ORIGINAL GITD DESIGN LINK

1. Would you still order if it's not a particular color (if majority doesn't vote the color you want)?
2. Would you pay extra to add more GITD luminosity? (The glow color would be the ink color we choose.)
3. Would you donate to get the added GITD luminosity to keep shirt costs down? (We need about $100)

The original order was Neon Yellow GITD Ink.
Please vote for which color ink you would like on this next order!
The glow color is the standard greenish.
Red GITD(I think flourescent red looks magenta-ish)
Blue GITD
Yellow GITD
Green GITD

Voted for Brighter Yellow GITD. Brighter Green GTID would have been second choice, after that blue and red... red only appeals to be if it's dark red.

For the questions;
1. Probably/Maybe. (I would be in for all colors except Magenta.)
2. Yes - depends how much? ($5-$10 I would.)
3. Not sure - probably - if it came down to a small donation to get better ink for the whole group I would contribute, but I would prefer if it was just factored into the cost of the shirt in the first place.

1. Yes
2. Yes (a few $, not more than $10 extra each)
3. Yes (but not the whole $100) :na:

If we factored the cost into the shirts, it would add $6 per shirt (not horrendous, but it is more) I'm willing to pay extra for mine... given the pictures that Wildlands posted on the original thread, that GITD powder additive is suuper bright.

I voted for a brighter blue GITD...but normal blue would also be awesome :)
(Didn't knew that this is a multiple choice poll :/ )

Haha 10 minute glow from red and orange... It would be really cool for those 10 minutes! :D

So, after doing some more research into this stuff... I realize implementing these glow powders into our shirts will require 3 prints on a black shirt:
1. White on black (for the base)
2. Whatever color we want
3. The clear-ish glow in the dark film

The powder doesn't work mixing it straight into colored ink from what I can gather... Wildlands correct me if you know more about this. You've used this stuff...
Members of their forum have said they mix the powder into a clear plastisol base to put over their colored designs... so I need to see if my printer can mix a clear ink with this powder for us. I'll find out on Monday (He's out of town)

Three prints would bump up the price quite a bit.... especially with two patterns (front and back) per shirt.

Idk, my absolute limit for these would be $50 or so... past that a polo just isn't worth it to me.

I would have to agree... the point of this isn't to spend or make a ton of money (for me anyways). I wanted to supply everyone with some cool shirts at a reasonable price.

This stuff would be SUPER cool, but if it gets to $25-$30 for a tshirt... I'll do it if there's demand, but that's kinda crazy. GITD in the first place was cool that it was available, and for $20 tshirts, I think they're super rad :)

My consensus is that now that these are done, compared to one the highest grade GITD supplements, yeah of course it's not going to be as bright, but I think they turned out great without the added supplement.

^^^It's a shame, but yeah, definitely agreed.

Maybe if we could get an order with more people involved it would work... say 50 people or so... but seeing how last order went I don't know if it's possible.

Would be very cool.

Some day perhaps...

Until then though - Shall we do yellow, green, or blue for the next GITD print? :D
Red being a pinkish is not winning the battle haha

Yeah... I would go for a deep wine/blood red... but pink... well, I do have two pink shirts but glowing pink, that's a different story:p

I guess since we did yellow already, let's for for GTID Green! Should stand out very well at night too. Blue is kind of dark imho.
