So, over on Woot!, they have a weekly design contest, based on a theme of their choice. I am constantly surprised and amazed at how SHITTY I DO THERE. Like ... so shitty! Granted, I'm not a graphic artist, and generally, the shirts that actually WIN are usually pretty amazing, but there is a shit-ton of shirts that aren't well drawn and THEY ALL DO BETTER THAN ME!

Take, for example, the theme two weeks ago was Winter. No text allowed. I came up with this



It got eleven votes. Out of a possible ... 700?

Last week was Gluttony, also no text allowed.



This one got seven votes. SEVEN! D: I realized after I'd submitted, that it might be funnier as Wafer Thin Shrimp, but yanno, maybe I would have gotten EIGHT votes. *sigh*

So, today's theme is MOTIVATION. Any ideas? Obviously none of mine are viable.
I was thinking of drawing that first prehistoric fish to take the chance of going ashore. If so, any ideas on execution?

I lack at motivating anyone so no help from me there. *loves*

I fucking love both of these shirts. I don't know WTF the other voting people are thinking. YOUR MIND, MAN. IT IS AN AWESOME PLACE.

I love the top one... :)

Very little motivates me so it would have to be something either SUPER BAD - chainsaw, the sun rising if I was a vampire, etc. or something SUPER GOOD - pool full of sweets to get me going

When I see 'Motivation,' my ONLY thoughts are of Richard Simmons with his big fro and tiny shorts. I just picture his giant face and fro waving a tiny little flag or something.

Richard Simmons. That is my motivation. :)

I have no idea.
prehistoric fish could be being chased by a shark and that's why he runs out of the water?
