Hello all, We are developing the PMBA riding jersey and we want anyone and everyone who has the ability to submit a design. Chris Hunter threw this design together in an hour and it's a great start. It may be hard to conceptualize from the template, but I think you can imagine it.
This is the template to use:
http://www.customsublimation.com/index.asp?pageID=miscellaneous&btnSubmit=ByFileID&cboFileID=4909&cboFileCategoryID=1169
Note that once we have the design you can order any type of jersey you want, like short sleeve, long sleeve, tight, loose, etc...
Please use this thread to submit your design. Let's see em!!!

Will the rear pocket be big enough to carry a glock and a forty?

Okay, maybe I am really computer illiterate, but how do you make the jersey?
The template is in PDF format. How do you copy and paste into that?
Or is there a way to do it through the link that Lou put up?

The proper way would be to open the PDF in Adobe Illustrator and then create a new layer or layers for your art. Alternatively, for comping purposes, you can open the PDF in Photoshop and rasterize it at a decent resolution. (1000px wide or higher) and mock up your art. If you are doing it for printing Illustrator is def. the way to go, but sometimes its easier to work on your ideas in Photoshop and then redo the finals in Ill.

Yeah, Creating the template properly will require the use of Adobe Illustrator and the use of Clipping Masks.
You use the templates as your clipping mask for your design.
Here's a tutorial on how to do that will adobe illustrator:

Definitely still interested. I just haven't had a life outside of work the last couple weeks to work on anything. Hope to get back at it soon. Anyone else got an attempt in the works?

So we have a general idea of the jersey design and there has been some discussion amongst the board whether we are actually going to order these things.
So do we still have a lot of interest?
I know that I'm in to get a few. Depending on what the final cost will be. We may take orders or we may just make them available in the store depending on the amount of interest.

No way Pete! You must buy sight unseen.
Just kidding. This is the general idea, but not set in stone. The REI logo is going to be removed.

I'd most likely buy at least one to support PMBA, maybe more than one depending on the design and final price.

PS and we need several cuts, for DH cut and for XC cut.

Yeah Tom blind dates never really worked out for me either. 
Looks like a good start!
I know a graphic designer who might be able to lend her expertise but she might be too busy, I'll find out in the next few days.
