brycecNow do I get a cookie? [14:16]
up_the_ironsup_the_irons hands brycec a cookie [14:16]
brycecYay! [14:16]
up_the_ironsbtw, i know for ages some of you have asked for ARP shirts. i actually made one at customink.com; if it turns out well i'll make more. what is one's preference -- t-shirt, polo, ...? [14:17]
staticsafestaticsafe steals the cookie from brycec [14:17]
brycechoody for the datacenter? [14:17]
staticsafeup_the_irons: I like polos [14:18]
brycecme too... I do NOT like cookie thieves. [14:18]
up_the_irons+2 for polos [14:18]
mike-burnsOoo you can get umbrellas on customink.com! [14:19]
brycecI vote that anyone pre-paying 6mos+ gets a shirt free :) [14:20]
mike-burnsAnd I'll cast my vote for t-shirt here. [14:21]
brycecbrycec doesn't need more tshirts...
brycec has 40+ in daily rotation as is
(Which is great - I only do laundry every other month :)
[14:21]
mike-burnsI have two product-placement t-shirts. [14:22]
brycecI've got a couple... Most of mine are "witty saying" sorts, the kind you see on thinkgeek et al [14:23]
mike-burnsI have a tiny stack of solid color Merino wool t-shirts. [14:24]
up_the_ironsbrycec: sometimes the pre-paid on 6 months is like $50, and a shirt is $25. that's a big hit. ;) (and yeah, that might sound expensive for a shirt, but i went with the "Made in USA" ones on customink, cuz like supporting your own economy is kinda the right thing to do ;) [14:26]
brycecfair enough. It was just a thought :p I will happily buy a polo. [14:26]
up_the_irons:) [14:26]
brycecThough you could offer it "either 10% discount OR a free polo" [14:27]
up_the_ironsyeah maybe on an annual payment [14:27]
brycec(I'm not seeing a "made in the usa" "polo" on their site, just cotton tshirts) [14:29]
.... (idle for 17mn)
up_the_ironsbrycec: yeah i did it for their tshirts
polo's, not sure... they are already a bit pricey
[14:46]
brycecYou think? I did the "quick quote" for 50 Gildan Ultra-cotton Polo (seemed reasonable, albeit probably the upper end) and they're $9.79/ea
(one colour)
Not that I know your budget, but $10 cost, $15 sale price sounds reasonable
(*one colour, front side only)
qty 25 gets you $11.43/ea
[14:48]
up_the_ironsbrycec: maybe i did something wrong; i was quote like $40 each [14:51]
brycecWow! That IS rather pricy [14:51]
up_the_ironsupload a logo, pop it on the left side front, then click quote and see what it says :) [14:52]
brycecEven if I try 8 colours front, qty 50 is still $17.40/ea, nowhere near your $40.
This reminds me of fiddling with online business card printing things
"but my logo is b&w" "yes but since it's an uploaded image, you're going to be charged for full colour"
customink.com's quickquote fine print "Personalized names and numbers can be added at a cost of $4.50 per name and $2.50 per number."
Oh that's probable for jerseys, nvm
up_the_irons: I did just that, logo upload, get quote for 50 XL, $9.79ea

[14:53]
up_the_ironsi musta failed somewhere
brycec: mine was like 9 color front
brycec: even though my logo is only 2 colors... i think perhaps i gotta tweak that
[14:58]
brycecIsn't the ARP logo just two or thre colors? [14:59]
up_the_ironsyeah [14:59]
brycec*thqree
heh
[14:59]
up_the_ironsbut it suggested '9', wtf... [14:59]
brycecDo you have a vector file you could upload? Maybe there's some jpg softness it's interpreting as "more colours"?
I grabbed the image off graph.arpnetworks.com and it's suggesting just 3 colours (black, purple, light blue)
$12.20/ea with that logo (qty 50 XL)
[14:59]
up_the_ironsbrycec: that's an old logo, the new one is right on arpnetworks.com [15:02]
brycecIs it? Is it just the text "ARP NETWORKS"? [15:03]
mike-burns... with a pink unicorn jumping over it. [15:03]
up_the_ironsbrycec: yup
mike-burns: only in your dreams
[15:03]
brycecThat's just text, not a logo :P And in that case, no need to upload the image... [15:04]
***ThalinVien has joined #arpnetworks [15:07]
brycecOkay, two colours (black and turquoise, which is as close as I could come to rgb(0,146,220)) is $11.03/ea on the white polo. It looks kinda shitty though :p (Apparently what's stylish on the web does not translate to a tshirt)
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3167967/screenshot_2013-11-04_15-08-42.png
[15:08]
up_the_ironsbrycec: yeah, i understand it is just text which is why i uploaded the logo, cuz it looks better :)
brycec: i mean the "image" version of the text logo.
i have another reference to it...
standby
up_the_irons: find it here: https://ring.nlnog.net/participants/
whoops
brycec: ^^
[15:12]
brycecmmkay [15:14]
up_the_ironsi can't right-click and give you the direct image link cuz i guess it is a background [15:14]
brycecup_the_irons: On arpnetworks.com? It's just text. On the link, I right-clicked and saved just fine.
https://ring.nlnog.net/images/ring-logos/arpnetworks.png
wow, 8 colours suggested
(Note deselecting colours is not a "live" preview)
[15:15]
up_the_ironsyeah and some of the colors are pretty dumb [15:16]
brycecup_the_irons: All 9 colours, $18.36/ea https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3167967/screenshot_2013-11-04_15-16-40.png [15:17]
up_the_ironsso that's not too bad [15:18]
brycec(I might suggest adding the url beneath the logo, too) [15:18]
up_the_ironsi tried that, it doesn't look very good [15:18]
brycecheh I can understand that
$14.38 if I just upload a screengrab of the logo (only 5 colours) https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3167967/screenshot_2013-11-04_15-19-45.png
[15:18]
up_the_ironsbrycec: looks pretty good :)
brycec: wonder if there is a way for you to "send" me that "design" and then I can continue to work on it
[15:25]
brycechttps://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3167967/screenshot_2013-11-04_15-18-04.png
That's the only "unique" piece of my "design"
Also, I've already closed it :P
[15:26]
up_the_ironshah ok
tnx for the screengrab
[15:27]
brycecnp [15:27]
