>Ok. After talking with J.D. Falk, I'm taking over the T-Shirt thing.

>Here's what I'll do:

>Tomorrow I've scheduled some lab time (I think). I'm going to scan in
>the B&W logo from the back of the Seattle Sourcebook for the front, and
>I'll come up with something for the back.
>
>Then I will print out the designs, rescan them in again as GIFs and
>they'll be put into JD Falk's FTP directory for everyone to look at.
>
>I've called around for prices at the five local screening shops in
>Mankato. Prices per shirt (QTY 12) range from about $10.10 to $18.00.
>This is for one colour front and back back on a coloured shirt. I dunno
>if we can make more than one colour shirt available. If not, the colour
>will be ash-grey with black print (looks good) or black with either white
>or flourescent gree print (it looks really kool). Other suggestions are
>needed. Remember, one colour.
>
>If we can mix-n-match colour and ink, I'll make about three or four
>designs avaialable.
>
>After factoring in shipping costs and other variables, the price will be
>$15 per shirt. This might go down a LITTLE, as I still need to get a bid
>from one other company, but $15 seems pretty standard for net.shirts.
>
>I know the price isn't great, but unless we order large quantities (like
>over 36 or 50), the price just isn't that great.

(At This point count me in for the shirt, by the way, what FTP site is it
you are referring to??)

>-------------------------
>
>How it will work:
>
>SEND NO MONEY RIGHT NOW, AND DON'T TELL ME YOU WANT ONE YET!
>
>Once I get the actual designs and a finalized price, I'll post an
>announcement. In order to increase interest, I'm going to cross-post to
>ShadowTK and NERPS, and the shirt will reflect all four mailing lists on
>it (on the front it will list all four names).
>
>Then, you have to send me the $$$ (prepay) along with a form you'll fill
>in with your summer address and other stuff. Foreign orders will be
>accepted, but the price will be a bit higher and only U.S. funds
>will be accepted (we can work out the details then).
>
>I'll collect orders for maybe four weeks (to allow for mail delays), and
>ONLY those people that order will have their names on the shirt (sorry,
>no other way to include everyone.)
>
>If you are ordering more than one shirt, we may be able to work a deal as
>shipping will be reduced, so that's an encouragement for people local to
>each other to gang-order.
>
>Also, the shirt WILL have a date on it, so that next year we can do
>another one if we want with a NEW date.

Sounds Like a plan to me.
