I went the cafepress route before and was not happy with the product on the front side and the dealing with them on the back side... Some of it was good and some was lame but I couldn't afford to go out and get several of each to check them out... So there are a few S-B (Cafepress) Collectors items out there
MrsF - what app are you taking sketches into? And how do you tweak them? I've been trying to get a sketch in myself
Guys & Gals - I want a kick ass shirt. It might not seem like it but I went thru a lot of hours trying to find the Game Over shirts at reasonable coin. Going thru the official distributor was going to run mid twenties for a T-shirt using them and that's just TOO much doe for a shirt. The site should be able to make a couple bucks per shirt and still get them to YOU for less than 15 bucks a piece - for quality shirts. When we ran the hats last year - at $22 or so each, the site sold them at cost. It was just too expensive in my opinion. They were GREAT hats but just pricey, and I can't justify charging $25 per hat to make the site $3 on a 10% margin, who works in 20-30 dollar items on a 10 margin?
So I would like a comical / intuitive / catchy image & slogan for a Tshirt design. Don't feel you need to do both, if you have a good (PG-13 or at least 17) catchphrase or a good design - let's see 'em.... Winner of each gets a custom plug of my chosing
Just to be fair - I'm s l o w l y working on a design too
and I think my phrase from last year was "Get Whacked" at Striped-Bass.com or something....
