Haterist-

You are right, and I agree.  I just am getting tired of people jumping all over my nuts.  And let's be clear...he came right at me.

And I never fight over vests at the shopping mall, just shoes. :)

i been waiting for somone to say it, figured it would be SHM

for real


first off i saw that that war bird and such was posted twice and so was the comments on it, you only need to post stuff once to start

2nd we dont need to flant how much we give or dont give back to the website and toss anything in anyones face.

also people give feedback here and all over the forum, if you cant hanlde it dont post stuff.

i personally see and agree with points from both sides, but ether way this is going to far. end it...this is un-real. instead of working together to get a perfect vest (wich if you wanna be hard about it, nether of you happen to have)

tone it down some guys. only warning i can give

War Chief Adds: As I wrote in the other thread, this kind of thing should take place in private messages since it's essentially a conversation between two people.

Kartoon-
Again, you are right, and I apologize.  I'm just getting tired of people coming right at me on these boards in a rude fashion, and started giving it back. 

My bad.  :cry:

Now, to answer the valid questions posed-

Yes, It is done with a digital sew out.
Yes, it is fully embroidered and not twill.
Yes, it will have heat seal backing.
No, the rocker does not droop on the right side, it's just a bad photo, and I will update it soon.
And, I measured out our small vests and the 12" rocker does fit across the back just fine.

So I usually reply, "How are you doing Mr. Sithlord666!" or whatever their handle is.

Tim, Really looking foward to seeing how these fit and look on a few diff vests. You really nailed the skull, the eyes, the teeth, the lettering etc and am thinking if you will get rid of the slight wavyness of the black border and the 4 dots on the left side you will be the man.

Oh yeah, the dots on the left are actually a problem I had w/ photoshop.  I took the photo on a white background, and when I filled in the blue on photoshop, it overwrote that area.  It's actually very smooth.  That's just in the photo.

You asked for feedback, so heres a little constructive critcism.

Charllroots does have a point about the droopiness of the right hand side of your rocker.  Warriorcleons drooped, and if your guys made an exact (but larger) duplicate, its likely that yours droops as well.  Is it too late to get your guys to make adjustments?  As much as everyone (myself included) praised warriorcleons patch, it wasnt 100% accurate. If you could space the lettering out a little, that would be good.  Something simular to this.

I only have a basic skill in computer imagery, but i managed to knocked out this in my tea-break at work.

On the positive side; your warbird is a HUGE improvement.  The black border should easily hide the old stitch hole on my A1 vest when i eventually replace the patch.  If anyones worried about the size of the rocker, A1's rocker is 12 inch and fits perfectly on medium sized vests.
