Tim, if the design on my second one is picked I can tweak it to look right since I have the original files with all the layers saved. That erasing you did on the corner is bugging me... wants to fix it.[:D]

I just tossed them up here as quick as I could. I think everyones designs look worse this small and after I messed with them. Thats why I recommend everyone looks at the other thread to see more how they would look.

I voted for number 6, I love the desing, but I think that it might be better to have the crossed sabers on the front, the text on the back. This is just my opinion (I am an artist myself), so if you think it is best the original way xwingband, just ignore me. [:D]

I wonder...........would #1 look better with 2 sabers, crossed, behind the logo?

[Mur-Pa DiLos]

I agree with Jedi Ranger. Totally, bada$$!!! Combine the two sabers clashing, either a blue and a red, or blue with a blue, or a red with a green... hehehehe. I love the first one's script. It definitely has my vote because how it pulls you into looking at the website without you knowing exactly what you'll find. (Luke going into the cave, a curiosity kills the cat thing) It would definitely be a conversation piece, but it does need two sabers on the back!

Perfection!!!

[BenReilly]

I voted #2, i just think thats funny.....I liked #1 also.....but they are all cool so ither way it's all good.

[xwingband]

I have the layers so it'd take just a few minutes for me to turn around with a mix and match design. I kind of did that on purpose.

Okies, sort of like this:

Is that what everyone meant?

[Nightwing]

Yes!! Just like that. If not two sabers, then one saber pointing straight up. That way it'll be symmetric.

[Matt]

yes, i would vote for 1 if it had too sabers, don't really care with colors just needs two different ones

[suit_man]

i would like design one alot better if it had thicker blades on the sabers. they seem too skinny.

i am a nerd, if you don't like it, i will cut you with my lightsaber

[xwingband]

Whoa. I can't go switching it to satisfy everyone.[;)] This shirt may never get out of the design process if we nit-picky.

Matt, I assume you mean the hilts? I just took some pics of the modular hilt system to get it to show off Tim's products even in that small way. It adds a nice touch to me and it avoids using any canon hilts that may be a no-no. I could easily change one hilt out but there are few hilts to go so I don't think it'll make a difference.

suit-man, I could fix that too but it's rather nit-picky. It's not meant to be super accurate. I certainly hope you didn't abstain because of a little detail like that.

[suit_man]

no, i like the design. i'm sorry to be nit-picky, i just thought it may be something that others thought too.

[Strydur]

I am sure there will be some adjustments done once a winner is chosen. Like I dont think a full back can be printed but who knows. Just chose the main design idea you like best.

I Like the design portion of number one.. with the sabers and MHS hilt behind the logo.. but rather than have the paragraph (which is good ) .. I like the quote of " Build your own!!! " Its an attention getter, without people having to stare at your chest, or backside long enough to read a paragraph :)

No prob, if more say this I'll adjust it. For now I'll just leave it as until the voting is over. If mine is picked I'll work with Tim to get it just right.

[Matt]

sorry to be picky, and yes i meant the hilts, just thought i would put my two cents in, but it's a great design, and whether or not it is changed for my specific wants as far as the hilts go, i'll still probably get one,

Maybe i'll get Tim and Xwing to sign them. lol

GO #1 GO!!

[Mur-Pa DiLos]

Go #1! Heck yes, about the twin sabers! I like how they're the MHS... it's just good business.

[desertscorpion]

Ditto. I had a thought... or more of a testimony and a question. When I first saw a MR saber a couple of years ago, I was like "Cool, I want one!" But, when I first saw an LED saber on ebay just a couple of months ago I was BLOWN AWAY!!! So, the only possible suggestion I might have to a shirt that's pretty stinkin' cool already is a photo transfer of one of the led sabers or something showing noticeable flare, and also a phrase above the web address that says, "Not available in stores." or something like that. What do you guys think?

[xwingband]

I did think of using an LED saber as the pic using some of those Tim alreay owns but there's the problem of the ambient light they give off. It's hard to transfer that over and keeping that indefinate edge to the light it's throwing out. In addition I thought it'd be easier to print the shirt with a made up pic that really only has 3 grades of one color blended.

Hmmm....True. True. Maybe a good attempt could be made, though. (?)

[Neymore]

[Strydur]

Ok here is the shirt done up so far.

xwing can you let me know what fonts you want used on the front and I need the picture on the back done up with as few colors as you can. Maybe make 1 blade the same color red as the logo and the other the green in the logo. Use your graphics program to count the color used and see what you can do please.

SWEET![:D]

I used "BankGothic Md BT" for the text. I thought it was closest to the logo text and had the Star Wars feel.[:D] Should we continue working on the details via e-mail?

"Complete your training....
Build your own!"

would have been my vote for the wording on #1.

A good shirt and design.......I'll take one if they're made available.

Reality often interferes with what would otherwise be an idyllic delusion.

[Mur-Pa DiLos]

I like it! Put me up for one!

[tetmatek]

Hey strydur if you use my guy he can do 6 color screens

[Madcow]

Madcow,

LOL, it's a bit late. Even thought the poll is still open this effectivly ended many weeks ago.

#1(mine) modified to two sabers won. Last Tim said to me he was trying to get a way to make the sabers to look cool yet still be one color. I assume he's working with the t-shirt printer.
