Sorry, there's no hats on the horizon in my brain.

TTC was the enabler for the Ts. He made decals too?

YB spearheaded the decals. By the time I factor in materials, time, gas, inventory, space, shipping, postage … ummm, I get the promotional aspect but none of that was in my head when I started QJ.

Shortly after I posted I got an email essentially saying extra art charge this is more difficult than we thought when you were here. I don't blame 'em one bit for a tiny little job and have since changed the file to what I expect will work for them…. We'll see.

But there's the rub. We all have our little areas of expertise yet knowledge is transferrable. Good enough sometimes is and we all know what we're good at.

I remember years ago some asked about T-shirt colors other than white and one for wicking T's instead of cotton. These days, I'm still happy to provide the best artwork I can to anyone who asks in the hope they will pay it forward.

So, if anyone wants to clear a two klick path……..

db,

I would take 2 sets, one black and if possible the other in gold - they would go well on my Bell Northwind 17 in Black Gold layup.  The black ones would go on my recently acquired Merling II in kevlar.

Actually, gold sounds like a really good idea to me. I wish you'd have said something sooner.

They were suppose to be done Friday. I called Monday. They said they'd call when I could be pick 'em up on Tuesday. I'll call in the morning. Maybe I can add a few gold.

I asked about the gold. They have a metallic gold for triple the price. I couldn't justify pulling the trigger on that. If there's interest in $44.00 sets of gold, ummm, maybe next time.

When might next time be? When either the black or white I'm picking up today are gone.

Yikes! The price of gold really has gone up!  Thanks for checking db.  Sorry for not responding sooner...didn't see the posts...been OFO...perhaps a set of each then.  The white will really stand out on the carbon.
