I don't normally do "funny" designs but sometimes ideas come to me, I did this an hour ago and thought it was on to something.

But then when I started googling for names of the shirt (darth side of the moon), I found that it's been done before.

It's disheartening but I do feel executionally my design makes more sense. So should I trash this or sub (at the risk of being called a rip)?

yeah I'd say so. It doesn't matter how well you do this, if the concept is the same someone out there will instantly call rip on you just because they can.

I would trash it. No offense, as I do dig the idea, but it has been done and it would be called a rip (as much I do believe you hadn't seen it before).
There's also this;

Ok then seems like this goes to the trash bin. It was good while it lasted for a an hour and a half. haha.
Aarrgh this is why i hate doing funny/clever shirts because someone else is a lot cleverer/funnier than you think are!
Maybe I should sell it to the guys who did the first shirt haha.

I wouldn't bother with it
true story: I actually had the same idea last week, googled it just like you did and came up with the same design :(
my version would have had Darth Vader's helmet just like that design but...well better lol

I hate rip, but i would says keep it, yours is better, and you have the same idea so?
i don't think it can stop you, it's not the same darth vader, anyway, if we continue like that in some days, we cannot design anything cause all will be made.
(Sorry for my english)
That's my opinion

I´ve done loads of stuff only to find the same idea somewhere else, never mind, back to the drawing board.

i've said it before, and i'll say it again....
everyone wants to be original, but chances are someone else has already done it
i don't care if someone says rip, unless it's a blatant copy/rip then they can eat my lower left and right one

This is a problem. It's clean, and simple, and quirky but funny, and recognizable, and easy to name... should I keep going? It just <i>is</i> a t-shirt design. I love it! It's perfect in so many ways. So conflicted.
(Oh shit! Darth is even triangular! Arggghhhh...)

This is a huge fail, you don't need that star wars, floyd shit, you have a beautiful mind use it.
I would like to see you start to draw your own, rather then use photos, even if you think it's complete shit, I think you are missing out by not going that route, I think you have the skills to pick it up better then you let on. You can do it pal.
