Welovefine T-Shirt Contest Winners

YOUR FACE
Everyone... This is seriously the greatest shirt ever.  When Phoe gave me a list of shirts that she liked, and I saw this one, I knew it was destiny.  Discordshy is best pony. ALL MY VOTES.

Oh what's that? You wanted the first place winner too? Here you go!

That page!
It seems like smug ponies are the current trend.  This is clearly shown in Bronyville's choice: 

Once again, The Great and Powerful Trixie has proven herself to be the most amazing unicorn in all of Equestria
I totally didn't bribe them to pick the Trixie shirt.  Nope, didn't happen. 

I heard a rumor yesterday that our 10% coupon code has expired.  I haven't tried it myself, but give it a shot anyway.

that Dash's eye is just awful. way to ruin a shirt.

Tyranoman said...

Oh my gawd, that Flutterbitch one.
Must have.

MlpCrazedBronie said...

What is discordshy? I sure hope you mean Flutterjerk.

Over the Rainbow said...

Omg Flutterbitch....
Take my money.

pixelkitties said...

THANK YOU so much for choosing my Flutterjerk shirt, Seth! You helped make this the best Turkey Day ever for little old me!

Over the Rainbow said...

@pixelkitties

You designed that?
I LOVE it. Probably getting one for my boyfriend for Christmas. It's perfect.

DemonKaizoku said...

Was a bit disappointed in these choices. Don't get me wrong, the Flutterjerk is probably the only best one, since I voted for it, too. But, I personally felt CrappyUnicorn's oriental-styled Discord deserved a win. The design was quite creatively well-done.

I don't know, compared to it and some others I liked, the Trixie and RD ones seem a bit... plain. Okay, I guess, but just plain.

There were definitely much better entries that deserve to win, in my honest opinion.

Nyashkawaiik said...

I need the money. A lot of money.

DemonKaizoku said...

@pixelkitties

Congrats, Pixel! I knew one of your designs would win. I had a feeling Flutterjerk was a strong possibility. XD

Kaijyuu said...

Damn. My favorite shirt didn't win.

(that would be Trixie's "watch in awe" shirt)


I voted 5s for the Rainbow Dash peek shirt, and for the fluttershy your face shirt, though. Those are definitely awesome.

LukeZ said...

First one, ROFLMAO BEST SHIRT

Second one, BETTER BEST SHIRT

Third one, Lame shirt.

Harwick said...

That is a nice selection of shirts. Love the Fluttershy one (oustanding job, pixelkitties!), and the Trixie one is pretty cool looking. I like the Dash one as well, but it's not really for me.

Takata said...

Anypony else thinks that the Trixie shirt would look better as a poster?

Floof Cat said...

I really didn't think they'd accept the "Your Face" shirt because of the neck print, but Welovefine has just earned some respect from me... might pick that one up, along with the Pinkie Portal shirt...

Celestia said...

The first is great, I really like the idea.

The second is good but the eye looks a little off.

The third is fairly good though not my favourite.

pixelkitties said...

Thanks, everypony! It means a lot that so many of you liked my silly shirt design! I really, REALLY appreciate your kindness!

Biglulu said...

The coupon code is expired. I tried buying from WeLoveFine with it yesterday.

hyreia said...

I think the third one -is- supposed to look like a poster. Which would be a pretty cool thing too, I think: a Trixie poster.

Travis Smith said...

"The eye"
"That eye"
I love the first one, second already explained, third is pretty cool
I should look for a Shadowbolt Dash shirt

MegaPatron said...

Flutterjerk :_:....love and Tolerate i guess XD

Masquerade said...

@pixelkitties
Is there anything you can't do? Awesome shirt. Makes me want to be open about my bronyism (just in time for Christmas!).

Here's a riddle...
How do you make an awesome pony shirt?
Break ALL the fouth walls!

anjila said...

HOLY CRAP

The most I was expecting was maybe a runner-up spot, if I was lucky. Not first place!!

I'm absolutely floored. I did not deserve to win, that's for sure. There were so many other amazing entries that should've won instead, like the Pony Singularity (not even an honorable mention, what?), Ponies Go!, and that Trixie one above.

Also, I would've totally fixed Dash's eye, had someone mentioned it to me. Nobody ever pointed it out beforehand, though, so I assumed it was fine.

Flutterguy said...

I was about to buy something with the 10% off coupon too. That ad was what brought me to we love fine in the first place, I think it would be better for everyone if it was reinstated.

Blu Cup said...

The promo code has in fact reached its limit. I tried it yesterday. =\

Y NO ONE VOTE FOR MORE LUNA SHIRTS!?!

bronydash said...

That Flutterbitch shirt is awesome. I might just buy that one when I finally get around to buying a pony shirt. The other one were... Well, they were good, but not as great as I was expecting after the last design contest. I'd also like to point out that they did a shadowbolts version of the wonderbolts shirt from last time and I think Dash looks better with her eye like that. Just saying.

King9 said...

Aw man. There were so many designs I liked more than those. "But, um, whatever you want to do is fine."

SgtGarand said...

Definitely going to get the Your Face shirt. I may also get the Pinkie Portals one if they give more colors.

Figment said...

I am not happy with the first place winner. As people have said, that eye ruins it. Besides, there were so many other choices that would have been better.

Alex Castro said...

@Takata
Me.
I must say, I did not expect to see Trixie's design there, I mean there were a couple Trixie themed designs out there that were simply MUCH better than this, I see it too overloaded, too many things in one design, indeed looks more as a poster than a shirt.

But the other two are awesome, I personally thought the "pony pocket" one was gonna be the first hehe

Alex Castro said...

I also love how almost none of the shirt that won followed the contests guidelines, as they are all bigger, or out of the place they asked people to put the designs in. "Place design in the box" my ass xD

Protip for next contest: Don't follow the guidelines.
lmao

Synyk said...

Ugh I could have won with my t-shirt design.

I also have hood designs and Tanktop designs.

Why didn't I enter? *shame*

DashAttack said...

I'm not gunna lie, I'm slightly disappointed with the designs that won. Grats to the winners, of course, but I there were some other designs that I thought for sure might have won.

And I totally bought the Shadowbolts jersey. :D

Nyx said...

damn i wish i knew about this before i got all of those shirts a few days ago i would've definitely picked a few of these over the others. :(

OtterMatt said...

It is expired. I tried to use it to buy one last night, and it turned me down. Bummer, though it was only a $2.50 savings.

Phantom240 said...

Flutterbitch WAS best pony... Was.

Killsteal_Wolf said...

I Do believe that Dash is giving me, what is otherwise known as, the "Dreamworks Smirk".

Check the site and see the Runners Up as well, the Shadowbolts shirt is making my choices harder.

Also it is now required that if you wear the Soaking Wet and Clueless shirt, you have to wear a bucket and have a Wet Mane.

Bronyville said...

Hey Gang - Apple Cider from Bronyville here,

I understand there is some disappointment in the contest winners during this round. I wanted to clear the air just a bit about the process. WLF gave us a selection of contest entries and we selected the top 5 choices. Of those WLF then chose our winners likely based off votes, the image printability, etc. The Trixie shirt was certainly in our list and Chef and I stand by the pick. I think it's a well made shirt.

Don't take this in any way as us slagging on WLF. We love those guys and they gave us the opportunity to judge a contest for them which was awesome. Sometimes the things you want most don't win. Starry Night had one design she really loved which didn't make it. In the end - instead of being big grumpy-lumps about which choices were made and instead look at how awesome it is that we can have a contest like this and celebrate those who did win for their accomplishments?

Harwick said...

@anjila
Congrats on the first place achievement! The winners always get a little bit of flack from people who were strong boosters of other contenders, but it's a big accomplishment to have a professional company that knows their business pick your design as the one they want to go with. I think Dash's expression is fun, myself, as are the concept and execution of the whole design.

Great job, and congrats again!

ndrazzar said...

oh god the flutterbitch shirt
shut up and take my money! (please)

ZeroCereal said...

Flutterbitch shirt, you say?

Here's my life savings. How many does it get me?

acousticbrony said...

Aww a Dash shirt won the last one, I was hoping to see one with another pony make it, nevertheless that is a great shirt, I'll probably get that some time soon.

DemonKaizoku said...

@anjila

Personally, I think like some people, it would be hard to purchase for the error. Is there any chance you could fix the eye, get back to WeLoveFine about it, for them to update? I think people would be more comfortable with purchasing or embracing it, that way.

DemonKaizoku said...

@Bronyville

Of course it's great these people won. When I stated my opinion, it wasn't as if it was in spite. 'Grats to them, truly.

As I stated in my own opinion, I thought there were other MUCH BETTER designs that should have won, instead. I love Flutterjerk made it, but that was about it.
Each of us are biased and have our own opinion. So, of course we have our own preferences for shirt choices, let alone winners.

For me, I would have just liked to have seen more creative or nicer designs have won. Flutterjerk was within this category for me, at least. Again, I'm just going on my own biased opinion. I was just more surprised with the results, than anything.

Kaiser said...

71$ for one shirt and postage to Sweden. Ouch.

Will have to pass on these, those postage costs are nuts.

Zealestia said...

YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE YOUR FACE etc.

Heliotrope said...

Yeah, $46 for shipping to Australia. For one shirt. Wat.

I'd love to get some shirts but that shipping cost is amazing! And Prohibitive.

Nameless said...

As expected, none of the ones I liked got in, and I wouldn't consider buying any of those winners.

Octavia said...

Oh my goodness, that Discord'd Fluttershy shirt is now one of my favorites for sure. Definately one of the ones I want the most as well.

I also like the Trixie shirt. Because Trixie. <3

Tears of a Valedictorian said...

For international people: the default postage costs are insane, but that's for ups tracking. There's another option for cheaper postage, think I paid $38 for a shirt, and as the dollar's pretty much the only currency the pound is strong against right now, that's like £25, which ain't bad for shirt + intl shipping.

Congrats to the winners, I adore the jerkshy tee.

Baylor The Green &amp; Blue Pikachu said...

What I don't understand is why guidelines and rules were given if the judges don't enforce them and pick them as the winners. That's not to say that they weren't good designs; they were beautiful. Just next time enforce the rules rather than limit our creativity then yank the rug out from under our feet in favor of ones that broke regulations.

Scotty A said...

Interesting comments!
Thanks very much, Bronyville!

Altherix said...

Could it be, I might actually be willing to buy a Non-Luna shirt?

Love the Discordshy one, Dash has got me interested too.

Toonicorn said...

Congrats to all of the winners! I especially like the Rainbow Dash shirt, and, FWIW, I don't have a problem with her expression. She's always been kind of snarky, so I think it fits her. :)

The Numberman said...

Damn I could really use the coupon code now that the Aussie dollar isn't as strong. I really like them all TAKE MY MONEY.

Unknown said...

oh god. discord fluttershy. why? TT_TT

SolarWind ( Kaya ) said...

This would especially hilarious if I walked around school with this shirt considering "Your Face" has been my catchphrase/signature comeback for the past three years. XDXDXD

DJ VS-3 said...

These ones are alright, but the real winner should have been the "Fluttershy turns into butterflies" shirt.

Might get the RD one though...

PopulaJoy said...

A-are there any Fluttershy tees too?

PopulaJoy said...

I mean normal FS tees
