T-shirt Designs - LRR Inspired

[Sable]

Of course, that one (while awesome) wouldn't print well. Being a photo and all.

Yeah, sadly. Even though I did "Cutout" the hell out of it. So it's actually not as photo as it looks at that size.

If only we had someone to transpose photographs into stylised collections of pigment and ink - one might almost suggest some sort of scribe but no, they dally only in the common word, not the complex machinations of the visual world...

Seriously Tensen, I would buy a 64K shirt that you drew. In a second.

Idea: Loading-ready-ROCK
Graphic: Rockband or GH related, some form of LRRian spin

The Timelords! THEY NEED T-SHIRTS NOW.

It could be a scarf, wrapped around an electric guitar... on fire.

[browncoat]

Actually I have a MP3 of "The Timelords".
That was a band a friend of mine played in once.
They didn't really release anythin, though, just a few demos in MP3-format.

Maybe a silhouette of Morgan doing the GH rocking?

I love that idea.

Me personally, I'd want a tshirt with a slightly oversized print of a USB port at the belly button with the words (exactly as below, but centered on the tshirt):

YOU
YOU NEED
LINUX ON YOU

...and perhaps a cord that wraps around the right side to the back where Paul's keyboard is on the back (at an angle so that the top is closest to the left shoulderblade, the right side is just below the right shoulderblade, and the left side is just above the left buttock).

And because you need it in there somewhere, just have the LRR symbol really small just below the neckline on the back centered.

(For those not remembering where the quote came from (a logical impossibility, but one nonetheless), it's from "Installation Anxiety")

I would buy the SED, gorgeous, and Ian McKellen shirt. ^_^

Would you actually, though?

This is the issue we've always had with shirts. People say "Yes, I'd totally buy that!" and then we say "Well, here it is! Buy away!" and nothing happens.
A lot of shuffling of feet and mumbling about paychecks, but no sales.

I'm not trying to give you a hard time CT, I'm just trying to suss out what you guys all actually mean by "I would buy that."

[DontPanic]

Personally I think we sometimes confuse the phrases "I would buy that" with "I would wear that". While both are positive, we tend to say the former for most responses to shirts/ideas.
Most likely tho, unless someone gets the shirt for us and delivers it to our doorstep, we are hesitant with money issues/ordering proceedures/etc and procrastinate to no end when it comes to getting LRR clothing.
I would assume that "must have" merchandise is selling as soon as it is available, while items we do like but are not completely overwhelmed by, stay on the shelves til later in the future.

Proposed solution: more detail in shirt comments, a "must have", "good idea, would buy eventually", "great logo but not right for a shirt" and so on.

but the T Tetris fits everywhere, it should be the Z shape.

OR an imaginary shape surrounded by real ones in a configuration where it actually will not fit.

Hey Graham,

Do you guys get less dosh if we pay with a credit card? I'm trying to combine the maximum benefit to you guys with not having to hook PayPal up to another bank account, but I know PP does a lot of soul-eating for CC payments.

[Graham]

Nope, we get the same. Thanks for asking though!
There's a difference between online and in person, but no difference in payment type.

[CyberTractor]

Would you actually, though?

Yeah, I would. Since I'm in college, live away from my parents, and don't have a job, gathering spending money is quite hard since I just have to save up what my parents put into my account and wait a period of time in order to ask for more.


This summer when I get a job I plan on buying stuff from the store.

[JesterJ.]

I would probably never buy a t-shirt (I get tired of explaining what the t-shirt is over..and over....and over...again), but I still think they're awesome.

Support the LRR! Go go go!

[emma]

Honestly, I am pretty unlikely to buy anything you have in the store right now. I already own the symbol shirt, and I would like to buy the thromborax shirt, but I cannot really justify buying another t-shirt. Maybe next year.

[Sable]

Any chance you guys would have a Big Bag o' Merch slung round Bill's neck at PAX? I just bought a Logo and DBFH shirt, but I'm sure you'd have some more by then and hey, in person's in person.

I'd get a job anyways. I did it when I was 16. My parents thought it was odd that I was spending 20 hours a week at my friend's house, but, they never questioned it.

[Tensen01]

lol, I'd probably be more likely to buy a Shirt I designed (Or just make one), but I do plan on getting a Pirate shirt when I get paid next week.

I never explain my shirts... Mostly because my friends usually don't ask or know the reference.

I think I might make me an "Ian McKellen" shirt either ways.

Seriously Tensen, I would buy a 64K shirt that you drew. In a second.

I would be totally willing to do an illustration for a 64k shirt. All Graham has to do is ask and tell me what he wants.

[JesterJ.]

Well I normally wear pretty plain clothes, so if I wear something else...it's questioned.

Also, High School is awkward, and people have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING better to talk about.

But enough excuses. Good luck with the shirts!

You don't want to get one because, aside from other things, you're in high school and you don't want people to question you on your clothing?

Man, high school has really gotten to be teh nazishit. Unless you go to a private school. Then there is an explanation.

Again, from what the crew said about high school and advice about it, we all promise things will get better the sooner you step away from the crowd.

errrrrrrrrrghh.. No. I would GLADLY wear a shirt repping LRR, but I'm both too lazy to explain and get annoyed trying to explain what LRR is to everyone. And what I'm saying about everything I wear is questioned, I'm not saying in a BAD way, it's just that I wear bland clothing and if I wear a shirt with a diagram of a head on it, eeverryboddyyy will want to know what it is. Not that I'm popular. Its just people would be wondering what's DIFFERENT.

I'm just going to leave my foot in my mouth, and leave it at that.

I feel like I'm getting defensive. I'm not trying to. YARGH.

Yea, it would be kind of awkward wearing a shirt with pauls face on it.... unless you're picking up "tehchicks"

21 credit hours this semester.
