Re: How do team make a logo

Don't have the invoice for our 2012 shirts, but the SCRIW shirts (70, one-sided) ran us $6.58 on a lighter shirt than we use for the team shirts (which, obviously, see more use).

You'll notice that our shirts are very simple--the 2012 shirt was the most extravagant with two colors on each side--but they still work for us! In any case, make sure you've got a one-color (or, if you absolutely must, two-color) version of your logo for print uses.

*We actually paid a bit more for rush shipping; we drug our feet a bit on the design. But that was poor planning on our part and not a reflection on RushOrderTees.
^ THIS THIS THIS!

RushOrderTees helped 1923 in 2007/2008 when we were in a very very serious bind. As in, it was two days before competition and we didn't have shirts. (There was a lot of drama going on.)

After about 20 minutes of crying hysterically to Mike (mike@rushordertees.com) on the phone, about how my team was falling apart and it was my dream to have a team at my school and oh god everything is awful (I was 15 at the time... ) he worked with me to get our tshirts designed, and we had them the next day.

Since then, I've recommended RushOrder for every application I've ever needed apparel for. 1923 still uses them, 229 & 4124 use them, Clarkson's A Capella group used them, even Brunswick Eruption's volunteer shirts are from them.

They are nothing short of amazing. They also will work with you to optimize your artwork, and send you .psd and .jpg copies of everything when they're done!

If you use them, tell Mike I sent you- he loves FIRST teams now.
