Re: Shirt Ideas

I like the shirt that has the 2 Sy's and 2 Ty's and also shows all the Southeast States.

What about changing one of Sy's to a Malboro Sy and changing out the Red Ty to another color Ty? This would give 2 of each in all different colors. Just my :2cents:

Let me know once a design has been decided as my brother works at a shirt print shop in Orlando and I could order through him.

Re: Shirt Ideas

I like the direction of this one.

Let me reemphasis... I REALLY like the direction of this one. It balances well, fills up the back of the shirt and the angles of the trucks are perfect. It would resize well enough to just use the splatter, red box and "southest syty shindig" text for simplistic front shirt design.

Only thing I would change... nothing against harmons truck, but I would put a white typhoon in there instead, same angle. The sy doesnt bother me other than the fact is doesnt have stock rims.

The first ones have potential, but the whole angle slant layout just bothers me and feels way unbalanced as far as design goes.

Re: Shirt Ideas

Are you guys stuck on shindig? I was thinking maybe hootnanny or ho-down? lol

alright, we may be the southeast, but we arent fully redneck....at least, some of us arent. hootnanny and ho-down is just a bit to backwoods and absolutely no one would take it seriously as far as outside vendors/sponsors are concerned.

Shindig stays ;)

OH MY GOD!!!!! Hootnanny/Ho-down. sounds like some of the names i have called some of my Ex-girlsfriends. You can't be serious some of us were raised with a little red on our neck but not that red.


I mean i drink shine/dark liquor and smoke, love muddin and drag racing at a track that is call the N(Word) Nationals. Alot of us though are in professional Jobs (I am a Banker and wear a suit and tie to work everyday) through and not just some deep south red neck with no educataion.

Re: Shirt Ideas

Just an update on that last design. I had my shirt person print it on a few different darker colored shirts. The red background printed at the color I made it is super dark. We lightened it up to match more of what it looks like on the screen then printed and it started to come out alright. But on a dark shirt Harmons truck sort of blends into the back ground color. A lighter color might be best for the shirts.

Re: Shirt Ideas

update on the shirt.

Sense the last test shirt was done, and to much of the design was dark. My shirt person brought over a friend who has a different software to run the print machine. Apparently how clear/well you can print on shirts depends on how bad ass of the software you have, or how much you are willing to spend on it... Needless to say she said she's upgrading here soon lol.

They played around with the color balance and lightened up the shirt a little to make what you see here. I'm going in and changing small parts of the design so that when it prints it will be clearer, or the colors won't bleed as much and it won't be bleached out like you see below. (Adam, you might want to hold off on that pdf I sent you and wait till I redo it a little ;))

On the first pic, they forgot to delete the white background and clean up the white in the lettering here and there like you see on the second pic. but you get the idea if this was on a black shirt. Or, a white/gray/ash color really with the background still in there. If we go with black shirts, I might have to do a small white outline on the "shingdig" part so it won't blend in with the shirt. No biggie though.

The spots I've made darker sense the original file she used to do these. I've also played around with a different sy in the design. But I cant get it to look as good. No picture with the same angle. I've even chopped in stock wheels on Roberts truck, it just doesn't look good. So this will be the final shirt design when cleaned up.
