Oh, wait. I wasn't born then. :wink:

THIS is what I'm talking about:

I like SHMO's pic, though. Good design, and I can even live with the pretty graphics!

I know of a guy who does VW cartoons... I've bought some of his stuff... well done.

He'd do the final drawing if we can get it rough.

okay seriously......Has anyone considered iron-on transfers? It does seem alittle 70'sh but, the design i posted was a 70's iron on.( i seem to have purchased the last 2 on earth) i was at the mall and it still seems to be a popular method of doing t-shirts. We could design one and mail the transfer and let everyone choose their own shirts. Wadya think?

I think whatever way we do it, it needs to be professional and good quality so it lasts. There are alot of places that make T-shirts heck there is even one out here where I live. Remember it has to pass the Doc.

There are some guys working on some designs so lets see those and then get the T-Shirts or if anybody has a " in " for that post those. Has anybody had any dealings with the internet site http://www.cafepress.com/cp/info/sell/makemoney that Goof ball submitted. SHMO do you know the quality of what they produce?

I'm up for paying a few bucks for some quality --- silk screening and a better shirt.

Let me know if you'd like the VW artist dude to chime in...

No,

by now means would we want a VW artist to get involved. :roll: Tim, sometimes I just wanna slap you...haha

In regards to the quality from Cafepress, it is fair. I beleive they use an iron on style for transfer, so fade and color holdout is not super high quality. But hey, its a 14 dollar shirt with, no shipping, no minimum purchase, no nothing. Just send an image and its done. Besides, any self respecting off roader will have it covered in CV grease the first week anyway. I'm going to order mine by the half dozen....haha

Here is a logo a guy did for me. I thought he did a great job and included several versions of the same idea. It will be going on shirts and other stuff as soon as I can get screening arranged. If you want contact info for him, let me know.

That would be cool except the stick-on graphics would peel off the first time you washed it :lol:

I am only one, and not even an Army but I don't think the iron on is the way to go, I trashed T's but I have some good ones from 15 years ago, would like to have one of these last as well.

Ok so far SHMO's idea has it but would like to see some more with all three types if possible. And yes I am artistically challenged. Now if you want me to destroy it just let me know.
