Power Kite Forum - T-shirt Design Contest *Less than TWO WEEKS LEFT*

T-shirt Design Contest Less than TWO WEEKS LEFT

Todd - 24-6-2010 at 09:57 AM

For the up and coming fall bash Dean suggested a T-shirt to commemorate the event. After speaking with Don about using his source for T's this can be done relatively cheap. What are some random thoughts on this... pre-order for each number of shirts wanted?

The design should be a two color so different color combinations could be used, or would everyone prefer just black with white lettering. Let's throw some ideas out there and get this going now. After everyone has a design up then let's vote.

i had t shirts made years ago for the club.
1 thing to remember. don`t order the shirts in black.
they are way to hot in the sun. gray seems to work best. put me down for 3!!!!!

rocfighter - 24-6-2010 at 01:29 PM

I know we will need at least 3, and if kids sizes we will want 4.

WELDNGOD - 24-6-2010 at 02:31 PM

I would be down for two.

kteguru - 24-6-2010 at 09:28 PM

I agree with buggyman, light grey or white for the shirt color is my vote. For the design I was thinking something along the lines of the design Jojo had a few years back. A shot of it can be seen here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bx5L-PtePTc&feature=relat... around 1:33. I thought it was a pretty nice graphic of the kite and buggier and it could say Wildwood Buggy Bash across the top. On the front of the shirt could be Powerkiteplace. I don't want to copy Jojo's work, I'm just using it as an example. There are plenty of creative people here at PKF so I'm sure someone can knock out a cool kite and buggy design we could use. Just my 2 cents.

rocfighter - 25-6-2010 at 03:31 AM

That is a cool graphic. And I agree with grey. I like black better but grey offers more options. But white and me don't work well together. My hands never get clean enouph to wear white!!

ragden - 25-6-2010 at 05:52 AM

The first wildwood buggy bash I attended, Brian Lee was handing out shirts that were a grey-ish blue in color. It said Wildwood Buggy Bash across the front with a bunch of crazy quotes on the back from people who were in the NJ Buggy Club. No graphics were on that shirt. Was one of my favorite shirts for awhile. Lost it in Hatteras one year.

A bunch of silly quotes was fun, but a simple graphic might work well too. Just one request when it comes to graphics, nothing too big.

I'd definitely be interested in getting a couple shirts, if we do this. We just need to figure out what they will look like.

Maven454 - 25-6-2010 at 07:36 AM

Shirts!

Todd - 27-6-2010 at 01:25 PM

My pathetic try at a design

For a black shirt

For a white or other color shirt

rocfighter - 27-6-2010 at 03:09 PM

Add a long beard and you have something there!!
But really it looks Great.

WELDNGOD - 27-6-2010 at 04:24 PM

put a :piggy: behind the buggier and I will feel right at home.:flaming:

rando - 27-6-2010 at 06:34 PM

I am a sucker for T-Shirts...black are probably my all time fav but white/grey are super cool too. The price will determine if I get extras but I would say its safe that I'd get 1 or 2 and like others, if kids sizes are available I would take one for my daughter.

Todd, that's an awesome graphic! But is that supposed to be a guy with dread locks on a buggy or is that just how i'm perceiving it, lol? :lol:

rando - 27-6-2010 at 06:37 PM

Somehow I forgot to mention in my last post what a freakin awesome idea this T-Shirt thing is!!! :wee:

kteguru - 27-6-2010 at 08:04 PM

Nice design Todd :thumbup:

. Could you make the arc a Phantom? :smilegrin:

Looks like Kokopelli in a buggy without a flute.

Todd - 28-6-2010 at 04:13 AM

Willard is correct with it being a Kokopelli but if dreads is what your into then I guess it could be both :smilegrin:

@Dean - That kite is actually a Phantom cut and pasted from this pic:

I thought there might be some copy write issues if I left it that way.

Chad - 28-6-2010 at 03:03 PM

live on the wild side!
Go Phantom Go

hehee

rando - 28-6-2010 at 06:15 PM

kteguru - 28-6-2010 at 10:29 PM

WIllardTheGrey - 29-6-2010 at 12:06 AM

kteguru - 29-6-2010 at 08:50 AM

Chad - 29-6-2010 at 11:56 AM

WIllardTheGrey - 29-6-2010 at 04:07 PM

New try with the right letters. :rolleyes:

Todd - 29-6-2010 at 04:11 PM

Willard rocking the PS, thank you!

WIllardTheGrey - 29-6-2010 at 04:15 PM

Thanks. Do you recognise the guy in the buggy? :smilegrin:

Todd - 29-6-2010 at 04:38 PM

Yes, that's why I liked it so much!

arkay - 29-6-2010 at 08:30 PM

Lol

But good 2 color design. That's always tricky to work with. Dithering always looks bad :/

kteguru - 29-6-2010 at 11:01 PM

Wow, great designs everyone :thumbup:

!!

U2U sent Todd.

bigben91682 - 12-7-2010 at 04:16 PM

Got bored at work today and thought I try my hand at t-shirt design.

bigben91682 - 12-7-2010 at 04:17 PM

Another option

kteguru - 12-7-2010 at 10:20 PM

I like the 2010 in the kite Bigben. Great design :thumbup:

Chad - 13-7-2010 at 02:57 PM

I second that motion....
Very creative!

Great job bigben :thumbup:

Chad - 13-7-2010 at 02:59 PM

Todd,

Love the new avatar! :wee:

Todd - 13-7-2010 at 03:12 PM

Pimp! Great job BB and I would agree that the 2010 should stay. Keep them coming!

Thanks LF!

WIllardTheGrey - 5-8-2010 at 03:46 AM

Bump because I want to see more designs.:P

kteguru - 5-8-2010 at 12:16 PM

I'm assuming Don needs to order these pretty soon since we're only a couple months away. Are we preordering them with Don so he can get an exact count? Todd,,,,,,,,,any word on this?

Sorry about that. Would help if I read everything :smilegrin:

Todd - 6-8-2010 at 04:20 AM

No big deal Dean, how is your back? I'm still sorting out the details of the massage room at the resort for you.

Todd - 10-8-2010 at 09:42 AM

A cross between Willard and Bens idea with a little splash? I probably need to darken the 2010 a little.

kteguru - 10-8-2010 at 12:11 PM

Back is doing better Todd, thanks for asking. Hopefully I'll be ready for floyd bennet. If not I'll just bring along a bunch of pillows to put in the bug before straping myself in :smilegrin:

. Nice artwork on that last post :thumbup:

. Endless great designs to choose from. Great job everyone :thumbup:

Todd - 18-8-2010 at 10:28 AM

bugymangp - 18-8-2010 at 12:01 PM

cheezycheese - 18-8-2010 at 12:18 PM

bison - 18-8-2010 at 02:51 PM

Here's my swing at it.

Can anyone guess the quote reference and why it is significant?

Score one for Maven!!! New Jersey reference!

What am I missing with the image attach command. I cut and pasted the image embed code from imgur.com and the preview worked great. Once it posted the image was gone.

Can't use regular html on the forum. Have to use BB code. In this instance "[ img ]http://imgur.com/jGxwK.jpg[ /img ]" Only without the spaces in the brackets.

arkay - 18-8-2010 at 04:52 PM

I thought I'd try something completely different for funzies. So I did a quick mockup this afternoon. If you like the concept I can redo and cleanup. It's 3 colors currently but could easily be made to two. Clarified... 3 bmp colors but 2 tee shirt colors, foreground image, background image, shirt color/sky
