    :roll: Welllll, it's now titled "My Prius" but is ignored when I search for Prius.

    It still comes up when I search for "my car", like the word 'car' is still somewhere important.

    Maybe I'll get it fixed eventually...

    Let me know how your shirt turns out. I'm a little anxious about mine. I had to go ahead and order 2 so I'm even more anxious.

    OK how about a shirt with a picture of a Prius (silver of course) with a line under the picture "Don't hate me because I am green" (ya ya I know I stole the idea from a hair or what ever add some years ago but I think it works)

    good one!!

    or you could say

    "Don't hate me because i still have some green left"

    with the rise in oil prices, can gas prices be far behind? i predict another year of shortages on the Prius front.

    I got mine too

    I got my shirts from Zazzle and I'm real happy with them. Any bluriness is due to my refusal to read the digital camera manual.

    Here is a Link to my Zazzle Design for anyone interested. Haven't gotten my shirt yet (gray polo is what I ordered), but anyone interested is welcome to use my design or if you just want my photos I'll send you those...you CAN read both the TOGOB4 Missouri tag and the Arkansas Razorback license plate frame...if that's a problem for you).

    My shirt survived the first wash OK. Didn't check for shrinkage, but the colors seemed to stay put...

    Yes, the photo above shows my shirt after the first wash. In fact I had a pen mark on it and I got that out so you'd never know it was there. I will be ordering more shirts from them. The tee with my favorite coffee saying is almost ready for the rag bag so I designed a couple at Zazzle - not sure which I'll get.

    Got a letter from the Zazzle copyright & trademark office. They won't produce the shirt b/c it says Toyota Prius on it. Since they're a commercial site and they don't have Toyota's permission to sell they're trademarks they won't make the shirt. I may make a different one, but we'll see.

    Could you just make your own with the iron on inkjet paper from Staples or wherever?

    My personal hint on decorated T-shirts: NEVER put them in the dryer. I have 20 Y/O shirts that still look pretty decent. The heat in the dryer causes the paint (or whatever it is) to crack.

    Did the letter spell out "Toyota Prius" was bad but "Prius" was OK, or has every Prius shirt just snuck by them until now?...

    I had it spelled out Toyota Prius, I inquired as to whether just saying Prius alone would be ok, they didn't respond to that question. May give it a try though.

    Ok, I redesigned my Zazzle T-Shirt to say only PRIUS without the Toyota part...we'll see if it passes 'inspection"

    update
    Recieved my T-shirt today...looks pretty nice..

    Decent quality T-shirt. I got the 'ash' colored--kind of a speckled gray and some of that shows through on the image rather than a nice clean picture. But on white or a solid light color would have been very nice.
