You're going to produce the shirt, so just do it, and this thread was a total waste of time giving our input if you're not going to listen to our suggestions.

Just produce the shirt and be done with it. it will sell, just not as many as a shirt with the actual SB.com logo on it. At least in my opinion anyway.

I needed to see if I can cover the minimum production run, litteraly $2000, if there would be enough interest. That was the purpose of the thread. I may still do it I may not do it. I'm really not sure at this point. I don't NEED to make money on this shirt but I can't LOOOSE money on it.

So without sounding like a jackbutt, I'm not doing anything else on a shirt for a while because I'm tired of working til one in the morning on a shirt, and getting pissed at myself for taking my vacation days from my real job to work on this instead of working on my boat, taking my kid fishing, or all of the other "fun" things I could have been doing.

We've had half a dozen threads asking for shirts. When I ask for a slogan, I get a couple jokes and attempts. When I asked for a logo / symbol, I get a lot of art directors and little art. No general consensus. Guess I should have expected that this time too.
