Description

Every month, I do a contest of sorts for free shirts from shirt.woot.  This month I want to focus on twitter.  I will be choosing a winner the first Monday in February.  When I choose a winner, I will purchase 4 woot shirts of their choice for them.  Official rules are below.

Rules

I’m keeping in simple this time.

You must follow me on Twitter at: www.twitter.com/jtgraphic.

You need to tweet and include the following information:

• The hash tag “#jtgraphic”
• The word “contest”,
• And this URL: “http://tinyurl.com/9ov3k9“

You must leave a comment here the first time you tweet.  There’s no need to do it ever time.  Leave your twitter username in the comment too, so I know how to track you down.

Each tweet is one entry in the contest, but you are only allowed one entry per day, so please don’t spam it.

If you’re interested in joining these contests as an ongoing thing, just subscribe to my blog via the email form.

I submitted some images to this week’s shirt.woot derby for your votes.  Click the images to the left or right (depending on which you’re interested in) to vote!  If you’re looking for more information about what woot.com or shirt.woot is, please check out this video from WootTV.

This week’s submission guidelines on shirt.woot are as follows:

This derby is the first derby I’ve participated in, in a while, and I was working on a bunch of other things so they are a bit rushed.  The spring tree is a resubmission from earlier this year (I think derby #37).  I thought the butterfly was a great concept though.

So here’s the deal:

I’m going to buy your next woot shirt if I pick your name from the “bucket” for this contest.  You can enter once for each method.  You can enter using any or all of the following methods:

• Digg, Stumble, or Sphinn this post. Yeah.  The buttons are right under the post.  That’s easy.
• Mention this blog over at the woot.com forums or put a link to it in your signature.
• Subscribe to the RSS feed THROUGH feedburner so I can verify your email address.
• Write a blog post or tweet about me, this blog, or this post.

Make sure you leave a comment and tell me which ones you did.  I’ll tally everything next Monday and pick a winner.  I’ll buy the current woot, reserve the buy until the next shirt you want, or get a reckoning shirt.  If you have questions, leave a comment.

We’re coming up on shirt.woot.com Derby #37: Greed. They’re offering up $1000.00 for first place in this derby and each derby to follow, thus the theme. I’ve submitted the two shirts you see here, so please stop by and vote on them! Both designs are the result of a hybrid idea that I just couldn’t get to look right. I decided to break the hybrids apart and do them separately. I really like the green on brown look a lot. Please let me know what you think.

In the last derby, I placed 13th, up quite a bit from any progress I made before. I’d like to think I did a decent job, but really I think it was because it was such a tough set of rules to work with. There were some really great shirts, but I don’t think everyone was banging on all cylinders for that one.

How do you think the submissions compare?

EDIT:  Both submissions were rejected

The “Blood Money” submission was rejected for having text (on the bill), and the “Ben Frankibal” submission wasn’t greedy enough.

I just submitted my first shirt.woot.com shirt design ever. If you’re a wooter, please vote for it. Click on the image to the right.

I hope to be a part of every derby going forward. Maybe some day I’ll win. Who knows…
