Tshirt design

Ok it has been suggested that a Tshirt may be in order ,
Ideas ???
I think it should be 2-3 colors MAX , nothing TO horribly offensive ( Thanks Janet and Justin ),

Idea 1) 3 monkeys on the front right brest area , cellar tag line on the back .

Idea 2) front or back ,

I love the idea. I also love the above cartoon hehe.
To be frank, the tag line will only be so much gibberish to most, but the three monkeys will be instantly recognisable to those in the know.
Therefore I think the shirt be designed for our enjoyment and to that end I propose the back should be covered in small print tag lines. All of them. Past, present and proposed.
If nothing else it'd make a great conversation piece.
However they end up i'm gonna buy two. One to wear and one to shelve. I would ask that each one has our individual user name and joining date.

Instead of 3 monkeys, 3 toads.

Well a toad on the brest close to the heart , that could work . But it HAS to be a COOL toad , not just some damn frog looking thing .

How about the 3 monkeys on the sleeve ??

Tag lines on the back , that could work .

Indivigual Tshirts with the sign on dates and handels would be WAY to much trouble .

How about Cellar ASSHATS , with the saying "ASSHAT planted firmly in place ! "

Could you make it look like the monkeys were flying out of our butts?

The taglines on the back and the monkeys (and of course, the toad--UNDER the monkeys) are definitely a must-have.

3 monkies on the front left breast (on the pocket optional)

large toad on the back at the top, sitting on the words "the cellar"

top ten (as chosen by a rigorous round of polls and playoffs) tag lines below
the blue from the words at the top left "cellar" on white t shirt.

tag lines alternate grey and white background with authors credited as it appears on the actual cellar, dates, titles, sigs and all.

alan, warch, draw us a toad. a good one with lots of warts.

Logo on the back exactly as seen in upper left hand corner of our monitors. Beneath that, the Top Ten Taglines. On the front, with only his head coming out of the pocket, The Toad, with "Undertoad, Proprietor" in a semicircle or arch around/over/under the pocket.

UT gets to pick the Toad art.

i just remembered that i have a good customer that owns a tshirt printing business.

I'll call him monday and ask him for some pricing.

if we decide on a design, i could get him to make them. i also think we should set up a profit margin for toad.



can we get by with 2 colors?

All procedes go to toad for the cellar , from the cellar .
