Hey Mr Nice, mcnalls told me he didn't have high quality images so I just spammed out the two images in the first post of this thread as 'can you do this' type deals

Can any of our resident GiP artists get me some vector images of our desired front and back? I’m pretty sure i can get the local people to do it.

But yeah they told me like $5.50 a shirt all the way through XL with each X up from that costing an extra two bucks each, so i think we’ll be fine even with fees from mcnally sending money to me. If we end up going this route i’ll either toss a buck or two in each box back or whatever the thread wants me to do with excess (like perhaps extra shirts for other people)

So here’s what i say. Get me some artwork so i can get it to the shirt people and get a sample or two made. I think maybe changing the 420/69 to be labled platoon or whatever i dunno how army names things. Hell maybe even put them as hull numbers on the obamadrone or something.

But yeah, post some art for me.

Ok cool, when we sort out the bullshit with the shirts let me know cause I'll buy an extra if we're already over 69. I won't if we aren't though. Make sure Max gets the 69th shirt tho.

Give any excess cash to Lowtax. I'd rather it go to him instead of a dollar or two refund. Kick the excess to the forums so we can squeeze another day or three out of this place in the long run.

Aloha, fuckers. I'm back from vacation and ready to fix this shirt issue.

I think the biggest issue isn't going to be finding someone willing to print: I think the biggest issue is going to be recreating the art so that it CAN be printed.

Anyone have any ideas on that?

As far as excess funds go, I'd be happy to do whatever seems to be the prevailing sentiment. Donation, muskets, Lowtax's back, etc.

It's not exactly a complex design. Someone could probably turn it out easily.

Post in SA Mart that you need a graphic designed for a t shirt and pay someone fifty bucks to make an equally lovely picture. It doesn't even have to be the same exact thing. It just has to be bad.

I need the obama drone and stuff as a separate art file. That’s the t-shirt website generator image and they’d have to recreate all the art from scratch with just that.

If push comes to shove, I could try just cranking up the size of the art on a white background, then take screenshots and save them individually.

But that's kind of sloppy and I was hoping someone could just rip the files.

There are definitely GIP goons that could crank some of that out. No one who can has probably looked at this thread. When I get home later this morning I'll see what I can find/make myself.

I got a goon in the GIP Discord chat who's gonna whip up a vector I can take to the local t-shirt printing places. Requests I've made include "no more Monopoly huts" and "better stencil font." I'm gonna try not to overload them with requests and I'm gonna buy them a shirt for doing the work, so I think we've well and truly broken the 69 shirt limit.

Oh, also I got a PM from Slippery, he wants a shirt too.

A primary concern when I get these printed is going to be whether or not they can print them on tan so those of you who are still in (gently caress you) can wear them in uniform, now that they've phased out the sand t-shirts I knew so well. If I have to drive a little ways to find a print shop that lives near a base to make that happen, that's what I'll do. Also I can't believe I didn't think of checking near Fort Meade and poo poo.

I haven't given up on Operation Useless Shirt, and neither should you.

(unless I start taking seriously about Operation Useless Refund, then you might want to consider giving up)

I have a quick first pass of some new art for the thread's approval. In my mind, you guys were paying for the original, so any changes to the art feels like a bait-and-switch to me. Am I overthinking things?



Anyway, this is what they threw together. We can continue along these lines or we can get a recreation of the original. What say you?
