Autoshite Merchandise

[trigger]

Good work Fred, i've sent a email back with a copy of the logo at the top, hopefully that will be better, i looked the one on the main site but It's in a different shape format to the one on the forum which wouldn't make a good window sticker imho.

[FredTransit]

I'd be interested in some Autoshite Y-fronts to replace my current pair of semenally stained undercrackers. I'd like the Autoshite bit on the back (or the arse-piece if you like) as this part of the pantage has the most area surface also it would be a sort of ironic and also the logo would be free from any sort of distortion when viewing a Tagora or 604 for example...not that I look at cars in my pants...much.

Er, best I could come up with.....

 

 

Here's the rest here.....

Please no brush script, terrible font!

Yeah, it's no Comic Sans.

[FredTransit]

I will try again, but that looked the nearest, in the meantime be offended by the same logo on some more merch

It doesn't look like comic sans either, if that's what you mean.... BTW, I hope whoever designed the logo isn't gonna sue me!

I think the logo would look better with a transparent background

I'll go with the majority view of stickers = yes, clothing = no. I've always felt there's something a bit sad about car related clothing, like the people who wander around car shows dressed out like rally support crew

[FredTransit]

Each to their own, nothing wrong with a club T shirt, I have one of me own..... Stickers are a major problem, there is nowhere you can 'make a sticker online to buy directly, ie order them for yourself, as opposed to somebody having to buy a minimum run and sell them one or two at a time.

no it's cotton from Spreadshirt!

 

 

Was thinking of doing some for AS, let me know if anybody wants me to do any particular car (I will need a clear pic to make a line drawing)

Now if that Tranny shirt didn't have the writing then it'd look more than alright, personally I think there is a very fine line between t-shirts that use a car within a graphic-art image and carry it off well and shirts that just look a bit wank and I've noticed that its usually the latter generally. I've seen some great Mini t-shirts, very simple very understated and you could wear one feeling that you're wearing a bit of graphic art referencing a nice icon of motoring, I am thinking twice however because I would look like a sad twat getting out of my mini wearing car a mini inspired garment.

I was for a year a member of the Rover SD1 club back in the day before the interweb made life easy for collecting shit, they had (with real-life models) some childrens t-shirts with Rover SD1 club written all over them, not only did the shirts look gash but I felt sorry for the poor little kids that had to don them on a whim of an adult who ought to have known better.

[FredTransit]

That's the shirt I did for my forum, so I kind of thought the URL was a bit important!

Yeah I know, difficult one because you are trying to promote something and obviously if it were just the Transit it wouldn't give me any info so I understand why you put it there I was just saying it would look good in its own right with just the transit on there.

[FredTransit]

I know what you mean, yes it would, and I have the design but I might put some profit on it, if it's not advertising me forum!

This guy does some pretty 'autoshite' t-shirts, but insists on putting silly strap lines on them.

 

 

While this one is just strange

 

 

Yeah, it's no Comic Sans.

 

The font of thickies.

Aren't they just copies of real ads? If they are not, that's what they are supposed to look like.

Thanks mate much appreciated

[FredTransit]

I was doing em through Cafepress mate! I did the Spreadshirt one, but you have to convert the design to a vectra design to print it on black.

"Anorak mode" - No because the coupe is a Mk2, whilst the 'beauty with brains behind tag line' was only used for the Mk1' - "Anorak mode"

[FredTransit]

Oh I get you, but I think it's supposed to look like an advert. Any news on the stickers yet?

[Minimad5]

Minimad what do you think of that?http://autoshite.spreadshirt.net/en/GB/ ... e/10283406

I Like It (Sorry FredTransit but your gonna hate me) . . . Any chance of the autoshite being on it ? Dont hate , Congratulate

[FredTransit]

If you mean the actual official logo, no cos as I explained it needs to be converted to a different file type for me to upload it to the site (for black T shirts) so I used the best match font. The jpg files can only be used on white T shirts. No idea why. Have you thought of copying the logo and printing on to iron on transfer paper, to put it on your own T shirt? Or you could take the logo on a memory stick or CD to a copy shop, most do one off T shirts now. Not a cheap way of doing it though....

Okay mate not a problem Thanks anyway i'll look in my local market at a place i know does transfers (totally forgot they were there)If no one can get Screen Stickers again ill ask in a business i know that does that sort of stuff too (ProntaPrint)

[M'coli]

Shouldn't the T-shirt be brown, or do we just buy the white one and stick it through the wash with a load of instant coffee and some salt and hope for the best?I'd buy one anyway.

Yes, But not good.The logo i sent that you had made larger Fred was still to small, It needs to be 100kb or 300 dpi to would seem, Which i think will be the same problem with everyone you contact for stickers.Also the measurement comes out at 11" x 1" so it won't scale to 6" x 2 but that's not a problem.Price wise your looking at for 100 stickers would be £150 first timeSecond time out £1 each. In static cling (lick and stick).So i guess you be looking at £2.25 each posted but you would still have to find £150 for the original outlay for them and hope you sell them all as well.

[M'coli]

What if interested parties chipped in to help with initial outlay?
