Justin, don''t ever let artist do this to you! You are *third party= * in this setup, and as such have a right to DEMAND a certain format for th= e submission. Another words:

TO DO: "provide acceptable specifications and=A0expect=A0those to= be followed to the dot"

Please let me know w= hat the acceptable specks are, and I will give the files to you the way the= y are supposed to be given.

Thanks.

lol....can you tell I'm a noob at orderin= g people around?=A0 Jos, you fail as a promo leader for tainting me with yo= ur lovey dovey crap instead of showing me how to produce results as Eugene = suggests!

Here are the guidelines! dooooooooo eeeeeeeet!=A0 :D=A0

http:/= /www.spreadshirt.com/help-C1328/categoryId/7/articleId/33=A0=A0 (vector= is obviously preferable for quality reasons)

As a test to play with the functionality on the vector designs = I created a test shirt for now based on your front design.=A0 You can have = a look at http://gearwear.sprea= dshirt.com.=A0 Looks like you don't have to worry about keeping dif= ferent versions of the coloring of the logos around as Spreadshirt lets you= do that on the fly when designing.=A0 Unfortunately a person buying a shir= t cannot adjust the logo color themselves, only the color of the shirt itse= lf.=A0 And another issue is people can't change the shirt type on their= own either so it looks like I might have to make both a male and female ve= rsion of the shirts so the ladies can buy things in women's sizes.=A0 <= br>

Eugene, these are great :)=A0 For reference, the shirt outline part of the = design is unnecessary as Spreadshirt has you place the designs in on their = template.=A0=A0 So basically I just need the logo parts.=A0 I am not much g= ood with Inkscape but was able to figure out how to separate the front and = back logos into their own files.=A0 There is an "approval" proces= s that designs have to go through for vector formats.=A0 The front side of = your first design has already been uploaded and approved by Spreadshirt as = being a valid SVG or whatever.=A0 Still waiting on the back.=A0

For your second design I had a question.=A0 Spreadshirt allows a max of= 3 colors for vector graphics.=A0=A0 I couldn't be certain but it looks= like you may be using more than that in your second shirt design.=A0 Could= you confirm?=A0 And is it possible to get it down to 3 colors?=A0

Last but not least, they require me to upload in EPS format.=A0 I was a= ble to convert your SVG's to EPS in Inkscape but I don't know if I&= #39;m using all the best settings in doing so or not.=A0 If you can provide= me the file in EPS format when you update it that would help ensure it loo= ks as good as possible since you probably know more about this than I do :)=

Thanks!
