I made an offer for free Rapid Tac t-shirts yesterday, well no problem other than we are almost OUT !!

Got a great idea !! (time to change)the art design on the back of shirts.

How bout Rapid Tac Inc. will pay $300.00 to the person that designs the best artwork for our new shirts !!!
We are open as far as the "theme or format"
but Rapidtac management will choose the winning art layout.

Now,we must set a date for decision on
Feb 28th (yep we are in a hurry)whats new !
Please sit down and lay somethin out for this
You guys have all the talent,so come on show
it off !
We will put the name of the winner on the bottom of the art work on back of shirt !
We give away around 300 to 500 shirts a year

Also; everyone that enters will get a gallon of one of our products,and a "new shirt"
Any questions, call Jeff @ 800-350-7751

Just lookin for (4 color) picture for the back mainly(though its open for debate on the front).
In previous years we have had a picture of a race car, boats, one year we just put;
STICK IT
with R.T.
The optimum here would be to have a nice 4-color picture depicting the product use.
Oh yea, the first ones(back in 92)had a "hand drawn" (color ill.) of a 32 deuce with a roll of vinyl comming off the side of car,
as though the stripe was being laid down by some invisable means, its probably a collecters item now!

Here,we are lookin for somethin new,some real "eye candy" !
Yet corolateing the products use in to it !!

I'm just askin for da moon thats all, right ??

When you say four colour, do you mean 4 spot colours or 4 colour as in CMYK separations (full colour)? ... or either...?

Roger,

Im out. Sorry! I got tied up with the Cathedral Project Pahse 2 ( the one featured in Sign Builder Illustrated Magazine in December's issue) and that job launched my writing career as well, and I suddenly don't have a life anymore! Or maybe I don't know how to manage the workload! Anyway, you are in good hands with the great people of Letterville! They will do you proud!

Most of you know.
I have had an agrument with Roger in the past about his products..
But the other day I needed to lift an emblem off a motorcycle tank..(a 1300cc Intruder)
Well I bought some Remover to do the job as it was a Plastic logo with a full 3-M bond tape under it...Smells like lemon juice but injected it with a needle to soften and then used a gold card to lift and remove...Not a scratch on the surface... I am airbrushing a design on the surface paint and Clearcoating after the fact...
His product cleaned the surface nicely.
I E-Mailed him about this and said I like to enter the contest..I know that I will not win as there are better Designers out there with great ideas.
But just thought I would post this to him on the product I used...
Roger I saw you site and like to asks you about something, after the contest!

Good Luck to all!!!!
