I'm trying to get an accurate estimate on the cost for the shirts, hopefully
I'll have one this time tomorrow.
A few questions have come up here. I'm going to try to answer all of them
everyone has sent me.
1: What's on the back? Everyone's names and hopefully their e-mail
addresses. I'd like to use everyone's real name or the way everyone
regularly signs their posts to ShadowRN.
For instance, my line will read:
Thomas Deeny <fauxpas@******.net>
(One of the) David's will read:
David van Nederveen Meerkerk <D.N.M.vanNederveen@***.ruu.nl>
I'm also thinking of putting a quote on the top of the back. "Know when to
run, know when to hide." -Inner Sprawl Graffiti
Under that will be all of our names, and under that will be (in a larger
point size):
shadowrn@********.itribe.net
2: What's on the front? The Shadowrun dragon's skull/banner logo (that is
a dragon's skull, right?) based on the cover of the SR2 rulebook. There'll
be one or two figures under the logo. It's raining.
3: How do we pay for this? I think I'll have to pay half down on the
shirts when I place the order, with the other half when I pick up the
shirts. I'll have more info on that in a day or so when I get the estimated
prices. I'd prefer a check or money order made out to "Thomas Deeny". Some
of the money is going to C.C.Creations (screenprinting shop), some goes to
the postage.
4: Hey, is this a scam or something? No. Initially I thought the checks
could be written to the silkscreening company but then realized that I'm
charging extra to cover shipping costs. There should be no profit made on
these shirts.
5: Kenneth Webb sent me this: "Also, I should mention something that came
up last year that Gurth forgot to mention. When <they> were seeking
approval for last year's T-shirt, they talked to Mike Mulhivil (sp?) and
asked if it was okay to do this. I
believe he said that it was basically okay if <they> met some stipulations.
I don't remember them all, but a few were:"
a. putting on the shirt "Shadowrun and the Shadowrun Logo are copyright
1996 by the FASA Corporation."
b. no profit for anyone.
c. Mike Mulhivil gets one.
Anything else I need to know, Gurth?
6: What color are the shirts, anyway? Out of the 42 people who have
expressed interest, we've got 16 who favor black, 1 navy, 1 blue (I'm
thinking this was another vote for navy), 1 grey, 1 dark green, 1 "I don't
care, I just want clothing", and 6 whites. Half of those whites were "white
or black" and I added them into the black category as well. 19 respondants
didn't list a shirt color preference.
It looks like the majority want a dark colored shirt. The design I'm
working on will work best on a navy or black, probably better on black.
(Nurse Wratchet: There's a gunmetal shirt that's a dark grey I think we can
use if you prefer. I'll have to check it's availability when we place the
order.)
Any more questions? E-mail me at fauxpas@******.net with "T-shirt
Question" as the subject line. Thanks!
