Just talked to April, she's emailing me some final prices, based on a minimum of 24 shirts. With that minimum, you get a free color change.
About the color that shows up when you click on the site for men's colors: http://www.brandbookonline.com/cgi-bin/brand/site.w?location=olc/cobrand-product.w&category=&prb=&srb=&mill=&shade=&color=&product=3600&frames=no&target=main&sponsor=000004&nocache=47012 She says the first image IS heather gray, but on her screen, the actual color is more like the swatch. I wanted to point out that the "cool blue" in the top row is a lot like the Snowdrift "deep blue" but she says is is slightly darker than the swatch. Again, this is on her screen, so your results may vary... That might be a good color if you want to add a blue. The "light gray" is a light silver color, slightly warmer in tone to the "heather gray". There's no extra charge for underlay with white ink, she just does a couple of layers of white. As far as the "feel" of the ink, white ink is denser due to the need for opacity, but she said our logo and cartoons are small enough that she doesn't think there would be a comfort issue. She's not gonna charge up front, and prefers cash. :) If we don't get around to ordering till I get back from CA (leaving tomorrow - the 29th) she said we'd still have plenty of time to get the order in before Jan 21st.
