2. Marlie (X/XL Black)
3. DonM3
4. zedman
5. hungltc.imaging
6. E902717
7. dxb335d
8. Trixman (if hes happy!)
9.
10.

Yea I'll get one as long as we don't have the logo that big on the back. They got a template on their site? (being lazy, I'll go check)

ETA: Can't find a template, can you get one from 'em Kin?

Also, these guys doing them already... different font though:

nice one Paul. no template. i knocked that one up quickly. ill go down there if this is all dead set and size things up if you want? depends what size you choose i guess but the print 'screen' size wil be exatcly the same for each hoodie as im sure u know! so its just a happy medium that looks good on all sizes?

Yea, one's I've ordered before usually have an illustrator template for you to measure up your designs to (like attached). The ratio obviously stays the same for all sizes. They should have one somewhere, if not just go with your judgement

(need to find the actual font used though, would drive me mad having a rounded sans-serif if it's not actually rounded.) ... (wow. that sounded really sad)

[dxb335d]

so we all have to have the same size one then? cuz you and me Kin are diddy fellows.

Think we should put a bit of a British twist on it

Don't want to copy the yanks exactly.

what do u have in mind mate?

[trixman]

Carlos, you choose whatever size you want mate, the design just resizes in proportion.

If anyone has any suggestions I can do a mock-up, but keep in mind it'll be limited to 1 colour (the colour of the DSC icon - sunburst orange).

[zedman]

the logo's fine in whataver colour but the colour of the top i can't have black!!
Sport Grey sounds nice.........
anybody reckon a little 'www.e90post.com' might look good right at the bottom?
or do i need to get out more?

[E902717]

i think the logo is fine, but ends something else, maybe e90post somewhere?

Someone on here must be able to come up with something witty?!

[dxb335d]

zedman why no black.

[G33]

we can have something added to the front OR back logo.

if you want a print on either the arm or hood it will cost a bit more for each of us as a seperate silk screen will need to be made for it. think its somehting like £25+vat IIRC so a few quid more per person

hmm RE. the font not sure if its the 'official' font but the one i used was Arial Rounded MT Bold thought it matched up quite well?

[willhollin]

Are colour swatches available ?

yes physical swatches are available. they work off Pantone colours. i know this isnt an accurate way of doing it but in photoshop there are swatches with Pantone colours for your perusal

in terms of garment sample colours i can go down there and take some pics?

[zedman]

Well don't laugh by my mum has a wierd superstitious thing about it and made me, my dad, sister (whole family basically) promise never to wear it! So no black clothes/suits, and also (sadly) no black cars.... So if i ever buy a new BM again it'll have to be the Nachtblau individual (nearly black), and my old Audi was Lave grey - dark as you can go.

I know it sounds rediculous - but there you go!

[trixman]

Wow. How about your socks?


Kin, found a few templates which I can superimpose... but pretty pointless if they aren't the same cut and shape as the one's the company is using. Also the DSC/DTC isn't rounded so I'll find the closest one in my library, want it similar to the font in the instrument cluster.

the guys basicallly said to me the print screens they use are the size of an A3 sheet MAX. So as far as theyre concerned they just want a jpeg, pdf, PS, EPS file of the image and theyre happy does that make sense?

RE. the DTC logo/font ive never looked close enough to realise lol. Any other ideas Paul or any1 else??? heres a few attached anyway if they may help at any stage

[DonM3]

sport grey medium please

thanks G33 for trying to sort this out

[DonM3]

a little 'www.e90post.com' on the hood would look good

[trixman]

Where could we get the e90post logo from, is there someone to ask for that kinda stuff?

Also Kin, always best to have it in vector, no loss in quality whatsoever so we should supply in pdf/eps. I'll do a few tomorrow for you guys to take a vote on, just varying sizes mainly... not sure there's anything else we can put on there without making it overly fussy.

[Geoffo]

I'll have one please. XL/XXL. I'm not fat,I like room to move !!

[marlie]

Any updates Kin/trixman?
