LFGSS Official T-Shirts

I sense a pattern.

I'm a frayed sow.

You've made a pig's ear of that comment mate.

lets not skirt around the issue

This thread is coming apart at the seams.

Darn it

we're a closely knit bunch

this is getting out of hand. time to unravel this thread.

I'm in stitches

Are we trying to knit a yarn, or wreck a perfect thread?

If designs - with 50 or more votes - translated into actual sales (a run of less than 50 might not be finically viable), and they sold at £12 each, the revenue would be £29,136 (!) - I am sure you could make a decent profit on that (I have no clue what the mark up is ?).

Even though people have been asked to vote for t-shirts they would actually buy so votes should be seen as an indicator of sales, some votes may not make it to sales (and I am sure many people who have not voted will end up buying t-shirts, as happened on the last run) . . . but even if half the votes turn into sales there is a few grand to be made.

I don't think £15 is too much to ask for a bespoke t-shirt (??) - and at £15 each . . and assuming the above (votes roughly = intention to purchase), the revenue would be £36,420.

£15 for two?

Are the shirts still available?

Can you post to USA?

Sorry.

Not quite, out beloved leader has asked us to vote for the ones we think should be made and the current voting only reflects a level of favouritism. Some designs in the voting gallery are on multiple colours. If all but one of the votes were for a t-shirt on one colour, it wouldn't be fair to the lone dissenter to have to buy a product that they didn't want just because the mob had spoken.

The second round of voting should show more clearly what the actual selling levels will be as these will be the commitment to purchase votes. I may only buy two t-shirt rather than the eight designs that I said were worth considering buying from.

I voted for all the shirts I would buy, but not for the ones that I actually will buy as filtered through the second round (as David requested)--actual sales will be much lower than the votes in just now. But tynan is of course right that the shirts with the most votes are likely to sell in large numbers based on this, especially as shirts with fewer votes than whatever the threshold will be won't be produced. It will be interesting to see how many are actually ordered in the end, but even with a lot of pessimism, say 20%, the projected revenue would be good.

So do we need to send in the larger Jpeg's Psd's Eps' etc??? What's a happpenin now?

Velocio: Votes on the poll will be considered an "interest in purchasing"

Or more accurately.

**Velocio: **OK, Round 1 of voting is open:

The point of this round... to decide which shirts we will produce.

The 2nd round will determine how many we make, what colours, sizes, materials.

So right now... you have 1 week (until the end of May) to say which shirts you would consider purchasing if they were made available.

So I've read the last couple of pages (you people and your puns crack me the f up!) and I voted on three shirts out of all of them that I was most likely to purchase. Have I missed a round where we vote on the ones we actually want to put money down on?

c'mon flaming puke cock! you can doooo eeeeeet!

It is my understanding that there is now going to be a second round of voting in which you essentially 'place an order' on the designs you want to actually pay for

Matt, please tell me you'll be making this up even if it doesn't win. I need it in my life.
