I'm getting closer to selecting a turn-key e-commerce provider for iKC stuff, including our T-Shirts. If you have followed the iKC T-Shirt discussion you know I want a company to handle all aspects of taking the order (different shirts/sizes, colors, etc), secure online payment, fulfillment and shipping directly to you.

I have narrowed it down to two providers and am testing them now.

Here is where I am- I need ideas and suggestions for artwork and concepts for iKC products. The e-commerce sites already have products for us and we just put our "messages" on them for our members to order. Things like mugs, keychains, golf shirts, sweatshirts, t-shirts, caps, buttons, etc, so if you have an idea for our stuff, let's see it.

Please understand, if you submit an idea, you give it royalty free for use of the idea or image and forfeit any rights to such. 

I'd appreciate your help with this. I see offering many options to give our members lots of choices of messages, wording, pictures, artwork, etc.

I'm hiring a designer to take these ideas/artwork and making them work for our items and depending on the costs of this, might only rollout a limited number of different "messages" to begin with.

Don't worry about having an image if you have an idea, then lets have it. They don't have to be iKC related either. I'll probably add an iKC logo on all items if there is room and it is cost effective, but can see some shirts with general knife collecting messages, like "I'm a knife collector," "Get the point," "Card-carrying member of ECD Club," "Knife is Good," I love my computer cause all my knife friends live it in"  I think you get the idea.

Please let's keep our ideas clean, OK?

If you have questions about what we're looking for here please email me at scott@iknifecollector.com

How about

iKC So sharp, it'll split your vision!
sure would Kyley
You "silver" tongued devil you.

(Or would that be 1095, 440A, D2, ATS 34...?)
here's my idea Slogan: "iKnife Collector, get the Point?"
Yeah, that's good, Rick. Thanks.
Hi everyone, I thought a good idea to spread the word about our club and also create a stronger bond between its members would be to create patches for either leather or denim vests. The top patch could be iKNIFECOLLECTORS.COM and the bottom patch where you are from, either country or state or province. Take a look at the kind of patch I mean and the price is very reasonable.

( forget about the MC part)and finally I'm sure we have excellent artists in the club that could design a great patch for the middle of the vests that represent accurately the group.

well that's my idea..especially to create a stronger bond amongst members.
no slogans in mind, but just throwing it out there. bumper stickers would work great imo, they're cheap and spread the word. also should keep ppl away from my car wen they see i collect knives :)
The vests are a little spendy.
True, but they also advertise that you might have valuables worth stealing in your home.
How about:
"Disrespect Me, Disrespect My Knife."
or "Collectable Knives - Utility and Beauty All in One."
or "My Knife Will Never Misfire."
or "My Knife Is Quick."
or "My Favorite Knife Is The One I Carry."
Not at all expensive and if we order several it will be even more inexpensive or many of the members probably already have either a leather vest or denim jacket..so I don't think it would be expensive at all.
