misteraven Posted April 3 Author Share Posted April 3 Probably should have started a new thread for this, but I’m also trying to share things regularly with all of you here on the forum and give you guys a first peak, even if it’s not really quite ready for prime time sharing. Anyhow, we’ve made some really incredible progress on here lately with the roll call thread and I’ve explained a couple times across a couple threads some ideas / strategies/ plans for how I intend to continue the progress and encourage growth. Last forum tee did pretty great and I still get a lot of questions and comments about a follow up. My plan is to release a regular series of 12ozProphet tees that are specific to the forum. These will come and go like most tees I’ve dropped in the past. I would, however, like to do one classic tee dedicated to the forum that is always available. I’m also trying to encourage new members, which I expect to be a younger demographic to join in and participate. My thought is to bundle a fun tee that will become the classic forum tee into a new version of VIP. Idea being that you buy the tee and you get a year of VIP as part of that purchase. But likewise, the only way to buy that tee, is to do so by signing up for VIP. I’m still considering what else VIP includes beyond access to a new private area, which will have advanced access to drops, exclusive releases and whatever else I can work up to make it extra fun, worth the cost, as well as a path for those that want to show extra support. Anyhow, I’m attaching a design I pulled together. It’s a bit loud and a little over the top, but it’s fun, clean, true to the classic 12oz aesthetic and also geared to feel a little “young” since another goal is to appeal to new members, which I expect will mostly be a younger demographic. Ironically, also feels a little punk rock to me since it seems that trend has been more towards minimal shit. Regardless, I tried to imagine the type of design I’d have gone ape shit for back when I was a young and 12ozProphet was in full swing. I’m still thinking it through and playing with ideas. Normally I wouldn’t share anything that’s not really compete and final, but I’m trying to make it fun and trying to find excuses to support community AND conversation. 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glorydays Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 I will cop a new forum tee whenever it drops. my collection is getting pretty big. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.yuck Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Haha. I generally try not to wear my 12oz shirts to customers houses after this one insufferable shit head was all "what's 12oz? Is that your baseball team?" I told him I had no idea that I picked this shit up from a thrift store. In retrospect, it might have been really fun for him to have found his way here and spew his retardo nonsense. In the future I'll make sure to send them straight to channel 0 after the check clears. 😂 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This to me is ideal weight f9r a t. It pretty.much answered your question in the other thread you where asking about quality opinions. I think that color too. It's reminds me of an oatmeal color.

ndv Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 If I remeber correctly, we talked about it before a few years ago. @Joker mentioned he worked on designing the graphic or something like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that you mention it, I do vaguely remember that conversation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is looking slick and thanks for sharing it, your thought process and plans with us. Very cool to see the process. In the spirit of conversation, the only feedback I have is the “Writers Forum” on the front is a bit much for my taste. IMO it would look super clean with just the “12” graphic from the front over the heart. I’m not much of a big graphic on the front of a tees type anymore though. The current version does remind me of a baseball shirt where it has the team name and the players number underneath on the front. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmmm... now I can't remember if I worked on that or not, I don't even recall what it looked like. I've done a handful of things for 12oz but right now the only thing I can recall was a poster - and that was a very long time ago. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be mistaken but I thought we had a discussion about the graphic design and somehow you were tied in to it. I'll snap a photo of the tee when I get a chance.
