Oh you better believe I need me one of these.

It is looking like the new design is popular!  I need to tweak a few things (that black you see on the bananas is bleed through...I might need to use a lighter background).  And we have 2 options:
*bulk order and start to bring down the price...this saves $$ but makes it more work for me (I think).  I think, and I might be wrong, that I would have to order them and then send them to you all.
*I can make it a public page on Zazzle.  Right now that means it is $31.45 for the boy shirt and $35.45 for the girls shirt.  But I could add a kids shirt option if I do it this way (I was thinking about a kids shirt Big Sky).  And I wouldn't have to worry about sorting out sizes and you could always buy 2 if the feeling overcomes you.  And again, I repeat, all profit would go to Ethos in Portland, OR.  And lord knows, because they keep pulling arts/music education from our public schools, Ethos is needed in our community now more than ever....

Thoughts?

I suggest this option...it's more $$$ but much easier for everyone...

Thanks for all you have done... :)

I actually kind of like the bleed through...looks kinda cool.

We know one thing for sure, Haldon will wear the HELL out of this shirt!

HOORAY!

liz, perfect clip art!  i also favor your OG text.  i think you can import your old .doc text into photoshop, but you probably don't have it.  (i don't have it either.)

anyone out there have a program that can transform liz's text into a jpeg?

I do...I have photoshop

val,   can you take the text from a word doc and import it without it becoming all bit-mapped?

val is Bluesky...I'm Bigsky (Ben)...

I would print the word doc to a PDF and then convert the PDF to a jpeg in Photoshop...

I will give it a shot...Mr. Wizzard has photoshop on his laptop, I just don't have it on my Mac.  I will transfer the file to his computer tomorrow and maybe load both options on Zazzle (if we are going for a public page, why not?)....
I will keep you posted!

This may sound noobish and will reveal my age.....but did the original song have anything to do with Bananas at any point? or was Jim just making fun of the lil singing part at the end? like it sounds like "ba ba bananana" or was that something real lol

No...but Jim busted out the Ba Ba Bananas chant first at the Fillmore in 2006 (NYE).  He is just silly and that is what is so great.....

That's cool. I had a feeling it wasn't the first night with bananas - but that's pretty sweet. thanks

If you listen to the end of that song (I just did)...GM isn't singing ba ba bananas...so JJ is just being JJ

Ok, this should probably be in the "current shames" thread, but what song are we talking about?  I've heard of the ba-ba-bananas talk, but...yeah.  fill me in.  thanks.  i'll probably be getting one of these T's too.
We could.
