I could use a T-Shirt.
 
Maybe something with a coffee stain printed on it?

What's your minimum order for T-shirts, Ed?
Including shipping... well that may be hard to figure, since we all live in different places.
I was thinking some sort of Coffee House or FSF shirt we could all get together and order from you. Anyone else in?

Have you gotten any business from Thumbtack? I have my doubts about it. It's a great idea in theory, but in practice they send me a lot of inquiries that either don't sound genuine or are way out of the service area I specified. I did get one small job off of it though.

Where are the reviews displayed?
 
My buddy Bobby wants to see his name on the interweb.

I suspect since "Bobby" is not a member the review goes through internal review before being posted on the page.
 
As a member I reviewed a friend's service and it showed up right away.

I've read a lot of comments from people who are convicted that half the leads it sends are made up. You buy credits and I think it costs you 2 credits to send quotes. However, sometimes Thumbtack refunds credits if you didn't get the job. I don't think they've done that all the time with me though. One thing I've noticed is that I get far fewer replies to my quotes than I get when people use my website form to send inquiries. Whether that's because Thumbtack is a scam, or because Thumbtack attracts a different kind of customer, I have no idea. However, the one job I did get from it more than paid for all of the credits I've ever bought from them, so I'm up in total.

Ed, I keep getting this error message every time I try to submit my glowing review:
 
 
 
I'll try again later, and let you know what happens.
 
Here's my review BTW:
 
I recently ordered some band merchandise (T-Shirts, Mugs, Mouse Mats) from Wicked Screen Printing & Embroidery.
 
The process was conducted from start to finish in a very professionally manner by Ed himself, ensuring the designs of my items were exactly what I required. Furthermore, the prices he quoted were very competitive, and the quality of all the items excellent. Delivery was also very quick, with my items well packaged and henceforth arriving in perfect condition.
 
I am sure to use Ed's company again in future, and based on my recent transaction, I have no hesitation in recommending his services to others.

I thought for sure that you would have mentioned how much you liked Ed's Wicked Printing logo.
 
I'm disappointed in you Strummy my boy.
 
An older boy would have gone for it. ;-)

No, then it would look like this: "The proceuss waus conducteud froum staurt to finiush in a veury professionaully manneur by Ed himseulf."
 
(Unless you were referring to that extra "ly" in which case you're on your own.)
