Sick Thread's T-Shirt Contest Winners - Order Yours Now!

 Even better than that: sell NINE more designs from people who didn't even get prizes! Free designers! Everyone wins! (?)

 I believe it was in the contest rules or whatever. Something to the effect of, "if you submit an entry to this contest, you are giving pinkbike all legal rights to your work." If they didn't want the possibility of that happening, they should have read the rules closer.

But I think it's fair to say that pinkbike probably doesn't make a huge profit. Have you checked out the amount of visitors and material that is uploaded to this site? They must have some pretty hefty servers to pay for each month. So it's not like they are some big money hungry corporation that deserves to be hated on. Either buy a shirt that you like and help support your favorite biking site or try and be happy that they are trying to please a wider audience of customers.

The fact that there is more designs to pick from is a good thing, as a couple of the original designs were a bit questionable for the 15 and up age group.

 Partially right, in contracts between an adult and an individual under 18, adults are bound but underage individual may escape contracts at their option. The purpose of this is to protect minors from foolishly entering into contracts with crafty adults who would take advantage of them in the marketplace. In cases where someone has made a profit from said contract, the court in these cases may order restitution, damages, and discharge the contract. Damages are typically awarded on scale, meaning that they will give rewards based on the market value. Market value for a shirt design is $2500, plus 10% royalties on sales.

So in cases where the individual is a minor and Pinkbike has sold or created t-shirts, they could be held liable. Liable to the same extent that they could be found liable for damages for use of an image in the case of the design by rawf85 that utilizes a picture, if that image of the old bikers is not licensed. This may also be true for any images that use an unlicensed font for text in their design.

 Agreed. Two pass, the rest are kindergarten design.

 i guess the average user is younger than we thought, makes me wish i tried something, some of these are pretty simple minded

 ofcourse!

 Different people have different opinions on what they consider 'fashion'... Especially people who ride bikes. And imo, Stussy looking looks like shit. Obey and Volcom are not bad looking, especially for a skatebrand, but Stussy, meh.

 Biker wearing the skateboard clothing brands is gay. Thats all, have a nice day.

 Tell me about it, they didnt even do recorded post for my GoPro and it never turned up. Got my money back but epic fail on the recorded post bit.

 Mate, thats an utter shambles for you. Common sense would think they'd send something like that recorded... To be fair its not the fact that I haven't got my stuff yet...its more that no one has even bothered to let me know either by email or msg what is happening with it. Very poor customer service if you ask me. If they don't have the resources to provide basic customer service then no point selling items.

 jarb, you realise that life cycles was by way of pre-order? i got mine through today, so hopefully you'll get yours through soon.
but i agree, would be nice to have some communication with the pb team. kinda hard for them though due to so many users...

 Yeah I was well aware that it was a pre-order but it never materialised on the expected release date and the only way that I know what is going on is via pinkbike forums or chatter over the various bike websites I visit. My point being no actual direct response from the people who are selling the thing or taken my money, which I feel is the main let down. In my opinon it wouldn't take much to create a mail merge of the people who have paid for it and let them know about the progress of the order. Rant over......well. If you are from UK then hopefully I will get my copy soon also. Cheers

 you've got a fair enough point there man. could have done with some more (just some??) info from pinkbike.
im in south wales at the mo, with no snow, so depending on what the weather is like near you it might vary a bit.
and its absolutely class. so you've got much to look forward to.

 Pinkbike put main page articles on the main page for all folks to read that bought directly or indirectly from them - thus benefiting everyone that pre-ordered from anywhere. Thousands of DVDs were pre-ordered (not through PB) and we help the LC crew with shipping, but it is actually been a very difficult process that has been out of everyone's hands. The regular DVDs shipped out last week and some the week before - folks live all over the world and shipping varies. Yes pre-orders are trying, but you are showing support and the funding goes directly to the film makers, not a microscopic portion like when purchased elsewhere - jsut requires more patience on the end user end. Thanks for the support.

 cheers for the reply brule, definitely puts the scale of it in to perspective. thanks for getting everything sorted though. the film is amazing.

 The DVD has been shipping since last Friday. So all the pre-orders have been put in the mail and all new orders are shipped now!

 Oh ok thanks Karl. Still haven't received mine.... Just annoyed like everyone else

 And I pre-ordered it. Not a new order.

 my homie said it was more of an art piece, he was NOT stoked on it, so you might not be missing as much as you think...

 I've seen two premiere's and this movie is amazing. It's well worth it and I want my damn copy already! The discussion on whether it's art or bike porn is dead. If you're not into artsy movies you might not appreciate this movie. There's a lot of talking, slow-mo and nature shots. It's not Disorder. It's something different. I loved it and will promote it. Even if my DVD is M.I.A.

 They look pretty sick I have to admit.... I'd buy all of em!!! Don't know about the Jane though, I'm not a chick but I could try and get it to fit my figure.

 i was hoping for better, but still pretty good!

 there was defintaly some better ones out there but there is some good ones here too i would get the montage best one here

 if you bought them all it would be $240...

already ordered the one 2nd from top

drop in, rock out...or...
flop out, cock in

 what about Tim Lakes?

 and what about BlindBoy1
www.pinkbike.com/photo/5786066
wanted one of these so bad

 lol thats actually brilliant

 but the competition is over.

 Now my lady friend can rock my favorite web site

 If you want one of the shirt designs that didn't win so bad ask them for a copy of the design and have a local shop make you one. Or....have them put their design up on a site where you could order the shirt from (there are a TON of websites that do this). Complaining in the comments now isn't going to help you get one of those shirts you want so bad. Being smart and proactive about it however will. Sheesh.

 or for Tim Lakes design (what i posted above as a joke) use a white t-shirt and a paint brush thats what i did

 Where's the COOL STORY BRO shirt? I would have bought one.

 If you wanna order mine, drop me a maill...

 COOL STORY BRO. Get a shirt here.
www.cafepress.com/csbcoolstorybro

 They look shit @ the cool story bro, sizings pathetic. For tom666 and other uk users, my lbs should be making a load after xmas, ill let you know

 cool beans? how much are we talking?

 15-20 quid, so average price for tshirt, will be on decent qualtiy shirts too, that have a proper fit, not the cheap rectangles of cloth with a hole in the top

 the shirts actually arent bad quality for the pricier ones, but yeah the max size is a 10" by 10" square, kinda stupid. gets the point across though.

 fairplay. I want one.

 this is weird if you click on the photo it only has a few faves makes no sense i thought "We" vote on the winner

 So why are they so expensive? 20 bucks for a t-shirt come on man...
