you my friend are a smarter man than me. i have been doing drawings for like 25 bucks and a record or a few prints of the shirt for like 4 years now. adn i put like 4 hours into each drawing. don't be stupid like me. if you can get the cash get it.

the part that some people seem to foget is that if someone does a great t-shirt design for you, your shop, your band, or whatever; the quality of the art is what is going to sell the shirt. Few people go "holy crap, this is a Fruit of the Loom shirt, those are great, I love the cut, the way it feels", no, they go "that design rules, I want to buy it" so it's only fair that the person who creates the design be compensated in a proportional manner for the inhetent value of their work. If you do a design for say $50 for a store, that then goes on to sell 5000 of those and makes $50,000, it's only fair that the person who did the actualy leg work get their due. That's a hard concept for some customers/people to grasp.

I charge 100 hr though my scope is narrow and niche in the market.
I would charge $25-50hr depending on time to a family member.
And for sure hit them up for favors since you are doing one for them... the street goes both ways.

As for the band I might charge him more cause the singer is whiney and painful to listen to.

sorry if your cousin is the singer.
I FUCKIN LOVE THE MUSIC... thats tough.
singer blew it for the band. big time.
the thing that killed it for me was the song i remember full house.
TOUGH ASS GUITAR AND DRUMMING leading into it...
gets you going "yeah, oh yeah" and almost wanting to break things
and then you have nasal boy come in and kill the shit
by singing about danny joey and the olsen twins??
WTF?
lack of things to write aboooot in canada I guess?
Anyway the band is ROCKIN. just need to ditch the singer.
but what do i know? our band has been auditioning singers for the past 4-6 months...

hey everyone is entitled to their opinion, no offense taken or anything. it's not like it's my band.
my cousin isn't the singer, he's the drummer.
the singer used to be a drummer and this is his first time singing. as for the full house song, i think what they are trying to do is bring fun into hardcore. they don't sing about sXe or unity, really. it's more like drinking and girls and...full house.

but yeah i agree his vocals do get pretty nasally.
they have been doing pretty good for themselves though. played a warped tour date, got on a hardcore compilation...

i thought the same thing about SAOSIN when i seen them. everything was great, fast guitars, heavy drums, and then the singer came in and made my ears bleed. and for some reason those guys are gettin big.
