You could always put the Pacu on the back of the shirt. So people could see how large they can get.

Here's the thing, they're all great ideas, but when you start to add things on the back the shirt needs to be run through twice, which ups the cost... I'm trying to keep it simple, also the shirts will be offered in almost any color you want, but colors simply... well cost more LOl a dollar more for light colors, two for dark colors... but it's still in the prototype stage so I ask that you all be patient and keep throwing ideas out!
At any rate... We got rained out today so I've edited the text a bit, but haven't gotten the picture options back from the person helping with that... But here's the text..... The oscar is going to be a picture of one of the tiger oscars that was a rescue and has since been adopted... The one still in the picture was my beloved "Oscar", she was 11 when she went onto the great fish bowl in the sky... Thought it'd be cool to honor her by putting her on the shirt but I can't find a clear or big enough picture of her...

Opinions?
Not to mention the shirt wouldn't be big enough to show the true size of a pacu! And in my opinion pacus are...well...ugly, so no pacu on the shirt LOL If things start looking up for MFR then different shirt designs will be made with different fish on them. For example I'd love to do a true to scale RTC wrapping around the whole shirt.... but that's expensive LOL It'd be cool though.... A clown knife would look good, so would dats and p.bass.... all in due time kids...all in due time...

$15 bucks donation get you a shirt. how much $ out of the 15 goes to the cause? is it free shipping? these shirts are pre-made and in stock or batch orders?

I mean when people donate to a building they usually get a plaque recognizing their generosity Not like a free car. For every $1M donation. I think the name posted on the website is better than a T-shirt. It shows that people really believe in what you do even without the freebie shirt.

Exactly... I'll also have them available at shows and auctions too. Not to mention... not a whole lot of people have doanted so it'd be quite the short list and I need to generate $$ as I'm way way in the hole. I'm not going to make a lot of $$ for the cause from the shirts ,but I definately want to get the word out. And it's been suggested that most people DO want something for donating, and not everyone wants their name in a world wide website...
Some will like this design:
Some will not.... You can please some of the people some of the time but you can't please all the people all the time.
The first installment of the shirt will have these three fish on it. While it's available on my site there's going to be a pole for people to vote as to what specific species will be on the second installment. Once that's decided there's going to be a contest for the photo of said fish... The person that wins will get a free shirt. And while that one's available another pole will go up and so on and so on. Every shirt that's created will be available in multiple colors and sizes to attempt to satisfy EVERYONE (insert evil laugh here)
I'm trying, I really am, but if something doesn't happen soon My doors are going to have to shut, and I really don't want to do that... People need educated, fish need rescued and re-homed...... unfortunately I'm not a millionare and I can't do it all myself. If i won the lottery you bet I would!
Incidently the shirts will be made to order, because.... again, I'm not a millionare
