Vista print will offer a groupon every once in a while for $17, you get $70 worth of product with 30% off all regular prices. We got over 10 shirts with one groupon. We did pay for shipping.

Vistaprint seems to be fine with everything. I have seen many Disney and trademarked images on their products.

kaseyC, If you would like to keep updating this post, I have the website set to link to that post like I did for Binkytell's post about organizers.

Once we get the new thread settled away, we can move to there.

I think I've got all the organizers updated on the website and there's only a couple of outstanding items.

If organizers could have a look at their pages if you haven't recently, we should get them updated to reflect the current situation as everyone's getting so excited the questions are flying in. Many of the pages have not been touched in many months and just have the original information.

I've given edit access to a few organizers and some people have been making their own changes. I can certainly give access to anyone else that has a Google Sites account (easy to get) and it's fairly easy to make changes - I'm making them after all, how hard can it be? Or I can continue to make changes - just tell me what to do.

I'll take pics of how my shirts turned out when they arrive - uploaded the image that was my favorite as the graphic on the back (large) and the front has a Mickey Head with my name and Disney underneath that in the cruise logo font. The kids shirt I just did front only with the large graphic and their name on a Mickey Head. The only negative is that each person who uploads an image has to pay $5 per image to get it into their account (or less if on sale) but can make any amount of tshirts. I tried letting people order from my account last time and it was a mess because each phone rep had a different story. Yes they could, no they couldn't, they need my password, etc.

Heck, I even tried the customized Tervis tumbler with the same image VistaPrint is doing on tshirts and have had it rejected twice now - I even took off the Cowboy Mickey and the word "Disney" is not on there at all. I guess those three overlapping circles look like a "Mickey Head" or something that have flags on them

ETA: Look at the bottom of this post as to how we tried to do it last time

I don't mind the $5 upload fee. It'd be great if it wasn't on there, but my guess is that it's minimal for overall cost of the shirts and most of us won't mind that. Less headache all around. I just think it'd be super fun if we all had some shirts to commemorate the sailing. (And I'm starting to worry that ValBob may have dropped out and might not be doing the other shirt.)

Anyway, I'd love if we could agree on a logo (and frankly, I love a bunch of the ones that you already did) and then those of us that want them could order them. I also want a Pirate one since we aren't packing costumes.

I know, right? This has been so much fun these last few weeks. And it's making me even more excited!

I just always order tshirts for our family or make our own. On the WBTA we had some who were technically challenged so it was easier to devise a plan for them to call VistaPrint, make an order over the phone using a product code from my account. Then we ran into snaggles. Otherwise the easiest way is for someone to download the image from our cruise website that they want on a tshirt, create an account at VistaPrint, upload the image and order whatever they want... tshirts, magnets, pens, etc.



VistaPrint has been fine for the other 25+ Disney shirts that were ordered from my account over the years First Disney Trip, MVMCP, etc shirts. Literally that is what everyone used - uploading and tweaking (can put your own name on it) then ordering. We'll see how this order goes I placed Saturday if their rules have changed. To me they do turn out better than the Hobby Lobby tshirts plus AmyMickey iron-on, but with Hobby Lobby we can vary the tshirt colors. (We had the same design in November but each of us had a different colored tshirt)

I don't want anyone to have headaches about doing these awesome things for all of us. I think that we need to figure out a way to order our own, even if it's $5 more.
