VFA-103guy Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 (edited) Hey, if your shirts come in 3XL, I'll get one! Don't mind paying a little extra if it's helping wounded warriors.. Well, I guess I could lose a few punds and get 2XL. :lol: Edited September 28, 2011 by VFA-103guy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks so much for taking the time to check out our site! This graphic was actually designed from an awesome picture my wingman "Sammy" took - I have it framed on my 'farewell to the squadron' plaque. Glad you like it, it is my favorite as well! - Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Janissary Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 You have some very nice designs there. The art work is quite handsome. The only thing that I thought could be slightly different (and I am writing this as you are open to feedback) is that perhaps the word 'clothing' could be omitted from the logos in the future? CloudSurf by itself is quite cool, catchy and mystical I think. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TomcatFanatic123 Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Oh, I'm definitely in for some of those shirts! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HOLMES Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Hello Cloudsurf. Had a long look at your site and I LOVED IT....I think you may have another customer in ME too.. Great job on the website design too...LOVE the Tee shrits and I agree with Janissary that if you omitted the word clothing I think it would be intriguing and mysterious.... Bookmarked for future use.. THANK you. HOLMES Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cloudsurf Posted September 29, 2011 Author Share Posted September 29, 2011 Welcome on ARC! Thank you f12aaa! I am so glad to be on this forum. Love your painting - did you do this? Looks amazing! Thanks to your feedback and the others here at ARC, I have decided to send the first 14 posters a free shirt from our website www.cloudsurfclothing.com - please let me know which design and what size you would like - thanks so much for supporting the F-14 and our new website, we really appreciate it! - Dave *I am counting you as poster #7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CloudSurf by itself is quite cool, catchy and mystical I think. Hey Janissary! Thank you so much for the interesting comment - I have been thinking about it all day. The reason we decided to put the entire name "Cloudsurf Clothing" on the shirts was because we were a new company and we wanted to help brand the new name. BUT, I really like the possibility of shortening the logo for a few shirt designs. Was there any shirt you thought it would look particulary good on? Please let me know if you have time! Thanks to your feedback (LOVE YOUR IDEA!) and the others here at ARC, I have decided to send the first 14 posters a free shirt from our website www.cloudsurfclothing.com - please let me know which design and what size you would like - thanks so much for supporting the F-14 and our new website, we really appreciate it! - Dave *I am counting you as poster #8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MarioK Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Great stuff.. Do you send international? It's kinda hard finding cool stuff in Croatia, and there's a boat load of friends who would like some of your shirts Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IrishGreek Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Cloudsurf, I too like the designs, and I understand your wish to get the 'brand' out there. However, like a couple others have said, I think the images with just the Cloudsurf name by themselves are much nicer. You could do the full name without the graphic on the sleeve as I have seen others do, which would put the name on the apparel as well. Just my 2 cents. John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
