This is my first sub, been a couple of weeks so I don't think they're taking it. It may be that this is just not what they're looking for. But as a newcomer, I was wondering if anything else jumps out at anyone, such as:
1) Technical issues
2) Licensing issues
3) Don't know what Excitebike is
4) Enough Star Wars already
5) Needs extra work
6) It just doesn't do it for me, dude

Thanks for taking a look, I like the design and will post it to RB unless people think it's worth working on and resubbing. Thanks for any help.

i like how the bike is poping a wheelie.
keeping the look of the excitebike cover was very clever.
Nice Job!
And @1984, I tried to keep it at roughly the same angle as the Excitebike cover, which does actually tip back the pixels. But I agree that it may be a little overdone in that the speeder bike is a lot longer than the dirt bike that it is referencing.
Also, I think the speed lines coming of the back of the Stormtropper are a bit too curvy, a bit more pixellated would be betterer.
And I'll also take note of the text. I try hard to build real connections in my MashedPotatoes instead of justing mashing up two things I like, but I agree that the text may be too cheesey.
Also, I understand now that you should expect to hear back between 2-4 weeks, if at all. I thought the timeframe was within two weeks when I posted this, so maybe I still have a chance.
But still submit it, teefury prints similar designs all the time and I can see this getting a nice stack of pancakes. But maybe lose the text. If people cant recognize its an excitebike reference without the text, then they are obviously not a fan of the game at all. I think it distracts from the scout trooper.
you know what...never mind
