    Added my order :)

    I'll put my name down but will confirm order once we know supplier/design/cost


  • Registered Users Posts: 255 ✭✭ruffmut


    I have my name down also for SS and LS jersey and winter jacket but will confirm order once we know supplier/design/cost

    I'm back in now colour change is back in play. :D

    I like the sounds of the Lime Green/Black. Orange/Black

    Maybe replace the pink and white with lime green and black writing. Replacing the black with LG might be harsh on the eye. :eek:


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,993 ✭✭✭youcancallmeal


    I'm down for a XL LS jersey. Lime green sounds nice but I'm happy with whatever

    Added a SS jersey and a winter jacket to spreadsheet.

    Deffo change in colour Green instead of black sounds good but so does the pink black reversal and green pink combo....

    I think yiz are making a big mistake taking out the pink :D but then I'm biased.

    Saying that an all black version would be nifty.

    Fair play to stetyrrell for taking on the pain and suffering of doing the order.

    You might want to run a poll to decide on the colour change. Also any changes need to be sent to the mod and DAV to ensure Boards are happy with it before you press the button.

    I have the original artwork files if anyone needs them.

    Replace the pink with blood red? Not a major departure (so it still looks like a boards jersey), but doesn't offend those who aren't manly enough to wear hot pink.

    I suggested something similar on the last order. I'd go with that

    If you could send me the files Daragh that'd be great, I'll pm you my email address.

    Plan is to set up a seperate thread with a poll for the colour change, once we get the designs done up for each suggestion, just so as other boardsies know what we're doing and don't get extremely jealous when they see the new snazzy jerseys on the road ;)

    As it's only a colour change and not a new design, will Dav et al. still have to sign off on it? Might want to drop him a PM either way.


  • Registered Users Posts: 451 ✭✭Paranoid Mandroid


    I added my order for

    Long sleeve Jersey: XL
    Bib Shorts: XL

    Much appreciated.

    I think this would look great:

    I have added my order and a counts row to the google doc. Want me to photoshop up some colours?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,332 ✭✭✭valleyoftheunos


    Just a suggestion but for the Colour what about changing the black to a gray and the pink to a dayglo yellow, orange or pink? Or perhaps even a turquoise?

    I think some of the suppliers have programs that allow you to generate the design easily enough


  • Registered Users Posts: 719 ✭✭✭flatface


    OK did some quick shop colour changes to give an idea. Think it may need a poll!

    I quite like the original to be honest, how about just changing the shoulder or some detail so that each year it gets more and more pink, so we can gently ease towards a full pink jersey?

    If anyone's interested in doing the designs, pm me with an email address and I'll send them the files and a list of the proposed colour changes, and we'll get a seperate thread going.

    Can you do one with blood red?

    Pink base, change previous pink sections to black.

    What about Boards.ie blue as a base?


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,648 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    Lime green wins for me


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,668 ✭✭✭String


    I like the idea of keeping the boards blue color as the secondary, so the logo is the same as on the website etc.

    Also like the tourquise!


  • Registered Users Posts: 198 ✭✭Cyclewizard


    Turquoise is very nice but they're all pretty good to be honest. Impressive


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,609 ✭✭✭✭Squidgy Black


    Right so I've pm'd the powers that be about a colour change, and once we get the go ahead I'll start a new thread with the designs and a poll. Great stuff flatface, thanks again.

    Carvalho replied to me in the mean time. They're closed for the first two weeks in August, so the plan is to set a deadline on our end for the 3rd week in August. This includes payment, which will be set up soon. So we can expect the jerseys around mid-September I assume.

    They've also sent me an order form/price list, but it's a macro in excel and I can't open macros on this laptop, so I'll have to wait until tomorrow when I'm home.
