ReplyDelete>Pony fashion is serious business!
ReplyDeleterarity would back this sentiment.
Servers to be re-exploded in 3... 2...
ReplyDeleteI want that shirt!!!
ReplyDeleteFINALLY!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteA SHIRT THAT I WILL PAY MONEY FOR!!!!!!!!!!!
OMIGOSHOMIGOSHOMIGOSHOMIGOSHOMIGOSH!!!
Anyone else getting security certificate errors with that link?
ReplyDeletei did
ReplyDeleteI got a security error as well, but it is the same domain as it has previously been. It should still be safe, but the link does not appear to be working.
ReplyDeleteI already did my voting a day or two ago, I hope this doesn't mean they lost my votes. Anyway, there were very few actually good shirt designs, lots of designs that wouldn't have been possible on a standard screen-printed shirt, and many shirts that appeared to just be (possibly some-one else's) fan art. I'm not too excited by the competition, although I did vote on every last one.
ReplyDeleteWrap Up...i c wat u did thar
ReplyDeleteWe are crashing it again, aren't we?
ReplyDeleteConfound those bronies! They drive sites to unprotected crash fun!
Yep, lots of srs business on those T-shirts. And lots of Rainbow Dash, too!
ReplyDeleteOoooooh, is that a Wonderbolts T-shirt what I see? Rainbow would most certainly want. Wow, pretty cool stuff now on T-shirt form!

ReplyDelete@kirbycolours
ReplyDeleteYes, I do concur.
Also that "Classy Gummy" shirt is fab-u-lous.
ReplyDeleteFinally!
ReplyDeleteI'm probably going to be the only one that requests it, but...
ReplyDeleteI would really like a polo with ponies, if it's possible.
You know, like having a small cutie mark on the breast or something?
@Rarity
ReplyDeleteOne of the most accurate phrases that our dear Rarity will ever say... or write. That Gummy shirt was great.
Damn these U.S-only stuff. Otherwise I could buy a shirt or two.
ReplyDeleteThey were nice enough to send me a personal email about my design saying that although they liked its, it was a little much for Hasbro's marketing (which I had a feeling it was anyway).
ReplyDeleteNice of them to say so though. :) Can't wait to see the winners.

They don't take PayPal.
ReplyDeleteI'll never be able to buy a tshirt from there.
Fitting two Rainbow Dash quotes in to one shirt even though they dont even connect is very lame.
ReplyDeleteI want a shirt with Pinkie Pie floating around in space in a spacesuit, with the text "SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!"
ReplyDelete*oggles shirt for a good minute*
ReplyDeleteMy money! Just take it! XD
No Paypal? But whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
ReplyDeleteSite doesn't work for me, it tells me to refersh IP settings.
ReplyDeletei got the same as anon above
ReplyDeleteWelovefine is US only? good thing I got buddies in the US.
ReplyDeleteFINALLY
ReplyDeleteso many shirts to rate...
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteGot this problem as well, definitely in the US. WTF?
I can't make an account to vote. It just keeps telling me that it is getting a parsererror. I'm a sad pony.
ReplyDeleteI WANT THE AAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
ReplyDeleteCURSES THEY HATE NON USA BRONIES
ReplyDelete@Bugsydor
ReplyDeleteNevermind, it works now.
I would also like a bright pink shirt with Pinkie Pie (cut off) peeking over the bottom of the shirt.
ReplyDeleteI know you guys are probably reading this: Your male shirts suck. Do something about it.
ReplyDeleteWhat are you guys talking about?
ReplyDeleteI live in Europe and just registered, then started rating the shirts.
The contest is US only but anyone can place orders outside US.
ReplyDeleteHopefully whatever shirt wins the contest will be better than their stuff. The second wave of shirts (which included mens' sizes!) were significantly better than the first wave, but $30.50 plus tax delivered is pretty darn steep.
ReplyDeletehow i'm rating:
ReplyDelete5 - take my money immediately
4 - i'd love to see it in your store and would buy it
3 - it's a cool design and i'd like it in the store but i personally wouldn't buy it
2 - nice effort but unoriginal/boring/too simple etc.
1 - no.
link no working
ReplyDeleteNeed... Money...
ReplyDeleteTO THE BLACK MARKET!
I only need one kidney.
I get the IP error... I can access the main page through a proxy service but I can't vote through it... wtf. Is anyone else having these issues?
ReplyDeleteISP is Time Warner, but they're hating on my IP address for some reason or other.
Found some more shirts :D.
ReplyDeleteI was looking over all the entries last night. There are some truly great choices in that lineup. It's certainly going to be hard to choose only one.
ReplyDeleteI keep getting the "this site is untrusted" and when I try to go through google it says they moved. Which sucks, because not only did I want to vote, but now I can not get their super cool X-men Gambit shirt. Nyarrrrg.
ReplyDeleteAlso, to the company, please put more of your designs in men shirts. Not just for the guys but you know, some girls are too busty to fit in your female "juniors" sizes. :/ Need Pinky Pie shirts.
yeah I also have a problem accessing the site.
ReplyDeleteGetting the same IP or whatever issue that others are getting
ReplyDeleteIs anyone else having issues commenting on certain shirts?
ReplyDeleteI like the pocket ponies and silhouette shirts best.
ReplyDeleteAnd I think the ones where your head replaces the pony's are really weird.
TO ALL HAVING IP ERRORS:
ReplyDeleteJust flush your DNS cache. This happens often when websites move their server, etc.
Anyways, in Windows, type the following into command prompt:
C:>ipconfig /flushdns
I don't know for other operating systems but it's really easy to Google how!
Y'know, now I'm wondering how my design (RBD mugshot got rejected) and yet an "I WATCH IT FOR THE PLOT" design made it through.
ReplyDeleteHurr. :B

@GameBuddy
ReplyDeleteI don't get that either. xD Maybe they didn't understand what "plot" referenced to in the design...?
I sent them a fifth design and they didn't put it up there, nor did I receive an e-mail about why it's not there. The design wasn't even inappropriate! >:T I probably gave them my PNG version of it but I could have sworn I gave them my JPEG. D:
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteThey were probably very overwhelmed. Even after all this time, there are still some repeat copy/paste designs.
~Buddy Vox
Just finished rating every one of them, and it sure was a shame there were so many 3's and below, and the really terrible ones seemed to have the most repeats. The 5's and a couple 4's were definitely worth sifting through the ugly fonts and crayon fan-art, though.
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time I've seen any of the shirts. Sadly, I have to be honest in saying I wouldn't want to wear any of them. :(
ReplyDeleteI guess t-shirts just aren't really my thing.
Frankly, I don't really care for ANY of the designs, with the possible exception of the Rainbow Dash one with the rainbow trail that circles all the way around the shirt. That one's okay. But not a single decent Rarity shirt in the bunch, and Fluttershy's were all dumb too.
ReplyDeleteFor my part, if Welovefine would just make the Rarity "Deal With It" shirt in men's sizes, I'd be happy.
Just checking through them... and oh god, just how many times do I have to read "20% cooler" in one variation or other? There are other things you can put in a RD shirt! Granted, I'm not much of a RD fan but is that really the only thing people (want to) remember about her?
ReplyDeleteSo far I've found two that I'd wear: the APONYcalyptica Octavia one, and Classy Gummy. The Canterlot Celestia/Luna ones were simple and quite good too.
...and that's about it though.
Eh. I guess they should just make the Rarity "Deal With It" for guys ;)
I think it crashed again...confound those bronies.
ReplyDeleteI want the Dumb Fabric shirt so bad.
ReplyDeleteI need this shirt :D.
ReplyDeleteIt'll make me 20% cooler in 10 seconds flat..
I wonder who's the author of this RD t-shirt art? Need his DA page so badly.
