Well, having placed the largest order for the old t-shirts, I lost a
veritable bundle. I also brokered the payments for several of our European
comrads and wound up eating the exchange rate differences. Before I make
the leap again, I'd like to get a closer look at the image. I checked the
cafepress site that you mentioned in your original post, but the image is
too small to really see (even after zooming in). I would be particularly
interested in how and if my amman iar translation was rendered (couldn't
find it in the cafepress online image). Could you point us to website where
Nicole uploaded the images?
Thanks,
David
