T-shirts and mugs

Would you be interested in RepRap merchandise such as T-shirts, caps, coffee mugs, mouse pads, etc.?

We wouldn't do this to make money (although there may be a small margin), this would mainly be so we could wear a little piece of a cool project, and spread the word.

I'm just curious to gauge opinion.

Please use the poll above to let us know...

Just as an experiment, there's a little shop set up. It is hosted free of charge by CafePress:

[www.cafepress.com]

The current design is pretty basic. If there is any reasonable demand, we can switch to a more customised shop that will fit in better with the site and we can have a bit more variety of products then too. The only thing is that costs US$7 per month, so we'd have to sell at least a few items every month to justify it.

But more importantly, the current design is a bit bland.

Does anybody have any cool ideas to jazzing them up? Or any slogan suggestions?

i can talk to a couple graphic designer friends here at work and see if they'd be interested in making a nice design for it. that would be pretty cool.

That sounds cool.

And if anybody else wants to come up with ideas/slogans/designs, I'm sure we could give away a shirt or something for the best one.

By the way, when I say coming up with a slogan, that doesn't mean we'd want to replace the current slogan "Wealth without money...". I'm thinking of some T-shirty slogan that would be in addition to the logo and so on, like

Reprappers do it one on top of another

or

I'm saving the world, what are you doing?

or other such types of silliness...

Is the logo printed on top or under the glaze? I assume that it is under because is says that it's dishwasher safe.

Is there any reason why the RepRap logo is green?

One of the mugs arrived here yesterday. The print is very good. It is under the glaze.
