 Post subject: Selling Eisley tshirtsPosted: Wed Aug 01, 2007 11:21 pm 
Hi to everyone, the website building is moving on quite well www.freewebs.com/eisleyitalia! I had a question for all of you. I found this cool website called spreadshirt where you can design t-shirts and sell them (http://www.spreadshirt.com/us/US/T-Shirt/Spreadshirt-1342/). I was wondering whether I could make one or two with Eisley Italia - Spread the Word written on them and put them on my website (a bit like the Street Team thing) and I wouldn't make any money out of it for myself (just selling them at production cost). Can I do that or not? Thanks, Jan _________________ http://www.eisley-italia.tk ! "Δῶς μοι πᾶ στῶ καὶ τὰν γᾶν κινάσω"

I would say so long as you don't use their logo or likeness it should be okay. "Eisley" comes from the Star Wars universe so in a weird way they are borrowing the name from that franchise. _________________ http://www.myspace.com/keithabbott |

My sister's an artist - I'll ask her to make a logo. My idea now is: On the front: Eisley Italia On the back: Let the Invasion begin (small print: www.eisley-italia.tk) _________________ http://www.eisley-italia.tk ! "Δῶς μοι πᾶ στῶ καὶ τὰν γᾶν κινάσω"

you should PM boyd. But he is probably really friggin busy right now. But a while ago we tried to make a shirt for the forum and he said it probably wasnt a good idea, because of WB and stuff... _________________ www.allisongill.net www.myspace.com/silverbugs www.last.fm/users/allisoncostello www.imahuman.tumblr.com www.isitreallysostrange.wordpress.com [i spend too much time on the internet, apparently.]

My sister is going to make the graphic design on it Eisley Italia will appear. Anyways I saw there is one eisley fan shirt on cafepress with an official eisley picture. I won't post the logo, a picture or anything copyrighted. I pm'd boyd twice about other things but he's probably way too busy. I can wait. It's not urgent. But having people walk around Italy with Eisley t-shirts and an url might help a lot! Thanks anyways _________________ http://www.eisley-italia.tk ! "Δῶς μοι πᾶ στῶ καὶ τὰν γᾶν κινάσω"

it should be ok, as long as you aint making profit. Loads of folk made an LC tee a couple of years back. I remember a discussion about copywright etc back then (a plan, i think, was to have someone make 'em and send 'em out and get paid for costs... eventually we decided to make 'em ourselves. mine still isn't finished). _________________ She is handsome, she is pretty, she is the girl from Belfast City, she is courtin' one two three, please won't you tell me who is she?

Yeah - it's not for profit, it's just for spreading the word! And with no profit, they're even cheaper! _________________ http://www.eisley-italia.tk ! "Δῶς μοι πᾶ στῶ καὶ τὰν γᾶν κινάσω"

Then maybe the title shouldn't be "selling Eisley t-shirts". |

The point is this  I'm going to work on a design and hand it to one of those websites like cafepress who will print on t-shirts, stickers, hats etc. and then I can create my own little shop which will then appear on my website.
It's the best way to get people to show off their Eisley passion but it's not something I'll do now - I have to wait for the site some success and I'd like to talk to boyd about it. _________________ http://www.eisley-italia.tk ! "Δῶς μοι πᾶ στῶ καὶ τὰν γᾶν κινάσω"

That never answered my question.  All I want is a "Yes, I am selling them" or a "No, I am not selling them.".

it's a roundabout answer, Nora. A shop requires items to sell. ... _________________ She is handsome, she is pretty, she is the girl from Belfast City, she is courtin' one two three, please won't you tell me who is she? TheClassicRomance wrote: Facebook is a dirty skank blog! |

Yes, but still. Is a yes or no answer that hard? |

Gosh - don't know how to answer it. What do you mean by selling them or not? I don't sell them directly, I just make the artwork and choose what items to put it on but the money doesn't go to me - it goes to the cafepress thing for production costs and shipping costs. _________________ http://www.eisley-italia.tk !
