    Most of my ride are before work (in the dark) so .... LOL. Safety is a concern for me.

    Ham(m)er's "yesterday/today" design is cool! I'm anxious to see what she does with the back of the jersey. What a great idea.

    There are some amazing submissions. I think I like them all!

    I really like the concept of that jersey--where we've been and where we're going. Very nice. Very original.

    But, I'm not convinced of the implementation. I'm not artistic, but I wonder if you did yesterday on the front and today on the back (or vice versa) instead of trying to squeeze them both on the same side? And/Or maybe change the style more than just black/white--do yesterday ala' Retro Image and do today in a modern style? Hey, I said I had no concept of art...

    Oh, and, mayanorange--I keep logging in looking for Version 2. I can't imagine you'll top version 1, but I keep looking...

    There is one design I really like (not mine ) but there are parts of it I don't like.
    I would like to see elements of some designs incorporated with others.

    Thorn- It'll probably be tomorrow by the time I get to it. Should be faster since it's a modification sort of, but I still take forever trying to get these things right.

    I'm still not 100% happy with Version 1, but it gets the general idea across. I was hoping for long and winding road starting in green rolling hills or similar, then ending up at a city at sunset, but I couldn't get it look quite right in photoshop. Though now I really like the bike design, so I'm going to focus on that for the next iteration.

    I'm totally open to suggestions if anyone has any!

    Thorn - That would be a good idea too, splitting the yesterday/today idea into two different images and potentially two styles.

    I'm working on the back panel... it's not drawing out like I thought that it might. We'll see how it goes.

    I wish that I was able to work it out in illustrator, making changes and adjustments would be easier in that program instead of photoshop.

    mayanorange: +1 I like the stylized bike! Very cool.
