This is the 2nd day since the approval for our t-shirt design submission and we are having a good time studying the process. We didn’t put our best foot forward this go-round because we wanted to make sure we learned the game first. As of early Saturday morning, we have received 2 votes and are barely hanging on to the first voting page. As with our experience with Digg and making it to the home page there, we are going to assume that falling further down in the voting system will ensure less votes over time. In other words…..it should be over soon for us on our first submission.

Here are a few of the improvements that we can make next time:

1. Make better color selections for the shirt as it relates to the artwork.
2. Polish the design and add more detail.
3. Stick to the theme. We liked the idea of shooting stars and went with the 3D look because of the stars. Looking back now, we feel like the stars were appropriate for 3D but the guns and floral weren’t. We will probably fix the design up more and make it more western/darker for the next competition.

So it is back to the drawing boards for us. We have the next theme picked out and need to get to work. We have also learned a few secrets to the process that we will post later after we test them out some more. In the mean time, visit our site where you can custom design t-shirts for your next event.
