#295 - This sudden burst of showers, and me with no umbrella...

Hrm. I think I'm going to have to rethink my ideas about trying to sell T-shirts this year at ACEN. Doing that shit is more expensive than I thought; a 6-color design on a standard ladies' tee with ten pieces per size and five different sizes total runs almost $800 on this website. One multiple-color design, fifty T-shirts total, $800. I imagine the price to be similar elsewhere, considering that apparently more colors cost more because the printers have to set up the equipment and stuff.

I think I can easily adapt my "Shiroko Studios" designs to single-color silhouettes for the time being, if only because I want at least some T-shirts for ACEN. I'm much less optimistic about my "Anime: Because It's True" designs, though, because though inevitably will require a fair amount of color. (I tried doing a practice quote on a full-color shirt design out of curiosity and found that the minimum size order for such a design had to be 144 pieces. orz! Not gonna happen in the near future.) I should probably just look into prints and posters for those for the time being.

Well, at least finals are almost over and then you has Spring Break time!!! Yay?

Exactly.
And more importantly- lady, what else is LJ for but emo?

Emilia exploits it for such purposes all the time!

Aw man! I hadn't realised that was what you were talking about when you mentioned the t-shirt thing--that sucks even more than I'd thought.
