I like the S / names combination idea, but there are better ways to do
this than making it a light color and overprinting the names. Below are 2
that require only 1 color printing, which is cheaper (allowing for a front
and back, perhaps):

1) lay out the names and other text, then superimpose the "S" as a mask,
using it to alter the text and background enough that it can be
distinguished

2) wrap the text around the S. Any page layout program can do this, but
nothing that I have will do it.
I do have a fancy idea for laying out the text RADIALLY from the S-
the S would be in the center, and the names form rays around it. I can do
that in PhotoShop, which I do have.

The "S" itself, if used, should also be dressed up a bit- I think a
chrome or similar treatment would be nice: if anybody has any cool font
FX, they should speak up.

I for one would not mind paying as much as $20 to cover the cost of a
shirt and shipping, but cost was a big issue last year, it seems.
Anything requiring more than 2 screens seemed expensive.
