Thank You!
All this fuss about a shirt.

I hope u fish that plug..

JBird,
These things for sale or what.
Too much reading; feel like I'm back in college.
I can see this much discussion if we were all buying SB.com three-piece-suits, but for a shirt?
I'm sure I probably just said something that offended somebody there so I will conclude with a very nice goodbye.
I love you all!
Super Happy Non-denoinational Vanilla Rickman:thanks:

If you dont want input dont ask. If you ask for input, then input you will get. There has been alot of good suggestions about shirt design in this thread. And that is called good input!

Please attempt to be more consise as to why/how the shirt does not represent the site. Thanks.
I think one or more of you "inputers" have a bone for the owners of the plug companies who's logo's are shown.

JohnR 09-24-2006 05:23 PM

What I really don't want is the shirt to be a flaming / pi$$ing contest. PLease, it is supposed to be a good thing :tooth:


Thanks!

John:spidey: :ss:

Backbeach Jake 09-24-2006 05:33 PM

It IS a good thing! I'll buy one and like NIB says, I'll probably spill coffee all over it. I always do....:o Oh yeah, keep the sponsors. I pretty sure that they are a major reason that we all get to play here, give'em credit. You too, JohnR! Thanks!

GoFish 09-24-2006 06:32 PM

Just do it!
 
Thanks for making the effort. You can't please everyone but will sell a bunch. You can always run another design in a year or three. Thanks for busting your a$$ to support a great site.

Go read what myself and others have posted, and you shall find why we believe it doesnt represent the entire site.

I've said it's a cool shirt, just not one that totally represents the site.

Just print the damn shirts and be done with it! :rotfl:

Regaurding the thread ? nope

Less is more. .02

bloocrab 09-25-2006 02:17 AM

I would have tossed some art/suggestions your way but I'm afraid they'd all be too explicit, remember..I'm the one who wants an R-rated site :D.......I think it's pretty cool though. I'd actually like the design on the front so I can see it while I'm wearing it......I hate carrying around 2 mirrors...:rotf2: Make one especially for me like that...and I'll buy it. :uhuh:

Seriously though, stick to your plan - I think the majority of members would buy one. Take pre-orders and see if it fills up. If it does fine........if not....:crying:

striper97 09-25-2006 03:07 PM

Nice shirt. I'm not much of a plugger myself but i would still buy a couple shirts to support this site. You've worked hard for this site and i appreciate that. This site has given me hours of enjoyment and carries me through the long winter. Do the shirt and you'll sell plenty

chris L 09-25-2006 03:30 PM

john
you have put in alot of time on this project. make the shirts ... they will sell no doubt about it . would I buy some ? probably ! I like the concept and the art work is nice . a pocket would be nice other wise it is a winter shirt for me . I would rather not have the sponsers name on there but thats just me I remove the name on my truck too . so make em

I wear large .

someone said that the hats went to longtime posters hey as a long long time poster of some seriously useless info how come I didnt get a hat ?

OH AND RICK MAN YOUR A RACIST ( vanilla rick ) !
chocolate steve , coffee artuk , cherry longbow and lemon ben see what I mean

RickBomba 09-25-2006 04:35 PM

I figured you'd be ranting about somebody taking your lucky charms,
Vanilla Ricks, Lemon Bens, Blue Clovers...:laugha:

NIB 09-25-2006 05:52 PM

Whats the problem with the sponsers.
I don't get it.
they want to help out with the cost's thats good
they keep this site alive..Thats better.

macojoe 09-25-2006 06:15 PM

Swimmer
 
I think I gt that from here on this site? I like the design!

But it might be copy right? Just used it for ex sample.

Like I said, on a site this big, John should have the moderators and himself (board of directors) make the shirt and sell them thats it, you like you buy, if no then you no buy.

I don't think anyone has a problem with the sponsors NIB.
It's just the huge logos don't seen to belong on the shirt with the nice picture, that is all. Has nothing to do with the sponsors themselves, we all know they want to help the site.

Slipknot 12-15-2006 07:43 PM

are these ever gonna be made John?
make them and they will buy them

JohnR 12-15-2006 07:58 PM

Bruce - I'm looking into a smaller run but I can't go and drop 1700-2K on the shirts the way I would have needed to in order to buy them the way I wanted. I'm looking into a few protos first...

Skitterpop 12-15-2006 09:11 PM

Do two versions....one for the sponsors and one for the down home garage/shed/cellar builders....that should cover both ends.

Yeah. That would help me justify buying two. I remember when I had style. Now it's t-shirt, hoody, jeans and work boots everyday. A t-shirt with a print is about as stylish as I get these days. These shirts can be my goin out shirts. I'll wear one on casual fridays and one on SATURDAY NIGHTS.:buds:

Clammer 12-15-2006 09:24 PM

I,ll front S/B >COM / the money /but not that shirt // it looks like its for the plug guys only //or a shirt that was made for a special time ;;

I know a girl that is making ALOT} of money on E/B /because she has access to unsolds shirts // mostly biker flings :confused:

Keep It Simple

that would sell well in hawaii :lurk:

The SB logo like on the top of the page, or one like the sticker, small logo on the front, light blue, or green shirt (hell, even gray) :).. I know, the boss hates it, but, way to go IMHO, and ya don't look like yer wearing a hawaiin shirt.

JohnR 12-15-2006 09:34 PM

Guys - you all would not beleive the amount of time I have put into that shirt. THe design I came up with was far too divisive, I'm not going to start that argument again. A lot of people liked it, a lot jumped up on my stink. I just don't feel like going down that road again at this time....

We'll address this a bit later...

Thanks....

fishnfool 12-16-2006 01:15 AM

John,
Im In for 4 shirts(3x). please PM me when you are ready to place the order I can send $$$ via paypal if need be. Great design :claps:

Im not sure when Ill be back to the site My dad died this morning and Im the oldest and need to be with the family. Ill will see a PM via my email and will respond thru that.

hope everyone has a safe and healthy Holiday.

Joe

Raven 12-16-2006 06:59 AM

all this talk and no action:rocketem:

Raven 12-16-2006 07:00 AM

and i'd shoot that pit bull puppy too.:nailem::nailem:

Slipknot 12-16-2006 07:13 AM

clammer and others, John first set these up for the plug guys, so that is why there is plugs all over it. I guess maybe he should have first posted the question in the plug forum so as not to get so much criticism :wall:
sorry to bring it back up John, just thought maybe they could be ready by plugfest 2007 since nothing happened in 06, I realize you put alot of thought into these and it's appreciated. thanks


Joe, very sorry for your loss :(

Thom 12-16-2006 08:00 AM

Let me know where to send the check or money order I would like a few of those. ThomT

redneck24 12-16-2006 08:34 AM

im in for an xxl

JohnR 12-16-2006 08:59 AM

Guys - not taking any orders at this point. IF there is a run of these shirts I will have a second thread on it but it won't be until after the New Years...

reelecstasy 12-16-2006 10:18 AM

Nice work JohnR, I can appreciate all the time you must have in on these puppies.

Roger 12-16-2006 11:33 AM

John,
I think it a fabulous piece of artwork and would make a heck of a poster for the next plug fest with only a minor amount of tweaking.

As a t-shirt I'd have bought one to support the site, but probably would not have worn it. Then again there are lots of things I'd put on my wall that I would not wear on my back.

Warm holiday wishes to all, and my condolences to fishnfool.
