NYVC stickers

Thu, 08/12/2010 - 8:17pm by schmalz

We finally done it! We've sold out! Or at least we're trying to. We now have merchandise! Stickers to be precise, so now you can add our site's name to your steed or to your wheels or to any other item that requires NYVC co-branding. We're starting small with stickers, but if this works out, and we get on a "merch" roll, we may move up to other thing like water bottles, hats, or even coffins—just like KISS!

We don't have a fancy fulfillment office yet, but if you want a sticker or two, email me schmalz@nyvelocity.com, and like any deal involving illicit merchandise, I will give you instructions on how to pay and get your stickers. (Hint: it involves PayPal.) The recommended minimum donation is $2, but that's just a suggestion—feel free to give as much as you want, as all proceeds go to keep the lights on at NYVC.

Actual sticker is not blurry, just glossy, die cut and cool. And please don't try to get my bank account number from the background. And I know the picture is crappy, who am I, Andy Shen?

is right.

Piece>Throw up>Tag

A piece is the most elaborate, the throw up is usually your Tag written in big bold letters, filled with color but usually not- perhaps even given a slight 3D effect, and then a tag is you taking your paint marker, and scribbling your tag (your name) on a wall. the back of a Zephyr jersey has a tag on it.

anyone who's thinking of buying this, remember that it's akin to telling the world that you religiously follow The Real Housewives of New Jersey...and all that such an admission implies.

let me get this straight: the website where people anonymously sling shit at each other is selling stickers? I don't know if you've noticed, but this site is like the lastest trashy reality TV show; few people publicly announce that they watch it.

Original logo was actually available as a t-shirt, sweatshirt, race-bag, etc on Cafe Press years ago, on the back was a drawing of a helmetless long-haired cyclist sporting pretty serious legs. Someone once told me the model for that cyclist drawing was bald as a Qball.

"Throw-up"
By: B. Historicus
Fri, 08/13/2010 - 3:10pm

Nothing to do with reverse peristalsis, I can assure you!

I believe the poster refers to your original, classic logo, which had a distinctively more graffiti-like appearance than the current version. A "throw-up," if I remember my 1980s urban vernacular correctly - no promises on that front! - is a piece of graffito that is slightly more elaborate than a tag, yet not as expansive as a piece.

These are worth at least as much as a puffy sticker and a scratch and sniff combined.

Very cool.

All in due time. We talked about it and we're pretty sure we can't sell any toto related items. Using faces for satire is completely different than selling merchandise with the faces of others on it.

you guys would be able to sell a lot more stuff within the cycling community if the team were branded separately from the site. i would buy a t-shirt, stickers, and whatever else, but i don't want to be associated with the team.

Site Kits
By: West Coast Reader
Fri, 08/13/2010 - 2:40am

Yea, Site Kits would be cool as long as its not like that pastel/yin-yang Kit Schmalz wears or is that it?

Anyway, do it! Get King to review the design first though the tough crowd as well. I'm thinking something with some anti-Omerta propaganda as well. Maybe a Pro-Omerta version as well since they seem to also be on here en-mass, I mean if you want to make some money you gotta cover the whole spectrum, if not I'll settle for the Anti-Omerta version. Toto is a must on it, just not like that shirt you had at Interbike though, too cheesy.

I look forward to "pulling through" by contributing, as you once put it.

However, given that I often imbibe my morning macchiato from a cherished "Whose your elder?" mug, I am perplexed that you say you've "finally" sold out:

I know it's nerdy to comment on your own page, but I want the first comment here to be a nice one.
