I don't think I have made this clear. If you are not on the list of users in my above post, you should not be voting.

Your username: <=== AraxNisanu

Contestants name: Ubertuna

Description of why: Well, out of all the entries there were only 2 or 3 that had a saying on the back/front. Out of those 2 or 3 i went ahead snd chose the one with the most creativity put behind it. I was basing my vote off of creativity not artistic ability :P

Just take out the back and put the design on a blue shirt and it's all win from there.

Now I'd buy that.

Agreeing with dank, I prefer it without the back, and it looks great as shown above...It uses a common armatar, is clean and made me smile. It has some user-made creativity combined with the style of the website, my only critique is that we might want to add .com at the end because most people won't know what Armor Games is, and if we add the .com it will make people able to come get to us easier!


Though I'd like to see a female variant on this as well.

The image on the back of the shirt has the url on it.

I'm going to say this one last time. The only people that should be voting are the users that signed up to be judges before the start of the contest. Those would be StarScreamer, Steevo15, Arax_Nisanu, Strop, DragonMistress, ubertuna, Avrilicious, Devoidless, Carlie, and NoNameC68. If you are not on that list of names, your vote will not be counted. If there is a tie, or it is decided that the number of votes given were not enough to produce an accurate result, votes from all users will be accepted.

The current standings are:

Strop: 1
ubertuna: 1
kirkus333: 0
Klaushouse: 0
Estel: 0
Njaard: 0

Your username: Carlie

Contestants name:Strop

Description of why: I love the idea that he used an armatar for his characters. It has a great flow, and I like how the cord leads over to the name of the site. The drawing is well done, and it is very creative. The bottom line is, this definitely is a shirt that I would wear.

Mmm, I just didn't find anything between the front and the back that related back to each other, so I thought the back could be omitted and the front could have the .com

I'm not voting for myself as that would be corrupt. Therefore...

Username: Strop (UT, was this really necessary? :P)

Contestant name: Ubertuna

Description of why: Geek wit. I might recommend changing the font but otherwise what better way to have people single you out as a tourist only to recoil in horror as they realise you have no life? :P

As for my own design, I actually agree with DM with the no back idea. I'm flexible with the designs anyway: I have the original files and they're easily edited. And yes, I would love to do female (...and unisex?) versions if the idea takes off.

Think about the blue shirt though is that the bottom of the design just cuts off. I'm not entirely sure what to do about that, as I was originally going to have it as an inset stripe of some sort. Again, maybe for discussion later.

Well, I don't really know why greg wanted us to put our usernames on the shirts. As for my vote, I'm trying to decide between Estel and Strop.

Well each design, with the author's permision, will be subject to change right?

Anyways...

Judge:NoNameC68
User:Ubertuna
Reason:This shirt shows off a pretty good sence of humor. It also shows clearly what kind of site ArmorGames is, a site made up of flash games. It uses some old humor with a new twist which I realy like. I litterally loled when I read the shirt.

Other than the font used on the back of the shirt being changed, I can only think of one thing that should be added. I think it would be nice to have the AG Sheild and Swords logo positioned either over or under the "ArmorGames Gamer 4 Life". Nothing to big or fancy, just a little something that will have other people who serf the net say "Oh I remember seeing that emblem on this kick-but game on Newgrounds. Maybe I will check out that site." when they see the logo from a further distance.
