VIDEOHELP SILK SCREEN T-SHIRT - Brainstorm Colors and Ideas

[Doramius]

We have our heavily winning design. We can still make the others if there is still popularity or people can silk screen them on their own and then offer them here. I'm surprised Baldrick's not in here looking to offer a small sum of cash for the design and then roll with a regular making of a T-Shirt. From these blocks, throw in color schemes. Be aware that a good silkscreen at a low cost is best at 2 colors. Thanks to Goolump, the desing is shown on Black and White backgrounds. Obviously it would defeat the purpose of having white on white or black on black. Let's see what interesting color schemes we come up with and we'll vote on the best one's. After that, it's off to get it made.

Can we have this as a sticky for about 14 days too?

Get rid of the orange. Blue is cool. How about silver on a royal blue shirt?

[Craig Tucker]

Stuck, and I have unstuck the polls.

[Doramius]

Here's a Sample of front & back view. This is only an example. We even might be able to get the whole thing embroidered. However, the Back may cause it to be on the pricey side. Probably best to stick with the silkscreen.

Thank you.

How about a ps or psd of the picture so we can modify it for further example? Or if it was created using a font, how about posting the font or the name of the font.

I can host the psd or ps file if it's pretty big?

BTW, I tried to take the posted pict and modify it, but it just looked like crap because of the jpg compression and the edge blending

[Craig Tucker]

goolump created it as a vector image with illustrator, so I guess the original is an ai file.

[stiltman]

Pretty sure it can be saved as a psd too, but if not I can also host the ai file

This is exactly what I was thinking. I like it. What is the pricing differences between silk screen and embroidered.

I would lose the box round the front logo though.

[DVD_Ripper]

Sweet....

- $6.00 to $7.00 for the shirt (will need to confirm price -- anyone else have access to silkscreening business)

- and $12.00 per screen that needs creation (first run only)
so for 4 screens x $12.00 each (2 front and 2 for the back thats $48.00 (roughly a buck a shirt)

- computer fee of about $10 - $20

All are white Jerzees T shirts, most all sizes but based on the class photo we would need a lot of XXL's

So at 50 pieces we are looking at about $7.00 to 8.00 each shirt plus shipping.

Shipping to Europe could be cost prohibitive.... someone may want to produce locally.

Local Shipping ... what $2.00 to $4.00 per shirt packaged and mailed

[Goolump]

Couple of quick ones.

If you liked the box



Maybe good for a pocket, or something

[housepig]

- $6.00 to $7.00 for the shirt...
- and $12.00 per screen ...

shop around... I just saw an ad for 50 shirts, printed, for $149. ($3/shirt).

@goolump - could I get an .ai of the pixelated version?

[Hardcoreruss]

No print them there shipping to Europe will not be that much. Makes sense to do them in bulk.

How much for embroidered ?

[stiltman]

The no coasters on the DVD looks like crap at this size

[Hardcoreruss]

Good

What does it say on the disc "No ......?"

[Hardcoreruss]

I was going to say we should get our usernames on them somewhere also.

But then I thought about walking round in a T with Hardcoreruss on it, I would defintely get a slap.

[stiltman]

I say we leave it up to Goolump. The Photoshop creations on his website are awsome

[Hardcoreruss]

What is his site

[Doramius]

I came up with these and wanted to know what people thought on Goolump's newer design. I'm working with Stiltman's, too. So expect to see a couple more in how they will look on a shirt. These Can be emroidered, but they will probably be about $15 for a regular Tee to be embroidered. I'm showing only a generic White, but there are other colors. However, ebroidered designs usually look better on a durable Golf or 3-button Polo shirt, but the price is going to be about 2-3 times the cost. See below illustrations. The sky-blue outline is just a pocket positioning box and won't be in the actual design.


To have the above embroidered designs on a button polo like the photo below would be around $30USD. It would be front & back, though I'm just showing Front. There won't be the white border around the design like it's showing in the pic though. The above Tees embroidered front & back are about $10-$13USD each.

[Doramius]

Here's with Stilt's Designs. However, the one with different colors will probably get re-colored to 2 colors. Again, the sky-blue box outline is only pocket placement, it is not part of the actual design.

I like these ones, lose the box round the logo on the front though.

I would go with embroidered theyh will last longer.

When are you going to get them done.

[freestyler]

quick question, when did videohelps slogan become "no more coasters" ?

isn't that lordsmurfs ™ ?

I don't think anyone did. i just added it myself as i was messying around

[Doramius]

I have this set up as a sticky for about 14 days. After that, we'll run OUR LAST POLLS on the Shirts. And that will decide which design will be best on the Front & Back. The front will be Pocket size and the Back will be Full size or approx. 13-15" across. The shirts will be generically XL. After that is done, If doing it silkscreen, we can just have the money PayPal'd to whoomever is doing it. For the embroidery, an independent PayPal account will be set up for just this cause. The PayPal account will be through the company that will do the embroidery. Just want safety measures in place so everyone gets the # of shirts they ordered and paid for. Once we ge price quotes and shipping costs put together, we will come out with the actual shirt cost. Again the standard Tee will be around $10USD per shirt. The Polo shirt may be around $30USD. That's with embroidery. If we do Silkscreen, It may be a bit cheesy to do it on a Polo shirt, so a regular tee would be about $5-10USD. Some companies offer free 2 week shipping. If that's the case I can get them shipped to me and I might be able to set up a bulk shipping account with my company and either eliminate shipping costs or reduce them. (most likely reduced for you people outside of the US) If the demand is very high, we might just have a shipment go directly to the UK for the people there that can also be done for free. When we get closer to actual cost, we'll also ask people if they want to order 2 or more shirts. I know I want at least 2.

Put me down for a pair. One T-shirt and one polo with the embroidery.

PS - The no more coasters thing needs to go.

MY $.02 (sometimes not worth even a penny tho)

[pyrate83]

quick question, when did videohelps slogan become "no more coasters" ?

isn't that lordsmurfs ™ ?

Quick question, when did Tony Montana become the badguy??? Who wouldn't want to get to the top?

Ok, now for the t-shirts, I didn't know "no more coasters" was the slogan either but I like the blue and red colors best out of what everyone has put up here.

[Goolump]

You know, the more I look at it, so do I. Nice work.

[stiltman]

Again I was just messing around with the "no coaster" on the DVD and the "no more coasters" under the URL.

The one I like the most has the no more coasters on it, but of course it can be removed. What I like about it
red DVD
red film coming off the spool

I also like the one with the red video jack, but it seems a bit busy looking (harder to read) and of course the main objective is to promote the site with a readable logo.

Plus, I would be more inclined to wear a polo with a pocket logo, than a T-shirt with the logo on the back. I usually just wear Tees like that around the house.

[Goolump]

And anyway, shouldn't the connector be yellow for video :P
