Do you think we should come up with a special design for SDCFans T-shirts in honor of the 50th anniversary next year? We could all wear them any time we're at the park so we can find each other as well as show our appreciation and excitement at SDC celebrating such a huge achievement.

I have a friend who owns a screen-printing company. He was telling me yesterday that an order of 25 shirts would be $10 a shirt. That made me think about how we should get extra-special shirts for next year.

I plan to be there all day May 1st, and I'm sure plenty of others on here are hoping to be there, too. It'd be the best and very appropriate day to have a huge gathering of forum members.

What do ya'll think? I know it's a ways away, but time slips by fast, and it always works best to plan early.

Being swamped with Christmas and work and commissions etc, I have little time to work on art lately or at least until January, but one of my old works might easily be adapted to an SDCFans shirt if need be. I could arrange something to be done with one of them. I have 2 or 3 other paintings to upload still but nothing too good for a shirt. Stay tuned to it for more uploads I am working on more in my free time.

Yeah, your art is AMAZING. It'd be awesome to use one of your pieces. They'd have to be adapted to be just one color, unless we want to pay more than $10 a shirt (I don't know how much it is for two colors).

I've got an idea buzzing around in my head. I'm gonna try sketching it out on Paint Shop Pro and see how it comes out. It may look better in my head than it would "on paper". LOL

Sounds like a neat idea to me. Just be sure to not use anything that's SDC trademarked, like the logo, or even the words "Silver Dollar City". SDC or SDCFans is OK though.

Don't know what I'll be able to come up with using one color, but I'll try to set some time aside to try something.

we would need a color that would stnd out. I love the picture of Shad but I'm afraid that it might be a tradmark violation and that he no longer is view as  a symble of the city.
SDC has always made a great past to remember

Thankfully I do my art for fun, and for others, not for $$ cause if I tried... I would surely run into copyright infringement issues with half of my stuff even though it is an artistic interpretation. One color...hmmm I'll throw ideas around if I can...

Took a few minutes...
need more time to think...

I would love to have a tshirt myself so I can identify my fellow SDC lovers.  It is a shame that Shad is not a symbol of the park anymore.  He will always be one for me.

If anyone has pictures of the park at Christmas, could you please post them so I could see the new tree.

I was suppose to come this year but of course they told us at work that our pay for December could be delayed due to lack of funds from the state so I had to cancel my plans.  And I work for the State of Illinois.... I just want to work at SDC!!

So please keep us posted and I will take at least one if not more if they come in different colors.

Alright I took some time to get out my initial thoughts last night, now I have a clean slate to work with! Now onto a shirt design of some sort! (I had to get those thoughts out, cause I kept going back to them, now I can be creative)

I like the first 2, and would love one with your picture of Terry as the sheriff, but the 3rd one should be DPFans, LOL

Unfortunately I would assume the likeness of Terry is somehow copyrighted by HFEC.
