Yes.
Internet prevents me from playing online matches on fifa.
Yes
And yes. Which is weird.

..To be honest, I'm not too sure

But the problem started a couple of days ago. Never had this happen to me.

Try your local Macca's wifi.

Could it be the file type for some reason? Perhaps try another file type just in case

The .jpg worked.. I don't know what's been happening with .png files..
Let's try the .png again..


EDIT: For some reason, my .png file was 43MB. I saved it again and it's back down to 500KB AND uploaded. What.

Compensating are we? Must have exported at 7000ppi or something

Hi Iam wondering if anyone knows how I can get a Port Adelaide lace up Guernsey confirmed as Russell Eberts? My Dad was given a few guernseys years ago by Malcolm Blights Brother in law. As they played a year at North Melbourne together, I thought this might be a possibility?

Well, according to footyjumpers.com, the guernsey in question was used from 1958-76. Around the time he was playing. it looks similar to Mero 's recreation as well:

*P.S. Mero, you may have missed a back side panel?

Anyone had experience with any custom tshirt printing? Considering an idea involving a photo, if anyone has had a good experience with a site lemme know.

Hey guys, does anyone know of a guernsey designing tutorial for a beginner like myself?
I've been wanting to learn how to design for ages.

I found the gimp tutorial very helpful. It made photoshop a little easier to navigate after a bit of playing around too.

I used vistaprint once, they were cheap, but did a pretty crappy job with the t-shirt and now spam my email address with offers every day...

Every place I looked didn't offer far enough length down the shirt for printing which was annoying

Have you tried Spreadshirt or Cafepress?

Is it true the new eagles jumpers next year will have a new eagle? Maybe it was a dream but i m pretty sure I read it somewhere on BF a few days ago. If so I think it's a good idea.

 

[Red Crow]

I'm hoping the FJGD community can help a brother out. Is anybody able to tell me the distinction between "swingman" jerseys and just "replica" jerseys? How would they equate to different forms of AFL jumpers?

For example:

Replica Jersey (US$90) - http://store.nba.com/San_Antonio_Spurs_Jerseys/adidas_San_Antonio_Spurs_Custom_Replica_Home_Jersey

Swingman Jersey (US$110) - http://store.nba.com/San_Antonio_Sp...White_2014-15_New_Custom_Swingman_Home_Jersey

There is also the "Authentic" jersey for US$300 which I assume is essentially a full on PI equivalent?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

From my experiences, Swingman are stretchy AF. Material feels shit for the price you pay

Authentics are far more comfortable and are created with tiny air holes for ultimate comfort if you plan on using it.

My Lakers Swingman is good for the fact that it's size (even the smallest) will provide many years of durability and usage. But I have a Jordan Bulls authentic and damn, even in the blazing sun the air holes provide a good amount of ventilation that you'll so sorely need. I'm sure you can find cheaper authentics but if you're like me and you like spending that extra bit of coin for design and comfort, authentic all the way. If not and you're planning on simple wear and tearing, Swingman is your best bet.

Swingmans are the exact design as the authentic and playing strip. They also are a better material than replicas, which don't have the same design.
If you look at the side panels of the San Antonio jerseys the replica jersey doesn't include the grey outline, which is on the playing strip. The replicas are also screen printed rather than stitched into the fabric.

Replicas have the numbers and names painted on; swingmans are switched on. I don't know if this has changed since a few years ago though when I last bought a jersey

 

[Greater Gattsby]

Authentics - For those who love quality, don't mind spending extra coin for a better product.
Swingmans - For the ballers. Great to run around in, and get lots of use out of, affordable product.
Replicas - For the hipsters. Don't care about price or performance, it's being worn as a fashion statement, most likely accompanied by a bushy beard and snapback.

My swingman knicks jersey has everything ironed on, which I'm assuming would be cheaper for adidas than stitching.
