I did these all over prints with discharge ink last week. The design is a little crazy but you can't feel a thing. This stuff is so toxic that I couldn't feel a thing for a while either. I'm hoping Threadless does some more cool print techniques soon, there are so many possibilities with additives and processes now, I'm excited to see what they will come up with.

those are awesome prints!!! are they for anything in particular, or just a stand alone design?
gillianyvonne
gillianyvonne on Apr 24 '07 at 11:01pm
they were for a client, it's supposed to look like a loon

did you use a belt printer? or how is that done?

I think it's not bad, personally I really like discharge printing but I'm as artful as a wrinkly white T-shirt.

i wish i had a belt printer, i actually clamped a 38" x 46" screen to a table top and used a HUGE squeegee for a couple of passes

Thanks for the compliments, it was a nightmare of a job so I'm glad people dig it!

Oh sweet, I used to live in NE.
That's really rad. Looks like it took forever. Is that something you could do lots of? Or is it too hard to do in mass quanities?
gillianyvonne
gillianyvonne on Apr 24 '07 at 11:12pm
it did take forever and i only did 60. if i needed to do lots more than that i'd use a belt printer.

I'm a sales rep for a company that represents manufactuers of gifts. If you were able to do a lot of those, those would sell like hot cakes in Northern Minnesota and in Up North/Outdoorsy/Resort Gift Shops.

I LOVE Loons :)

i know what you're saying but this particular job was for a client for a one time event. i doubt they'd be down for selling the image to breezy point.
jpiatt
   jpiatt on Apr 24 '07 at 11:27pm
damn...ok.
So the client owns the design?
That's too bad, I could see these being a big hit in Walker, Breezy Point, Brainerd, Nisswa, all over up north. And if you could do other designs like this that had a Minnesota flavor to them, I could see yourself having a kick ass line that I could wholesale for you :D

haha, just a thought
email me at jeremypiatt@jeremypiatt.com if you would be interested in talking, I'm always looking for more lines like this.
I'm on AIM at mrjpiatt too.

crackers, check out koolprint.com

i've never used them but it doesn't look like you have to be a wholesaler/distributor to order

sonmi
   sonmi on Apr 24 '07 at 11:54pm
vlad- you mean digipacks? you can get them at places like discmakers
sonmi
   sonmi on Apr 24 '07 at 11:54pm
gillian, could you e-mail me info about your printing stuff too? julia at sonmisonmi.com
gillianyvonne
gillianyvonne on Apr 24 '07 at 11:56pm
sure, i'll pull something together in the morning

sonmi i was looking more for something as in a cd CASE

yeah gillian seems to be on the right track

even though i don't really know where to start on that site

haha
The Crackers
The Crackers on Apr 25 '07 at 12:00am
wow nvm

i think sonmi got it
The Crackers
The Crackers on Apr 25 '07 at 12:01am
sonmi are those like paper?

because i need those but i need to print something on them
sonmi
   sonmi on Apr 25 '07 at 12:26am
digipacks are like this



which can vary from cardboard to shiny cardstock

i don't think you can print on the cardboard through a place like kinkos. it's something you would screenprint or have professionally printed at a place like discmakers. you could always print on stickers and put them over cardboard; i see that done a lot too.
The Crackers
The Crackers on Apr 25 '07 at 12:32am
that's exactly what i need! thanks so much sonmi

i'll try and do stickers

do they sell digipaks in stores or is it online only?

and where could i find a proffesional printer?
