I like it, The Constitution was ratified in 1788 and took effect in 1789 though. Before that it was the Articles of Confederation.

We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

Independence Day, commonly known as the Fourth of July, is a federal holiday in the United States commemorating the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, declaring independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain.
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness..............we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor."
Thomas Jefferson was one of our notable scholars of the time and was undoubtedly greatly influenced by reading John Locke and his treatise on natural rights. Indeed some of the thinking on the subject goes back to the Romans.
Those rights being natural rights, the ones that they cannot be denied, became defined as "unalienable rights" in the Declaration of Independence long before the Constitution was written.
That we, as Americans, celebrate these Rights as having been declared in 1776 is most fitting.

Oh yeah forgot about "unalienable rights" in the DOI. I was thinking of 2A in the Constitution. Good call 
Plus I thought it might spark discussion from people who were like "1789? What happened in 1789?

Does anyone know how to make them high-def? I can't seem to get them to be a high enough pixel rate? to be blown up large on a t-shirt in good quality

You have to start with a high def image, you can't take a low def and suddenly make it high def, you'll just end up with a blurry high def image...

even when I upload the high-def when I change it from a .psd to a .png it makes it so that it isn't high-def enough to be blown up to a good size on a t-shirt...
You will like need to check with someone familiar with graphic arts.
Our (VCDL) logo has been digitally produced. It can be blown up to billboard size or reduced to a small coin without loss of clarity. It is this that we submit for use with all products. I would think that with the fine line shading et al, that would be the only solution for you.

sorry it took so long for me to reply. We're working on making high-def versions of these. It's more complicated than we originally thought, but we are getting help from VCDL so hopefully soon!
