I was going to scan and redraw the Logo from the Baby cover if
anyone still needs it for a T-Shirt design. Let me know if it is still
needed as I have been rather busy lately.

Ancient cultures believed that names held great power, personal names
more so and they were guarded very closely. To protect themselves, they
answered to another name, because if another discovered their real name,
it could be used against them.
History repeats itself.

MC23, after a conversation with Mike M. we've had *here*, I'd not suggest
actually or actively using the cover of the book. It is part of the FASA
protected materials. FASA is flexible and friendly. We'll mention the idea
of the new shirts this year soon to Mike, and see if he can mention it to
Jill, Mort, etc... If we can get permission to use the logo or some *real*
portion of it, it would be all that much cooler.

Not holding my breath, but we *WILL* try.

Since my design includes said logo, and is already posted on the web,
I'm gonna call them on Monday. If they allow its use, I'd like to get a
cleaner original than my BABY, as the "pores" of the "leather" show up
strongly in scans.
What do people think would make an acceptable alternative in that
image? A computer chip? Some bullets? Both?
If all we have on the front is a not to large portrayal of some
character, I could easily fit the text around that, for a cooperative
effort at art + design. Keeping the shirt one sided might keep a 4 color
process image on the front within attainable budget.

How good are you (Or anyone else) at drawing an image similar to the
Shadowtech cover? I was think a 50/50 flesh-machine split vertically
down the middle with the caption "Forever Chrome" or "Forever Chipped"
or
somesuch ... I tried something similar a while back and it didn't come
out too hot ... would you like me to try again?

This is also very true. We'll look into, and other people that are price
finding should as well.

Actually, that isn't all that bad an idea. Perhaps one side of an image being
a "chrome type" (either Matrix or Street Sam) and the other side being more
"astral projectionish"? It's just a thought.

This was sort of similar to what the '97 shirt looked like. Pretty oogly
drawing, if you ask me..

Too similar to '97, IMO.

I REALLY like that idea. I can't draw, can someone else do this?
