CDO Forums

If we can get this done by June I'll wear mine to Gamesday in Baltimore!

Keep it not to crazy will work the best IMHO. In fact while cool I don't tthink that the CDO banner is the right thing to do:

- CDO title with actual address in smaller font.
- 1 graphic, maybe 2, and definitely not the full CD head

As far as intellectual property... it depends on what is used. GW can bluster all they want but if we are not making money of this. In fact by providing the graphics rather then the actual shirt they would be only extremely poor ground for any potential lawsuit. If there is nothing trademarked on the shirt they are on even shakier ground.

Lastly I highly doubt the rune of Hashut is a trademark. Copywright is a whole 'nother aspect to IP...

Whose got experience in t-shirt design?

Why "reinvent the wheel" we should look into this: http://www.cafepress.com

We could probably do it through here...

We'll just have to keep looking then, this is just one site that came to mind. I'm sure there are other, on demand print services out there. To keep a unified look whe should limit the colors of the tees. Red and black only?

Knight-problem is using actual artwork. If we use it it invites GWs wrath. We would be better served by text of our own devising...

Xander-300 dpi is the best to go with. JPEG should be fine. I'm sure most can accept a PDF as well assuming its created to the right specs.

Here are some ideas for T-shirts... Xander needs to get me the font for CDO...

I just slapped the rune on the shirts ft position of the graphic. Whatever it might end up being.

What's the status of this....?

Don't make me have to go all "Dark Lord of the Sith" on everyone...

*cough* i did 5

Those push pins even look like hats... er wait what am i saying>? I don't like hats.

Agreed, best to avoid copyright issues altogether and use original work

Really  a gray area that is open to interpretation... My take is that they use a corrupted version of dwarf runes.

Thanks

About the runic writing - apart from being completely unreadable for majority of people (including gamers) isn't the runic alphabet also a matter of copyright issue?
Anyway, I agree with Pyro - simple English will be the best choice. Most people can read and understand this language.

That's why there's supposed to be a banner on the back Also there could be the website's address on the front. For example:
Certified by http://www.chaos-dwarfs.com

Or something similar. Actually I have another idea for a catchy sentence (however there might be a legal problems):
Slaver inside

I've actually had 12 of the following printed up:



Sizes are as follows:
5 Large
4 Extra Large
2 Medium (Kera? and Sojourn?)

Cost is something like $7.70. So once I get them I'll post back here for first come first serve. I'm not looking to make a profit, however shipping and handling (i.e. materials) will apply.

Stay tuned. I went with something simple to a) avoid trademark infringement and b) to have something to wear to Gamesday Baltimore in June.

A small local company here in the US to print I did the layout myself, all 5 minutes that it took to do.

Funny you should mention this thing about "new artwork"...

All I can say is... be prepared to be stunned by the kick butt cover Baggronor produced... Roll on end of June for the webzine!

Any considerations for T-shirts need to be run by Baggronor first if his artwork is going to be on it. Its a prudent thing to do as time goes by and more is added to this thread...

Just got word that the T-Shirts are done! I should be picking them up very shortly! Yah!

Not sure yet. I'll have some information posted later tonight about ordering.

Is there any possible way to tidy up this thread or creat a more organized one? It is so very hard to follow

Stupid question how large is the large? I can fit medium for some shirts, large for others, while I really would like to support the site with a shirt, I don't want to sport a dress!
