Exactly. I only use high quality shirts and a printer that does high quality screen printing. I can adjust with them as I wish instead of being at the mercy of a non-flexible service. For example, on my last shirts I did a red classic Toyota logo on a black shirt. The red came out really vinyl feeling because they did a white under print. I asked about it and for these shirts there will be no white under print but a double red. So the red may not pop quite as much but the print will be soft and not shiny.

Yeah. At some point soon I'll be switching shopping carts to something that supports IE6.
As someone who's dipped his feet in web design, I ask you to please not. There is NO reason that someone can't have a standards compliant browser. If they can't upgrade IE, they can get Firefox, Chrome, or Opera.
Don't enable IE6 users!
That's why i'll be ordering once i get home and fire up firefox on my personal computer, rather than trying to fight IE6 at work.

You aren't talking about the Celica Red Dragon shirt, are you? I hope not. I want one of those, too, but i don't want it to be real vinyl-y and stiff and cracking later in life.

Nope... that one didn't get an under print either. Looks nice. It's the TEQ logo shirts that came out kinda goofy. The red and white colored shirts both look awesome but the black shirts with red ink are a bit shiny. Cool if you like that sort of thing though :)

That's going directly onto my Christmas list.
It will match the "Save the Manuals!" sticker stuck on my car that that other car mag sent me for free...

You should be able to use a CC through paypal without an account. Check the check out screen again. If the options really aren't there then I think there is a problem.
still no joy

Is anyone else having these issues of not being able to pay with a credit card?

I use printfection. Generally happy with them, especially since I am NOT interested in being in the fullfillment business, and they ARE nice shirts, but like CafePress, there's no money there. I think I make something like two bucks on a shirt.
And Ian, you know you don't REALLY have to support IE6.

Well... I don't HAVE to... but I do like money :) You should check out storenvy for a free cart and bandwagonmerch.com for printing. Both are local to KC.

Updated the site. Moved over to bigcartel. Doesn't look as good but that will change at some point. The important parts are it should work in all browsers, allows for very simple purchasing with credit cards via paypal and will hopefully yield better search engine results... most of that stuff is better for me than it is for you but I figured I'd let you all know anyway.

Have to use the www for the moment until godaddy gets its brains right.

The shirts are in and will all be shipping Monday. I had a hold up at the printer and just got them last night. I have to warn all of you who purchased that the red is pretty faded back. It looks kinda vintage this way actually but its not what I wanted.
I'll get a picture up later and email it out as well and make sure that everyone is ok with it. If you are not, I will gladly grant you a refund before I ship on Monday. I'll also be sending this out via email to make sure I cover everyone. There will be a discount code for significant savings on future orders as well for you folks who jumped on this early.
I'm still just getting started in this business and realizing that, like everything else, there's always more to it than you think. But I thank you all again for your support and orders and hope you'll stick with gearheadshirts.com as I've got some great new designs coming up that are focused on the auto-x and track dog community and I'm getting things right at the printer to make sure that what you see online is what arrives at your door.
Thanks again,
Ian

Thar she blows. After living with it for a half a day I'm not to upset with the color really. I think this picture is a little misleading because it really doesn't look that bright of red. But it does look pretty cool. Like I said, kind of a vintage look.
