Gauging interest on Gatorchatter t-shirts

[oxrageous]

Let's focus borderless on the logo for the shirts. Like this:

On a blue shirt, the background would blend, leaving just the orange head. On a white shirt you could just leave it background-less, and leave the area inside the head blue, and perhaps make "gatorchatter.com" blue. I think I'm also leaning initially on a small logo over the heart, and a large logo on the back.

Small pocket logo on the front, nothing on the back.

How boring is that? Who will even see it?

Let's focus borderless on the logo for the shirts. Like this:

On a blue shirt, the background would blend, leaving just the orange head (with white GATORCHATTER.COM). On a white shirt you could just leave it background-less, and leave the area inside the head blue, and perhaps make "gatorchatter.com" blue. I think I'm also leaning initially on a small logo over the heart, and a large logo on the back.

This would be my idea of the perfect shirt! I would buy 2 of these. One for me and one for my Mom. She'd love it!

Imagine this as the back, with a small logo on the front:

Now, with the border less look, I like this on the front.

You probably could get away with doing this on the front as well, just like that, but maybe taking off the website and putting it on the back of the shirt. The logo is awesome at any rate, and is great to build upon. Would be cool to have more text though, more amusing sayings, etc.

We are trained to look at the left corner of tshirts due to how retail stores put their logos/name tags. Back of Tshirts are sometimes memorable, but a lot of times their are just white noise.

That's pretty badass and I really like the subtle change.

I've dealt with screening some. Taking Gatorchatter off for the front only or switching sizes doubles the cost as their is a separate screen setup for each change.

Once the screen is setup, it's basically just buying a shirt and having them screen it. So, if some guys want white and some blue no big deal. People wanting different sizes of the screen is a big deal.

Also, Ox, if you do the large logo on the back, with a small logo on the front, the banner at the top of the page would look awesome as the small logo on the front.

Ox, my best friend out here owns an embroider and screen printing shop. I know I could get a good deal from him if you need any help.

Another very good idea. Ox is going to pull his hair out trying to mock up all these ideas but I think we're going to end up with a nice final product!

Ox, question, though not a huge deal or anything, just curious, should you go forward with this, which looks like you are very interested in doing so, where will the profits go? Back into the site? Do you have bigger plans for this place? If so, what are your ideas? I'd love to see this place blow up!

If we could get 2-3 of these T-shirts being worn to games, I'm thinking we'd see some explosion in new posters registering. There's nothing like free advertisement.

I like this idea...

Profits (and trust me there isn't big profits on t-shirts unless you sell them in huge amounts) would go towards maintenance and expansion of the site. My plans are to make this the #1 Gator forum on the internet. I'd love to expand into articles, blogs, promotions, and some other things I'm not going into yet. All of this is in its infancy, but it's been a great start.

That's the main reason the logo and full site name need to be on the back of the shirt to start.
