Will the shirt have the code itself or just the silhouette of the code?

I agree. This is such a misleading website. I don't even know what I'll get.

After you click "Continue with this design," you'll see a proof on the left.

You're getting the code as blocks--the hover text is just to show you how the code is being highlighted.

Well that's kind of boring

Yeah I thought I was getting readable print. Instead I get some coloured lines on a shirt.

No thanks.

Sorry :(.

After seeing the proof, I was still confused what I would receive, and thought maybe the blocks were placeholders for the text that would appear in the final print. You should definitely make this more clear, because the phrasing on the site gives the impression you'll get the actual code.

Without a doubt you'll get lots of requests for refunds if this isn't adjusted.

Yep--thanks for the tip. I've added a bunch of warnings all around, and reached out to folks who ordered with a clarification :).

It was clear to me what I'd get. Awesome project.
