O.K. - O.K.- here's the deal- the Midnight Snack is actually printed with the same number of colors - just a bad image of the guy wearing it i guess. when i first started up - i was kinda clueless - but the printer i used then totally messed up the Not So Scary and Homesick Friend designs as well as a few others. I apologize to the designers for this. I had spent a considerable amount of money and could not afford to have them re-printed - and made the decision to put them up anyway - bad decision? maybe. we still have several other designs to choose from where the colors are not an issue. I just hope people will continue to try and give us a chance. we are working with a much better printer now and have no issues on any of the new designs. once the 5 and 10$ items are sold out - they will not be available again. have you seen the new design contest? it can be seen here: http://www.burnswell.com/bigdeal_gallery.php thanks-<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('19','alan'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('19','alan','OUCH!\r\nO.K. - O.K.-\r\nhere\'s the deal- the Midnight Snack is actually printed with the same number of colors - just a bad image of the guy wearing it i guess.\r\nwhen i first started up - i was kinda clueless - but the printer i used then totally messed up the Not So Scary and Homesick Friend designs as well as a few others.

O.K. – O.K.-
here’s the deal- the Midnight Snack is actually printed with the same number of colors – just a bad image of the guy wearing it i guess.
when i first started up – i was kinda clueless – but the printer i used then totally messed up the Not So Scary and Homesick Friend designs as well as a few others. I apologize to the designers for this. I had spent a considerable amount of money and could not afford to have them re-printed – and made the decision to put them up anyway – bad decision? maybe. we still have several other designs to choose from where the colors are not an issue.

I just hope people will continue to try and give us a chance. we are working with a much better printer now and have no issues on any of the new designs. once the 5 and 10$ items are sold out – they will not be available again.
