Apolyton T-Shirt.
So what is the status of it? Is it still in a holding pattern? Should we be thinking of a design or should we go ahead and spend our hard earned money on somthing else. I'm just asking cause I want to get my Christmas shopping done early this year.


Some ideas for the T-Shirts

1. Login name on shirt
2. Spammers unite slogan
3. OT Warrior on the back
4. I came, I saw, I spammed
5. But I don't like spam on the back.

Any others?

I think it would be cool to have a big on the back.

Ooh, an OT T-shirt. That's cool. Wait 'til sover or some other On-Topic Snob cracks down on it, though.

It isn't exclusively OT material... if you notice.

It could also include:

I whupped Tau Ceti's @ss in Alpha Centauri PBEMs
and
Velociryx sux

(Sorry, couldn't resist that. Actually I respect the guy, but with all the complaints about him being the first interviewee I think he actually deserved to be one of the first 3 interviewed)

So sad. Perhaps one day Greece will be rich enough to afford all of the words needed to make a sentence.

Definitely not in white. Very few people can wear white without looking like a walking corpse - and just because my handle hints at undead status doesn't mean I want to look the part.

Do what my brother did: convince a minion to go into the printed T-shirt business (all you really need is a t-shirt press, and computer and reasonable quality printer), and give the minion exclusive rights to make and sell the shirts--keeping design control and sizable royalties to yourselves, of course.

Did I mention the minion can be left to do his own research and buy the needed gear?

Mark.

If you are interested there is on online store where you can have t-shirts made but they sell them online for you. If you order 100 I think they are 1$ each cost to you. You set the selling price somewhere over 12.99. For each shirt sold they get 12.99 and you get whatever is over that. In other words, charge 14.99 and sell 50 shirts and you make your money back. Sell them all and you have made the money for another batch.

An ACOLidiot has been trying to promote his shirts recently.

Expensive for small quantities, but has special rates for relative high-quantity stuff. Too bad they don't have a saffron option...

That's the same site that was the topic of the thread I gave a link to, you can purchase "Glonk" merchandise there if you want to.

A Serious T Shirt Question
Jesus Christ! Would you really send a lawyer after someone for using an image you own on a T shirt? You people scare me, but not as much as I can scare you!

Purely hypothetically, last year someone bought some iron on T shirt transfer paper and some cheap T shirts. They may have put printed images from Alpha Centauri (i.e. I'm Okay, You're A Drone, All I Ever Needed To Know I Learned In The Cloning Vats plus faction symbols and portraits) on to this paper and created T shirts themselves at a cost of £2 per T shirt.

Purely hypothetically. They may have worn them to college and convinced their friends that the faction leaders were real people. And even been asked if CEO Morgan was Nelson Mandela!

But seriously, lawyers??

I wasn't sure if you were being serious, but I think it is illegal to use licensed artwork without the owner's consent.

Oh well, you didn't waste much time with that Apolyton logo did you? It's probably not even a licenced image.

And don't joke about suing people, it happens far too often on the internet.

Ah, the good old T shirt, best friend of the flat-chested woman
