The store is now open...

[Hauksbee]

Yesterday and today were spent in putting together the bare bones of a store on CafePress. You can find it here:

http://www.cafepress.com/BURNING_BRYGHT?nocache=yes

I've posted four shirt designs in plain white T's, and the same four again on a beige-looking T. They call it 'Organic' Go figure. Then there are nine coffee mug designs. I have every reason to expect that the quality will be good. I ordered a shirt and a mug, but they won't be here for a week.

 

There's still some work to do on it. I have to design the index page and set up the links to each section. For the moment, there's a link on the index page that takes you to White-T's. On that page there's a link to Beige-T's...and a link there to the Coffee Mugs. I'll get it all sorted out better in a day or so.

 

My plan at the moment is to let the profit accrue at CafePress, or open a new bank account and keep it all there until the Dev's decide whether they'll need the community's help or no. If yes, logos can be added and I'll transfer the whole shebang over to them. [The store runs itself].

 

Here's thumbnails of the shirt designs.

Alright Hauksbee! Thank you.

I’ll order an Albatros T for now and hope we get some OFF products.

Good on y'. We look forward to the day. Here's a composite of the coffee cups available.

Cool. Thanks. My problem now is that I want one of everything. Sorry the T-Shirt art can't be larger, but 10x10 is the max.

Just ordered the Snipe mug.

i still like the calander idea

Hauksbee, any intention of using Rabu's amazing images on your t-shirts (with Rabu's blessing of course) ? A rather subtle advertising method don't you think ? I'd buy 'em.

By all means, if Rabu's for it. All things are possible. We can add as many images on as many different products as we please. It cost nothing. If you have a 'moment-of-triumph' screen shot, and want a T-Shirt, or mug with it on, post it to the store and buy one copy.

 

EDIT: Uncle Al, if you can get 12 good screen shots together, we'll have a calendar

did someone just call me uncleal???????

 

Im not even gonna touch that...

 

i thiink it would be much better if ppl submitted screenshots, and they were voted on.

 

and,,would be nice to have ppl come up with historically important dates in ww1 with respect to pilots activites that could be put in the calander

 

uncleal?????

[Hauksbee]

uncleal?????

Vast apologies sitting duck. I glanced, hastily, at the avatar and thought it was...ah...ol' whatsis...

 

In any event, yes, 12 shots from 12 pilots would be first rate. Let me check the specs. at CafePress. For shirts and mugs they want art at 200 resolution.

Rabu should put some of his stuff on a mug or two....I'd buy one of that sketch of the pilot looking over his sholder.

Guys we are looking into doing this sort of thing, so probably best to hold fire for the moment?
