Shirt Suggestions
I said this in another thread, but was not sure if you had read it or not, Dr. B. I think it'd be a good idea once the ordering of shirts loomed near that you did a thread with the sample pictures of all of the shirts and whatnot, and have us tell you specifically what we want to prevent any mishaps.
also, a Ligotti quote on the back of a shirt might be nice. Like maybe on the Horrific Consolations one put "WORK NOT DONE" on the back |

Re: Shirt Suggestions
Yes, I certainly appreciate the feedback. However, I am once again unsure of the source and method of production. If I can become satisfied with the quality and pricing structure offered, I am definitely leaning towards the buyer purchasing direct from the manufacturer. This allows for the buyer to choose material, style and size of shirts. The exception might be for a popular style where I could pre-order in quantity to save a few bucks for the buyer, however this could become problematic.
Regarding the request for print on the back of shirts, this is possible. I even considered running a separate thread concerning this to get member feedback. In the end, in part due to my own ophthalmophobia, I decided not to take advantage of this option. Is it of interest? If so, my original concept was to either feature tasteful propaganda about the site or a short quote from Tom. I would not want to "mix" themes, however, and have an MWINYD element on the back of a TAROVFAOGT style shirt. I have given thought to the possibility of a MWINYD shirt, though this one would likely require permission from Mythos Books. How does everyone feel about image/text printing on the back of the shirts? | |||||||||||

Re: Shirt Suggestions
If I were to suggest any text to be printed on the back of a shirt (I actually would prefer something simple, but this would definately get some odd looks from bored passengers on the bus) it would be the "When everyone you have ever loved is finally gone..." opener/closer for the C93 IHASPFTW. Dunno if that would be too long or not, though. I know nothing of printing T-Shirts. :|

What I think would be really cool is the TLO image from the front page on a black shirt with the above IHASPFTW quote on the back, but that's probably just me. However, I'm sure whatever the good Doctor decides will be just fine. | |||||||||||

Perfect. On a black shirt with white text in the Carbon Type font. |

Re: Shirt Suggestions
I only ever read very short messages on T-shirts. Perhaps I'm paranoid, but I feel that - should I stare at people's shirts for too long - the shirt wearer is likely to impute false motives for my staring.

Re: Shirt Suggestions
I love it! Though it is an abstract reference and otherwise in conflict with the fact that I am vegetarian. How about BEER- WINE - LIQUOR. Wait, I think I might have seen that somewhere before. | |||||||||||
