Considering this for my black knight outfit for the first gathering at the seconds sale

If you want a black shirt, then I need to do a white outline around all the artwork (not just the blades) so it pops. (The original was designed for a white or light shirt/socks.) You want? LMK.

If you have the time. It is not that necessary but some may want it. Perhaps just a small highlight

OK folks, these files have been optimized for darker backgrounds. The red one is just for display, to see how it looks against a color. The one to give to the printer is the one with the "clear" background, then any color becomes the background color.

And if you want the organization's name to pop a bit more (against a dark color), here the name is reversed out. With a logo like this on a red shirt, I think the artwork says "gang" or "revolutionary" more than "noble organization"! So maybe a nice pale harmless-united-nations-blue would be more insipid and palliative.

I tried it against a black background and it lost a fair amount of detail. But I think it looks good against a dark grey...IMO.

On my hoodie, the lettering is a bit subdued but not that bad. The artwork is good though.

XL hoodie fits perfectly for a 6-1 240 lb guy. I could use maybe a XXL if this shrinks at all. It is nice.

When Fireman has them uploaded, they should be good to go. I'm sorry I didn't have these outlined versions to you earlier...while designing, I was only thinking about a white background. And I've never worked with "clear" elements before, so it's been a bit of a learning curve. Bah! Excuses! At MNOSD, we do not make excuses!! Thank you Fireman for making the artwork available on the site.
