Alright guys, this should actually be some fun. I am going to roll out a merch section for the site, that lets us order individual pieces of merch. None of this buy $1500 worth of swag crap. It is excellent that we can do it this way, because, lets face it, none of us want to hold onto that much merch until it gets paid off.
So, we need a logo. This is where the contest comes in. Design one, we'll vote on it, and whoever wins gets a free tshirt.
Keep these things in mind:
1. It needs to fit on a tshirt.
2. Keep it appropriate. No naked ladies, bad words, those sort of things. We will be wearing these in public, and its advertising for the site, and we want to project a good image.
3. No direct copyright violations. If you use a fender style headstock, make sure it doesn't have an "F" or something on it.
4. Be realistic. They're going on shirts, so it can't be some uber detailed Sistine chapel masterpiece. Although I'll rep you if thats what you put up.
5. Lets stick to a couple of things at first: tshirts, hoodies, ball caps. That sort of thing. If you really want to do more, please, go ahead, but for the sake of the voting, pm me your submissions, otherwise I think it will be to hard to keep track of.

Get some ideas flowing. I'll post up a template of some sort here in a few minutes. Just FYI, here are the sort of things we can add logos to besides normal apparel: mouse pads, water bottles, christmas ornaments, beer mugs, coffee mugs.
Have fun with this. We'll vote at the end of the month, that way everybody can have time to see this and make something. Post up what you have in the meantime so we can see.
If you see any artwork on the site you would find helpful, PM me and I will provide it. As long as it isn't property of a vendor, or somebody else. Also, the artwork chosen, and any artwork that ends up being used will obviously be property of the website.
