Obviously, this is also a possibility for bringing back the first two styles as well. And, it would get me out of handling your money and fretting about order fulfillment. Yes, I'd set my "take" per shirt to zero.

And Fernando, I believe they offer color and I just happen to have that takouba logo art in high resolution...

Hi Lee,
Are they using real silkscreens or transfers for the design ?

PERHAPS SOMEONE WITH LOTS OF KATARS AND A SHIELD COULD LAY OUT SOMETHING LIKE THIS AND TAKE A PICTURE OF IT TO SUBMIT. WE CAN'T USE THIS PICTURE FOR THE PURPOSE WE HAVE IN MIND BUT WE CAN FIND INSPIRATION IN IT. I DON'T COLLECT INDIA WEAPONS MUCH BUT CAN APPRECIATE A BEAUTIFUL ARRANGEMENT.

THIS SORT OF THING COULD BE DONE WITH MORO WEAPONS, CLUBS OR JUST ABOUT ANYTHING AND WOULD MAKE A BEAUTIFUL DESIGN. THE OLD SHIRTS HAD SORT OF A WAGON WHEEL ARRANGEMENT TO THE PIECES AND LOOKED GOOD.
WE COULD MAKE IT SORT OF A CONTEST AND THEN VOTE ON THE ENTRY WE LIKE BEST OR PERHAPS THE FAVORITE TWO AS IT COULD HAVE TWO DESIGNS OF DIFFERENT REGIONS ONE FRONT AND ONE BACK.

THE PROBLEM WITH TOO MANY IDEAS LIKE THIS IS IT BECOMES COMPLICATED AND OFTEN BECOMES LIKE A BEAURACY AND NOTHING GETS DONE BUT TALK.

Almost certainly these will be transfers of some sort; but they are an option for reviving availability of the old designs, for possible future short runs and for designs calling for color. I still plan to do the monochrome silkscreen printing of the present design - for those who have expressed interest, I must apologize, life has gotten unexpectedly busy this month and the final edits on the artwork are backed up in the queue.

This 'ZAZZLE' thing works fine.
For $18,45 i was able to 'create' a t-shirt with my favourite (gone) cat.
You don't have to be an informatic specialist to apply a picture and (optionally) a text in a t-shirt with a model, size and colour of your choice, in their (common sense built) software.
Definitely, after this test, i will 'create' another t-shirt, this time with the takouba logo and the forum lettering.

PS
Lee, you have a PM.
Thanks
