i want to do some market research
What size t-shirt do you take its a cotton standard T
Measurements: Across chest (cm): XS (50.5); S (53); M (55.5); L (58); XL (60.5); 2XL (63); 3XL (65.5).
also would you buy an acidmods t-shirt to support the site.
there is no set price but i would guess it to be between $13 and $22 and all would cost the same regardless of size
OK GUYS
we found that it would cost us a fair bit of money to get a load of shirts printed to then sell on the site and we wouldn't be able to offer as wide a range of sizes.
so we whent with cafepress which allows us to offer lots of merchandise in different colours and sizes and we can change the designs as we please meaning mucho cheepo for me
http://www.cafepress.com/acidmods_shop (http://www.cafepress.com/acidmods_shop)
and it means that we still get a little kickback to support the site
-
If you guys vote and give us enough feedback we can proceed and actually get t-shirts made. So don't be shy! post your comments!
-
we may get them done there is nothing set in stone some details need sorting out first and maybe some preorders will be needed to get them done
-
i usually get large. but if its more then 75% cotton then ill get 1x. because cotton shrinks in the wash and i hate tight shirts
-
Am I the only small?? XD
-
I don't know :( I will measure later. Yeah cotton shrinks and I always forget that, so my clothes always end up too small...
-
XL 4 me...
-
medium
-
1xl in size and yes i would buy to surport the site and $20 sounds like a good deal and designes would make the marketing reseach better
-
we havnt set any designs yet
-
A 2XL would work for me due to shrinkage and all, and no I'm not fat!! ha ha , and yes I believe $20 to be a fair amount of funds...
-
I forgot that you said cotton, I probably should have voted L then.
That aside, though I enjoy the website I am unlikely to buy a T-shirt unless I really like the design. I just don't visit often enough, and though I could blame the design or the irritating little icons it is really just I've lost interest with modding my consoles for now.
-
Personally, I would love to own an Acidmods shirt, and I think that $20 is a perfect amount. Large is good for me. I love modding and wish to proudly display it on a shirt.
-
I would need probably an xs, maybe a small would fit...
But I would wan to know what it would look like before...
-
xl-2xl both are a good fit but if it shrinks the 2xl fits better.
-
Large for me I want one! Might buy an XL too just incase. Idk about everyone else but I wouldnt buy one with just the big AM logo of a PSP on it it should be more fashonable and easy to match with outfits we allready have I allways match lol. Maybe like blue lightning from left sholder to bottom right radomly and on the left side ACIDMODS in big blue silver letters going down under ur left arm?
-
I like the idea of a lighting bolt thing down the front of the shirt, and maybe Acidmods in the top left corner, and on the back, for staff members, etc. words like GLOBAL MODERATOR, ADMINISTRATOR, ART TEAM, etc.

and the stuff that comes off the side can wrap around to the back
that shirt would be beast.
-
Yes Definitely a black tee.
I'd buy it if I had the money.
-
This is what I've been waiting for..
I'll definitely get one, Medium size prefer..
-
I wear a large. I would more than likely purchase a t-shirt to support the site. If you get one designed, I will check it out. Thanks a lot.

The problem with your design is that we can only make them with the design on the front and on the back. I can't do it on the shoulders.
I like the idea of a lighting bolt thing down the front of the shirt, and maybe Acidmods in the top left corner, and on the back, for staff members, etc. words like GLOBAL MODERATOR, ADMINISTRATOR, ART TEAM, etc.
I can do that but it costs a LOT extra. You see we put the design on a screen and then we use the screen to put the ink on the shirt. But it costs $10-20 PER screen so if you want that you would have to make a screen for each position (and that's kind of stupid as people switch positions a lot).

1. you could if its a professional shirt making system just you dont know how to. but design can be adjusted easily.
2. your right. i was about to say that positions arent permanent and can change at any second so it would be a waste of time and money.

I probably could get it done on the shoulder but it will be a lot harder and a pain in the butt to do. It's easier to do it is in the center of the shirt. But if you guys really want it there I will see what I can do. I know somebody who has a professional t-shirt printing machine (not official name)
-
I'd buy a couple depending on how the end product looks....may even show some friends if they're too awesome to pass up :victory:
-
I might possibly buy depending on the design. I have always wanted to help you guys out ever since the first month I registered here.
-
I wear XL (60.5) - and I would possibly purchase a t-shirt in the future depending on its style.
-
If it's sweet enough, count me it, I have one question tho, will you guys be shipping overseas (I live in France)?
-
yes we would ship overseas plus i live in the UK
-
If I like the design I will definately buy one.
I really like the design that FreeK posted.
-
I tried to reply to the email but............. Hell yeah I'll take one.... XL
-
you cant reply as that email doesnt accept incomeing messages its purely an anouncement to get people to visit the topic
-

-

-
also i need some help lol - i got the text of a peice of art that someone did for me a while ago i think it was indy. can you identify the font please.
p.s. thanks to whoever did it lol i can never choose a good font
edit
skull just told me its the AM font but i didnt notice lol with it been 4am lol
-
I take a medium-small
-
il take a large. and that is a friggin sweet design
-
great job :tup: I take XXL ,20$ are sweet :) let me have 2 pcs.
edit: I miss my Wii on it :beg:
-
Awesome design! Although, I know at least some of us mod Wiis too. I think it would just make sense to have all of the major ones; PSP, DS, PC, PS3, 360, and Wii.
-
A large for me but depending on the percentage of cotton I might get and XL.
-
wow did yall realy use dougs computer

love the idea, will def buy 1 in large to support you guys
-
Wow, a ton more stuff than just a shirt. Everything looks awesome! I'm glad to see the Wii remote made it on there. I'm definitely buying some stuff next paycheck.
-
thanks guys for the support everything will go backinto acidmods as we have some pretty awesome long term plans for the site
-
hmmm seems i'm the only one, but i just checked the designs and they are boring.... Come on, we guys have the most pimped out gadgets and this is what we could come up with ? Sorta disappointed.....
-
yeh as i said in my main anouncement topic in reply to another member with a similar question
have you got any design in particular in mind as i am open to suggestions as i just whent for something plain and simple to begin with that could be warn at cons and other events so that people recognised it and could read it instantly and from afar - origionally this design was just going to be for staff like on the news team to ware when they do videos or video interviews to make them look more pro

@ mac - this tshirt will definitely serve that purpose well. But i guess what we would love is something that sorta represents our work here, which is awesome :) i want friends and people to visit this site, but sometimes mere mods aren't enough. A snazzy tshirt which shows that geeks too can be cool will go a long way. I'm having exams for the next 3 weeks, but will definitely try to come up with something after that.
Also , a suggestion is that why don't you try console specific t's....i am basically interested in a psp orientated or max ps3 tshirt. I personally hate the 360 and don't want anything to do with it lol ! Think about it......
-
that is a definate possibility i would need to know that the demand was there for me to go do a load more designs that are console specific
-
oh the demand is definitely there. There are enough geeks here :) just make it cool enough. I might look new here because of my low post count but this place is a second home for me. i've been here as an unregistered user for i don't know how long.... I want this site to grow. I've thought of some really cool design for the T and will mail you the design in a few weeks. It'll be really awesome :)
-
that would be fantastic dude. im always available over msn or pm to talk if oyu want to discuss things
-
will do :)
-
I was thinking a cool idea would be to have a shirt that has some consoles on it (similar to the current design) and it has AcidMods written on it. On the back, it could have the same consoles so it looks like you're looking at the back of the picture on the front, however, they all are modded. It would also say 'Where Consoles Evolve" on the back. I'm not sure if it's possible to have anything on the back, but that's my idea.
-
the idea is good, but the problem is that i think that first of all in small sizes it would be impossible to see the intricasy of the work done on them and you really wouldn't be able to tell whats up with the consoles. Also imho these modded consoles look best in person , pictures don't do them justice, they will not look too good printed on a tshirt. Our best bet is to go with logos and design silhouettes....
-
Very true.
