that black one looks GOOD. still think you can increase the size of the logo+picture on the back though.

Hrm, ok, I was wrong. I mean, I still like having what MOTL stands for on the shirt, but it's overshadowing the "MOTL" part of the shirt. I know our logo is "MOTL" with Magic Online Trading League over it, but perhaps it would be better to place that underneath "MOTL"?

On the black shirt, I like the lighter gold, vs the darker gold. You can see it better.

Tom suggested having the "M" in the center/back, like it is, and putting www.magictraders.com lower down, near the bottom of the shirt. Although, I'm not sure if that's a good idea when advertising is the point of the shirt

I do like the idea that someone came up with (I don't remember whom and I don't feel like re-reading ) where you leave a blank white space for someone to sharpie their username in, although I'm not sure how that would make the shirt look should someone NOT want to write in their username. Plus I don't know how sharpie would last during washes or if it would run/ruin the shirt.

Can I ask what's wrong with our logo the way it is now? Can you not put that on a shirt?

Can't you just stick that on a shirt? That's what I had planned, when I was going to make my own. Well, I was going to put that on the center/back, with www.magictraders.com near the bottom/back and on the front where the pocket would be, I was going to put Jazaray (in green ).


My step daughter is into fashion, I could ask for her opinion

Thanks,
Jazaray

I love you too thror...

OK, disregarding my abysmal paint skills, I came up with another idea.

The website font is bigger, and in the same color as the "M".

The front will look like a magic card, I couldn't get it to look like one, I did my best. With a spot near the where a pocket would be, for someone to write in their username. Otherwise, it will just look like a blank card.

not sure what to put as a picture inside the card, although I was thinking maybe putting the MOTL logo in the picture spot, and something else in the text box.

Thanks,
Jazaray

Might want to rethink the front. The way you have the layout someone unfamiliar with MOTL is likely to read it as "Magic Online - Trading League", as in MTGO trading league. If its for advertisement purposes, I'd actually drop the name of the site since it doesn't sync up with the URL. References to MOTL would likely be fine as long as they are paired with "magictraders.com".

What exactly is the idea of having the URL on someone's ass? I have a feeling that the ratio of people that we'd like an excuse to "read" that compared to those like me that someone would need brain bleach after doesn't seem to favor MOTL at all.

For the staff shirts, I think taking off the "online" part is a good idea, too confusing for people who don't know what the site is. For the shirts that you're selling, it's nice to have that info.

I like the red shirt myself.

Jaz: Nah, keep giving suggestions. It was merely a commentary on your MS Paint skills =P.

Definitely let me know all your thoughts and opinions.

Well.. I can think of some people we could put the shirts on whom people wouldn't mind looking at their asses.

So, raise it up a little.

Thanks,
Jazaray

I wore my MOTL shirt to GP Pittsburgh last weekend. I typically like to wear a rolled up long sleeve shirt on top of t-shirts, so the back logo isn't very relevant to me. I'd like a centered logo on the front, because I had to position my overshirt weirdly in order for anyone to notice I was wearing my MOTL shirt.

Btw, are there any old shirts still available? I would totally buy a new one.

The MOTL is overshadowed by the amount of text on the front. I think that "MOTL" is one of the cool parts of the logo in general so I like Jaz's idea of the original logo that we have now. The MOTL is front and center and isn't overshadowed at all.

The front of the Rev 2 shirts just look like there is too much going on.

The back of the shirt is perfect, wouldn't change a thing. The first front is better than the 2nd. The 2nd feels too cluttered. MOTL is enough, it does not need to be spelled out. It's the first time I've actually realized the site has two names, Magictraders and MOTL. That could be confusing.

Personally, I prefer the old logo on the shirt. The new ones do look nice, though.

I think a lot of people wear jackets and coats and overshirts and what not a LOT of the time throughout the year, so having The name of the site/logo on the front and very visible as opposed to the back makes sense. As for the .com stuff.... I mean anyone can just google the name and it'll pop right up.
