We are hoping that this will happen quickly and easily. Understand, please, that this is taking time from his business, so he is going to try to sell for a small profit. Right now, he is estimating $18.00, including shipping, per shirt, but that is not set in stone as he is still figuring out costs. If he only sells at cost it might not be worth it for him seeing as this is his job and he needs to make money. I have seen a rough of the shirt and it looks great thus far. The photo came out clear, and the quality is good. A few people on the list have suggested that everyone's names be put on the shirt, but I don't think that is a good idea for this particular shirt. Let me explain- a lot of people come and go on lists, and some arn't really good fans- you have to make sure you don't leave anyone out, and if a fan not on the list sees your shirt he/she might want one but it wouldn't have his name on it & he wouldn't buy it and visually support the band...etc. I think that this first shirt should just be about Rasputina. This is the only marketed Rasputina shirt out there that I know of, and I think it should just be for the band. However, if the response for this shirt is good there is a huge chance that Paul will do this again, and then we can gladly make our list shirts. And I'll take ideas at that point (not now) for those shirts so it isn't just my design that we're all wearing, but a collaboration of all of our individal tastes and ideas. I had intended to do everyone a favor by this, and I am sorry if anyone is offended by my iniative, thinking who the hell am I and why do I get to do this. As I said before, I was planning on doing this before I joined the list, and now I'm inviting all of you in on it. Thank you for your enthusiasm and understanding, Anatresia PS. and Thornia- thanks for your support... == All that I am, all that I was, and all that I could ever hope to be existed in a time when the world was without me.
