I didn't do the design, that was Ralph's

> I have a few left, but not in all colours and sizes. They cost about 32 euro, plus roughly 10 euro for shipping (so a little over 42 in total) Is there one available in Size M?

I am also interested in the sweatshirt. If there is still one available, size M, I would be happy.
-
Guus
nicola, I don't have size M left. Please add me so we can discuss specifics: xmpp:guus.der.kinderen@igniterealtime.org

Very nice

What a lovely shot Guus!!
-
emus
Guus: I would be happy to progress this! the first lets query in the community for suggestions too
-
Guus
emus: I don't think we ever had a discussion about the design much. It's more of a "look, I created a design" type of deal.

emus
Guus: And that is fine. My thought is maybe we fine a red line of common points?✎ -

I'd been thinking about doing a new design to celebrate 2024-01-04

I have zero preference for design. My local fashionista (aka the spouse) suggest keeping it simple, like so:

I would maybe color de sides of the tshirt with the ones in the logo, but not sure. I'll try to show what I mean when I find a moment at home

You know, mentioning other things like that works as advertisement for that thing, not your thing.

also, who wants to be in the real world these days?

worst. text. for. t-shirt. design.
-
Zash
Guus, I tend to agree, simple is good!
-
Zash
Was there a thing about gradients being more expensive btw? If so, might be worth simplifying even more
-
Guus
Zash, that might depend on whatever printer we go with, and printing technique.
-
Guus
silkscreen printing, for example, gets a markup for every color used.
-
Guus
(but is costly for small batches either way)
-
Guus
DTG printing does not have the cost-per-color aspect
-
Guus
(but is less durable)
-
Guus
(generally)
-
Guus
Then there are techniques like transfer printing (which I think has much of the same pros and cons as DTG), and embroidery (which I assume is crazy expensive, especially with multiple colors, and is likely only applicable on sturdier materials)

Hmmmmm, XMPP themed vyshyvka?

Guus
(I had to look that up) - that's a bit more elaborate than what I ment :)

Heh. My mother is an accomplished hand loom weaver. She'll charge next to nothing (insisting that it's a hobby), but you'd best not order stuff in bulk :D
-
Zash
I hear yarns are expensive these days, since apparently everyone and their cat too up knitting during the pandemic
-
Guus
if that's the case, then she's in luck. Her stocks are ... impressive.
-
jonasβ
cats typically do different things with yarn

Impressive stocks are the name of the game with any yarn or fabric hobby

I'm not sure if we'll manage to get more off-topic for this room, btw.

Re: t-shirts I'm hoping for anything that works on a not-white shirt

Gray is ok, blue, orange, black, something else better :)

I highly suggest keeping just the color icon and remove the text below. It will save a lot of headache. Also not changing it every now and then would help quite abit to communicate a consistant brand (which the problem with the software to ordinary users at the moment but that's another matter.)
-
Trung
also keep a black&white version so we can print on whatever color background or even craft it out of wood or metal or whatnot
