    I'm not selling them and have no affiliation with the seller other than using them for an order. Just throwing this idea out there for anyone who would want one.

    I sell antique toys and thought it would be cool to have t-shirts to wear at swap meets so I started looking on ebay and found a company that makes custom order t-shirts so I gave one a shot. The shirt arrived in just a few days and is nice quality. This one is what they call baseball font. I'd use the font link in the ebay link below for a forum shirt I think.

    All you have to do is pick the color and size. Then let them know what you want on it ie "Maverick/Comet Forums".

    Easy and cheap. The motorcycle forum I'm on had a member do shirts and they were like $35.00 each. :huh:

    Just to throw another idea out there:

    In the past for some gaming guilds I've been in, we've designed patterns for iron on patterns that go through ink jet printers. Then published them in multiple graphics formats so members can print their own and put them on any shirt they want.

    I've made like 10 shirts for 12 bucks before that way.

    Usually you want a dark and a light shirt design.

    He does. My wife ordered this one for me for Christmas!

    BTW, I am the oldest of 3 and it was an inside joke (reality) that I was "The Favourite". That's where "The Fav" fits on the shirt. I'm also thinking of it for a License Plate.

    What I liked about this guy was he tailored the colours and options exactly like my car.

    Thanks Stefan!

    My wife ordered it from e-Bay. It was a little pricey, but worth it for me to have a one-off T-shirt of my car. I don't think it would be feasable for any group orders, but I'm happy with it.:thumbs2:

    Custom Maverick T-Shirt

    He has a good eye for detail, I must say. My wife had actually 'picked' the wrong wheels, but she sent him a photograph of my car and he put the proper hubcap/trim rings on it. Shipping is a little slow, and the shirt isn't wrapped in plastic, just a mailer envelope, so I was worried about the shirt getting dirty, but so far, so good.

    And I still haven't worn it yet, because like Gene, I'm worried I'll get it dirty and destroy it in the washer:( Gonna save it for this summer's cruise-scene.

    It arrived already. Not bad for $8.00 plus shipping.

    Wheather you want a shirt with the forum name or not, this place is fast and does a good job. The shirts they use are quality and the printing is great. I'll use them again if I need personalized shirts.

    The 2 others I ordered from the online site Vista Print were total garbage. They only offer white T-shirts and they were tissue thin. Plus their lettering was the quality of a cheap iron on.
