OK, let's test the pocket - I have made it square and more 'pocket-shaped'

And the new 'back' design - with the logo removed and roundels filling in the space:

OK, I have just been in the design side and you can have a pocket design even if there is no actual pocket on the shirt.

It's $3 more for front and back printing btw, so not too horrible...

Getting closer Clave....

How tough would it be to add an aircraft side profile under/over the front pocket logo???

Also, I like the idea of the back logo still having the ww2aircraft.net banner in the middle of it.... Either comin or going, the sites addy is visible....

And one thing I just noticed Clave, and it could be a biggie, or not, is that the sites address is ww2aircraft.net not wwIIaircraft.net...

My preference would be to have the image that is on post #186 of this thread on the back of the shirt.

Since you already have a ton of airplane profiles designed, could you use a profile of the buyers choice on the front "pocket" with ww2aircraft.net below it? Or is that too much work per order?

I just recd and email announcing my shirts have been shipped. Looks like I will be able to wear one at the airshow on the 31st. With all of the changes, I will be wearing the prototype. What plane for the offical shirt photo? I guess the Wildcat is out of the question.

Right, I have thought and thought, and hopefully come up with something:

I propose 4 main types (with variations later) See attached drawings

1: Circle Front/No Back

2: Oblong Front/No Back

3: Data Plate Front/Circle Back

4: Pocket Front/Circle Back

The Data Plate and Pocket fronts I have shown with a Spitfire for now, but I'm prepared to do a number of already drawn aircraft, so I'll take requests/suggestions etc.

I have change WWII to WW2 as discussed, and also the colour is better I think, so let's see how this works...

Now thats what Im talkin about Clave....

Now, heres where I think improvement can be made:

The front shots that have the name and profile, change the ww2aircraft.net to a smaller size and make it just one line as opposed to the 3 u have currently.... Doesnt need to be that large if the back has the large emblem on it....

Would also put the smaller text under the profile and slightly closer to the bottom of the plane....

And if possible, remove the green box from the fronts and just have the text, possibly black or something that will show up on a white shirt.... I wouldnt get a white one and the greenish colored box would not look right with a off colored shirt I think....

Well crud. I just got both my shirts I ordered and they have the wrong website on them. Crap crap crap.

I love the new design of the lower left pic on #221 if its on the back and if Les' idea on #222 is on the front pocket.

Sorry about that, I never realised that this would go on for so long
