new front but as a round patch style it might look funny
leave back as is,, looks cool on black from the back as you walk away
And talk to steven he says he has a friend that has a friend that knows someone that had a shirt made once . or that might get a better price from a buddy

You could also spend the money on a printer system and just print the stuff yourselves. Probably be a little more expensive and then you need the raw materials too, but you could print whatever you want on whatever you want.

Not to mention you could use it to print off NHAA swag and maybe swag for other clubs (assuming they pay for it in advance).

Also on the arm should be an NHAA patch, just sayin'

Shit, a shirt with all the NHAA member clubs might be cool as well.

i like these ideas, but i would like them a lot more if i wasn't still sitting on about 75 NHAA patches. They haven't really sold like i thought they would. The dead ends patches haven't exactly been flying out of the box, either.

also, that cocaine crab is frightening.

I like Ryan's idea. Coffin on front, big or small pocket, and girl on back. I would like to see her on more swag in thee future.

I totally understand. When I get some extra cash I will be getting some patches... however scraping together extra cash especially when I have other projects I'm working on has been difficult. Currently we have $20 in our coffer that one member donated about a year ago now and I've put in some of my own cash on the domain and buttons.

The major key is to get some bad-ass swag that people will want to pay money for, not only to support the club but just because it's cool. I've got Reaper and Grimm Daddy working on some logo ideas and I want to get shirts this summer for all of us. I think a couple members have a printing press but I haven't talked to them in a while and they don't seem too enthused (probably why I haven't talked to them in a while).

I'm just trying to come up with some ideas. If I can get a hold of (or get access to) a cheap press some how I'll be happy to make whatever the hell you want for cost.

That was the point

some one locally had mentioned a button maker. anyone have those?

[Scary Guy]

I know a few people locally with them and have worked with three. Rowan (Rozzlyn when I met her) did them and sold them at Necto. Rob does them all for Dave (The Amino Acids/The Casket Bastards/The Ded Dave Show) and will mail them. Finally, Phill tends bar at Northern Lights where I used to work and that's when I got into the 1.5 buttons (which are nicer IMO). Generally prices are $20 for 100 buttons from what I've seen between the two. Buttons are 1 and 1.5 inches. I've even got a magnet that Phil did (apparently the press works for those as well).

Getting a hold of a button press is vastly cheaper and you can get ones that will do multiple sizes. You could always get one of those, do work for other people on the side, and save the profits up to help offset the cost of a shirt press. Shit I like that idea, I might just do that myself. I could sell Hell swag to the stores in Hell.

I think that we should have the new logo on the back, that way if we have a jacket or vest on, we can wear our shirt under it and not look retarded for having the same thing on the front and back.
For the front we should either have the old logo, big or pocket size, OR we could steal kevins tag idea and put "we want your body" where "gus must dead" currently is...if he's ok with it..

i also agree that we need to come up with cool shit other people want to wear to generate $$$

stuff like those rubber bracelets like on www.wristbands.net and buttons and magnets are cheap, and sell cheap, but if we sell copious amounts of them, they might be profitable

We should just do some of each way, with the new design on the front on some and the back on others.
I imagine like a concert shirt with the big flashy design on front ( new design) and something plain, simple, and to the point (old design) on back.

[HearseHaunter]

Do like I do with the current shirt. I wear it backwards with an over shirt so I don't have to explain what Gus must dead means

[rockwilllive]

So.....by the time we actually order these, we need to start thinking about HOODIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Scary Guy]

Careful with those hoodies. You don't want to end up like Trayvon.



I don't like hoodies anyway. I can't wear them with the long hair. I pull it out because it's more comfortable and then I try to put the hood up and it just doesn't work.

"GUS MUST DEAD" means "GUS MUST DEAD". No further explanation is necessary.

[Guest]

Current balance - $638. We'll be putting in a new shirt order after dragon con.

[HearseHaunter]

Which design? Please no gus must dead...lol

[Guest]

i can say with 90% certainty it will involve the casket logo on the front and shovel girl on the back. the main question, i think, is whether the casket logo will be large, or pocket size.
