Quiet you! And I thought you don't like to wear shirts?

Dammit. Ok, ok. You caught me red handed!

I like it. If I get it, it's mainly because I really like the design and not to transform into a Gaslight superfan haha I'm not quite that intense

Haha, I am that intense but I don't know if I want to advertise it haha.

Maybe I'm just starting to think of the negatives but we'll be getting 45rpm club shirts too - kind of seems like we're competing with that to be even more exclusive/dedicated.

Yeah I think we gotta be real careful of that in anything we do at this point.

Even though it KINDA reminds me of this...



I like it

Dimestore T shirts is yes

moreblue, can you post the design without the black background?

UK folks, should we try to find a UK based company to order from rather than paying for international postage? streetshirts.co.uk look ok though there are a few companies offering custom t shirts. Anybody had any experience with any of them? Cafepress is another one.

Yep a U.K printer would be good to save the international shipping cost. As long as the quality stays the same and the Tshirt quality is good. Here's a high-res PNG file. If you go to the link and then Right Click and choose 'Save As'

It's on a white page so the top text won't show up until you upload it.

I can upload an EPS or press quality PDF if you need either of those files too.
I'm not on my computer today but I could send those file types maybe tomorrow or Monday.

Thanks for your help and offer of sorting the u.k printing!

For you UK folks, how about this company?

And as an FYI: Skreened does ship internationally for only $8.

Please could you upload the EPS? Seems like that's the best supported format.

I've set up one at streetshirts.co.uk - £13.50 including free P&P. They also have an offer on if you buy 2 shirts you get a £5 discount so don't know if people want to buddy up. You can also switch colours/shirt styles (they have ladies shirts).



This is just a preview - I'll do it again when I've got the EPS file and provide a link for people to buy. moreblue - I'm happy if you want to change the size/layout to keep it consistent with the US one.

I checked them out but they seem less flexible in that you can't do it yourself and provide a link for other people to buy so would have to contact them and buy in bulk.

Looks good and decent price.
Thanks for this, yep I'll sort out a EPS file ASAP
Look good on the grey, I'd just nudge it down a fraction so it's slightly lower. But only a cm or 2.

Looks pretty sweet. Good work you guys!

Just looking at the www.streetshirts.co.uk website now. Looks good, but it seems to be £15 instead of £13.50

No big deal. Just wondering if the price has gone up or if you magically got a better price somehow at your end?

I've got the EPS file ready now. But the site seems to be working better with a SVG file at my end. I'll send them over to you shortly.

Cheers!

Either I'm going mad or they've put their prices up. I went back and followed the link to my original design but that's showing as £15 too. Annoying but its still a decent price.

I'll use the SVG and post a link with the design for people to buy.

Cool, here's the SVG vector file. Don't worry about the red background, I did that on purpose and it should disappear when it's uploaded to the Tshirt site.
One thing I've found though, after playing around on the site for half an hour or so, is the vector files don't seem to resize very well. The vector files start to become ungrouped when I tried to resize it to make it slightly smaller. But I think it's ok actual size.

Here's a screen grab for placement. Just a fraction lower than it was before.




Thanks!

Thought I'd post an update as UK folks are asking when/where they can buy the shirt.

I've set up a store with streetshirts which will host the design shown above plus other colours/ladies t shirt options.

Unfortunately, by default they charge an additional 15% commission on my behalf!! I've emailed them asking them to take this off so will hopefully be sorted soon.

If you're desperate to buy now, let me know and I can post a direct link to the design at the proper price.

The design looks really cool
So, will everyone wear it in Birmingham then ?

I'm definitely buying one and will wear it at Birmingham

I'll be getting one at the end of the month I'll wear it at Birmingham as well!

This might have been asked before, but can anybody tell me where I can see my members number?

We're just trying to figure out how to take the 15% commission off the shop at the moment and add 1 or 2 women's styles.

Here's a screen grab of the U.K shop option so far (black on black... very Spinal Tap

Anyone gonna buy the US version?

I like the black text on the white tee. That looks really good

The white and gray is cool.

Is there anyway we could get the anchor blown up and remove the "Dimestore Saints" (or insert The Gaslight Anthem instead)?

Not that I don't like the fact that it's a Dimestore Saints shirt... it's just the anchor design is so awesome and minimalistic that I want it as a Gaslight shirt.

Thanks man, but I wouldn't be able to do that unless they officially licensed it in their own shop. Which I very much doubt will happen as they have lots of Tshirt design already. I saw that El Jefe released a new anchor design shirt this afternoon on his facebook page too.

( the new EL Jefe one)

There's also another anchor shirt on Infinite

In my opinion the El Jefe one looks once again like that one...
