The Basics

This database contains .png images of sports uniforms past and present. (I unfortunately don't sell jerseys, these are just pictorial representations.) The main idea behind the database is to create a graphic reference for jersey designs, what team's players have played for, as well as the numbers they wore. The utmost is done to be as accurate as possible however if you find errors please let me know and I will do my best to correct them as soon as possible. New jerseys are added on an almost daily basis.

What do you do with them?

Besides being used for reference, the main intention for the jerseys is that they be used with the widgets available on the site. They are all free and can be downloaded for use with Dashboard and Yahoo! Widgets. The widgets allow you to display a favorite player on your desktop, show the date using a corresponding jersey number, or just show random jerseys.

You can also use them as avatars on forums, as icons on your computer, as your IM image, pretty much anything you want. (Please do not hotlink to them. Save them and host them on your own server.) All I ask is that you don't redistribute them or use them in conjunction with any design of your own without my permission. (I.e. using batches of them in your own work or on your website.) If you are interested in using them beyond conventional means please contact me or become an affiliate here.

Requests

You can make requests for players you would like added by using first and foremost the forum. I do my best to add those I can when time permits, however it can take a while before yours appear.

User Submissions

All jerseys that have an ID number that starts with the letter U have been created and submitted to the database by users/members of the site. They are in effect still their creations and any and all questions regarding them should be directed towards the makers.

If you are interested in learning to make these small jerseys and having them added to the database the first step is to become a member of the forum where you can get immediate help and information. The templates are all available in a number of different formats via a link on the Create page.

The submission process is simple, just create a zip file of your jerseys with a corresponding text file with the players' full names, numbers, the team and the years the jersey was/or is being used. When your file is ready just mail it to the site via hockeywidgets_at_gmail.com. Once your jerseys have been reviewed and accepted they will be added to the database. You are strongly encouraged to post examples in the Forum before sending them in.
