Hey hey,
I could have sworn there was a thread about this in the past, but a few searches on the forums didn't turn up much.
When you people create shirts for their various contests and events, whom do you use? Do you have connections with a friend or family member in the business, do you go with a national company (like one where a web site lets you upload your own design and author the shirt there) or a smaller company whom we might not know at all?
This year i'm thinking of making a shirt for the DEFCON Shoot. The design i'm toying with is pretty simple, and may turn out basically like this...

... many folk who have bought rifles with "scary" features like a pistol grip, a birdcage on the muzzle, a bayonet lug, etc etc etc will get the joke. i have wound up with so many of those little orange tags laying around that i started wondering what i could do with them. they're too flimsy for turning into keychains or con badge decorations, so i figured maybe they'd make a good inside joke on a shirt.
If i want to produce these for the shoot, i'd like to be able to do it for bottom dollar so that people don't pay out the ass but still have something that will stand up to laundry day repeatedly. Think i could make these for about $10 each or something?
Happy to hear suggestions on companies.
