POLL:

who would be interested in Tall ts with characters like bert and ernie, elmo, the cookie monster, and the like on them?

sizes would most likely be 4xl-2xl/xl


also, what material would you like the t's to be in?

Make more than just sesame street what about super heros and looney toons. If you could legally do this you could make a serious profit

that would be dope. id make the like 2-6xlt, but sure as hell dont make them out of cotton. shit will shrink up to a normal t.  if you could find like 50% cotton, 50% polyester, that would work.

 also what would the prices be?

alright so you want to argue about icons? my icon is a homemade ms paint treasure, yours is a shitty calligraphy letter of which your last name starts with that you copied off google images. not much to argue about there.

also to stay on topic, I would definitely buy that cookie monster tee, but you're gonna run into legal issues for sure.

lol beat me to it there it is ^ the tee is 27 inches neck to base, so not a tall tee, but still something to wear around the house. also, as this is the first tee, Its not perfect and should i get permission to sell these it will only be 15 dollars+shipping.

Heres just a little design that I thought of to get around tey copyrights, how you like

Click for larger image

This design could be easily produced and would have the script around the whole tee. I know alot of people have their hearts set on a tee with cookie m on it but this could be a way to get around copyrights.

Hello,

This should be fine. Just send me a JPEG image of the shirts for record.

Only other request I have is that you consider some kind of charitable arm to your initiative. As you know, Sesame Workshop is a non-profit organization dedicated to the education of children worldwide. All of the proceeds we receive from licensed product go back to funding our work. Maybe there is something at a local level that you can contribute to.

Good luck.
Margaret


Heifer International is what I'm looking at currently.

Material? Chain mail. think about the marketing oppertunities: the only tall tee that protects you from stab wounds while being steezy.

These are the four t-shirts im looking at currently for the first batch. I only need to know how many t's i'd need to buy. I'm thinking about starting with 30, then producing them in 10-20 shirt batch's depending on the demand.

Anyway here are the shirts. please disregard all previous shirts, as they will not be the ones i will make. They are all fixed because either they were bad quality, or crappy designs.

Here they are, please tell me what you like, and what I could do better, but tell me soon because I'll need to order them.

NOTE: this last tee will have a back as well, saying "erry day" in roughly the same position as the front letters, except on the back.

Thanks again for all the support guys.
