iKC T-Shirts

Want a really cool iKnifeCollector logo'd shirt?....I promise it won't be tie dye :)

I'm exploring with a company that produces knife company and club clothing about the particulars for an iKC T-Shirt.

I'll get the details and I'll be back. In the meantime, if you would be interested in purchasing a iKnifeCollector logo'd t-shirt, then indicate so in a reply. Some clothing firm's won't require a minimum order, others will, so I just need to get the details (sizes, costs, colors, etc).

I am currently looking for a member with Adobe Photoshop. It is my understanding that they can convert jpg to png. So if there is an original image you can save as png and get the high quality for printing. I don't have what is required nor does our resident graphic artist JJ so I'm asking around for a volunteer so we can get er done.

Well Jan- Yes and No. It was decided we "wanted" them, and I set up a CafePress online store, but got bogged down with the necessary graphics. A regular JPG file format doesn't reproduce very well, so images need designed and saved in PNG or a higher quality format. Anyway, details, details.....

Honesty with my real job I can't say right now I have the time to get this over the finish line at the moment though, but it is only my list.

Hey that's great Robert maybe she would help Scott with this. I don't think its a big deal but I don't know that much about graphics for t-shirts and things. I'm telling you we are this close^ to t-shirts, hats, coffee mugs heck I don't know what else but Scott has everything else set up except for the image thing and linking to iKC.

Hog, If she helps us it's not a money thing, she's very rich. I just don't know what to ask her that we need. Get back to me on it. She's a doll. Her name is Dolly.

Steve,

I don't have Photoshop, but supposidly I can convert to png. If we have a good image, e-mail it to me and I'll give it a shot.

Well to be honest I don't know which ones Scott selected. I'm figuring the knife pic and the iKC mug logo maybe. he might have the original images. I'm pretty sure those would work, then convert to png and its iKC pj's for bedtime!

Scott sent me the pdf. It's the same size as on the HOME page. Not sure if the format is the problem and not the size of the image itself. They might look ok on a hat but wouldn't look right on a t-shirt. I've seen how ZAZZLE does their products and they'll tell you is the image is too small for the product. That's why I always submitted a text idea for the shirts/hats.

OK, interesting, can see why Scott had issues with it. We had offer of help from Robert(previous comment) so perhaps we need to find out a bit more from somebody who has some experience. What i know about graphics images on products could fit in a new iKC thimble.

I guess we need to ask Dolly what images we need for printing on hats and t-shirts and things. We have a pdf file and we think we can convert to png file but as JJ has said they may want something else depending on what they are printed on. We probably could use her expertise for this final push to iKC stuff! Dolly isn't in to knives is she?
