If this was an order through an online bike shop, we'd be flaming them on every message board and calling CC companies. Because it's George, we cut him a huge amount of slack.
The least he can do is give us an update every week even if nothing is happening. Especially those people who have never ordered custom jerseys before and don't know the process involved.
We're all investors in this venture and the shareholders demand a quarterly report!

They have almost all the order info except for the dirty girl ones (traci had some changes on that). Here are what they'll look like (art proofs). They did a pretty good job at taking the artwork and adapting it to their template ...

Very good point, steve. Thanks to everyone for the slack! I have lagged some on this cause of other stuff going on but will try to at least give regular updates.

I'll take that as a compliment . . . I think

The worst is being the family 'computer guy' and then EVERYBODY, even aunts and uncles you never hear from, want you to come over and fix their [windows] computers. Just can't say no. And feel even worse charging them fair rate

I used to have this problem as well. I partially solved it by showing up at events for my "friends" and family wearing a t-shirt that read "No, I will not fix your computer". http://www.thinkgeek.com/tshirts/frustrations/388b/ It's quite liberating. I highly recommend it.

Cool, but what does that mean in terms of time line for delivery?

Not sure, but if it's going to be that long, I might want to switch to the next size up!

In process. I ordered what I could in terms of extras in case anybody who didn't order wants one.

I certainly want one...so please let me know when they come, or add me to the "extra" list!

What extras are going to be available and what are the prices?


Sorry I didn't notice a price when I skimmed the 12 pages.
