Full Version: PowerBook t-shirt

EDIT: You can now buy a shirt like this from: http://shop.geekfreely.co.uk/

Had a bit of an idea to make a t-shirt relating to my PowerBook 12" today:

So, after digging out the t-shirt transfers and with a considerable chunk of ironing help from kitteny_berk, here's the finished result:

Front:


Back:

(This is squarely between the shoulders and is about 4" across)

See further down the thread if you can't see the images.

All work done on Illustrator and a Mac (of course). Although, the iron was running Windows CE tongue.gif.

This the original artwork I used for the rear of the shirt.

To prevent this, the full stop is really a teeny-weeny apple logo.

I'll pay you to make a 15" version. biggrin.gif
Jinxx
I've been talking with kitteny_berk about dealing with a company that might make these on a larger scale than I'm able to and in 12", 15" and 17" flavours... PM me if you're interested so I can get a feel for numbers.

Thanks to everyone that's PMed and dropped a note in here, so far I've got 8 interested people... Just gotta deal with legal issues with apple and secure a supplier and I'll let you all know when I do what's going on.

Sweet!

This is just a quick update to let you know we've secured a distributor for the t-shirts.

It's looking like they're going to be around £16 (€23.50 / US$29) +shipping.

There are a few changes to the design, nothing major: The Apple logo as a full stop has had to be changed into a standard full stop and there is now the addition of "www.geekfreely.co.uk" in small type under the text. Otherwise, the text is the same and the powerbook on the back is the same.

We've still not got a 15" or 17" version just yet, but if this sells well, we'll definately look to getting them done.

I'll post more details when I know for sure what's happening.
Jinxx
Okay...

The Shop is now open and we're selling the t-shirt along with nine other designs! One of those others is Mac related, the others are just generally geeky or specific to other platforms (yes, there are other platforms).

Unfortunately, due to the cost of double-sided printing, the shirt is £19 (roughly $33.90 / €27.50) + delivery (although the other shirts are £16 + delivery).

All the ordering, processing, printing, and shipping are being handled by a company called Spice (the URL above will redirect you to our store in their catalogue) and they say that they can ship worldwide.

Thanks to you all for giving us the thumbs up and encouragement to get to this level.
