JagJedi Posted September 27, 2007 Posted September 27, 2007 Check this out! Very Cool... Mine is ordered! http://www.bangbangt-shirts.com/IndividualTShirt.aspx?PostID=82
Du Man Posted September 27, 2007 Posted September 27, 2007 why on earth do they only offer it in Cranberry? Of all the colors, Cranberry is about the last one I would associate with GF. The design is nice and simple, and the dotted outline in the back symoblizes the Nivida card problems many GF players have. For me though the design is too simple and squarish to represent GF, I mean at least there should be some art-deco/film-noir/Mexican mythology feel to it. And good lord why Cranberry? For me personally, I'd prefer a black shirt with neon logos or neon strips like those around Manny's club, or a tannish shirt that has the same color scheme as the mural. I'm sure there are plunty of other options out there that i'm not thinking of, but for the love of god why cranberry!?
Thrik Posted September 27, 2007 Posted September 27, 2007 Yes, unfortunately not the type of colour I'd be caught dead wearing. That guy's shorts are also pretty suspect. Still, props for the effort and getting the shirt out there. Any GF work is good work.
Shuz Posted September 28, 2007 Posted September 28, 2007 looks great, I'd get one, but, the colour...
JagJedi Posted September 28, 2007 Author Posted September 28, 2007 Yeah the color is a bit on the odd side.... I had to get one even though I will prob never wear it.
Frenkieee Posted September 29, 2007 Posted September 29, 2007 A tan shirt with that same print would be an instabuy for me.
gingersonny Posted September 29, 2007 Posted September 29, 2007 Any colour but cranberry to be honest, I like wearing clothes with nice colours, but cranberry...its just a horrid colour

King Dando Posted September 30, 2007 Posted September 30, 2007 I like the artwork, but I loathe the colour If it was a simple colour like black for instance, I'd probably snap it up
BangBang Posted October 1, 2007 Posted October 1, 2007 Hey guys, I run the site on which that Grim Fandango t-shirt is being sold. I just want to say many thanks for talking about our t-shirt. Big thanks to JagJedi How did you find the t-shirt in the first place? Also, we've nearly sold out of our initial stock of this t-shirt. As you guys don't seem to like the cranberry, which colour would you prefer the next print to be on? We use American Apparel t-shirts and you can see all of the colours they offer here: http://store.americanapparel.net/2001.html Thanks!!
Du Man Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 gold, orange, creme, white, black, and various shads of gray if you like. Are you taking character requests too? Because then that would open the door for a whole bunch of color associations
JagJedi Posted October 2, 2007 Author Posted October 2, 2007 I would like to see a creme colored shirt, white, or black. Bang Bang.... I seriously just stumbled across your site while using google, and I'm glad I did! Any chance of you making more Grim Fandango shirts? I know there are some great artists on this site that I'm sure could come up with some creative designs.
BangBang Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 Hey guys, We always encourage people to submit designs so if anyone wants to work on something we'll definitely look at it but can't say for definite whether we would use it. Maybe someone should start a thread to find out what other characters people would buy. Could include other lucasarts games like Sam & Max too. For colours, we currently have White - 3 votes Black - 3 votes Gold - 1 vote Orange - 1 vote Creme - 3 votes Grey - 1 vote Army - 1 vote
BangBang Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 If we were to print it onto creme, do you think we should replace the white of Manny's face with the creme of the t-shirt or print the white over the t-shirt?
JagJedi Posted October 2, 2007 Author Posted October 2, 2007 If we were to print it onto creme, do you think we should replace the white of Manny's face with the creme of the t-shirt or print the white over the t-shirt? I would say keep Manny's face white with the creme shirt! Thank you so much for working with us on this!
Du Man Posted October 3, 2007 Posted October 3, 2007 keep Manny's face white, otherwise it'd just be more confusing for people what it was. And do you offer it on the back as well, or must a wear my shirt backwards? As for submitting more designs, I'm no artist and I'm not sure if the art people here are still around. Would any artist that submits designs get compensated? That may entice some GF artists to do a design, especially if they're short on time and money.
BangBang Posted October 3, 2007 Posted October 3, 2007 Hey guys, I think it would be best just to offer the design on the front on the shirt, but, like you say, you can wear if backwards if you wish! As for compensation for designs, we offer £100 or the equivalent for people who win our regular design contests and we are finalising what we should pay for people who's designs we use but aren't part of one of our competitions.
ZaXeriaw Posted October 7, 2007 Posted October 7, 2007 A tight pink one... mmmh.... so gay By the way, why the heck did you guys created a GF-tshirt?
BangBang Posted October 8, 2007 Posted October 8, 2007 We ran a games t-shirt design competition and this design won!
BangBang Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 Do you guys think the image would look OK with just the white part of the image printed onto black t-shirts?
