[IC] Keyboard T-Shirts - Post your ideas!
« on: Sat, 06 February 2016, 15:51:52 »
I have a local screenprinting shop that does t-shirts very cheaply. As long as I got around 25 or more orders, the shirts would be like $7-$10 each, depending on the number of colors (before shipping). I know there's been a good number of keyboards t-shirts on here recently, but I would like to run some as a benefit for a charity (this would make them more like $12 each, so I could include a donation). I would really like to bring people the designs they're most attached to though, so if people could post some ideas, perhaps we could have a poll as to which one people want. The turnaround on the shirts is fairly fast (like 2 days) after we do orders, so I'd like to get this moving and all put together fairly quickly.

Please post some suggestions as to designs!

Not sure yet, perhaps that's something people could vote on as well. I always make sure to do extensive research into the charities I donate to when I do projects like this though. Doctors without borders is a favourite of mine, but as I said, I'm open to anyone's input.

I think this is a wonderful idea. Is love to help raise some money for a good charity and a keyboard related t-shirt makes doing so even better.

+1 but SKCL :p

Would be great to have a Nixdorf or Displaywriter or something, but I'm not familiar with branding/copyright issues.

I mean to be honest this would be small enough scale that it wouldn't really be an issue. Just like artisans that are in star wars shapes or whatever.

I'd be interested in helping out with the shirt design! Let me know what the final idea is and I'll give a shot at something using few colours and a simplistic graphic
Here's my [current portfolio link][http://outragedpudding.deviantart.com/] which probably doesn't fit, but I have two keyboard drawings in the works that could fit this pretty well if interested. Please let me know if you're interested!
