So Proud and HappyCategory: zombies
Our very own (e:james) has been promoted to Deputy Campaign Manager for the political campaign he's working for. I won't go into too many details in case I say the wrong thing, but definitely congratulate him on his exciting new opportunity and challenge if you see him.
Here's to you, James!

(e:strip) is just so google friendly that I didn't want to tie his name together with the candidate, and have (e:strip) be the first result when you search for NYS Assemblyman so-and-so. (Hey it's happened before!)
Just so that James can feel comfortable posting here on a personal level.

Well done (e:james)! Any reason for the coyness about the candidate though? Just curious. I suspect I know who the candidate is anyway! :)

First they took our shops. Then they took our restaurants. Then they took our theaters.
And now the mall is coming for our eXtreme sports.

e:strip T-ShirtCategory: meta
Paul and Everyone,
If I organized making t-shirts would anyone be interested?
Either at-cost ($12) or with a markup ($24?) that would go to Paul for ongoing costs.
They could look something like this:
Also, I hope to plan another (e:strip) dinner for July. Stay tuned! Picnic-ish something other other, probably.

Going Christmas shopping I was thinking about how someone said that they where going to get a holiday dinner planned then I remembered that you had the idea of the shirts and I was wondering if enough people got interested and I couldn't remember what got decided or if there was a link to a place we could buy them?

Only if it's done in Comic Sans.
HEHEHEHE
PS: I thought it was a good idea to chip in with the costs anyway, the T-Shirt would be a bonus. And yes, love the tortoise! Would be awesome in the black and fitted version. I think I shall go in with whatever style lilho recommends.

I'm with Chico and Janelle. A modest markup to pitch in with site costs. I'm in for a shirt though.

T-Shirt clarification: you'll be able to pick your own colors, sizes, and men/women's style.
I'll set it up through SpreadShirt, which is print on demand. I'm waiting to do more until I get an order from them for another t-shirt I bought, to make sure that they're nicely done.
Since we don't have to order a bunch at once there won't be any hurry or anything getting together a bunch of money, the store could be permanently linked to from the home page.
Paul, I'd love the original vector so that I don't have to recreate it - I just copied this turtle from one of your old journals as a starting point.
Perhaps I could set up the designs, but we should just put it in your name so you get the extra $$$ without having to step through me, Paul? I don't want to be the middle man in this afterwards.

chico - 06/20/08 07:20
I think the turtle logo is great! I'd be willing to go along with (e:janelle)'s idea of a modest mark-up to raise a few dollars to offset site costs. ($20, tops?)
Here's an idea that would increase the cost of the shirt a little but might be worth it, depending on what you think and what others think: imagine the tag cloud from the front page of the (e:strip) site on the back of the shirt. It would both give a sense of the content and diversity of topics on the site and maybe speak to the curiosity that the uninitiated might have (i.e., "what is e-strip?")
It depends on what the goal of the t-shirt is... if it's just to provide one more bond among us, that's cool, but if we want to increase traffic to the site, you might consider whetting people's appetite a little.
Is that blue intended to be the color of the shirt, or just the background field of the logo?

I want a tee-shirt too. I freakin love it. I also think $24 is too much for a tee-shirt then again starting July 1st it will cost me $99/month to run the site and I think that is alot.

I would SO love an estrip t-shirt. The cheap side of me wants them at $12. I think $24 is too much for any t-shirt, even one for a cause. Maybe $18 for a marked up t-shirt. Just my opinion.

I admit that a shirt is a good Idea, I have thought of it in the past but only as a thought. Question does any one think that online community should be on the shirt. Two other thoughts animal wise I know there is a reason for the turtle but animal wise I'm into Dragons and Tigers but maybe a Buffalo would be cool also. I might be interested in a shirt I'm sure I would get one of course before I commit I would want to see what it would look like for sure before committing money.

Oh. My. Goddess...this is a feminist theorists dream! Perhaps a little too literal though... could compare to Jaws... :)
er...vagina dentata!
just gotta love the vagina dente!
The scene where the guy looks down and then screams...bloody wunderbar!
I hope this movie too ends with a coyote and a stone phallus.
