copy the milk ad, Got milk., have gps teams callenge on front , and on back, Got wind? ha

Milsy, Have you been drinking more than just milk

I reckon the url is superfluous and just over complicates thesimplicity of the design. Seriously who is actually going to type in a url they just saw on a t-shirt as opposed to just googling GPS team challenge (maybe on that note the words "team challenge" need to be included.

I quite like the ambiguity of it whereby an inquisitive mind might ask what the logo is all about. Sometimes being subtle gives it more oomph in terms of its effectiveness. Bit like having a secret handshake that only serves to create more interest from an outsider's perspective.

The long sleeve shape Sausage put on looks great. Looking forward to buying one.
Can we get a "V" neck option on the short sleeve version?

PaddyMac, don't like your "2s Peak" idea. Don't want anyone to ask what's mine

GPS teams challenge, great thing, crap name, are you promoting speed sailing, windsurfing or a device called a GPS, why not,
" BY THE GODS OF SATURN TEAMS CHALLENGE" or windsurfing teams challenge, maybe lose the "team", and "challenge",whatever, im so bored,,,,,,,,,,,, Got Wind?

You could always put this on the arm (www.gpsteamchallenge.com.au/ as a QR code) although Im not sure what size/quality you would need to work when printed onto cloth. This is "medium" size.

Okay cause I feel sorry for our poor cousins suffering in the cold down south here's a long sleeve version with the team name added. Now stop bothering me as I've got a **** load of work to do.

PS - happy for anyone with the graphic design skills to tidy these ideas up. Can supply the "word" document I created them in....yes that's right, MSWord

It's a balmy 17 C down here today. I like this design. Dave Morehead approached me about printing the t.shirts for GPSTC. I'm a screen printer and screen printing t.shirts, hoodies etc is how I make a living and buy windsurfing gear.
Designs with solid colours work best for screen printing (just like the above logo). Photographs don't work out all that well screen printing so I'ld stay clear of those if you want me to do the printing. Photographs are best done with a Direct To Garment (DTG) printer which I'm looking into purchasing possibly but down the track a bit.

Hi guys, if its a fund raiser do it in house. A t shirt should make 7 buck if you sell for $25 and print over 50. ( i use aussie gold in Perth and the hanes calssic is the best)

But if you want a few dollars 1-3 on each shirt then give it to redbubble.com you just upload the design and people select the style v neck, girly neck or even baby onesy. Redbubble post and all that- the designer gets a few dollars

see what we did with our tshirt

Has a design even been finalised yet???? How can a price be locked in if the design hasn't been locked in. Price will be dependent on the amount of positions of print and also how many colours are used. It will also depend on the brand of tee used. I actually designed and supplied the original GPSTC tee shirts and also put my hand up for a chance to supply this lot but it looks like I didn't even get a chance to quote!
Is this an exercsie to make money for the GPSTC or are they being sold at an effective cost price? Just asking cause sorry Kazza, but $23.00 + postage is a bit rich!

Woops, sorry Andrew, this is probably my fault, trying to push the process along.

The design we've agreed on is Brian's above.

None of us were sure whether to bother you with this after your tragic loss, obviously we should have done.
I deeply regret upsetting you further.

I guess we better go back a few steps, and see what you come up with.

Seems cheep to me! Can't buy a Billabong or ripcurl Tshirt under $50

Thats because Billabong and Rip Curl don't mind ripping you off. I on the other hand have a concience and want to do the right thing by the community I love.

Without try to sound like a Monty Python sketch - Who's Brian and whats his design? (Please excuse my Ignorance )

design = shoebox

Personally I like the design that Sausage has come up with and we need to make sure we get decent t-shirts(material) to wear. In are community such as this, you're not going to make everyone happy, that's life..

Sasusage has asked for other deigns, by the looks not that many have come through. So show the designs we have, see what the users that care think and have a quick informal vote to get user opinion. Then the GPS committee has the final say on what design we go with.

GPS committee allocates someone to print them from within the community, people that would like the oportunity to do so pm sausage. Choose the person based on price of final product, profit margin for GPS site, quality and timeframe etc

Then get these puppies on the production line so that we have them for the new season


My 2 cents..

Just a thought on the design (which I like overall)
I think it may be better to have the TC in red rather than orange, so that red is the predominant colour. Red would still stand out but coordinates with more of the shirt colours on offer and would most likely go better with other clothing we have.

Think Mr Sausage (Brian) better have the last say in this seeing it's his design.
