Shirts

I like this idea a lot,even cheap skate me would buy a couple of these

 

Scrapes, I really like the close up motor and exhaust, great job, but I think you should use the XJ bikes swirl logo instead of your XJ lettering.

 

I'll definitely buy a shirt or two, a tee and a sweatshirt. I would stay away from putting an image of a bike on the shirt simply because our bikes all look so different. I, for example, wouldn't be as interested in a shirt with a pic of a Seca on it since I ride a Maxim.

I would also stay away from anything that could possibly be considered copyright infringement. While it may be permissible to use logos and such "for your own use", the discussion here is in regard to selling the shirts to members. That goes beyond what is considered "personal use", even if you are not making a profit.

That said, let's do it!

 

The carbs make a nice "backbone" kinda look on the back.

 

I like what Kishkumen did with the exploded carb on back, even if it is on the front .

Now just do it with a Hitachi...........

 

I can't do our logo in the black background because it has black in it.

 

ROTFLMFAO! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

DING,DING,DING..Ladies and gentlemen we have our winner.

Im really diggin that one scrape!

Dont know about wearing a pic of rick on my shirt though :lol: !

Man that just made my day a little better thanx scrape :wink:

That was nice...thanks Ridz!

 

If anybody has and ideas for a theme/layout or pics that they would like used, post them up. The members here with these imaging programs can work with them and need your ideas also. Feel free to change a submitted work and maybe build off it also. I would need to clean up anything that I do anyway as a finished product.

 

I want to watch this one to see all the good ideas for shirts.

 

Scrape: Though I truly like how it looks, that would be extremely hard/very expensive to put that on a shirt.

 

Your probably right, I have to get out of this dark/neon rut I'm in and move on to other concepts.

 

Wouldn`t a small Embroidered Patch be easier and longer lasting. Just a thought.

 

Again, let me stress that I can do 1 color screens for this. Any/all artwork should be 300 dpi jpeg/psd/pdf/eps or other common formats. 100% contrast, although halftones would work too. If I need to tweek it in photoshop a bit, I can-- just dont try to send a file with some crazy format/extension. Also, I do not use Plastisol ink, so NO "white on black" designs please. The textile ink I use holds up great, I have shirts I've done 6 years ago that still look good, I just dont have a flash dryer to cure Plastisol.

My preference for the $$$ would be $12+shipping.

As for the designs I've seen so far, I like the exploded carb, and really like the shot fo the motor, but Scrape, you need to work in a higher resolution. I think we should emphasize the "inline4" engine idea, contradicting the v-twin craze currently going on....

 

Man , this has become a most interesting thread.

Im excited to see what we end up with.

Kevin thats some good advice, I myself cant wait to send the 12.50 per shirt.

Man it kinda feels like xmas lol. Good stuff going on here!
