I'm looking for feedback from you guys - I'd like to print this to wear on Day 3 of the October Jackethon...and anyone else who wants one is more than free to do so. As I've said in other threads, my idea for a clock arms shirt went from this:
  \o/
toOot

to these:






Other ideas are to change the text to say "Hey Patrick, What Time Is It?" around the image, or a combination of the two with the words on the front and image on the back or something (though that seems a bit much).

And I do not wish to cause any conflicts with merchandising rights, Patrick's personal rights or privacy, or anything like that, so if that's the case, I apologize and nuke this thread from orbit.

i like the way you think

i'm gonna keep on working on it, the red one was an accident. Run Thru seems like a "green" song to me at heart. But the red just looked cool. I want to try and keep it tri-tone for easier/cheaper screen printing too

LOVE it! Good work, Choder!

I'd like one, if we can make that happen.

Nice work.  Let me know when you start taking orders.

I'd like the image to put on an actual clock face.  That would be cool, no?

If you guys want to manipulate this shit into something more adventurous, feel free. In fact, email or PM me and I'll send you some of the raw files or export it into a lossless large format.

My only suggestion is to avoid cafe press since they are disgustingly overpriced, even if you're just doing it for your own purposes and not "selling" anything. I'll probably print my shirt at a local place called the tshirt factory or something since they screen print and they're local and I won't pay $20 for a $5 shirt.

They all look great man!  I'm partial to green.  Definitely dig the "What time is it?" one.  You know Choder, I'm feeling your keyboard art one to.  You definitely have to put that in that thread but I think that would be a cool shirt to.  OK, enough of trying to complicate things.  I would love a green L/XL.

Those are totally cool! I think I like the first one the best.
How loud can silence get?

joey_rogo

yeah wow, those kick ass. i want one.

Love Dogg

These are so badass, I can't even stand it! I really dig the first one, but if you pick one and make a few, I'll trade you out for a Jim shirt  I'm having made.

Let me know if you're interested in that, I'll send you a rough image of mine.

I'm flat broke. I'm unemployed and can't find a paying job (or any unpaid ones for that matter). So I won't be making any shirts until the shows edge closer.

Once I do, I'll probably try and get like 10 to see if I can get a bulk rate at around $10/shirt. That's what I got last time I made up some tshirts, so we'll see. It beats the $17 I'd pay at cafe press.

With that said, if you've got your own ways or means, feel free to contact me and I'll send you the highest quality version I can to DIY. If anyone wants to pool resources to try and get some made as cheaply as possible, that's fine too.

Also, when you guys say "the first one", I assume you mean the one that's charcoal, right?

Sweet! I like the charcoal one the best as well. Keep it like that and put "Oh shit Run!" on the back

Hey, el_C.  I'll pay you $10 for a crack at that image.  Do you do Paypal?  Email me: johnnYYac@comcast.net

Its a cool design.  I could make a shirt with your design and your permission, of course.  Make sure you sign the image somewhere.  I'd like to see that in one of the bottom corners.

Let's help 'im out, if ye can.  If I can make a shirt and a clock from el_chode's design, that's worth $10.

the BLUE what time is it.......that is pretty fantastic!

Nice Skillzzzzzzzzzzz
:)

I am not too savvy with all of this image/transfer/cafe press etc ....so if anyone takes this project on, I will be happy to pay!

woodnymph

TIE DYED VARIATION WOULD BE MAGNIFICENT btw. Hell if you put it on white, I'd dye it maself!

Put me down in the book for one. DIg the "oh shit run!" theme in there somewhere too!

I likes the charcoal one but I likes how the face is a bit simpler in the red one... or something about it.... I'd take 'em either way, very nice indeed!  [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Thanks guys, I'm flattered that you like it so much, especially since I've got no formal artistic background at all. Thing is, I feel dirty making any money or profiting from using Patrick's face/image and the band's logo, especially without their sanctioning it. Hell, I just spent a semester learning how to negotiate a live performance agreement and who gets what from merchandising rights, so I feel doubly dirty in that sense.

That's not to say we shouldn't print these, I'll look into the cost to make a bunch and see where it goes from there
