Now is the time to renew your ZR-1 Net Registry Membership.

We held off on announcing the renewal call until the 2011 t-shirts were ready, but there have been delays in the production and handling of the shirts.

I am confident that the shirts will be ready very soon so it is time to renew.

I know everyone is interested in getting the 2011 Registry shirt, so I would like to explain the delay. In order to cut cost to the Registry and reduce the workload on the person who had to ship all of the shirts in previous years, we are working with a new shirt printing company and we are implementing a fulfillment service to economically handle the mailing of the shirts. Of course all of these functions have to be tied into the operation of the on-line store.

I apologize for the delay. We are trying to keep value up and cost down.

Thank you for your patience.

Jim,

Nice to see the financial reports, the website turning around, and all the communication from you and everybody on the new board.

The shirts are no big deal when they get delivered (at least to me anyway) but can you show us the artwork?

Thanks.

It's too cold to wear a T shirt right now anyway.
But the warm weather is coming, looking forward to the 2011 T shirt;)

Frank,

Great looking shirt!!!!!!!!!! Also thanks for doing this for the club.....

Not many know that Frank saved the club at least $750 for not charging the Registry for the design, as was done in the past. The previous shirts were awesome, but we had to pay a $750 setup fee every year.

Thanks for saving us money and for the new shirt design! Also can't wait for your new polo shirts and jackets you are making. Put me down for one of each!

:cheers:

Great job Frank looks great!

We were paying $750 a year for shirt design?
That was a rip off.
Glad that's over and done with!

Great looking shirt! And it's nice to see the general design change.

However, what exactly do you mean? You mean we paid some T-shirt company to set up the shirt printer with the design? Or we paid someone who just created the design $750, i.e. paid them for designing it?

If the latter, that is pretty shocking. I could see compensating someone for the design/their time, sure (though not necessarily that much money). But after the first year, the design was just a color variation on the same thing. It should at least have been cheaper than the first time.

That said, I don't think people should have to work for free. Frank certainly put some time in, and if he needed to buy any sort of design software or anything, that should absolutely be paid for by the club. And if you compensate him for his time, I'd certainly consider it money well earned with a great shirt design. :cheers:

As a small note, it doesn't actually say "ZR-1 Net Registry" on the shirt. Is that intentional? Or just for aesthetics?

Why do the new T shirts say ZR-1 Registry??

It sounds like it was an oversight/accident. Still a great looking shirt, though.

03-03-2011, 05:15 PM

The new run of shirts has .NET added on the front.

Can you let us know why there are now 2 versions of this shirt, and why some of us are sporting the name of a club that went belly-up 13 years ago?

Jesus Christ man, now I'm starting to see what Frank meant when he was initially reserved about running for a board position. If you do anything visible, you'll get a bunch of **** for it.

It seems fairly clear that there are two versions of the shirt, because the first one was in error.

Edit: Actually it seems some of the posts in this thread have disappeared. So perhaps it's not as obvious that it was a mistake as it once was.

per MoM thru FU "the .net shirts are to be ordered from the registry store." I would put a note saying you want the .net shirt, if that is what you want.

I renewed a long time ago and I have yet to receive anything that looks like the 2011 shirt. I'd settle for the first one at this point.

Roy, I just sent an email to the Membership Dir to see what happen to your package.

Thanks,
