Virginia Gun Owners Forum - VGOF

i am aware the back image is missing the main forum name. i think it should also incorporate the forum web address but that maybe over crowding the tee. the pic is just a sample.

rick if/when you choose to screen-print, definitely call around. i did some things last year & you would be surprised how much more expensive a lot of places are from others. i ended up doing biz with a company in haymarket va, tirage enterprises and their prices are way lower. there is also district lines [dot] com, they allow you to upload images to design your tee (or whatever) and people buy directly from them and the profit is shared - by how much i don't know.

so here's some ideas, see if you like them... looks pretty good on a shirt! also included the old image for example.

enjoy...

What's the significance of the red and tan rays of light emanating from the state seal?

rays of aww or godslight... it's just an eye-catchy design...and so it is, it caught your eye. lol. you don't approve?

Yes - eye catchy It seems, at first glance, something from a WWII war movie (Japanese)

I like what you've done, so please don't get me wrong.

btw - here's what the first round of VGOF t-shirts looked like. Not that I want to stick with that, just tossing it in there to help your creative abilities

thanks. that's a nice design, i like it. though, i don't understand the web address on the front and back. so is an ar15 a logo/design you want to stick with? i see it on most of your stuff.

btw.. most people i show all my designs to pick the rising sun version. it's grunge which is very 'in' right now but not at all conservative, which i'm beginning to think is your preference. is it?

i knew someone was gonna say that, lol. i wasn't really going for that in the design, i just wanted something to connect the eye from the va seal back to the shooter.

rick i'm definitely not taking anything wrong, i want to hear everyones opinions, suggestions, etc. don't worry, i have thick skin, you won't hurt my feelings if you don't like it. i want people to tell me/show me what they like.

weeeeellllllll... I like AR-15's because they are the most recognizable, meanest of the mean

Also, the web address...that's the whole point of the shirts, really in my humble opinion...to get people to notice the gun and the link - and go there!

Generally conservative - yes.

This was my second take on a shirt design.

It has come to my attention that the State Seal is the property of the Commonwealth of Virginia and that it may not be used without specific permission.

I just created a VGOF photo gallery of many of the images that I've worked up (ome with assistance) over the last couple of years.

http://vgof.org/photogallery.php?album_id=3

bummer about the va seal..who knew? i will take a look-see at your gallery. when i searched before, all i found was dk's picnic photo-stream...to bad he didn't use people's forum screen names lol.

For those paying attention, just in case, "Tyrannis" has two (2) "n"s.

A couple of the examples above have only one (1).

Also, the guy who made some of the images in my photo gallery incorrectly spelled it "Tyrannus"

I'd like to add my two cents if you don't mind.

This image here is really good but its missing the web address.


To me this image looks more complete than the image with the web address do to it having rounded corners all the way round.

The version you did that was like this but with the web address didn't have rounded corners at the bottom.

Maybe you could round the bottom corners and then add the web address. Just a thought.

By the way, if you do round the corners and add the web address, I'll be willing to pre-order at least two shirts.

btw i wasn't suggesting to go without the web address, i was questioning it on both the front and back of the shirt...as in, why not one or the other, not both.

Max exposure, anyone talking to you and see it as well as those behind you.

what do you guys think of this for the front? once i get the shading right, it will pop! i think that's tight.

so the above for the front, and either of these for the back. not sure if you guys are grooving on the aged look, sorta civil war like, which i think is cool. speak up and let me know if i'm going in the wrong direction and you prefer the nba logo more (the original design). either way i think this new front with the guns is wicked.

so front:
