I went ahead and changed the Golf Shirt layout, removing the design from the back per Janet's suggestion. Can't argue with a woman's fashion sense!

I have seen some hats like that.
not sure about the hats, but the shirts are a direct to print process which looks and wears alot better than the heat transfers.
I part own a T-shirt company, I do only heat transfers, because I only sell as a vendor at car shows and do it on a "made to order" basis, I have found in the last few years the heat transfers have gotten a lot better, I'm not saying its of better quality than this "direct print" but I'm wondering what exactly is a direct print ? Is it like screen printing?

If the sleeveless shirts come out in any dark color ill definitely take 2. the drop down menu only goes to XL but the sizing chart goes to 4X what's up with that ?

I hinted to my girlfriend last night that a good fathers day present would be a regular shirt and a golf shirt so I could wear it to work. Within five minutes they were ordered. Can't wait!!

What about the thong you ordered Doc? We need to know about the fit and finish of that product too. \:D

Seriously.. thanks for the feedback and input. I'm glad to hear you're satisfied.

Ok folks.. I've added some more products to the shop. One that might be of interest.. and one I'm looking for feedback on is this license plate frame:



I can adjust the wording at the top if someone can think of something else to go up there, or if you want something unique like your screen name there... we can do that. I can also change the color of the background should you want black, or some other color. Note: This is not an engraved plastic type holder. The image is applied with a UV protected vinyl decal. See the shop for more details.

I added the black t-shirt so people could see what it looks like. If someone wants to be the guinee-pig and order it.. have at it. Again, we're not sure how it will turn out.

Other items I've added include a yellow t-shirt, green t-shirt (the only other colors available), throw pillow, journal, greeting cards, post cards, 10pk magnets, buttons, framed tile, tile box and, (drum roll please) boxer shorts. LOL.

I recieved my first shirt yesterday, and promptly ordered more items today.

On a side note, my girlfriend doesn't do thongs at all, so thats out, but did mention if someone were to buy her the fitted T-shirt she'd consider modeling it....

\:D This girl is turning into a keeper!

For those who have already ordered - is United States Postal Service an option for shipping? I couldn't find anything about shipping on the site.

My first order came by USPS. Second one I opted for the "1-5 day" shipping, but wasn't told how it was coming.

How about: "Addicted To" or "Obsessed With"
"Better Than Sliced Bread"

Can it be ordered with the black background and gold letters instead of white or other car matching combos?

My packages are coming UPS, I was set a tracking number and a link to the UPS website. I don't know if I got UPS because I ordered so many items or what the deal is. My second order as the license plate frame only and was shipped UPS also.


Edit: I just checked my order progress and found that my plate frame is coming UPS which in turn is sending it through USPS, makes no sense when both my orders went out the same day they could have just slipped the frame in with the shirts and other stuff(not the thong LOL)

I have bought one of the black hats in the past and at that time it was the design printed on a "Patch" that was then embroidered on. It's not a print-on-the-hat-itself design. I don't know how they're doing the "trucker" hat, but I imagine it might be the "patch-less" design. I just don't care much for the whole "trucker" look.

FWIW, CafePress sent out notifications the other day that they upgraded their black shirt printing process. Might be worth a try now. I'm making up a black t-shirt, along with some other stuff that I'll have a the Nationals. (Paul, how full can you get your suitcases ;\)

Randy, others...

CafePress has at least 2 facilities, one in Kentucky and the other in California. It's possible that one of your items was made at once facility and the other kind of item was made at the other facility.

Great designs! Gimme a few weeks (perhaps @ the Nationals, but not looking promising) and I can provide some SC pictures.

Hmmm... anywhere when ordering to send them a message from what you saw? I might have to send a general email to see if you can request USPS. Anything else and a $15 plate frame ends up costing me $50-60 by the time it gets here :rolleyes:

Agreed - black with silver lettering would be even better IMO \:\)

Paul, do custom colour have to be set up by you through their site, or can they just be requested when ordering?

A different license plate frame with white letters on black background...



But black is going to be one of the primary colors of my site... blue is the primary background for this site, so I think blue should be the main option.
