Guys, this is the link to the shirt art for running out on Iron-on paper. www.magazinepublisher.com/models/ormlogos.pdfI have them on the page "3 up" meaning you get three logos in case you mess one up or have three shirts. They are also make at 100% meaning that you can print them with no reduction (reduce to fit). Post pix of you wearing them! John

Thanks John, here's what I did so far...I think the web addy should be there also, so I did it in Wordpad, and made a separate transfer. Would turn out better if it were all incorporated into one logo. Probably just me being computer illiterate, but I couldn't find a way to increase the logo size in your PDF...I think the logo on the back of the shirt should be a full page. Let me know what you guys think about colors too, they make the transfer paper for light & dark fabrics. I like orange myself, but wasn't sure if this paper (made for light colored fabrics) would work with orange, so I went with yellow. This is just a $3.99 shirt from Hobby Lobby, got the transfer paper (7 sheets) for $5.39 (with 40% off coupon) so it's pretty cheap. The paper for darker colors is almost twice as much, but would still be reasonable. This was for experiment only, I think better shirts should be used also.

Jeff, I am betting you have a Windows machine (cause on a Mac it is easy). I find whenever I print on my wife's machine the default for printing is "squeeze" the page to fit on the paper and it is difficult to find where to change that. What you will need to try to find when you print is go through the settings and make it printing sideways and at about 300%. Yes, it will cut off the top and bottom logo but the center one will be big. Heck, I will just make another single logo that is full page for you Windows guys. And I will add the web address to the front logos. John

Yep, only Windows here I messed around with it again, just can't seem to find a way to blow up the logo to print...It'll zoom in & make it as large as I like to view, but only prints the size you made it, but again, probably just me... Everyone interested in attending the '11 NNL East, please vote in the style & color polls ;D

Thanks John they look great now to get off my butt and make a shirt or three Willie X2 John! I'll gladly make the shirts if you guys want...I'm already set up. Let me wash up my "experimental" yellow one & see how the transfer & cheap shirt holds up. They can range from $5 for one like this, or whatever the better quality shirts cost ( I would assume less than $10 for a Haynes "beefy T" or equivalent). Looks like the dark colors are winning the war, really doesn't matter to me, just need to know which style of logo, size, & if we all wear the same color or not!

Here's the black T-shirt experiment...with the white background, I think the square logo MUST be used. If not, the odd-shaped silhouette of the other logo would stick out like a sore thumb! I actually prefer the look of the clear background on a lighter colored shirt, but let me know what you all think... I tried the clear background logo on the front of the black shirt, wasn't worth a pic as it hardly shows up

Hey Jeff. I'm at an impass here. I like the shape of the logo on the yellow T, but I like the black shirt better than yellow. If the logo on the yellow shirt was on a white background, would the white background be rectangular or follow the logo lettering?

Hey, Jeff. I have to agree, the white outline around the non-square logo would look kinda strange. But wonder if there is some way to make the it look right. Maybe I should try some off road shapes, like maybe a mountain silhouette. I will mess around with that idea Monday at lunch.
I anyone has any other silhouette ideas I should try, let me know. J

The white background can be any shape I cut it to...like John said, a mountain or something, maybe with a Jeep climbing up the side ;D I'll play around with a shape(s).
