I love the thought of possibilities in the morning.
Have some coffee, look this over!

So I stumbled across a legit looking website for t-shirts a while ago.
https://www.teepublic.com
It got me thinking about the talent here.
Now, I don't know how you dudes would approach selling your work.
If this doesn't sit well with you guys its all good, just a thought.
It doesn't have to be this site either.
So the site (if we were to choose one) usually takes a cut of every product distributed (naturally.)
Call this a motivation topic if you like.
I just think the idea of a collection of community designs for sale sounds sick.
If it ever blew up we could use the money to partner with a board manufacture or something.
Ive always thought about some kind of skateboard company but how would you start?
You have to start somewhere right?
My idea was to have the product sell itself until eventually it ends up on boards.
So I would think of someone with experience in this area running the show.
Sign Guy comes to mind but not sure of his availability or interest for the matter.
This is also my lack of getting to know all you fluckers.
Thoughts?

i used to sell t shirt with my own design when i was like 16... but the shop making them was charging me too much and i was making micro profit, so i stopped.. this site look good, even iff nobody jump on the wagon i think i might buy a couple thing from there...

if you get a comunity board company can we all get a TF, or at least a piece each of the tf since we are all appart

Also, there is a company which you can do this kinda "print your own" stuff on boards and griptape.

Eh, some sounded interested I guess we'll see how much now.
Got to have some kind of cash flow to put into an idea like this so selling tees was my first thought.
That site looks sick Ironz but I get the feeling it doesn't specialize in shipping out a collection of designs to anyone who wants to buy them. More a personal creation website. Like the ones that you can get coffee mugs from.

Keep the site funded, people can either donate or go buy something....

I would buy that in a minute.

Does sound cool
Would be really fun to do that based on just what we know about each other haha.
Not sure if you could include everyone though.
There has been a ton of people to come through Fluckit.
You could however, consider several cartoon portraits.
Split it up somehow.. Teams is a thought but some of us were solo skaters.
How many people per portrait is the question.
A Fluckit graphic series I suppose.
Haha..
General thoughts.
rappers with a mic or a pad and pen..
Saunders, Don Vigo, etc.
Pawn luv in a brown hoodie that Has a funny one liner about pop.
Sign guy with a sign!
Demz' balding skater.
I could be in one with steam coming out of my ears. Got too heated in the past!
Stoke with a guitar..
BB with something LB related.
It wouldn't be hard haha.
I don't know every Flucker personally so that's all I got off the top.

I had a crazy thought today..
What if Fluck It had a community skate channel but it was like all real life stuff?
Vlogs, Skateboarding, whatever. Obviously no copyrighted stuff..
edit:
Wouldn't have to share login details, people could send us stuff.
Anything on the channel goes toward the startup.

Monetize that.. see what happens.

It would be down the line but IF it blew up it could be a nice way to see some money roll in for a fluck it company.

Even further along if proven successful,
Easy way to keep our forum alive, could bring back that main site page with a store front, and MAYBE even organize fluck it get togethers thus pushing the products even more.
I've already seen a few ventures sprout up using this method, one dude even lives in my area.
LLC, Federal Tax ID, Lawyer and Accountant, probably some more things for the startup cost.
A bit overwhelming but the Lawyer would help and we're talking Dream Jobs fellas.

If anyone has any ideas throw them up man.. would love to do this with anyone who is as equally excited/motivated.
I may come back with some more thoughts later.
Keep Rollin.
