We should design a T shirt for DrummerWorld .Com

[John Sharples]

We should design a T Shirt for “DrummerWorld .com” Post your suggestions and ideas and maybe we can get Bernard to make up the best one, so we could wear them proudly, I’d buy one. Make good Christmas presents too. My Idea would be
“Follow Me, To DrummerWorld .com I will BEAT You There”

[GRUNTERSDAD]

There is one. Was designed by Bernhard some time ago but sales were slow.
I think it has been shelved for the time being.

[John Sharples]

Maybe we can get him to try it a again I'll buy one.

[maddrummr]

There was a whole web site full of stuff but i don't think anyone was buying...I did pick up a "supporting member" polo before they stopped selling them...I'm glad I did, its a nice shirt.

[caddywumpus]

We could put my avatar on the front with "Caddywumpus" in huge letters, and "Drummerworld" in small letters beneath. It would sell like hotcakes!

[doorstilend]

yeah no doubt about it i ll buy one i saw some members wearing those and they looked really nice to me

[GRUNTERSDAD]

Or my avatar, that the Tampa Bay Buc cheerleaders support Drummerworld.

Well...I d just LOVE to wear that shirt, lol... I mean hey!, Put all of G.D.'s avatars on the back and C-Wump's big pink Muppets on the front... I d wear it in a heartbeat! YEAH!!!(Im serious, btw)

Otherwise its a damn good idea, just a simple T-shirt with a tasteful DW logo on it. I d buy one.


And I d wear it too! =D

[oops]

If it was tasteful I'd buy one straight off. (maybe a whole heap, one for every day of the week)

[trkdrmr]

My local mall has a shop called "T.S. Guy". Customers can give them a design, and they will print it.

[John Sharples]

Sounds like there is some, interest. So what do you say we get everyone together and get this, done! Someone find Bernard and tell him his friends want to help the Site raise some money. We want T-Shirts for Christmas. We will need him, to get this to go forward. I’m adding one to my Christmas List today.

here's a design I did in 3 mins:

Also, I'm a graphic designer....so if you need any help with the visualization, I can help.

Maybe it should say: We work. We play. Then, we waste all of our free time on DRUMMERWORLD.com

hahaha very good !! I think it would make a great slogan "When were NOT playing drums we are being lazy and sitting at our computers on, DRUMMERWORLD.com" lol..

[Drummertist]

"I don't play drums...I just act like I do on DRUMMERWORLD.com"

[ermghoti]

DrummerWorld.com...

Keep the ideas coming Christmas is coming FAST

very nice logo, would immediately buy new drummerworld shirt

i liked this one maybe bernhand can share any thoughts?

Haha that's gotta be the best one yet, It would catch peoples eye!! lol and it tells the world that this is the best forum !!

[Drummertist]

Lets try to keep this serious so that Bernhard will take it seriously.

Also, I think it should be about more than just the forum. This site has everything such as artists bios, clinics, news, etc. That's why they call it "Drummerworld" and not "DrummerForum"
I'll work up some designs just for fun to see peoples tastes.

Who cares!
haha,
Let's have Gruntersdad's avatars be on the drummerworld shirts.

[trkdrmr]

I think like that idea!

[805Drummer]

Please, no generic drum slogans, like "got drums?" or "I'd hit that." For example, this shirt is incredibly stupid and offensive to drummers (I may be taking it too seriously): http://t-shirts.cafepress.com/item/me-play-drums-me-hit-things-kids-tshirt/32101924
We gotta have a shirt that's professional-looking, yet still fun, with a witty slogan. I have a few ideas, that I'll mention later. But Berhnard, if you're reading this, keep in mind that if you sell them on Cafepress, one, you get high quality tees, but two, most importantly, if no one buys them (which won't be true), you aren't losing any money...you just aren't making money. Plus, you get a much wider audience, which equals more sales, obviously.
Design-wise, one of my ideas is a stylistic rendering of a fairly medium-sized kit, where each drum and cymbal is shaded in a different color of the rainbow. And then under it,a ribbon of red (or white/black, depending on the color of the shirt itself) appears to wrap around the bottom right of the drums, with a more stylized version of the Drummerworld logo.
Yes, I know it's hard to picture, but I think I might make some prototypes in my graphics software. I used to be insane at making graphics with Paint Shop Pro 9, but I lost interest, and now I use a Mac.
So...what do you think?

EDIT: Something like this, only not with my drum set.

Personally, I'm digging Drummertist's design.

Maybe without the final line below the Drummerworld logo, but still. Good design.

I agree. My post was just throwing togeather two elements you see every day in response to another post. Drummertists is a real design.

[LTNINGFan]

Grunter, I was just thinking the same thing as I was reading this thread :)

[Drummertist]

Try this one on for size.

[Drummertist]

i meant to do it in cmyk. Here we go.

That's sweet mannn .

[Big_Philly]

Here's my take. Just a draft, a sloppy drummerworld logo etc. but you get the idea. I have a higher (A4 size) resolution available and will be happy to donate this design to Drummerworld.

I am liking this one only without the "...we are here" sounds a bit like aliens! Other than that the rest is solid. I know I would buy a few

[Ironcobra]

If anyone wants a very high resolution (2953x979) Drummerworld logo, here it is, I saved it from back when Bernhard posted it.

You guy’s are getting really creative now, lets keep them coming. I hope Bernard joins in soon!

[Drummertist]

Here's one more....with a front and back

[GRUNTERSDAD]

Someone front Bernhard the money for the intial artwork and setup fees and the first run of shirts and I'm sure he will go along.

[John Sharples]

I can get the art work set up ready to print if we pick a design. who's next.

[LeeLovesSabian]

A cool idea would be to custom one with your avatar's on the back in bold.
Then I would buy one.

We will need color matches for the Design we agree on I like this one. Nice job Drummertist

I REALLY like that one. But you'd have to make it bigger, while keeping the edges smooth.

Well, if we do it on Cafepress, there is no setup fee at all.

Are you aware of how geeky/costly/infeasible that idea is?

[TheGroceryman]

I'm ALLL FOR THS IDEA!!! that one was sick!!! i would buy that in a second.

[Ironcobra]

Can we make a t-shirt design sticky? Then vote on a design?

[Ironcobra]

This was really rough, but it was just to throw down some ideas. I'm trying to make you money here Bernhard!

i d buy that one drummertist you got great designs man

[Bernhard]

I appreciate your efforts and i see nice designs.

However - and having learned from the last attempt two years ago:

Everybody says, they buy a shirt, but very few do so really.

So i will create a simple shirt with logo and put it up - but not before christmas.

Bernhard
