It is difficult to do something like this. SSD is not as active as you think, and not enough people would buy the t-shirts to make it worth while. How many of you would buy more than one type of t-shirt? Would you just buy one, and be done with it?
If this would work, there would have to be other designs. Particularly designs that are not related to SSD. I for one would not buy a t-shirt that simple had an SSD logo and some text. I would want something stylish that had a point to it.

That's why the art group were going to make some. But as mentioned the cost issue and not enough interest soon reduced that idea.

I'm thinking that I'd want one (but I have zero money right now), especially if it were black. I'm in need of a black shirt. ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png)

I'm thinking that I'd want one (but I have zero money right now), especially if it were black. I'm in need of a black shirt. ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) That was the general consensus if I remember. Everyone would love the idea of art group t-shirts, just don't have the money to pay for them. Not that it's a bad thing of course, it's completely reasonable to want something but not have the money for it ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) Just means that we don't have the interest to make it worth while. It's not that we want to make lots of money (though it would be nice as an alternative way of paying the bills) but it's so we do not lose money over it so that we cannot afford to pay the website/hosting bills.

It's a good idea for raising funds. Well, if it had to be that way, I expect it would be something stylish..

We could do it on demand. We take orders, but make the shirts after the order comes in. Of course it will require a little bit of a wait, but who cares. As far as colours go, black and white are obviouslly going to be the more popular ones. I think it would be nice to find a shirt as close to the ssd colour as possible.

How about everyone pitches in by just getting a plain white T-shirt, getting a default design created by the SSD art group and going to a T-shirt printing shop and getting it printed your self - it cant come to much more that £10 over here in Britain (£5 printing £5 t-shirt) so £20 in US? Infact, it might work out cheaper if everone did it that way instead of buying it of SSD? Just a thought ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png)

That'd be nice if we all weren't lazy bums. ;D

We looked at doing this sort of thing before with the art group, it is a really nice idea. However, when we looked at the costs involved in producing them and having to distribute them ourselves etc we probably wouldn't make a profit from it or break even. Yes, there are places that do all that for free, but from what I've heard from others is that the quality is poor. Yup... =) Nice to see everyone...
