Got bored today:

the colors!

2nd Variation:

the colors2:

I like the second version. I also like it as a 4 way. A 6 way would be even better. Then make the car a contrasting color. Have it be like an Andy Warhol painting.

i would give that idea a try, but if this design is to become a t-shirt it would be more cost efficient to just go w/ one t-shirt color and one print color. BUT i really like your suggestion. Anything else i could do to improve this design?

So, are you making cool shirts for the club or bank?

Have to say I think it would look better without the text "Porsche" leaving just 914.

Both , but im going for a B.A. in Graphic Designs and this is my start of a portfolio. Also, these shirts allow us, 914 owners, to boast our love and dedication to these little cars

What about that melt your eyes bright safty green/yellow with hot pink design? It stands out in a crowd. I had one like that a long time ago for another car club I was in it was easy to find each other at races and events.

The only problem with large areas like this on a t-shirt is they become large sweat patches. Not comfortable on a warm day.

I like this design. White on a black shirt would be my suggestion.

BTW, I really like the feel of the shirts you used last time. Very soft & comfortable.

well this is true, but i've had shirts like this that seem to "breathe" at this spot though...Maybe my t-shirts are actually alien life-forms disguised as shirts, but I think it all depends on the silkscreening used??

I could be wrong, and yes it is very uncomfortable when ya wear a shirt and it sweats under the logo.

Same here! i really liked the material my Uncle chose to use, but i dont think it was 100% cotton, which is what i requested O wells

Hey, do you have a larger "Got Jackstands" image that I can print out? I love it.

how big do ya need it? i wanted to see if i could make an actual size sign printed onto some thick gauged sheet metal, but if someone does do this they have my permission. Just as long as i get one free in return for using my design

If I may add an alternative printing suggestion.

What about embroidery? I have a friend that can do any of the t-shirt designs that I have viewed on 914club in ebroidery...

If there is enought interest, I can call him for pricing.
