Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening – Robert Frost
I think it got a little to much after awhile, but I still like it. Other colors include a baby blue shirt with dark blue print. Comments and criticism are appreciated.

This is, in my opinion, another ASTOUNDING design ruined by placement. yes, I think the design rocks and I think it’s really really good. I even like the words (rare) on the design too. But what takes me back from the who shirt is the placement. If I were you I would try a more lower section on the shirt with placement, maybe a wrap around form the back and make the design bigger, or maybe even run it up the sides as it wraps. Please play around with that and see if you can make this design that much better. Voted.
I find it wierd how a lot of people would take offense to your comment, but these are the exact things I’m looking for! Looking at it now, i could make the whole picture bigger and wrap it from left to right, so ‘but I have promises to keep’ is on the front and the picture progresses to the back for it to say ‘and miles to go before I sleep’ I love to hear feedbackfrom so many people to help make one’s designs better: the more opinions, the easier it is to see what people like! Thanks again!
I don’t think that you’re the bad guy at all! People need criticism like that! It’s how it really is in the real world, and getting opinions from other people only makes it better!
i really enjoy this, think it needs a TINY bit more work, i’d say the font is too thick. it’s a little too gritty for a “profound” statement. i’d say smaller, but keep the scratchiness though! VOTED.
I don’t like the insane feel to the text. Font like that is more suited to “all work and no play…” I think the poem is more about the tranquility of the woods and the subtle seduction of death. That aside, I registered just to vote and express my approval.
I understand what you mean; I didn’t want to use a font that someone could find online, so I tried to write one myself. I was thinking about trying cursive, but I couldn’t seem to get it. I agree with your interpretation of the poem 100%. We discussed it deeply in my Honors English class and the more I looked at it, the more I liked it. The speaker is deciding on whether to stay in the woods, his childhood, or continue and arrive at the village, becoming a adult.
I like it! The font works for me…sure it has a restless crazed feeling to it…but that’s the energy and the life of it! You’re young and not ready to be tame and sleep! I like the idea of it wrapping around though and sitting much lower on the shirt. Even if you read the second half first, it perks your interest and curiosity to see the first part on the back.
Thanks everyone for the votes so far. Just wanted to say that if this does get printed, i want to put it a lot larger and wrap it around the back of the shirt :]
I love this design, made me look up the poem itself, very inspiring, hope it wins cause I will buy it. just hope that when you do reposition the design that not only you move it down to wrap around but sort of maybe L shape the whole design so the vertical part (of the L) shows a little more sky to help make out the moon and birds in the front and the horizontal part leads to the back. hope that makes sense.
i meant to say that “as an alternative to moving it down”, instead of “not only you move it down” that way the whole design balances. (should’ve wrote that in before i posted that last comment, sorry I’m a little sleepy myself.)
laulz, i think you’re saying to kinda curve the whole design in an arc as it goes around… that’s how i’m understanding it. If not, i’m thoroughly confused.
:D lol sorry i was tired after a long day when i wrote that but yea I mean its your design so do what you want i just think if it simply was moved down it would look sorta’ boring without working the extra space in, but that’s my two cents on that, hope it helps.
ok, i know what you mean now. I still want to move it down, but you’re saying to expand the sky splats so it fills up more space. I really wish this was the printed one, but yeah, it’s always tough to get a good placement.
Nice Robert Frost Reference, I had to memorize that poem not too long ago for one of my classes. +1
I just read your comment regarding the poem guillotine, and no offense, but I had to research it and when Robert Frost was asked about what it was about (Many thought that the “Miles to go before I sleep” meant he was looking forward to death) he replied that it had snowed the night before and he just wanted to write a poem. Many of his poems are actually misconstrued as having a deeper meaning, even though that isn’t what the author intended. Another example of this would be his “Road Not Taken”.
Okay I’m done, not really here to talk about poetry, now am I? Great design though.

Nice !
