The box would be great for my cigars.

Okay .... you’ve got me thinking—which Mike McCartney and Seb Nelson will tell you is a dangerous thing.

Your tee-shirt looks great.  So .... what resolution jpg file did you use for your personal arms?

Thanks,

It was just 500x680 at 300dpi.  I suggest uploading a bigger file, but it came out fine.

Michael,

What is the quality of the silk screening reproducing your personal arms?  It looks like a good, heavy quality.  Do you think it will stand up to repeated washings without cracking or fading?

I’m seriously considering a few personal items as well .... (oh yes, and a few AHS products to support the Cause).

============

Two hours later: Okay .... I note one may purchase the image as "Direct Printing" or "Heat Transfer".  I think I’m leaning towards heat transfer for an apron.

Which print method did you request?

Thanks,

Guy

I got the direct printing, and its been washed twice without fading.  The shirts have various fabric thicknesses, and they are listed as a bar in the product details.  I am happy with the weight of the Ash grey and black shirt.

I added a couple of new T-shirts (baseball, value), and a couple of other items to the store.  We’ve made several sales :p—- stuff is literally flying off the shelves!  So, hurry and buy, buy, buy.  A small percentage on each purchase goes to the Society.

Yes, I am partially responsible for stuff flying of the shelf!  In addition to purchasing a few AHS toys, I also had some personal toys made as well.

I wanted to post a couple of images, but was unable to copy the designs on Cafe Press’ site.  Howdja dooit?

You need to create your own store….  it’s free

Under the OH CRAP! Section…the Black T-shirt has "American Herladry Society" You might want to correct that;) Reminds me of when I did a fundraising mailing on an environmental issue. The ouside of the envelope was supposed to say "Save a California Treasure!" Instead it said "Save a California Treasurer!" This went by the eyes of our Development Director and our Executive Director. Oooops..we are only human.

I fixed it.  I changed the arms on the shirt and I guess I didn’t read it too carefully.

Good thing you changed it. Those herlads get pretty cheesed when others appropriate their Society’s name.
