Hey, nice logo! Whoever designed it is a genius.

A FUCKING genius at that!

Right up there with Rembrandt, I'd say.

Right up there with Rembrandt, I'd say.

And suppositories, I'd say. Way way up there.

[NQ6U]

And suppositories, I'd say. Way way up there.

Yeah, his head is at least that far up.

[WØTKX]

Cool. Maybe. When's the trippy fractal or tie dye version coming out? :mrgreen:

[W4GPL]

Black option added.

[Bubba]

I’m waiting for the thong to come out.

[K7SGJ]

I’m waiting for the thong to come out, or come off.

There, fixed it for you. :stickpoke:

[NQ6U]

Judging by the pix of Islanders in Chris's thread, I do not believe a IOMH thong would be beneficial to society as a whole.

Not even as a half, for that matter.

Thats subjective.

[ad4mg]

Very cool! Yes, I'll be ordering a few in the extra fat man size...

[Bubba]

Maybe if a tank top is in the works. I would definitely buy many. It’s so freaking hot on Guam even T shirts are too hot.

No, you wouldn't. Trust me on this.

See, Bubba? I told you you didn't want to see it.

[W5BRM]

In all seriousness about size. Can you offer any larger sizes? I am a big feller so a 4X would suffice. a 2X would look like a beach half T on me....lol

[W4GPL]

Nah, that's all they have.. sorry.

[W5BRM]

Ah Bummer.

[W4GPL]

Actually..

I just checked with another vendor. If I can get 20+ orders, I can do 4X shirts for a +$4 upcharge and keep the rest of the pricing the same.

[NA4BH]

Hey, nice logo! Whoever designed it is a genius.

[ad4mg]

I ordered my Ham Island T-shirts, did you? I can't think of a better attire in which to attend ham festicles. Think of the butt-hurt and chaos you could create!

You're going to regret not owning a piece of ham radio history when they're gone. Operators are standing by... :-D

I heard you were all out.. True ?

[N8YX]

'DSG and I will have a matching set. They'll work better than the old standby Drake shirts which I often wear to Dayton. :yes:

[WX7P]

I bought one also.

[W5BRM]

I'll buy one if i can get one that fits. 2x aint gonna work. I haven't seen anyone else ask though, so i guess that wont happen.

[Bubba]

You could but 2, then take them to a tailor and have it fitted..

[W4GPL]

I'll buy one if i can get one that fits. 2x aint gonna work. I haven't seen anyone else ask though, so i guess that wont happen.Yeah, I said I can do up to 4x..

[W5BRM]

Yeah, I said I can do up to 4x..


Ah ok i misread your original reply. Thought you meant you could do 4x if you had 20 4x orders... sorry my bad. I should be able to get one this friday!

[W4GPL]

I was going to put the order in on Tuesday... I need at least a commitment that you'll buy it by then, but you can wait on the payment if you need to... :) Thanks!

[W5BRM]

Just paid for my shirt! Cant wait to get it. Also made a bit of a donation to the site as well!

Is it too late to order ?

[W4GPL]

Depends on what size/color you want, I got a few extra...

[KJ3N]

Depends on what size/color you want, I got a few extra...

One of each in M or L?

[kb2crk]

What sizes do you have left

[W4GPL]

I have 4 extra.. 2 black XL and 2 black XXL..

[PA5COR]

What would 1 XXL do to send over here?

[KJ3N]

I have 4 extra.. 2 black XL and 2 black XXL..

I could use those as tents, especially the XXL.

[W4GPL]

What would 1 XXL do to send over here?Nothing special, I suspect.. how much more is regular postage to send something over there?

[PA5COR]

I have no clue, just the shipping paid to RF parts for their 3-500ZG tube and EQplus and some gunparts to go on.
Name a price and i'll put it up ;) if it is within reason




Nothing special, I suspect.. how much more is regular postage to send something over there?

[W4GPL]

Looks like it's $12.75 to ship a large envelope regular mail to .nl -- does that seem fair/right?

[K7SGJ]

I could use those as tents, especially the XXL.

Must be where the expression "tents up" came from, eh?

[PA5COR]

Done, i'll pop the money over now.

[ka6lyd]

Hey guys i would love to get some t-shirts and support you but i need 3X black, what can you do to help me? thank you, Mark ka6lyd@me.com

[W4GPL]

@KA6LYD - not this time around, sorry... I'm going to do another batch in a couple months, I'll keep you posted.

@Everyone else -- Still waiting on the shirts to be printed. Expect them 3 to 4 days after I have them in my hands.. I'll hope I'll see them by early next week. I'll keep you posted when they ship. Thanks!

I'll try to get some pictures up as soon as they arrive. :) Planning a trip to Mt. Rushmore next weekend, maybe I can put HamIsland along side the Presidents.

PS - I'm going to ship them without requiring a signature, if you need other provisions, let me know.

[PA5COR]

No problem, no haste i'll see mine when it arrives ;)


Cheers.

[NA4BH]

How do I pay for it?

[K7SGJ]

How do I pay for it?

Diamonds or gold bullion.

[NA4BH]

Diamonds or gold bullion.

All I got is the beef variety of said bullion.

[K7SGJ]

Sounds like a lot of bull-ion.

[NA4BH]

That sounds souper.

[K7SGJ]

That sounds souper.

Still sounds like a crock, but don't stew about it.

[NA4BH]

Oh, I'm not beefing about it. You seem to be living in a 24 carrot world, that is my stock answer. Peas understand what I'm sayin' broth. Don't ladle me like that.

[K7SGJ]

I didn't mean to bowl you over. Usually, chatting with you is gravy, but not lately. Did you get chili on your trip to Minestrone?

[NA4BH]

...............And the horehound you rode in on

[W4GPL]

I should have them soon! :) Taking longer than was promised, my apologies... but they're coming.

[KC2UGV]

No worries mate :)

[NQ6U]

Nope, no worries. The things look like they were designed by a chimp with a learning disability anyhow.

Now, what are you going to do when someone does "give you a banana"? As they say, be careful what you wish for.

[W4GPL]

So.. this has turned into an major disaster! I've had to return the shirts twice now due to really sloppy printing.

I'm going to use a local print shop, which increases my cost a bit, but I think it'll be worth it as I can see the end result before they print all of them. This means a bit more of a delay..

I'm still moving forward, but anyone who wants a refund can get one, but they're coming!.. eventually. Sorry for the inconvenience.

My poor wife has had to go topless for over a month now.

[PA5COR]

Meh, not your fault, they come when they come...

[KC2UGV]

No worries.

[N8YX]

No worries.

Ditto.

Dayton ain't til next year any way... ;)

[K7SGJ]

Actually, take all the time in the world, I kinda like having the xyl run around topless; I don't need to look at the thermometer anymore.

[PA5COR]

Point(s) taken ;)

It's been awhile since I've been on one.

[W5BRM]

Me too. The wife kinda frowns on it when i ask if i can date the neighbor gals, or the news gals on tv, or the hot tv actresses

Yeah, they are rather narrow minded about that.

[NQ6U]

It's been awhile since I've been on one.

It's hard for us whinny, learning-challenged chimp bitches to find a date. Women object to all the banana peels, for one thing.

I'm sure that would work right up until you fling poop at the spectators. That really turns them off.

Just the obligatory bump. Checkin on progress. Any word on dates?Dates? Sure. My neighbor's tree had a bunch of them this year, but I don't know if they have any left. They may have some in the freezer.

[W4GPL]

Got the call yesterday telling me my order is ready for pickup. Can't get there today, but I'll do it Saturday and spend the rest of the weekend getting them in the mail. Thanks for everyone's patience!

[N8YX]

Excellent - we can't wait for Dayton this coming year. :yes:

[NQ6U]

There's a lot of excitement among the chimps in Special Ed over this—one of their own makes good!

Just a note, still haven't received mine. Did they get mailed?

[PA5COR]

I thot it was the snail mail that did it ;)

[W4GPL]

Hey gang, as I mentioned to Janet late night... -- sorry, I didn't see N2NKW's post until she mentioned it, I haven't been on the forum much the last couple of weeks.

Frankly, I'm really sorry I ever embarked on this whole thing but I take full responsibility for the delays. I thought it'd be neat, but it's turned into a rather huge cluster... Long story short, the way the image was produced, it's causing it to suck when printed on a t-shirt, even though it's a high res RGB image. I don't proclaim to be a graphics expert, but there's something about it that was causing us issues. I've worked with a local vendor to get it resolved, but they haven't turned out to be any more favorable than Cafepress. I'm a bit of a perfectionist and I've admittedly been really sour on how these shirts continue to come out.

Long story short, tshirts are coming -- someway, somehow.. it's not a financial thing, and continue to offer refunds to anyone who wants one.. however, I have not given up on this endeavor.

My apologies for the continues delays. I'll keep everyone updated more regularly.

[PA5COR]

X Mas in one month, just sayin';)

[W4GPL]

Several months in the making, but they're all finally here!

Let me know if you order another round of 'em.

Now I have a reason to attend the computer/junkyard/porn/amateur radio/gun show here in richmond in February. I'll be doubly excited if I can piss off a few of the qrz idiots!

[N8YX]

I eagerly look forward to getting ours in the mail. :yes:

[PA5COR]

Yep, make piccie wearing it and put it in the QRZ sticker thread, stick it to them ;) you have stickers, we have T shirts......watch them explode...

[W4GPL]

Let me know if you order another round of 'em.Yeah, I don't see that happening. :) This was an ordeal.. and it's still not over.

[W7XF]

Jeff...is there a local (Denver) supplier of custom tees that caters to smaller orders?

[WØTKX]

A more important question...

Is the artwork available from the Pope in Adobe Illustrator EPS format?

Probably. :wiggle:

[NQ6U]

A more important question...

Yep. I wouldn't recommend EPS—it's a crappy, troublesome format and a native .ai file is better—but if that's what you need, I can supply it.

[WØTKX]

Yes please.

Adobe Illustrator EPS with all text converted to curves (or outlines) with layers maintained.

That would be great! ;)

Not trying to steal anybody's "thunder", but this place will do single shirts. I uploaded the .EPS from Carlo.

The artwork might need a tweak for the knob and the URL with dark colors. $25 for a single shirt.

[W4GPL]

Seems someone had an unpaid balance on his local pick n' ship store account.. :whistle: Should be on their way now. Sorry guys! For what it's worth, they tried to contact me several times but I ignored the unknown number on my phone. Sometimes an unknown number isn't always a solicitor, who knew?

[PA5COR]

So, the pony express is on its way with the booty? ;) hope the pony can swim....

[PA5COR]

Looks like the pony couldn't swim, no joy here.

[W5BRM]

I'm beginning to believe that Secret Squirrel has a mole in the delivery system & has arranged for everything to be donated to orphans in Zimbabwe, along with the "championship" shirts & hats that are pre-printed in the name of the losing team.

...still waiting on ours...

[W5BRM]

Guess these are a write off. :(

As of 4 PM EDT Today: Nada

I guess we now know where Cliff Clavin works, following his retirement from the Boston area USPS.

SOMEONE should have gotten their shirt by now.

That no one has reported as such implies that there is a problem. And the first place to start asking questions is at the store that shipped them.

I'm really hoping at this point that someone at that shipper's didn't get the word that the bill was paid, and that all of the packages are still sitting somewhere.

Otherwise, a trace needs to be started... and the shipper is the one to start that trace.

At this point, the shirt itself? Fuggedaboudit. I'd just like to know what happened.

Maybe you'll get lucky and get some Island Undies.

[W3WN]

Maybe you'll get lucky and get some Island Undies.Nah. I'm never that lucky.

I think this was a good intention gone horribly wrong, and I'm sure everyone is irritated that things went so bad on something that should have been so simple. Again, at this point, I'm no longer concerned WRT whether or not it ever makes an appearance (that means, don't bother reordering), I'd just like to know what happened.

[W5BRM]

Agreed. Id like to know as well. The silence is a bit disconcerting.

[W5BRM]

Anyone heard from W4GPL? No posts since he spoke of the unpaid shipping balance on 2.24

[PA5COR]

Nope, think he is playing detective himself to find out what happened...

[W3WN]

Ah, Jeff? Any news? Anything at all? Bueller?

[PA5COR]

Maybe he has an extended party from the money with some nekkid wimmen ;)

K, nekkid men then ;)

This is Lawrence. This is Lawrence, Kansas. Is anybody there? Anybody at all?

[PA5COR]

Would be nice to know what is going on now......my beard is growing fast..

[W5BRM]

8.5 months. And counting... :sigh:

The link I sent is a way to produce them in small quantities.

Personally, I didn't order one, but maybe I should...

[PA5COR]

I ordered and paid for one, but I think I have the same chance as an ice cube in hell to get it...

All In all I spend 100 dollars supporting the forum last year, saying I'm a bit disappointed is an real understatement.

[W5BRM]

My contributions werent quite that much but I wont stop supporting. I just wont support through W4GPL again... That is for certain

[W3WN]

Ah, Jeff? Jeff? You around at all? Jeff? Bueller? Bueller?(sounds of Crickets chirping... who actually uses Cricket for cell service these days anyway?)

[W3WN]

Ah, Jeff? Jeff? You around at all? Jeff? Bueller? Bueller?Anyone know if Jeff is still alive?

[PA5COR]

Dunno, not seen him around lately, seems he ran...

[WØTKX]

I have my doubts that he ran. He hangs around in other places, but I have seen no activity for a while.

It's not the first time. :dunno:

[PA5COR]

Let's not beat around the bush.

Start thread selling T shirts.
Getting several orders in paid and come up with lots of excuses, then disappear of the board.
Looks like a runner to me.
Listen, I don't mind spending money here on the board, or if he has troubles try to help out even I'm not rich.
I hate it when I get kept pulled around by the nose by excuses and then hear nothing for the last months... no explanation, nothing.
If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck....

[W5BRM]

Sorry just had a bad day and took it out on the keyboard. Apologies if anyone was offended.

Look man... he didn't do it on purpose, as he explained long ago. I also sent a link for an alternative method.

Jeff has had major challenges with employment (too much work) and scary health issues in the past.

I'm gonna give him the benefit of the doubt, and duck outta here because the of the stench of flinging shit.

:soapbox:

I agree. I just chalked it up to lesson learned. I bear no ill will, and will continue to do what I can to help support the site. But then, I'm an old bastid and pretty well set in my ways.

No worries. Everybody has a shit day now and again. Just don't let it happen again, or you may wind up with a Papal visit, including his Nunnery harem.

Why the hell would PAYPAL visit him?

For reasons that I cannot control right now, change my order from XL to L. if this keeps up, maybe medium.

If you do get to medium, you should get two for the same price as the XL. About the same amount of materiel.

Anyone know if Jeff is still alive?I guess he's too mortified to return?

[KC2UGV]

I guess he's too mortified to return?

Apparently, he's been traveling a quite a bit for work. I've seen him in 3 different cities, 5 days (Via checkins on social media) after a 3 month or so hiatus (I was going to call him). So, I can only assume he's been quite busy with work.

I'll ping him again on FB.

[WØTKX]

He recently posted on FB, I don't visit the IRC channel often.

[W3WN]

Ah, Jeff? Jeff? You around at all? Jeff? Bueller? Bueller?It's been quite some time since our last update.

Jeff? Are you still out there?

You can talk to us. All can be forgiven, or at least worked out, but you do have to talk to us.

Time for a bump.

--

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, I've been getting a small education the last few weeks on what a major pain in the assets it can be to place a shirt order. The boss & I ended up, amongst other things, taking care of the cast & crew shirts for Little Miss Field Day's final High School Musical.

The order is going to end up being 80 shirts -- five are 2XL & 3XL, so we don't get a quantity discount on them (they'll be $9 a shirt), but the other 75 are S - XL, so we do get the discount. $7 a shirt. Add in the cost for setting up the artwork, grand total for 80 shirts will be $650 . That's not bad, not bad at all.

...the best part is, before we got the final numbers, the Parents Committee decided to charge the same for shirts as was done last year -- $15 each. So even though the ADULTS haven't all paid for their shirts yet -- mainly the teachers running the musical -- we still have more than enough $$$ to cover the cost of printing. Remaining $$ goes into the HS Musical account.

Nah, those teachers wouldn't make the kids pay for THEIR shirts, now would they? Well, I'll make damn sure that they do pay for them -- no moola, no shirt.

[K7SGJ]

I saw this thread had a bump and thought, hot shit, the shirts are in. But nooooooooooooooooooooooo

Did they go to CQ? Maybe agents of zed intercepted them and are wearing them backwards :shifty:

OK, I almost hate to do this...

I don't know if or when we're ever going to hear from Jeff again. He still owes us an explanation at least... but never mind that for right now.

Now: I just finished packing up an order of 80 T-Shirts for Little Miss Field Day's last High School Musical. The Boss & I are co-running the parents committee, so besides running the concession stand, this got dumped in my lap as well.

Including the setup costs, the shirts came to about $9 each for S - XL, $10 each for 2XL & up. (Well, we did get a quantity discount by going over 72 shirts -- 1 case -- which cut the price a bit, but never mind that.) That included both the printing on the front (they did a nice job on the graphic) in multiple colors, and single color listing of the cast & crew names on the back.

So let me ask the group...

Do you want me to look into a shirt order? [Do NOT send me any shekels now, please!!!]

Keep in mind that there would be postage costs as well, so this is positively NOT a set price. I just want to get a feeling... no, not that kind of feeling, you have a dirty mind & keep up the good work, you know who you are... to see if it's worth it.

This is completely independent of the previous attempt, this would be me on my own.

Thoughts?

Talk to me before you do this since 1) I worked in a screen print shop and 2) I have all the original artwork. I might be able to save you some grief and be sure you get the best results possible.

Oh well, it was a thought.

Now if Jeff ever pops back in, the local printer I used for the school musical cast/crew shirts (Commonwealth Press) had a VERY reasonable cost per shirt. $650 net for 80 shirts, including the artwork fees... which comes to $8.125 per shirt (there were 5 XXL/XXXL shirts included, and those were an extra $1 each, so that should be factored in as well) with quantity discount.

Of course, he'd have to deal with some shipping charges as well. I didn't, I just drove down to their printing plant & picked them up. Neat little building. You should see the bell they have... you know, the "Ring the Bell for Service" bell. It's an actual old school bell, and boy, is it loud!

[WØTKX]

Earlier in this thread I posted a site that will do the shirts, one at a time.
Even sent the artwork from Da Pope, so it would be there already.

Underwhelming response as well.

[K7SGJ]

Why don't we all get an Island logo tattoo on our chests? It will last longer, and they don't charge for extra ink on plus sizes.
