The original thoughts/plans for the design of the shirt went a little off – So "Plan B" should end up working great for many.
The shirt this year will be made with user submitted artwork
(similar to what we had done for a couple of years).
Instead of the pre-order process that we have had the past few years, we are going to have our shirts provided through cafepress. This means that once our design is selected, a few days later they can be ordered and they will be shipped right out from cafepress (world-wide).
The design will be available on most of the products that they have such as shirts (black shirts/white shirts), hats, sweatshirts, hoodies etc.
Prices will be base prices. There will be no mark-up on these products so that they can be as cheap as possible.
CafePress ships world-wide.
The design may be FULL COLOR including photorealistic.
Please submit your great artwork. I really appreciate it!

Next year may be different. This is the best solution for this year
Can anyone vouch for the print quality of cafe press? I ordered a shirt from them years ago and it was about as quality as an iron-on transfer. Fell off after a few washes. I've heard similar complaints from other people. Has anyone heard similar stories? Or has cafe press improved their printing process?

5.0 out of 5 stars Walken 2008, November 1, 2005
By explosivo (Baltimore, MD) - See all my reviews
Cafepress is quickly handling all of their previous issues and becomming the definative site for buying unique/custom designs. They now offer the buyer a choice between direct printing and heat tranfer so you dont have to worry about fading. I've bought a bunch of stuff but my most recent purchase was some Walken 2008 bumper stickers from the link above, and they actually turned out better than I expected. Resolution was awesome and the colors matched perfectly. Im a cafepress costumer for life. A++
Fantastic guys, thank you! I feel very reassured now. I can't wait to get one of these! I know one of you ghoulies will come up with something I will love to wear. Thanks Larry for setting it up
