Even if I don't have my SVX anymore, I'd buy a hat and wear it proudly.

I just want a hat... I could be selfish and pay the 50 or 100 bucks myself keep all the rights to the images that I created off of subaru's images and just be the only one with the hat or shirt or hoodie out there, but I decided to share this with other people cause I thought it was cool. If it's gonna make a big commotion and everyone tryin to make money off it then I'll just stop this thread and make a hat for myself. so If you guys wanna really make this an issue then I'll prob end up doin that... if not... don't get all jealous that you didn't think of it first and just get a freakin hat.... do you really wanna pay royalties to a company that already makes enough as it is selling cars and all the parts we need to buy to maintain these cars????? let alone the market they have now with the WRX and STI after market, come on guys, don't be such capitalists and lets just get some hats!
Someone mentioned it because that is what is legal. The SVX part of your had has a copyright on it. If you choose not to go by that, that is your choice.

As far as a piece of the action, this site costs money to run and usually when someone starts selling something here, they give a small piece of the profit to it. If you see the logos by the members names, it show that they have donated to the site and have helped it. Just a thought for you.

alright as far as I know from my multimedia classes that as long as 10% of the image is altered it is not violating a copyright, I may be wrong and could look it up if I really cared that much, but like sicksubie mentioned, something as minor as this subaru wouldn't waist their time. Also, I understand it costs money I do web design and have done a few commercial sites for people so I very well understand but honestly, a poor college student who had an idea that he wanted to share with others who attends one of the most expensive universities in the country (aka myself) would much rather put his minor profit if any toward paying off student loans... no offense... love the site but I have my own bills to pay.

Significant Technical Input Registered SVX Classic SVX
A far as SVX hats go, there are two designs which have been digitized and currently on file with Queensboro Shirt Company for quire a while.

The first one is the official Subaru SVX logo (the black or white lettering inside the red rectangle) This is the same one on the front of the owners
manual and all of the factory service manuals. It is also an exact copy of the official SVX hat originally offered by Subaru in their accessories collection






The second is the Alcyone SVX logo, which is the same SVX logo with the Alcyone lettering above. This is the same lettering as on the JDM brochures and the rear tail light panel.




I have had hat orders done before. The current special is a brushed twill unstructured cap with fully embroidered logo for $6.95 each with only a four hat minimum order.

http://www.queensboro.com/8400.html?cid=12


Their products are first class all the way, with a 10 year unconditional guarantee. I have had polo shirts, sweat shirts, denim shirts, briefcases and hats done over the years and am very happy with their products and superb customer service.

We were thinking of having a large order if both kinds done and selling them through the network store to make a small profit.

The end....

k I'm sick of people tryin to like knock what I was attempting to do and trying to undersell me or get any money I would potentially make off these so if you are still interested in going forward with this then I'd love for your support if not then please start your own thread. Anyone who choses to continue to support what I am doing please pm me to get further information as to the continuance of this venture. Thanks! not trying to step on anyones toes by this just thought it was a cool idea and wanted to share but I guess I'm creating a huge controversy, anyway hope you all enjoy your weekend and I look forward to hearing back from some of you.

Hey Johnybeas

Just thought I'd add a note to say nobody is trying to crap on your project. In the event that you were not aware of all the inner workings of this site I was just letting you know it was possible and thought you may want to be charitable and support the community that supports you. No need to get all defensive. The network has been selling stuff for years.

I agree. I have not seen anybody trying to shut you down. You are very defensive on any of your thoughts here. I don't know why, but you seem to get bent out of shape very easily. Just my opinion.

Like I mentioned before, this is a free site, but it does cost money to run and I was just pointing that out to you. Usually any body that uses this site is happy to give back to it because it gives so much to members here. It was not designed for you to make profit from projects that you come up with. I don't think you would make much anyway, but I wanted to clear that up.

I hope you read all of this and not just to the part that you didn't like and then react.

I've read all the stuff entirely every response, and I've even had a few friends read it as well to make sure I'm not over reacting. Even members of the network thought I was being attacked. I won't name names for sake that I don't wanna make this get blown out of proportion. I hate having lengthy discussions on computer because this does happen people misinterpret the way that people are saying things and feel like others are tryin to shut them down. I will give back to the site if I even make more than the cost of getting them made at all but the thing is I don't know how much I can even make off it. I'm trying to sell them to everyone for just as much as I am getting them for, I'm not tryin to make a business out of it. Anyway sorry that I misunderstood you guys and I hope that everyone will participate so that we can lower the cost of the hats. I have looked at a few more sites to try and find a lower cost vendor with a comparable product but I found lids to really offer supperior customer service ease of use and best overall product and options, so as it stands, a hat with embroidery on front and back is 32 without any charge for the set up, as of right now I've got 12 people in for it or so it seems.... if we get more we can eliminate the cost for digitizing all together otherwise we'll have to split it. So as of right now it's wicked expensive. If we only do embroidery on front it's like 9 bucks cheaper per hat. Also though the more people who sign up for the original buy in the bigger discount I can get yall on the hats so instead of like 32 per hat I can probably do something like 25 a hat plus digitizing if we cant get 36 people

One way of finding out who is in and what hat they want is to start a list.

#1 = BoBl
#2 = boxer6RWBhat
#3 = logoSVXWoB
#4 = subSVXBlBWoB

If you want to see these, look at post #1.

List screen name and what # hat you want and the number of hats

ex: ensteele 2 ea #2

1)
2)
3)

They are available right now, but we are setting up a retail store so it will be easier for you to see what is for sale and how much the stuff is. It will be here very soon.

Because we have started a new year, it is time again to give generously to your favorite SVX World Network. Yep, that would be us. When you give your donation, the logos will be put by your name for another year. The donation link is till there, but if you can't find it, it can be found here.

Thanks for your support.
