (and plus; i made the dragon myself )

[Dragosh12]

I would say No #2 is by far the winner. Why do i say this ? As it was seen a few post upwards, indeed all are hard to actually print while the #2 shirt would be easiest, all the others have lots of colors while the #2 has a few, and the most important rule of all clothes: SIMPLE IS THE BEST. I don't think you would like walking on the streets with a shirt that's overdecorated. Simple and efficient, simple and cool, No #2 clearly = WIN.

PS: @NooneImportant, if you left the Eternal WoW on the bottom back side of the shirt and with the same aspect and font as before, and remove the Alliance and Horde logos from the shoulders, and instead make 2 versions (1 Horde, 1 Alliance with the logo on the upper back - under the neck) i would definitely buy that shirt ! Awesome job.
