Thank you for your praise on the site design. It is built entirely on top of Wordpress (which has it's drawbacks) and it works really well and makes it very easy to manage. I'm super happy you found some new love for new artists through our site. All 3 of us behind RIPT are artists ourselves. Our main goal with the site is to provide a place for established as well as up-and-coming artists to showcase their talents... we provide the stage at a packed show.. if you will :) The model is an interesting one, yet obviously effective. We have had lots of people email in wanting past/graveyard shirts. We have discussed things in the past like "resurrecting" shirts from the graveyard. We just don't want to stray away from our model. It's hopefully something we will do in the future though. One thing that could help you stay on top of the shirt lineup is subscribing to the RSS feed. If you can not make it back to the site everyday, at least if you are an avid RSS nerd like myself, its a quick and simple way to see what's up on the site each day. feed address: http://feeds2.feedburner.com/riptapparel Thanks again, and I hope you come back and say hi and one day find the shirt you love and "pull the trigger"!
