Actually it was Safety Green that we ordered before.

I got the origional shirts at Aardvark printing in B.G. (right next to Panara's) If they still have the artwork, you should be able to get a good deal on shirts. They have a website, and you could phone to see if they kept the stuff.

I posted this before but my advice, if you do this, is KISS.
Offer only a few colors, stick to the origional design, don't get any smalls, get mostly L,Xl, and some XXL. Most people would rather have a Tshirt that's a little big.

It been awhile since we did a shirt run so we can do another run and sell them at geobash if we have people that would want to take charge. We do have money in the bank to finance the shirts.

I think the logo/state of Ohio with NWOGEO on it would be great. I agree with what Good Dog said. Keep it simple and offer a few color choices - maybe we can also offer a green safety color for CITO purposes or something similar. Something that would stand out at the geobash also would be very cool Cool

It would be nice to do some shirts for the kids as well.

Also I got to thinking about sizes...is there a way we can pay up front so people can order the sizes they would like? I would hate for people to get a size they are not happy with & that doesn't fit right. Just my 2 cents worth Confused

Yeah, do like a preorder so you have some idea of how many to order. Wouldn't want to order 500 and only sell 200.

Was the logo on the front or back last time?

How would a pre-order work?

Okay, I started this off before we had the twins, but now that they are 9 months old, I have the time to dedicate to finishing this (just do not tell my wife I said that)!!

Before we talk about colors and sizes etc...Can anyone tell what the old shirts looked like (front and back). I ask this question not because that is what we want to order, but because that is what might be on the screens that they might still have. Seems like a starting point to me.

On the front of the shirt

>Nothing was on the back. Too much extra costs.
>Aardvark has the screen with the tree on it, but those were too hot. They haven't gotten back to me yet on the screen for the one above
> If A doesn't have it, then shop other places for a competive price. If you have to have a new screen made, you could change it some also, but that is another can of worms you don't want to open this late, or you might not get shirts by Christmas.

> have people prepay and pick a size
< decide if you want to make a profit or just break even. Most of the money in our fund is from shirt sales.

After talking to Good Dog and Jhenkel I checked our website server and could not find the orginal artwork that we submitted to create the T-Shirt that Yogi posted above. If I am not mistaken, that image above is of my actual tan colored T-Shirt, since I could not find an image file back then either.

If "A" can not find it, I'll contact our orginal artist "Team Soaring" to see if they still have the original.
