WarBoards Market

[AJ]

You can discuss the market and my announcement about it here.

[Fenguin]

AJ, will you marry me?

[Schwitzer]

Looks like Jen has a little compitition :o

[Graeme]

Mmm, I'd wear a WBL t-shirt ^_^. I'm sure Anna would too. I just have to find a way to convince my dad to lend me his CC again . . . hmmmm . . .

[GrassDragon]

I like it. The look doesn't match up with the boards at all, though I'm sure that's on purpose (:P). I wouldn't buy a WB Life t-shirt, but mark me down for a plan WB one.

[kongurous]

Hm.. perhaps personalized shirts? What I mean is, a shirt have a certain member's screenname, avatar, and custom title on one end, and [warboards.org] on the other. It'd be like:


Name
custom title
AVATAR

[GrassDragon]

Except that custom titles and avatars change all the time. Usernames don't though, and I'd say add that to a shirt.

[Kazansky]

Where's the T-shirt?? I WANNA SEE IT!!!

[AJ]

Market Updated.

Logo Tee now available.

[GrassDragon]

Looks good AJ. Was this the logo picked from the extremely old "design a WB logo" thread?

[Zeltaris]

Hm.. perhaps personalized shirts? What I mean is, a shirt have a certain member's screenname, avatar, and custom title on one end, and [warboards.org] on the other. It'd be like:


Name
custom title
AVATAR
I'm all for custom T-shirts, although the cost might go a wee bit up :P

Except that custom titles and avatars change all the time. Usernames don't though, and I'd say add that to a shirt.

Just have the member pick a picture and a witty phrase and you're all set. If they change their avy/CT later on, it's their fault, no?
Of course, that means he/she might be tempted to buy another one afterwards ;)

EDIT: On a side note. I love the design for the logo tee. Simple, sleek... 1337
That's the sort of thing I'd buy :D

[Neo]

You know it would be cool if there were simple WB stuff -- IE things that like cafepress does, like BallCaps, Mousepads, etc...

Which would just be awesome. Since id wear a warboards cap everywhere ^_^

-Neo

[Erwinator]

that good sirs was awesome, I want one.

[Sikawtic]

I think theXenon's bomb WB symbol should be on a tee, that thing is cool.

[Basan]

I think theXenon's bomb WB symbol should be on a tee, that thing is cool.

Hear, hear. This one I'd prob'ly buy. Btw, anyone seen the 'tiker' around lately, anyway? Or he simply went under the lurkin' mode? I sorta miss his profile 'round. :)

[Magmaniac]

i have a suggestion for a shirt-
have it covered with names of as many active users as you can cram on i
I'd probably buy one if my name was on it, but not otherwise.

yay

[Demon_Child]

If active means "non-spammers" then I wouldn't mind one. ;)

[Schwitzer]

When are the little AJ action figurines going to be produced?

[AJ]

All in due time, Gerard. ;)

[Geno]

Yes! Then I can pin one to my dartboard... I mean... Set him in front of the rack on a billiards table... I mean... Crap...

P.S. Warboards.org on the front and back = sexplzkthx

[kongurous]

I'm gonna ignore that, as I have followed the rules pretty well since the war on spam started.

[IceFlare]

I think if we had a collab picture of all the staff as of 2004 or 2005? in vector art or anime would be sick

http://www.warboards.org/showthread.php?t=371&page=1&pp=40&highlight=staff+picture

It's been tried. I tried to rejuvinate it at the end, but some people came in with more pictures and nothing got done. Good luck trying to find someone to actually draw them all in a decent amount of time.

[IceFlare]

No I mean if we had a real life pic of all the staff... I could turn them all to vectors, isolate the head and there we would have it.

[TranquilNightElf]

Way to go AJ :) great work !!

Now, when is that nude calendar going up for sale ..erm.. I mean caps.. yeah that's it ;)
The shirt looks cool. A group staff photo + some customization (at an additional cost) would be excellent. How much is it going to be for ?

[singo]

I'm gonna ignore that, as I have followed the rules pretty well since the war on spam started.

Not actually ignoring it posting in response is it?

Still, drop the spammer bashing, if we were still doing it our names would be red and crossed out as they are not, we are not breaking the rules anymore. New leaf and all that....


T-shirts are good, especially customized ones...but getting a mouse to explode on a T-shirt is not possible unless you want to be arrested for cruelty to animals....so no avatar one for me...

Still, some caps would be nice. That logo is kinda nice too.

[Darkslayer633]

Now, when is that nude calendar going up for sale


NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Well now for the non spam part, I suggest names on the sleeves as a posibility with a slight extra cost mabye a dollar or so whatever is needed to make a small profit in each name.
I love the logo but mabye if you keep the logo small on the front as it is and again for a small fee have the choice to have the logo big on the back.

and mabye the psooibility of not only t-shirts, but the addition of hoodies, mabye jackets, or some other apparell but I know I'd love to hace a WB hoodie.

[Neo]

Is anyone really going to want thier forum name on a tshirt? I mean the fact your going to wearing a wb.org tshirt is enough to scream dork, but you want to put your username on their to? :P

Itl be interesting when things get going -- we could have tshirts/caps for each site, ones for starcraft, ones for warcraft and some for diablo :D

-Neo

[AJ]

we could.. but we can't use any copyrighted blizzard artwork. so feel free to brainstorm some ideas.

and i'll be adding in some new items as time progresses -- i'm sorry for the delay, but i must wait to sell them until our federal tax id and everything else is solid and in place. it shouldn't be too long.

If your username is actually a name you use? I cant remember the last time any of my mates called me "Liam"

I AM singo.

Ya know, it could just be when the mouse says BANZAI! and its eyes turn red. that'd look kickass.

[singo]

Hmm, good idea, I might actually make one of those, like I made a "F*CK THE PATRIOTS" one for the superbowl.

Custom T-shirts are great. pity the iron-on transfers come off quickly though.

[Schwitzer]

The WarBoards shirts are going to be much better quality than iron-on transfers ;)

Also... do you guys really want something with a group picture of the staff? Call me naïve, but... why?

[UnHoly-Assassin]

Naw I wouldn't wear a shirt of guys (and gals) off of the internet. A dartboard would be nice.

Heh, seriously, any photo of the staff would be nice if posted online.

[GrassDragon]

Uhh, no... "why?" is right.

[Neo]

mmm though I wouldnt say no to special staff-only tshirts or caps ^_^

Warboards Staff caps would just be nifty XD

"Look at me! I'm a staff member! : D"

(I would've added that sentence if I had room)

Disclaimer:
For those of you who are dim of wit, these designs are intended to be humorous and not taken as a serious design. That said, the idea of staff shirts had crossed my mind... might pay to get our other merchandise going first, though. :)

[Neo]

Smartass :P

Doesnt have to be Tshirts -- personally id rather have a cap.

Something that's only for the staff -- like those Security TShirts ya know? :P

Anyways, as for copyright infringement... Cant we do kind of what Diabloii.net did? Just there logo + "the unofficial resource for diablo" or whatever? We wouldnt have to use actualy game graphics or anything.

Weez. speaking of which, I seriously need a new mousepad, my old one is disentegrating (seriously)

-Neo

[Night-Hawk]

I want to be staff so I can get some warborads clothing I love this place :D:):D I'm willing to pay the price

[singo]

Well then, make sensible posts, dont flame and dont screw up your chances of being staff (like a few of us did a couple months ago).

Just wait till the press gang comes along and gets you drunk, you will wake up aboard the mod-ship forced to work day and night.

Or not, but it would be good if that was actually how they recruited. (WB that is, I KNOW thats how press-gangs work, when they want to be subtle :P)

[Schwitzer]

You don't have to be a staff member to get WarBoards merchandise. All WarBoards members are eligible.

[Mtank]

perhaps we shuld have a contest of sorts where people can submit simple artwork/logos/cartoons and the best are picked to be put on t-shirts, if it is convenient.

[Night-Hawk]

That sounds intresting

[L2_1989]

That's a good idea.

[Night-Hawk]

Alright gues no one seen this so i'm ganna bump it :) so we can see what people would like i'm ganna start on my lil picture hope to see more :)

[Markpyro]

when exactly are these T-Shirts going to be available for purchase?

[CrankyBuddha]

I would find it compelling to use the warboards market if we were able to, as members, customize our own shirts, like, with pictures or whatever we wanted on them. Im thinkin a scowling buddha on the front of mine, and crankybuddha in the font from my siggy accross the back. Oh jeah, id pay up to $50 for that peice of work.

If you'd pay 50 bucks for it, you're crazy. There's a T-Shirt place around here that'd make you a custom design for at most like 35-40 bucks, if you get even some of the best materials. Think about what you're posting, too. It's a one of a kind thing. I don't think a "Community" site will offer one of a kind crap, unless it's like autographs or something...

we won't offer that specialized of apparel.
if you're interested though, you can contact me -- i do run the custom apparel company that will be making all of the product for ORG.

Ah well, i did say up to 50 bucks, one, and two, i just figured that if the site was making money off of it, noone would give a damn if we requested custom shirts, and its too bad that there are 20k + members, or we could have warboards.org on the front and everyones name listed on the back. muahahahhaha. it would work if u found a small enough font.

[Sikawtic]

Is this still a possibility? It's still stickied and stuff... and I think it's a good idea.

oh well i might just do that. like. 6+ months ago? :p

i think AJ is still working out whatever it is with the apparel company. among other things

[Schwitzer]

AJ is a busy boi, but I hope when things settle down a bit he churns out some products. I'd still like to see caps added to the market.
