That's a pretty cool idea. Maybe you could also give one out for free to people who donate more than 50$ to the site, it might be really good encouragement together with the "lifetime membership". I'd surely buy one. I'm not too big about going around advertising websites though, even if it's a great one such as this... could some shirts just be hipforum oriented, but without a big clear "Visit www.hipforums.com" sign? Anyhow, if ya make any smalls, I'll go for it.
Shirts would be an awesome idea! How about Tye-Dye? I don't car. I'll wear it no matter what it looks like or says!!
It's possible to buy tie-dyes with a space screened out where you can put your message. I think they're rather expensive tho...
We can have quite a variety, but for time's sake we will need to narrow down the options. We won't be able to do custom designs for everyone. Yes, we may offer an incentive for lifetime memberships, but not right now.
without a doubt I'd buy one, or two three lol of these shirts.... and I agree with having the small sizes.. otherwise I wouldn't be able to get one and wear it comfortably.. :-( and i'm all for the tie-dye shirt!!!
You could even make some retro style joints, with bubble letters and flowers and doves! Ok, this is just a dream of mine. Once again, sad. But hey I love the idea Just think of how many forum members you may have walked right past, or even bumped into, without having any idea! But with a t-shirt, you may even be greeted on the city streets by your fellow cyber space comrades! God im such a nerd. Fuck it, I dont care I LOVE it
Thanks for all the enthusiasm! It's quite likely that Hippy.com will be done up with bubble type letters & lots of psychedelic shit around it! OK, you're welcome to start submitting design ideas now! If you want to actually submit a design (rather than just an idea), we'd prefer it if you don't go overboard and spend a lot of time on it without first checking with us on the idea itself and finding out what kind of technical requirements we have for it. Many ppl have good ideas but can't implement them well because they're not graphics experts. So unless you really are good at it, just send us the idea. No need to spend lots of time creating a graphic that we won't be able to use. OK? Otherwise let your imaginations run free! Once I get some pricing in hand for shirts and iron-on transfer media, I should be able to get a handle on how many different designs we can consider using. A design contest is not out of the question!
I'm not sure about a t-shirt but I would take a hipforums sticker and slap it on the side of my computer along with all my others ;-) . Of course the sticker would have to be a scratch and sniff that smelled like marijuana lol..
i wanted one a long time ago... but now, concidering what i post about... i really would not want to advertise my playground. EDIT also, please if you choose to do this, don't use iron ons. they dont last, and they feel weird. silk screens are cheap to make or buy. and once you develop a stencil for the shirts, the stencil can be used over and over.
