Esteemed ChucKists... It seems that the shirt plan has drifted to the bottom of the priority stack. There were some ideas on that but nothing final. We had a picture of Guile (from Street Fighter), we had "chuck spork shred", "realtime isn't fast enough" and it occured to me that "powertools can maim" (from the Audicle video) would be fun as well. I might have missed one or two? I still think we need a shirt but I myself suck at organising such things. Is there still demand? Can we reach a consensus on a good slogan/design? Is there somebody with convenient access to a press and organisational responcibility? else is something like cafe press acceptable? I'll just asume at least somebody can make a design conform to printers demands? On the other hand, perhaps this plan drifted away from the list's atention because Tshirts might be completely out of fashion and now everybody wants sloganed chamber-robes? Kas.
I forgot to mention the mode of production of my t-shirt. My friend had a party where we were doing this. He had a roll of acetate (like the stuff in overhead projector transparencies). We printed out designs from an inkjet printer and used an xacto knife to cut out the stencil. Then we mixed half and half acrylic paint and fabric medium. We used a paint roller to paint the design over the stencil. All in all it was a good time, and not too much work. I'm still experimenting with hand-painting to get the classic 3-color logo.

here's a couple "chuck spork shred" ideas in a Word document. Can't get the font I like into my old old Photoshop. ---- Joe M.
you do realize that if we don't have your favorite fonts installed on our
computers, we won't be able to see them right? because word will substitute
them for local fonts?
Try building a PDF out of it, so that fonts can be embedded.

I had the same issue; I don't use a office program and instead have Gmail interpert the occasional Doc file. It ended up looking not even mono-spaced (which I think it should be considdering the format and the topic?) A image file might be the way to go here as a mock-up? Also; we have loads of ideas right now as well as a set of people who want shirts. Should we have a vote? Does the Wiki support polls? Kas.
