    Default Official "Show us your HV20.com T-shirt" thread (You and your T-shirt in action)

    I'm about to run out to the mail box and see if my HV20.com T-shirt has arrived yet. I'm pretty sure it'll be a few more days, but the build-up is so much FUN!

    So, like the title says: Show us your T-shirt and You, hopefully doing something video related- even if justs sitting at home watching a movie. Let's try and be creative here, since we actually a theme.

    I thought maybe we could do a "Best T-shirt Photo" contest after everyone has their shirts. This could be really fun (and a good marketing strategy) so go to our shop and get yourself some new threads! Imagine a crazy location, or something creative or spoofy like a Last Supper remake shoot or a re-made scene from your favorite movie- incorprating you and your HV20.com T-shirt. Let's just try not to do standard portraits- heck get your dog in their if you can't think of anything.... I think we should be PG-13 on this at worst...

    BTW- If somebody ordered and got their shirt before me- BY ALL MEANS, POST AWAY! Hopefully we'll all get them around the same time.

    Thanks again to the contestants, voters, and everyone for getting involved, and a special thanks to Mal for really taking charge and making this happen....

    Hmmm. I wonder what kind of photo shoot I'm going to have to set up to get the right pic of my HV20.com T-shirt....

    I was just leaving when I thought to check the porch... WOO HOO, I got my HV20.COM Tee in the mail today!!

    I figured I'd let everyone know that the T-shirts are well made and comfortable- not too thick, and the medium I ordered fits like a medium should. The screened parts are smooth and look great!

    It's crazy seeing my design screened on the front! It looks so cool!! Wow, I am the first person in the world with an HV20.com T-shirt! What an honor!!

    I promise to post an "action pic" soon.... Go place your orders everyone!

    So, without further ado....

    Ladies and Genteleman, your OFFICIAL HV20.com T-shirt:

    I've got a pay since, but a lot of things to pay with it since too. In the upcoming weeks, I'll see with charlie and we'll buy our items on the same bill.

    I'm still trying to figure out how to use Paypal without linking a bank account (too expensive to keep another one open at the moment) or credit card (don't have one. )...

    Tim: go to the local post office and buy a prepaid Visa. They even offer you a re-loadable card that you can reload returnin at the post office. I've used 2-3 (single use) and I plan to get a reloadable one soon. I've never had any problem buying things online with them.

    Well, my rule of thumb on new Tee's is to wash them with cold water and air dry them- NO DRYER!! Break them in a bit before appying any type of heat.

    My shirt isn't as thick as some of the other Gildan "Ultra cotton" Tee's I've had (which is good) so I'm thinking it might shrink a tad if you threw it in the washer on high heat.

    I wash everything on high heat. If I ever get a job, I'm going to buy one for sure.

    I'm still buying a shirt, I'm just a broke ass dude. And it's hard for me to buy clothes over some sort of filming equipment, but I'm definitely buying one.

    After quite a few washes and a regular spot in my T-shirt rotation, My HV20.com T-shirt is staring to show signs of age- the black is fading a little in spots and the white letttering has a few cracks:

    IMG_0249.jpg

    It's also getting oh-so-soft, unlike most cotton T-s.

    All of this is normal, and I wear the pants out of my shirts so it should be expected that they will break down eventually...

    I like T-shirts worn in better anyway.... Doesn't everyone?

    Haha yeah, don't you wear it nearly every day? I remember you saying something like that. So yeah I guess it was expected. I love the green and your design!
