I beg to differ, being a designer myself Ive dealt with online and in house printing studios on a few occassions. Each place had pretty good quality stuff. The online ones tended to be more expensive because it deals with delivery and very broad range of jobs. Ones you may find on high streets do high quality clothing for as low as a 10er for each Tshirt. Not quite sure how much experience youve had with various sites, but I think you're wrong, unless youve tried to look at the cheapest alternatives.
As for the designs, I personally dont like them. Firstly, the Tried and Testec theme isnt great. The grey from the JPGs could vary on print and be barely visible. The spelling is simply wrong, and while I know that its a brand and its name of the label, if you wear it walking down a street people are going to think you're either retarded or been mugged off by someone...
The female one I simply dont like. I dont like the cut out effect as it distorts what it actually is and generally makes it look like a low quality bit of art. Shes made harder to see by the lack of face and the amount she's covered by the wording. The image also cuts off at the bottom which looks very amateur.
Thats from a design point of view. From a business point of view, having Tid deal with the printing and stuff sounds like very low risk stuff. Assuming Tid deal with a company such as The Tshirt Studio, Each hoodie is priced at 25 plus a small delivery fee. If the resale is 35 and Tid take a bit as fee's for printing and processing the order, you make a pretty small profit off them, right? I'm not sure how many people will buy gear from a small digital label, but if theres no risk of large costs coming out of your own pocket, I guess its a decent venture.

hmmmmmm, surely it would be more beneficial to the human race if olly decided to turn his head towards things that mattered - rather such trivial things to pick apart publically.
I mean, Were in a recession - surely its more practical to voice an opinion about whether Germany should be bailing out Greece to stop it defaulting..or even whether allowing catholic priests to marry would help with the situation in the church...rather than complaining the logo clipping on a jumper
its so easy to have opinions on small, inconsiquential stuff like this
like, If its a personal selfless mission to help people improve then you perhaps you shouldn't be running people through the mill online *publically* - because thats counter-productive - you might be "helping" by pointing things out, but by doing it publically just makes them look bad and you look like a jerk for "exposing" whatever faults you found publically - REAL help would be emailing them and saying "hey i noticed this.."
that would be a much nicer and more respectful way of doing it..
otherwise it just looks as though you're just picking things apart for the sake of it.
but yeah, many more important things in life to be worrying about

its a forum, im offering feedback. Thats allowed right? Unless this is just idle spam.
Im not having a dig at the label, I like the label, but nevertheless its not a big label, its a small label in a small genre...

Im not offended, if I posted my stuff onto a forum I'd expect and probably look for the same kind of feedback.
Else, I wouldnt post it here at all.

olly ;)..you say feedback, I say buisness talk that doesn't belong in the "buy and sell" section..fair enough if he had asked for feedback like he did in the last thread - but as he didnt ask for feedback and you've deliberately posted in this one as well as the one where he actually asked for feedback...it just looks like you're trying to damage his venture...
clearly he's moved on from the design/production part of it/feedback part of it, hense this thread.
I'm allowed to give an opinion right?? ;)

I dont know how much business you'll get off a crappy old forum like this lol, id just facebook it every ten minutes, personally. Its fruitless trying to shift free tracks on here, let alone 35 hoodies.
I can see your point with Go Tell Yo Momma, or Twista, but they are very obvious mistakes. GTYM makes use of American accent, Twista is just a very obvious take on Twister. Tryed is a common spelling mistake that kids make at school every day, so its not as obvious as a gimmick.
Its not disimilar to any other typo or mistake, which is why I think its a little flawed. Im not trying to damage a venture, just gave an opinion on what I saw. Maybe when I put my music on here I should start a separate feedback thread every time

Think u r being picky now mate.
I give up trying to explain myself about my label n if anyone picks at it the ill just let them get on with it. People clearly like the label as the tracks sell they know its tryed n tested n most people have even said it looks better with the logo the way its spelt. Others have done it so ill let you hate the fact its spelt tryed
