I already frequently, and vocally, point people here for answers on the official messageboard. --The Merovingian 13:27, 2 March 2006 (CST)

That you do. When I saw the drinking game thread I assumed you would link here... until I remembered that the wiki was down. Then I was sad... --Steelviper 13:31, 2 March 2006 (CST)

Revenue

So, I had a shirt idea. It's not spectacular, but I think it's obscure enough to not be sued over. The rank pip is for a captain, though it could be changed. I was also thinking, as mentioned on the Frappr! site, of doing quotes shirts (In fact, I already threw one together). The place I'm using to make these designs, Custom Ink, is really neat and it's what we used to create the Texas Sports Weekly shirts which turned out nicely. We could also do mugs and other things through them, if we wanted. Anyone else with ideas? --Day 14:45, 2 March 2006 (CST)

Day, I love you like a brother...but your t-shirt idea is nothing compared to mine. I am sorry:

This shirt was created by Man
It rebelled
It evolved
There are many copies
And they have a plan...

Wow. That IS good...where do I sign up? I want one with a glowing spine on the back. :) Joe McCullough 14:55, 2 March 2006 (CST)

I don't know, I just made it up myself. Seemed logical. --The Merovingian 14:59, 2 March 2006 (CST)

I like it. Mind if I work up a mock-up on CustomInk and then link it? I was thinking black shirt with some white (probably) lettering. And on the spine-glow... We'll have to be subtle about it... Probably possible with photoshop, but to do a true-gradient would cost a lot (you pay per color, see), so stipling would be the most cost-efficient method. Anyway, I await your reply, Merv. --Day 20:38, 2 March 2006 (CST)

We're going to need a unique logo

Well, it looks like we're going to need a unique logo if we're to make shirts, mugs, mousepads and all that good stuff. Obviously, the quotes idea is pretty cool, but if we are going to promote the website than a totally new logo is going to have to be devised. It needs to be "Galactica"-ized, but not so much where we can get into hot water due to copyright issues. Thoughts? -- Joe Beaudoin 19:58, 2 March 2006 (CST)
