Just for reference, all t-shirts fade when you wash them.  To prevent this, turn the shirt inside out.  I bought some shirst last July and started doing that with them, they still look brand new.

After a wash as in one wash.   Cafepress is notorious for their lack of quality.   I've heard of logos flaking off within two wearings.

Yeah I'll admit, that meme is getting a bit tiring. what about a 5x5 grid with a splattered dead dwarf against a cliff face, and 'Losing is fun!' under it, and on the other side '<random> died after colliding with an obstacle' or whatever the 'slammed into an obstacle and explodes into gore' death message is.

Or we could just go with Squeegy's idea and have a dead dwarf on one side and 'losing is fun!' on the other.

There are places other than cafepress for making t-shirts.

If they donate the proceeds, I don't see why not.

Maybe, but I need to hear it from his keyboard before any action can be taken.

Yeah, if he gave the go ahead I'd post a poll in the main forum asking if people wanted shirts and would put cash up for it to check interest.

I'd be pretty interested in a blank black shirt that just listed what was on the shirt. This shirt menaces with spikes of opal. On the shirt is in a silk image of a dwarf and cheese. The dwarf is surrounded by the cheese...anything like that would be much lulz.

I don't really like the thought of Bay 12/DF related objects being marketed by third parties like this.  Whatever the intentions are, when money's involved, things can tend to turn sour, and I don't want to be entangled in any arrangements with anybody.  Such an enterprise would also put me in a position where I feel like I have to make sure somebody's not profiting unfairly from my work, and I have no idea how something like that could be monitored.

Fair enough.   I will burn all of my DF t-shirt diagrams (a napkin with a picture of a [ on it)
