      Do you mean over the top of the KB logo... or did you roll your own last time?

      I'd be happy to get the No Way Nick logo over the KB one (although Spank probably wouldn't be as keen on the idea..?) Can the t-shirt transfers have a solid white background to cover up what's behind??

      My Easy Target Hi-Vis is pretty tired now, so a No Way Nick replacement seems like a good idea to me as well.

      I haven't got the KB logo on the front of mine - so it is a blank canvas awaiting a suitable message :-)

      Phew, I'm so glad you were able to change the start time, I was worried that we'd have a clash with the anti mining people. Those hippies can be quite vicious!

      Do you think I'll be able to attend the March Against Mining and meet you all at Queen Street on my bike afterwards? (I'm a bit of an anti mining hippy myself)

      I think we should make our propaganda personal:

      How about T-shirts with: "Loony Nick Out,No Mad Ginger C**ts in Parliament"

      Whatever suits you, we have been in touch with the March organiser, he/they are right behind our protest but we just dont want to clash, bikes at walking pace? not going to happen.

      I spoke to one of the Greenpeace March organisers this morning, he is quite happy with the us changing the time, we should get to the bottom of Queen St after they have finished their march. We dont want to muddy their protest, and we dont want to muddy ours. You should be able to take part in the Compass ride part of our protest, and then peel off and join the hippies at the start of their protest. It wont work the other way around, we are avoiding them you see

      Hey guys, What time do we leave from Oteha Valley?!

      A point about the shirts...
      They must be black.
      They must be clear black where the logo is to go. I can't place over top of an existing print.
      Logo can be on front or back (specify).
      They can be a used shirt with something already on the other side.
      The material must be able to stand high heat (like...no silk!! Or nylon, etc). Standard T material is ideal.
      Enclose the money and a postpaid, reply addressed bag. I don't want to be collating bank payments and shirts...gets messy and apt for errors.
      If you don't have access to my address in the Group forum, then pm me

      Are the tranfers iron on?
      Rather than send shirts through the post can we just buy the transfers to afix to the t-shirts ourselves?

      Cheers

      In short, no.
      We can not supply them for you to fit.

      You can probably down load the logo and print it onto a t-shirt transfer though. MSTRS uses a different process.

      Yep, you could do that. Print the image in reverse in that special paper and then press with an iron.
      My process is similar, but I'm actually applying high heat and heavy, even pressure using a press, to a special vinyl to fuse it onto the fabric.
      I have to cut a white triangle, with the words cut out of it (one reason for the black shirt)...press that onto the shirt, and then cut the red part, with the ACC in the corners, and then fuse that on top of the white bit. It's quite time consuming BUT very effective and lasts 'for ever'.
      Anyone seen the Bitches shirts? Same process.
