All our foils, including those that sparkle, glitter or glow in the dark, will have one standard price starting May 5th, 2008. This is also true for printing complex designs. All designs will cost the same - regardless of their complexity. Last but not least, the extra cost for additional lines of text (which were an extra $0.50 per line) is being removed. You can therefore sport up to five lines of text on your chest at the fixed price of just $3.00!   old new Specialty foils: $1.50 – $3.00 $0 Intricate & complex designs: $2.50 - $6.00 $0 Additional lines of text: $0.50 $0 Additional colors, each: $2.50 $2.50   "It is time we spring cleaned our prices," says market-researcher Tobias. "As Spreadshirt has continually added new features and products over the last five years, the pricing has become more and more complex. The new approach will make it easier for both shop-owners and customers alike – and also considerably cheaper." P.S. The new prices will take affect on May 6th, 2008. Due to the re-calculation of thousands of products, it is possible that the changes in price (and therefore the general price reductions) won't be available in your shop for a further 48-hours. http://www.spreadshirt.com/us/US/About-us/News-2104/newsId/84 Washed Pink in the Junior's Semi-Sheer Tee to be de-listed http://www.spreadshirt.com/us/US/About-us/News-2104/newsId/81 Due to a manufacturing error we will unfortunately be discontinuing the Junior's Semi-sheer Tee in the color washed pink. We have removed all sizes from our inventory except for medium, which can still be ordered for a short time. http://www.spreadshirt.com/us/US/About-us/News-2104/newsId/81 New printing technique: Digital Direct http://www.spreadshirt.com/us/US/About-us/News-2104/newsId/79 Breaking news from the Spreadshirt Printing Lab: photos and images with lots of colors and gradients can now be printed on dark T-shirts! Digital Direct printing means that the traditional techniques of color printing will be become a relic of the past. Digital Direct (or lovingly known at Spreadshirt as ‘Didi’) is straightforward and stress-free: Upload a good old-fashioned pixel-based design (e.g. .png, .gif, .jpg or .bmp) to your shop or directly into our Designer. Unlike our flex and flock print options – your design will NOT need to be proofed by our design team, so you can start designing, buying, or selling your products instantly! And what exactly happens to my design with the ‘Didi’ print technique? The designs are directly printed onto the t-shirt fabric (unlike our other techniques where they are printed onto a film and then ironed on) with a special type of ink-jet printer. The print comes out as a very thin and soft layer on the fabric. Very dark t-shirts are ‘primed’ with a layer of white before the design colors are printed, helping to create the high-contrast and quality you have come to expect! http://www.spreadshirt.com/us/US/About-us/News-2104/newsId/79 The following colors will be deactivated from the products listed here: http://www.spreadshirt.com/us/US/About-us/News-2104/newsId/78 Ice Blue from the women's long sleeve bamboo hoodie Purple from the women's long sleeve bamboo hoodie Wet Sand from the men's short sleeve bamboo tee We still have some stock left in these colors so they will not be deactivated immediately, but expect to see them removed over the next few weeks. http://www.spreadshirt.com/us/US/About-us/News-2104/newsId/78 Product Colors that are going away... http://www.spreadshirt.com/us/US/About-us/News-2104/newsId/77 The following colors will be deactivated from the products listed here: Violet in the women's heavyweight tee Banana in the women's spaghetti strap tank Sky/Navy in the junior's baseball tee Brown/Tan in the junior's baseball tee We still have some stock left in these colors so they will not be deactivated immediately, but except to see them removed over the next few weeks. http://www.spreadshirt.com/us/US/About-us/News-2104/newsId/77
