Sorry I cant do the credit card one its too long and it will take up my whole screen. If these sell well I could do a complicated one or one with a picture that uses the whole screen but I need to do a trial first because its such a specific audience.

Sorry - no way to pick more then one or edit polls. If you want to be able to let people pick more then one (or edit it), just write up the list as part of the thread and tell people to pick X number of options.
Kal
Note: Not being able to edit polls is done 100% on purpose. You can't allow someone to pick an option and then let the original poster go change the text to something else. That wouldn't make any sense.

Alright I can deal with that. If its really that important to them to pick more than one they can register another user name. Sorry about that guys I didnt know you could only pick one... But the top 3-5 (maybe even 6) will be printed depending on the length of the winners.

I'm touched that you want to mention the site on the shirt, but why not put the www.curtpalme.com and the putting the U in CRT in smaller letters. The slogan needs to be a catchy one that we can proudly wear into Sony stores when we view the Ruby.
(and I'd wear it to DarinP's house if it got here in time)
(I'm seeing Darin next week to see a properly set up Ruby!)

I am going to do that and I would edit it to say that but as kal said you cant edit polls so regardless of what it says it will be printed CuRTpalme [/i]

Doing the multi color adds a lot to the price due to the fact that i must mask the other letters and switch inks each time. The only way toa void the masking and switching inks is to make multiple screens, one for each color which also adds a lot to the price.
If I print that one it will be optional for songle color and multi, multi will be more expensive. if I were printing 500 it would add much less to the price but as you know, I am not... And since this job is not for one company requesting many shirts, I cannot charge separately for screen making.

Have you considered iron on transfers? lol
Yeah I know, color's a lot more work. Just thought it would be neat.

Anyone can do iron on transfers at home, theyre cheap, dont last long, and look like junk compared to a good silkscreened logo done with oil based ink.
An iron on transfer (to put it in terms relevant to crt) is the equivalent of an lcd projector, cheap, bad quality, and short life. Only upside is that any bozo can do it at home. Thats why when a business wants 100 shirts for their employees they either get them silkscreened or embroidered and not simply iron them on.

Ooops struck a nerve. I was only kidding. I know iron on's suck. I have silk screened shirts from the 70's that are still surviving.
It's like the film vs digital debate all over the net. Digital's fast and cheap. Traditional methods tend to last longer ( I'm not trying to start an analogue vs digital debate here) Besides you all know which side of the fence I'm on
and yes I know photographers that shoot quality work on digital. Just gives me the creeps saying it lol

Slow down Shirts!, I think we can get some real milage out of this. How about these two:
Grey Beauty
Pitch Grey
Creature from the Grey Lagoon
Grey Hawk Down
Men in Grey
Grey Orpheus
It doesn't look right.
Say no to Digital Projectors

Hate to sound like an ass but no iron ons are horrible and if you have something from the 70s I think its just a really worn silkscreen done with water based ink. I kind of know this stuff considering I have been sewing for years. I do embridery, custom clothing, silkscreening, and have ironed on in the past too. I know the ups and downs of each method very well.
The silkscreens that last 30+ years are done with heat activated oil based ink, exactly what I use. Its harder because it doesnt air dry but its worth it.
