I'm trying to setup my personal site to sell shirts, and I'd love to have some photos of blank shirts, or if that isn't possible, have the html color codes for the different color shirts.

The main problem I think is that I want people to accurately see the difference between Sport Grey and Charcoal Grey for example.

Hi terry,

it's difficult to show an actual representation of the shirt compared to a mockup image. We attempt to get the colours as close as possible.

Here's our colour options on our sample webstore:

I'm not looking for a mockup - just a photo of the actual shirt. What I mean is that the photos appear to be of a white shirt that has been colored with photoshop, like these:

http://webstore.tshirtgang.com/products/10.png

With the same jagged / pixelated edges, and wrinkles in the exact same place.

My goal is to have a nice color picker, and I have the option of using either an html color code, or a photo of the shirt. Like this:




FYI - your webstore seems to be missing about 6 colors. I was getting the available colors from here:

One other thing - do the available colors change ever / very often? I'm less worried about the introduction of new colors as I am the removal of current ones.

Hi Terry,

You can see all of our available colours on our homepage, too. You can flip through the colours and see all of our blank shirt colours. We have already tried to match the actual shirt colours to the mockups on our front page.

Shirts do change frequently, and sometimes without warning. We do use a shirt supplier who may discontinue an item with little notice, but often offer a new style that replaces the existing one.

We will not discontinue an item from sale without ample warning. So far we haven't had any major issues where a supplier discontinued an item and didn't offer a new style to replace it.

Colours will also not change without prior notice.

Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions.

Having said that, it would make life easier to get photos of the missing colors, like sport grey, royal blue, purple, red, tan, burgundy, black ringer, and red ringer. Those are missing from your demo site.

I tried to simply go to the main page, and do screen grabs of the shirts (after uploading a clear pixel), then removing the color background, but it didn't turn out as nice as I'd hoped.

Now please don't take my comment as a 100% guarantee but I've found that the majority of men's shirts sent out are Alstyle Aparrel Style 1301. With that in mind check out this site for the different images of the shirt colours. It more accurately shows how the shirt looks like, without having those jagged/pixelated edges and what not. The only problem with this site is that the images are quite small.

Can anyone tell me if the shirt that is listed as "navy" but shows "royal blue" is actually "navy" or "royal blue?" Navy looks more like black shirt while the image that comes up is like a royal blue. Please help. Thanks.

Can you elaborate on this, please? Where are you seeing a navy shirt that looks like a royal blue shirt?

The Navy shirt comes up with a very royal blue illustration.

That would be the navy template that we use. Our royal blue is much lighter than that.

So you are saying that the actual Navy is much darker than shown in the shirt image? Is it closer to the small square on the order form? I am confused by your answer.

No, that is not what I'm saying. The navy shirt, the physical item, looks like the preview we generate.
