I know using CSS isn't as nice an option as having it through the interface, but it did come from the official Spreadshirt blog, that's where I found the selectors suggested (other people wanted to hide the colorpicker too), and they provide the CSS override area inside the shop settings.

This is a new feature they released after you got an answer from them that it wasn't possible to control the product-color combinations. At least they listened to user feedback and have done something about it, even if it's not perfect.

We can still use your all-purpose design for product categories, and maybe only a couple of individual products with the original logo without alterations?

I know Chris that thin font is notorious to treat like that for all backgrounds, but I thought your superpowers would find the perfect solution :D Maybe the new variable font-width feature could help here? To make it a bit bolder, then the contrasting outline wouldn't drown it? Not likely, but I had to throw it out there, you'll know better what to do with it :)

Jabier, your third suggestion can't work, because if you remove background,
and there is no contrasting offset, the drawing can't work on both white and
black t-shirts. If the letters are black, you won't be able to see them on a
black t-shirt. That was the whole point of adjusting the logo.

BTW I forgot to add - Spreadshirt settings:

I was able to hide color pickers from product pages, and from the product
list pages! This means that the only color available for purchase will be
the one you choose as default color when setting up the product.

So if you choose pink color as default for a set of t-shirts, and upload
design that fits with that background, people will be able to buy only the
pink t-shirt with that design.

If you want also that same design on light-blue t-shirts, you upload the
design again, choose t-shirt products, and set default color to light-blue.

That is how we can use a different design for black t-shirts. So we've
solved that problem of not having the control over the product background.

There can still be quirks, for example, if you choose product groups, and
set default to gray, and if one product from the group doesn't come in that
color, then they set it to some near color, but that near color can be
black, which is not what we'd want. But we can again use CSS to hide the few
offending products or be more picky when choosing product categories.

It's good enough I think to set up a small number of products and designs,
and release the shop officially into the public. After that we can look out
for other options (shops).

Great work!

Some sugestions:

* Make a option with only letters withour background in "draw fereely".

* Try a alternative to a simple offset of perimeter, maybe whole in a
circle or star or some kind of badge or exploding shape to inverse,
keep as simpler as you can, only logo and circle/star/badge. Maybe the
cirle can be a cirle gaussian.

* Remove background from draw freely

You undertand me?

Regards.

Hi folks. To solve the problem with spreadshirt bringing in too
many
options for each design, I've made a series of designs, ONE of
which
will be the design to go on the spreadshirt store.

So... please choose. :) (Note that each design is shown on a black
shirt and white shirt so you can see what the same design looks
like
on both.

Link to samples here:

Designs are numbered 1 - 5
