scs787 Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 http://teespring.com/MOTM Just put this bad boy together and can use some of your guys help getting them printed. I need to sell 20 before they can be printed! Let me know if you buy one so I can thank you!! Gonna try to get one of those 3 guys to tweet out the address so we can make this happen. (kinda bummed I couldn't get the whites out between Alshons arms but I still think it looks pretty sweet.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madlithuanian Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 I'd like to help, but I have to admit I just don't like the color. Orange makes me look like a pumpkin... I need dark colors to hide my girth! Also, if you need the Alshon image corrected, PM me and I can photoshop it up if you send me the image. Or you could just post the image on this site and I'll copy it and work on it from there. http://teespring.com/MOTM Just put this bad boy together and can use some of your guys help getting them printed.

Ya, I actually said on soxtalk that if i get a few people who don't like the orange I'd make another one in a different color. I actually vectorized the whole thing first and those spots between Alshons arms weren't there, the problem is with teespring. I had the whole background transparent in PS but when you upload it there's still a white background that you have to click on spots to make it transparent. I spent a good 30-40 minutes just on those 2 spots and for whatever reason they wouldn't go away. I do appreciate the offer to help though. Thanks!

scs787 Posted November 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 can you upload the PS document keeping your clipping paths? to teespring?? ya, I think thats what I did, I had the background clipped out in every picture and saved it with a transparent background. It's my first time using the site but I've messed around with PS for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BearFan2000 Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 Just a side note what about licensing? If your producing a shirt with copyright or trademarked images/logos with the intent to sell, you could get in hot water with the NFL, NFLPA, and Bears. The Bears logos/uniforms, and even the players themselves could be off limits without licensing. I work for a company that does vehicle wraps and someone wanted a colt's wrap for their RV and we had to secure licensing for the use any images or logos or players on the colts team in the design. Just something to be careful about. Would hate to see you or anyone involved get in trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just something to be careful about. Would hate to see you or anyone involved get in trouble. Ya, I just looked into it and the language I'm seeing is rather vague, or I'm just not understanding it. That said, it is possible to use NFL trademarks, it just may be impractical if you want to do a small amount of products. The NFL also grants permission to use individual team names/logos. Check out the NFL’s licensing website nfl.biz . It seems like they want to deal with larger manufacturers and distributors. You need to guarantee at least a $100,000/year royalty to the NFL, and have at least a 6M/12M liability policy to protect the NFL against lawsuits arising from your products. You will also have to prove to them that you have the financial resources to meet these requirements. They also review your products to insure that it does not have a negative impact on the NFL’s image. i.e. no cheep products or pornographic products. Although they do not state this on their website/application, they probably will not let you produce a product that is already being produces as the resulting price competition would reduce the value of an NFL license. If you have a unique product that is not NFL branded, you might want to run it by their new products department before you fill out the application. New Products Division, NFL Properties LLC, 345 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10154 newproducts@NFL.com I think I'll cover my ass, take it down and email that address at the end just to make sure. I've got a pretty sweet new design that's flawless, and looks good on the Navy blue.....I'll post it in a little bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
