THAT is nice. Those drop shadows really make the art float. Well done.

Donnie, is that a shot of a print or the artwork?  

If it's a shot of a print, damn the grain in those bats looks like real wood.

And I love the 'scuffed' look of the ball.  Nice.

Looks great, nice job, the dimension in the art makes it float for sure.  I like the way that sounds, the design floats on the shirt, I'm going to have to use that one, if you don't mind :)

I can't stop looking at that.  It's awesome.  Did you underbase on that ash?

Soft drop shadows on any medium-colored shirt look great, but I especially like 'em on athletic gray shirts . . . maybe it's the variegated pattern of the shirt that just adds more interest, or the fact that it's such a neutral color that it makes the printed colors pop.
Again, kudos to you and the artist.

That is a stunning print, especially for only six colors.  Great job!
