OK, so this is the final poll for LAN Momento.

Please bear in mind that if we're getting the can openers sheepy will organise, if we're going for beer mats, Duvel will organise and GM has agreed to organise the T-Shirts.

I don't see the T-shirts being a problem but there is a minimum qty order (100) on the bottle openers.

Fair point...

I'd just go with 100 and let everyone get who wants one get one and then let those who want more divvy them out.

so long as we're not left with any that's all that matters.... If I get only get one then so be it.

If there's any left, maybe the rest of the community would like to have one...as long as the "dMw" bit out weighs the "LAN X" bit it should be easy to shift em.

or we could offer them for prizes in future tournies:flirty:

Well the unit price will hardly change between 100 and 200 I guess so reprinting some generic ones for dMw would be just as easy as overprinting this batch.

Sheepy, how far have you got with this? What size is the printed insert? do we have a deadline yet as to when they need the artwork etc?

Cheers

Unless we make a design which is classy, with something humerous on it as well as it saying 'Dead LAN Walking' or something along those lines..

Well unless someone is prepared to take up the T-Shirt design and production nothing is going to happen (see T-shirt thread) :blush2:

any idea where a good place to get a load of t-shirts done is?

I imagine there must be a shop in Islington which prints t-shirts.

What's the long road out side of Angel Tube - Upper Street? there must be something.

Most photocopying houses will have some facility to do so I imagine.

is fruit of the loom not very good then?

I've sent off a few emails to a few online t-shirt printer, will let you know what they quote...


jessops do t-shirt prints from "photos" (ie any old digital picture) but they'd be about £10 to £15 a pop (no obvious bulk deals) so 2 or 3 times the online people (though I'm waiting to find out about the associated costs so will give a revised estimate when they respond? also they might be fruit of the loom :o )

Fruit of the Loon stuff is OK, as are most brands as long as the material is heavy enough. Most custom options start with a thin material which isn't hardwearing and is prone to distort when washed. For a couple of quid more, most custom printers can supply a much heavier fabric.
