I am thinking of designing and making high quality robot related t-shirts offered on this site . . . anyone think this a good idea, or have t-shirt ideas?

Shirts will have semi-funny semi-geeky things on them, like:

"Actively making humans obsolete."
"Building giant robots to battle aliens."
"You wont laugh when my robots take over the world."
"When I replace your body with robot parts, Ill let you keep your brain . . . in a jar."
"My wife is a robot."

Stuff like that . . . thoughts? My target cost is under $20, including shipping.

lol. what do you think?

The Segway some EEs at my college built has this kickass sticker on it. It's a black sticker with yellow text that says "Robots WILL kill you!".

I think an image of a mass of robots marching on Washington with picket signs saying "Repeal the 3 Laws!" or some variant thereof would be kinda funny too.

Then (not really a shirt idea, just something funny that is robot related), one of my friends has this quote on his facebook profile:
Person 1: So, what's your robot do?
Person 2: It collects data about the surrounding environment, then discards it and drives into walls!

How many of you guys have played Valve's "Portal" game?

ed1380 · « **Reply #10 on:** November 28, 2007, 10:45:24 PM »

I've played the flash 2d version of it.

can't afford the 3d version

That's a shame. Orange box is the best game investment you can make imo. A bunch of great games plus access to the plethora of free Source engine mods. Anyway, back on topic. I'm thinking of a design with the Lost in Space robot in it, I'll flesh it out during class tomorrow and post ideas later.

"One day, robots will take over the world...
... and I'll be building them!"

I've seen a bunch on CafePress.com... Maybe you should just upload them there...

So actually, I was talking to a friend last night about T-shirts.

I want to have one made before April to wear at this robot contest.

A shirt would make a good 3rd place prize for the SoR contest, too, no?

Anyway, my friend said she will look into some design ideas.

Ill have it up by March I promise!

Since I was always too busy (lazy) to ever find time for this, Asellith went and set up a shirt shop for SoR (thanks dude!):

http://www.cafepress.com/societyofrobots
(you can find a link to it on the main page as well)

As of the moment, 15% of the price goes to SoR - helps pay my premium server costs, tutorial parts costs, contest prizes, advertising costs, etc.

If anyone is seriously interested in buying a shirt, but don't like the current designs, feel free to post what you'd like to see!

pomprocker · « **Reply #24 on:** October 14, 2008, 06:13:08 PM »

I've never bought from cafepress...are they iron-ons? or screen printed?

Admin · « **Reply #25 on:** October 14, 2008, 10:29:05 PM »

Hmmmm good question, I had to look it up myself:
http://www.cafepress.com/cp/info/help/processes.aspx#dprint
They use a process called 'Direct Printing'

btw, forgot to mention I added a vote to this thread

I have a shirt from cafepress REALLY nice shirts. Good quality print job. doesn't flack off or crack. They have different quality depending on what shirt you buy but the one I got is a standard hanes T-shirt that is of good quality.

I bought a hat from Cafepress embroidered with "24tooth.com" logo (Lego Robotic Group of Ann Arbor), very nice hats and t-shirts.

airman00 · « **Reply #28 on:** October 16, 2008, 06:13:55 AM »

the design looks too plain for me
I'm no artistic guy , so sadly I can only say if its good or bad , I don't know how to fix it.
