hey now I'm an engineer not an artist :) So is admin thats why I tried to copy the artistic style in the website. and Admin canned my baby outfit with the logo and "future robot builder" on it. :) If you have better ideas let me know and we can modify the images on the shirts. I personally will buy the polo shirt someday when I remember and have the extra funds for it.

hmmm
better designs.....

Heres a few "types" of Tshirts that we might consider:
   xcept with robots on it
Sketchy style  http://www.threadless.com/product/1461/Modern_Kangaroos  have a robot with

What I really want to see happen is some Tshirt with a cartoony drawing and underneath some clever words - what would be cool is if we "rewrote" the 3 laws of robotics , make it some funny laws. Like for example : a robot must not work until the creator has spent hours trying to figure out that the power connector is in backwards"  or osmething like that

I think it is a great idea to sell robot-themed t-shirts; I always wanted a shirt that was somewhat related to robots (but they don't usually sell them at your local Target...).  :P Personally, I think they should have interesting/funny pictures under or above the words (like airman00 suggested), instead of text-only shirts (even engineers/scientists/hobbyists like shirts with some style).  I also like the idea of using them as a prize in your robot contests.  There was a thread a while back that had a funny quote that could work on a shirt; it was something like this:

"We are creating machines that will eventually become Skynet, and you're worried about {insert object here}"

(I do not claim ownership to this quote, all rights belong to its owner).  I thought it was a good robot/Terminator joke.  ;D

P.S.  Off topic for a second, someone mentioned The Orange Box a few posts back; it's quite a wonderful game(s), well worth buying.  ;D

Whoa, that is creepy in so many ways (people shaped like eggs that wear robot t-shirts?!).  :o :P :D  Indeed, the Disney Channel has become very weird...

Id wear a shirt like that with just a plain blue robot. But I assume admin wants to advertise on the shirts

We might be able to make one that had the robot on the front and a small print www.societyofrobots.com on the back at the base of the collar.

omg! I saw that cartoon on TV this weekend when I was on vacation in San Diego. The only thing I had handy was my phone so I shot a video of it to post on here to ask if there was some relation. Damn you beat me to it. My wife came out of the shower and I was filming the TV screen. She was like wtf are you doing.

hmm.... love the T-Shirt.

This would be perfect for Aiko to wear for public appearance one day.

Airman00 since you posted and quoted me, modifying my previous post no longer seems the right thing to do. So, I am going to have to double post. Really odd, this forum does not let one delete posts. o.O

Quick Explanation for previous post.  I uploaded this image on a "Free Image Hosting site"... It was De-res'd and was not of quality, so I went bact to the previous post and tried to correct it, I pressed Post instead of Preview(accident) and my post has a "." as a message.  I had to use my own server to host it(Something I avoided to save me time) but it ended up costing me more time in the long run... >_> anyhow....

I laughed really hard at this...

Person 1: So, what's your robot do?
Person 2: It collects data about the surrounding environment, then discards it and drives into walls!
 
  ^ Just brilliant... and true^

 This is an Idea I came up with for the T-shirt. 


The line reads: "Most think that the robots we make are to make our lives easier and problem free...They clearly havent meet my robots"

 You may access the image directly here if you want to see a better version of it.

Thanx ArchMan~!  :D
