Do you want an Ozformer T-shirt

[Paulbot]

I think this will be easier than 50 people posting follow up ons the other thread (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=273&page=5).

Once 50 people or more have voted yes we can then use another poll to vote on the design and to sort out what sizes everyone are, and what state they are from.

I still think voting on design first might be a good idea but anyway... just didn't want 10 pages of posts of people just adding their name to a list :)

[Pulse]

Uh, I'll take a ticket! :)

[kup]

voted yes

[Paulbot]

I can see who voted Yes by clicking on the number in the poll results. Can others? Or is just because I created the poll/am a moderator?

I can also see the who results but that doesn't help answer your question about being a moderator and seeing the results:o

[jaydisc]

Yes, we can all see public polls. I'd like a shirt pending the design. For now, I've voted yes. Can we get Sofaman to donate his design? How about some extra profit margin in the shirt production to offset hosting costs?

[iceburn]

yeap..i can see too. good choice to do a poll paul!
better than listing which makes the thread way too long to manage later on

[GoktimusPrime]

I definitely want one! As I've mentioned before it's always great attending meets where everyone's in "uniform" - i.e.: wearing some TF related article of clothing, so the more TF clothes the merrier I say!

[Bartrim]

Where as I think it's great to see everyone in TF gear at meetups I prefer to see everyone in different TF clothing. IMO if we all wore the same shirt it would look pretty lame. That being said I would still like an Ozformers shirt of course :D

[TheDirtyDigger]

Sifun voted no!!!!

I'ma get STL to beat him up!

[sifun]

LOL how did you know I voted no?
I thought this was annonymous! What is this...
its over for me, i'm going to get hunted by all the melbournians. haha
Nearly got beaten up for stealin some chips off STL ;) (like i didn't shout you two packs of nerds you ingrate) lol!

I just think it would suck to have a tshirt that we would look all the same.
No individuality...

[roller]

i want my board name printed somwhere on the shirt as well

maybe in smalll print on the front, like school jerseys

[iceburn]

get a name tag roller :P *hehe*

[turtle boy]

I voted yes. :D

[Geminii]

I was thinking of doing up a customised tee with my avatar pic as a little 'corporate logo' thing. Not so large that it leaps out and smacks people in the face, but useful as a kind of name-tag thing for meetups.

And then there was maybe getting a jacket with the Australia/Autobot outlines on the back, for overseas cons. Instant way to find other Ausfans, shows up well in con photos, and prevents people trying to find me based purely on personal descriptions, which tend to lead to problems like this -

(I'm, uh, somewhat generic-looking for a Transfan.)

[komikskolektor]

It's easy to make it personalized, just buy those iron transfer paper and print your name and you can place it (iron it) wherever part of the shirt you like it:)

[autobreadticon]

It would be cool if we designed it like soccer jersery, unique number and nickname on the back :D (extra cost off course)

[dirge]

Poor sifun was all on his own!

(seriously, I do support the idea, but I doubt I'd grab one myself).

[SofaMan]

Yes, we can all see public polls. I'd like a shirt pending the design. For now, I've voted yes. Can we get Sofaman to donate his design? How about some extra profit margin in the shirt production to offset hosting costs?

Aaw, shucks. Actually, I'd be quite happy to donate my design for this. I'm sure we can work the Ozformers logo into it. Or just have that on the back. :)

ok pple!! we are half-way there at 25 votes
i'm going to disregard those 2 ...*erm erm erm erm erm erm* other that don't want a tee for the club made :(

i might be keen for 2 too if it does look good

Look @$$wipe. You touch my TFs that's okay. You touch my gf that's okay. You touch my chips, now that ain't okay. Nerds or no nerds.

:p

Hot chips = proof that there's a god out there, punks.

[Bartrim]

Now that sounds cool. Gives us a sort of uniform but keeps individual too. (Plus I generally like any sort of sporting jersey):D

:confused:I don't know if I want to wear a Soccer Jersey, I'm happy with a T-shirt, you'd most probably find the expense would sky rocket going that way but I could be wrong.

[GoktimusPrime]

...that's a pretty darn COOL idea! Maybe not jerseys but maybe just football-style shirts (like what they wear when they play) - kind like this:
http://d.yimg.com/eur.yimg.com/ng/sp/empics/20071127/17/3054565715-soccer-friendly-sydney-fc-v-la-galaxy-telstra-stadium.jpg
i.e.: short sleeve
And yeah, you could have maybe your OzFormers username printed on the back. *teehee* :D

[liegeprime]

Im IN of course hehehe. Yes adding our username somewhere in the shirt individualizes it for each of us. of course this will be added cost as well.... sigh times like this wish that we have Phil price on shirt printing here. TF Phils shirts only costed them Php 300 each ( AU$7.50) shirt, with full on colored design and individuals username at the back of each shirt. They didn't even have 50 shirts made- it was less than 30 pieces. Aaah who am I kidding labors' cheap as there anyhows. Bring on them Ozformers Jerseys

Somehow I like the idea of it like football jerseys, makes the shirts even more appealing than it already is:D cool idea bread!

OK 33 votes already :D Be it polo shirt, long sleeves, rugby shirts or what I dont care ( as long as its not singlet) We just have ta have an official OTCA shirt!

A t-shirt sounds like an interesting idea, I'll vote yes ^^

[liegeprime]

Buying doubles IS an Option for me as well. It'll make a nice gift to my cousins who love TFs as well. As well as a nice homecoming gift to my friends back in Phils in TFPH when I go on holidays again.. the possibilities are endless:D

[1orion2many]

:)I'll double up as well, we need to work out how many doubles as this may get us close to the magical 50.:) From a quick look we should be up to 44 including doubles, I must admit i only checked on this page who would commit to 2 T-shirts:o.

[Omega Supreme]

I will grab one for sure.
Depending on the design some friends of mine might be interested as well.

I think a shirt with the big Ozmatrix on the front and a little Ozformers banner on the back would look good and as a second shirt, The banner at the front and a small Ozmatrix at the back. I also love the "You complete me" shirt

[roller]

or a busty woman saying 'Join me at Ozformers'

or a hunky bloke for the lady fans tshirts:D

[loophole]

i think the small matrix on the front and the purple ozformers on the back

[STL]

I like the orange background, feels more like the board to me.

[liegeprime]

I prefer all black shirt. "You complete me" design in front(lime green) Big Ozformers Banner at the back (orange backdrop). Although as its devastator in front, Purple backdrop looks very nice especially on black. OOOrrr it could be vice versa the ozformers banner in front ( which has the OZmatrix anyways so I counted that design out) and the "you complete me" design at the back. :D

I hope Sofaman doesnt mind though that weve been using his idea?

[iceburn]

with everyone's preferences..i dont think this will work out
can we come to a common consent somehow?

[Pulse]

As long as this gets off the ground, We can figure out the T-shirt design later. :)

We'll set up a Multiple-choice thing, Even though I'm pretty sure not everyone will want the same T-shirt design.

As long as we make the design :cool:, I've got a feeling the general consensus will be "I like it! :)"

i reckon the ozformers logo should go on the back of the devastator one so that when people walk past they see the front and go what the? and as you walk away they see OZFORMERS!!!

We could always stick roller's head on the front..

loophole: while I agree that's a neat idea, wouldn't it increase the cost of the shirts?

I'm just photoshopping these onto pics from that www.pistolclothing.com.au website (gamblor posted an acquisition from there the other day)
Buying separately, $35 + $10 shipping
They have a "Corporate Order" option for bulk printing, which i'd imagine is cheaper, but requires more organization on everyone's part. Shipping to one location initially then distributing them to members might negate the benefits.. you'd need to request a quote to get numbers.

I like the design turtle boy posted just then, i think it should have 'ozformers' on the back too, and maybe on the front have our board names.

[jaydisc]

Rampage, those are hysterical! Well done!!!

Kurdt's are damn appropriate though. The orange is even good, although it would closet-warm in my case, but I'm down for a dark red one. That looks great.

[gamblor916]

Rampage that's gold.

[griffin]

I have been following this topic, and like the designs being posted (some are similar to the shirts I did up this year that I took to BotCon (http://www.otca.com.au/bc08/m63.jpg)). The place I got them done was limited by the shape of the image - it has to be square or rectangular. That meant that the black one had a noticable solid rectangle of black printed on the shirt with the logo and wording. One way around it was to make the rectangle part of the image, by colour or pattern, esentially 'hiding the printed rectangle in plain sight'. I also wanted to recolour the wording (it was done in B&W to hopefully get around using the trademarked TFs logo without permission) and rearrange it, but never got around to it yet since I got back.
As nice as the B&W lettering looked on the computer screen (looked metallic), it just didn't turn out too nicely on the shirts, and just looked cheap.
Mind you, a white tshirt doesn't have to worry as much about a background rectangle, because you can hardly see it printed on the white fabric. It is just necessary for a background colour/pattern for a black tshirt to 'hide' the rectangle the print shop will end up putting on there.
But this is through one of those print shop kiosks at a nearby shopping centre, so maybe an actual tshirt printer company would have a different process. Though, last time I checked (about 7 years ago) they have such a huge minimum quantity, it may be the same for any shirt print companies (due to their cheaper per-unit process).

I need a couple of hours to play with this to put together something I would prefer, that is legal, recognisable and most importantly, good enough for us to want to wear in public. I keep putting it off, because there is always something else that needs to be done first when I turn on the computer. I want to do something this weekend though, since there is so much interest at the moment.

I also want to see if Hasbro AUS will let us use the TFs logo, if we guarantee that it remains a club shirt that is for members only (not sold publically, or for profit), and the logo plays a minor role in the design.

Prices for the print shop kiosk is about $25-30 for the shirt and the printing on one side. I think it was another $10-15 for both sides to be done, making it too expensive to get both back and front done from that sort of source. And a bulk order will probably knock off a few dollars off each, if the design is the same on each (not personalised).
Some prices have already been posted here, but I might check out some other sources from my end for a more definite price range for people here to expect (when this goes ahead).

[griffin]

For the record, as much as I like the Devastator image, and how it would make a good shirt on its own, I don't think it should be integrated with the board logo as a club shirt unless we were planning to incorporate Devastator as part of our forum logo and image in general. Personally, it reminds me too much of the Jerry Maguire movie, which is the ultimate chick flick, and feels a little too 'girly' for me *personally* to want one to wear. Others won't feel the same, and would be comfortable in wearing it, but we need to make sure this club shirt is something everyone is happy with.

Kurtd's shirt printer suggestion is worth investigating, if nothing cheaper can be found.

[STL]

I'm with bossbot. Down with lame cringeworthy one liners!

[GoktimusPrime]

kurdt's idea of personalised shirts is really growing on me. Maybe we could do OzFormers jerseys/guernseys (cos I'm way too old to wear my year 12 one... which has probably been thrown out by now)!! :D We could have TF factions on the front as a small breast-insignia (like they do with school logos) and then our handles on the back! And instead of "08" or whatever on the back we could have the OzFormers matrix logo with the web address as a sub title. The OzFormers web address could appear under the breast insignia, much like how school jerseys have the school name under the school logo. The guernsey option would be very expensive though and we would have to take a lot of orders to make it worthwhile.

So perhaps kurdt's suggestion would be a cheaper alternative. :)

Hey komikskolektor - did you say you do shirt printing too?

some good ideas Gok but i couldn't see us getting jerseys with that much detail (embroidered logos etc) for under $90-100 a piece maybe more depending on how many people order one

what is the legality of using transformer style fonts, images of characters & faction symbols on the shirts anyhow?

also if the shirts are going to be laser printed what is the minimum resolution the design has to be made at?

[kurdt_the_goat]

I don't think I came up with the idea for personalized shirts... i just suggested a couple of colours!

Personally, I think printing on both sides/personalization is not worth the extra cost ($10 per shirt @ that site). That said, I don't see any reason why those who DO want double sided, personalized shirts can't get them on their own, using the single sided "official" design as a starting point. The main reason i don't think it's worth the extra $10 though, is because of the complexity of organizing it. If each user took it upon themselves to personalize the design, their results would vary depending on their graphical ability, and if a single user was doing all the personalized versions for everyone, it'd be a load of work!

Griffin, do you have a high-resolution version of the OzFormers logo? If so can you put it up for download? I can redraw the logo in vector format, but since it appears 3D rendered, a high resolution render would best be able to capture all the detail.

[GoktimusPrime]

Yeah, like I said, the guernsey option would be very expensive and beyond what most folks would be willing to pay for Transformers clothes.

So I think we should stick to the T-shirt idea. :)

[gamblor916]

This place looks ok and they do screen print small runs with reasonable prices.
They also have a buy 2 free shipping offer. I might give these guys a go later.

For those of us who recently completed Year 12 (& who subsequently got a guernsey), Do you remember how much your guernsey set you back?

[blackie]

mine cost me about $80 i think, and all i had was my name on the back and an embroided school name on the breast. nice tho, for some reason my gf stole it :P

[dirge]

BTW you're not actually talking about a "guernsey", which is a traditional style (woollen) AFL jersey. You're referring to a rugby jersey, which is traditionally cotton.

They're both named after Channel Islands, but there's a big difference guys. I thought I should mention it in case you find you get the wrong product delivered :eek:

Mine was $120.00

But there was only 28 of us that finished.

Hold on, you finished Year 12 years ago... :D

Then again, I know bulk buys that schools make knock the purchase price down a fair bit

Furthermore, with only 28 people finishing Year 12 in your year (& even less ordering a guernsey) your school probably wouldn't have received much of a discount at all

Ah, the good ol' days where people didn't really care about their HSC :p

P.S.: Yeah I meant jerseys.

Just my 2 cents.

Love Rampages shirts... However what would those of us who don't use a character as a handle have as our picture?

I like the geurnsey idea. I would be willing to pay that much.

Basically I like all the ideas I've seen so far:)

That's why I like kurdt's idea. Just have individualised handles but all feature the same graphic. :)

okay ladies and gentlemen, where are we going at this?
could we at least come to some conclusion?
do we need another poll for the T-shirt design?
