I'll get to it as soon as I can. It'll be another week. It's not a hard change at all, but typing this sentence just consumed all the free time I have this week if ya know what I mean.

Hi Mark,

OK, as requested, the 20B version is in the album at
http://bob-white.com/tshirt
Poor aviators need all the help they can get. :)

The 16X and 20B versions are in the "George's T-Shirt" album. The
turquoise sky in the AI/AH in George's design is the default color from
his autocad package. In the other variations I used a bluer color. If
anyone wants the bluer sky, I can easily do it, or it shouldn't be to
difficult to change with any graphics package.

If anyone is wondering why George is sending me the images first, I
convert his dxf image to a jpg image and do a little touch up needed
because of the conversion. Most of the t-shirt printers can't use the
dxf file. The jpg images George gets from his autocad package are about
1200 pixels wide. I'm making an image that is about 1800 pixels wide
which I consider to be the minimum resolution needed for a smooth
looking image. I would like to have 2400 to 3600 pixels wide, but
can't do it because of the limitations of my CAD program.

Just as a reminder, be sure to download the "Full Resolution" image.
Most of them are around 250K.

I have received an email from the Australian t-shirt place (GYOshirt)
and should expect my shirt to ship in about 15 days.

Dwayne, do you want to add any of these images to your Cafe Press web
site?
