GreatGold Posted July 2, 2003 Report Share Posted July 2, 2003 Hey - So I'm surfing another Open Source project, JSBSim, and find this link:http://www.cafeshops.com/cp/store.aspx?s=jsbsim Talk about giving me ideas... What do you all think?Gold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deimos Posted July 2, 2003 Report Share Posted July 2, 2003 Hmm, wearing game logos on apparel. I could go for it if it weren't some geeky thing (sorry guys) like they have on their shirts, but if we had some kind of symbol or reference other than emblazoning xenocide across the shirt (and I don't know why anyone would want game related underware ) it might work. The T-shirts would have to be black of course and we couldn't do the alien eyes as that's been done to death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c4t Posted July 3, 2003 Report Share Posted July 3, 2003 i would buy a black xenocide shirt with a logo on it. make a good logo. I WANT ONE, NOW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hArk Posted July 3, 2003 Report Share Posted July 3, 2003 Make sure we get some designs up on forum and discuss it to death before it sent to be made soon after the public release need to make sure they are sold. I seen to many game based designs which doesn’t look like I could wear it in public Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenshiro Posted July 3, 2003 Report Share Posted July 3, 2003 We could use cafepress. I've used them before and they're pretty good, although a tad on the expensive side. Only problem is that they don't do black merchandise - your shirt options are either white or athletic gray. But, since they do product design, customer service, order fullfillment, and billing for free as long as you submit a highres graphic, you can't really go wrong. The only real question is: who gets the money? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breunor Posted July 3, 2003 Report Share Posted July 3, 2003 I think the cash would go first to those fronting the cost of the site, Micah I expect spends the most keeping this going. Anything beyond paying those bills IMO should go to a charity. Who would benefit more, each of us getting a dollar or two, or a good cause getting several hundred?

revenant4 Posted July 4, 2003 Report Share Posted July 4, 2003 I don't care what the design, I would get one...if it looks goofy I would just wear it for daily chores around the house...now a hat I would wear even to work... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red knight Posted July 4, 2003 Report Share Posted July 4, 2003 I want one if it is not in U$S.... By the way I like the charity idea, who knows maybe sometime in the future that could be posible... GreetingsRed Knight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puasonen Posted July 4, 2003 Report Share Posted July 4, 2003 I like the charity idea too.. I definitely would buy a shirt if the money would go 5-15% micah (new harddisks, and stuff that makes distribution of xenocide better in the future) and 85-95% to charity (something against smoking and drugs, or against starvation in african countrys)..

Guest Jim69 Posted July 4, 2003 Report Share Posted July 4, 2003 !Nah, only j/king ne way, just in case some peeps now think there is a crack addict wannabe programmer postin away merrily, high as a kite Damn, I think I am just dragging this post further and further off topic I recon that if there is a desire for some Xenocide branded goods, then great, and the charity idea is fantastic, if we can help some peeps less fortunate than us with some cash then all the greater.

c4t Posted July 4, 2003 Report Share Posted July 4, 2003 whoa, 85-95 percent charity? this isnt a charity drive, i think thats a bit too much. i would give what we can spare. and i dont think xenocide shirts would look good in white or athletic grey. black all the way. so i could wear it to school. i dont think i could wear white to school though, if we had to do caffee press i would get a mousepad and mug most likely.

Guest Jim69 Posted July 5, 2003 Report Share Posted July 5, 2003 Well, what else is the money gonna go to? I say pay some towards the server and the like, and the rest goes to charity. Hmm, just had a thought. This project is fairly big right now, and when knowledge expands a little, maybe we could convince some PC gaming magazines to contribute a little for the server and to charity in return 4 some product placement ( on signposts and the like ). Obviously not now, but maybe when the game is in a working state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatGold Posted July 5, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2003 Hey - We also need money to for hardware and software. I could see some of it going to that as well. Gold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jim69 Posted July 5, 2003 Report Share Posted July 5, 2003 Well, yeah. I can see them agreeing as long as none of it is profit, 4 things like servers etc. they should be cool. Plus it would be a 2 way exposure 4 both the magazine in game, and the game in the mag, which would be pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c4t Posted July 5, 2003 Report Share Posted July 5, 2003 i buy gaming mags occasionally, but if there was one with xenocide in it i would scoop it up and hug it and maybe sleep with it next to me, then maybe i would try to feed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deimos Posted July 5, 2003 Report Share Posted July 5, 2003 Well if any of the art team can get some seriously considerable designs for tshirts and such it can't hurt to post them. Even if it were just a development team thing. I'm actually warming to the idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c4t Posted July 5, 2003 Report Share Posted July 5, 2003 http://www.xcomufo.com/forums//index.php?s...?showtopic=1530 i think the 4th one may work on mugs or maybe even a mousepad. i would like to see it go there. it probably wouldnt work on a black t shirt though :-/.
