Really good ideas.

I like Altimot's variation. Does anyone have any concept of how much it would cost? To get it screenprinted and how much it would be to have our names on there?

thanks.  I don't know what it is going to cost though. first i think we need to figure out how many people are going to get them. And decide how we are going to do things from there.

Maybe we wait a little while, see if anyone else has any ideas or variations on what to put on the shirt, then we set up a poll to select an official logo and we go from there. Thats a first step.

When we decide to pursue these ideas, I know of a screenprinting place on garden of the gods road in the springs.  It's called Bravo Screenprinting and they are at 4602 Northpark Dr. Garden of the Gods and I-25.  I'm not sure what they're pricing is but i've heard that they do pretty good work.  I don't have a lot of time this week because of finals, but if any of you want to get more info their number is (719) 475-7121.  BTW I think I like the words on front, pic on back idea.  If we could do personalization, that would be awesome. :)

yea this is a good start, i think it just needs a little more work and planning until we take the step to get them made. we should come up with final choices and vote like brandon said. ive been really busy with finals but i am on break in a couple days and then it is time to have pretty much one thing on my mind, parkour.

Here's one website that might work:  http://www.spreadshirt.com/  Basically, they let you completely customize a shirt, both the fabric color as well as the logo color(s). They can even do logos in metallic silver or gold, which could look really cool. They have T-shirts, hoodies, jackets, and tons of other stuff too. I'm not sure what pricing would be like (it depends on the colors and stuff), but it could be worth checking into.

Yeah bro, I posted that on our last site ;) No worries though, I know how it is.  I like their site, it's got a whole lot of options and all, and you can go much further than just t-shirts ( I think we could order a copk thong from there  :) ::))  But yeah, the only reason I don't like sites like that is that they're usually more expensive than neccesary, shipping is usually a drag too.

alright guys, heres the deal. personally i think this license plate design is ok but we could do better. i think the main reason i say this is because it looks like a rectangle sticker we will put on there. it doesnt really have any shape or originality in my opinion. I hope you dont take this the wrong way quazar, its better than anything I can do and has been the best copk has come up with so far.

If you think the license plate design is good enough then you can just reply and say that. If you think we could do better keep reading.

I have been in contact with gameyy, the guy who has done all the art for APK. He is als a very good traceur and does a lot of t shirt design. check out his site at www.canvasunlimited.cjb.net. He has some really amazing stuff! He is totally willing to help us with a new and original design. We can even give him guidelines such as a theme, colors, slogans, whatever and he will try to base his design off that. He said he would give us a pk community rate of $25 an hour and a really good t shirt usually takes him around 3 hrs. So we would all have to pitch in a little bit extra to get this done but frankly, his work is awesome and I think it would be worth it!

So again, I want to hear everyone's opinion on this. Hopefully nobody takes this the wrong way, I would just like these shirts to be as good as possible!

Sounds good, but are you sure that using a designer who has done all the art for APK as well as commisions for other traceurs wouldn't give us the unoriginal commonly used type of parkour logo we've been trying so hard to avoid?

Can we trust him to give us something original?

I think your right there Demon. After looking at his site and at what he has done for U_F and USA Parkour, I think we should try him out. Im in for pitching in some money to give it a try. I think if we tell him our concerns that we want it be original and pertainent to just Colorado and COPK using some of our previous ideas about the mountains and Denver skyline, I think he will produce something that we will really like.

It's worth a try  I guess, I mean if we all pitch in like 2 bucks it should be more than enough.  We could probably just pay at the next big CO jam.

ok guys, after talking with some of you and seeing your posts on here, i have gone ahead and told gameyy we are ready to work with him. the guy does professional quality work and we are lucky to get his services for only $25 an hour. he said it typically takes him 3-5 hrs for a good t shirt. with the current size of the COPK scene, we can easily cover this with a small contribtion from everyone who wants a finished shirt.

ok, now down to how all this will work. gameyy has set up a site where we can give him a bunch of ideas for the design.

http://www.livejournal.com/community/openboard/

so if you have any good ideas, make sure to go there and post them up! dont expect him to use all of our ideas, but you surely wont see your ideas in the final product if you dont post them!
