See im a graphic designer and im trying to take it to the next level im tired of seeing the same shirt on like 10 people at the parties so give me some insite on what would u like to see

The reason we all wear the same thing at parties (at least in my experience) is #1.. laziness and #2 it's cheaper! (probably more #2 than #1)

well my merchandice will probably be cheaper than what you will normally pay because i wont have any overhead (I.E brick and mortor stores) so this is really something that im starting to use my degree im a college student too so i know how tight money can be

There are actually some online sites that allow you to customize your own merchandise (upload jpg's etc). If you're operating silkscreen printers isn't there a little bit of overhead involved with custom prints?

I would like to see more Sigma Gamma Rho pari with poodles on them. I would also like to see pari with our Founder's on them.

Thanks,

A snake is always good on a like a red or white back ground, make the snake fade out from it and have OX letters in there or a red carnation.

1) Glow in the dark letters, things you can see in a dark party or under a black light.

2) Rhinestone letters and symbols. Something girls can wear that looks sophisticated, but fun.

As a Zeta, I would like to see more "fancier" cats...not a lazy cat, but one with attitude. For me, seeing that is rare, and I would buy something like that.
My pet peeve, seeing nalia that has pictures of the founders, IN THEIR OLDER DAYS......

My $19.20

Hey,
I was just wondering if you have a website or not or if you plan to get one? I like the idea of glow in the dark/blacklight letters like on a black shirt or something. Also, another good idea I've seen on the web, but it isn't really screenprinting, is selling just letters so greeks can use them for fundraising. Also, I always look around on the web to find cheap Theta Phi Alpha paraphenila. TPA is hard to find in general! And sometime what I do find is just ugly.

I'm trying to get a head start for when we're rechartered and possibly even find prices cheaper for shirts online than what we [would] pay to order from a local supplier. Oh, one last thing! My big issue when shopping online is shipping and handling. I found a really cheap website the other day, but the shipping was OUTRAGEUS!! I wanted to order a car decal for $1.95 and the shipping on that ALONE was $8.95!!!

You could ship that for 70cents at the most in a manila envelope!
XOXO,
Steph

Yeah, TrojanGirl, I'm feeling you, I wear the same size shoe. Also bigger sized clothing items, all of us aren't teeny tiny. And I think you'd get a lot of business, especially from the locals and others (we're multicultural) who aren't national, because some sites don't offer customization of letters, they just have the national GLO's available. There are two sites that I've found that are "Greek" sites that have custom lettering.
