T-shirts - Run number 2

I don't wear white T-shirts.. well only as undershirts... so I guess I'll skip this batch.

Rico, are you using UberPrints.com? I made some shirts through them recently and the screencaps you posted look exactly like their site. Great service from them, and great prices.

Rico · August 26, 2007, 05:29:57 AM

Yep - that's the place. I used them last time and was happy with the results.

I designed a shirt for a friend's dojo, and was very happy with UberPrints.

I was thinking that you could share the design, to allow people like Kenny who might now want it on white, to order their own shirt(s) with different options, but I don't think they offer that service. (I just looked quickly.) I know some other sites do that.

I have tried at least three other sites like Cafepress and a couple of others and tried to set up a service like that where people can pick and choose and order on their own. They all had a problem with the "Spock logo" on the shirt. Even though that is hand drawn and was commissioned by me they said it was a copyright problem. This happened quite awhile back when I tried to do the first run of shirts. So I settled on Uberprints. I do one bulk run of shirts and get them sent to me then mail them off to those that order. I wanted to do white this time because I did a colored shirt last time.

Makes sense. I hadn't considered the copyright issue with the logo.

I am good with White Shirt as well, most colours I like and wear. If it is long sleeve, and the sleeves fit loose, then thats cool with me, if the sleeves are tight, then I prefer a T-Sirt. For my Podcast, we used Cafepress, and I did not really care for the shirts, as I felt they fit to tight, and the long sleeve way to tight. Sounds like from Both yours and Dan's experience UberPrints is a great place.

Well, if you go white you can count me out this time around. Sorry but I won't wear a white T. I also do not want or care for long sleeve Ts. Everyone I have bought has either been too tight or not long enough so no more long sleeves for me on Ts

Rico,

I would like a T Shirt as well. I like White and short sleeves as well. It will be real cool.

Thanks

Andy

Just so you guys know, as the man said - "you can't please all of the people all of the time." Sorry about that. But the shirts will be white and short sleeve on this batch. I've seen a lot of T-shirt runs on various sites and there is always this split on those that like white vs. black T-shirts. I will try to do a black run in the future for the others.

Geekyfanboy · August 27, 2007, 07:35:27 AM

it's not a problem with me.. I have my blue one.. that will keep me happy. :)

Rico · August 29, 2007, 04:41:24 AM

I'll probably be announcing this and getting an order link going with this coming weekend's podcast. Orders will probably be going for a couple of weeks after which I will place the whole order.

Jen · August 29, 2007, 05:08:45 AM

White is fine by me. :)
