Choose your design and make a Cafe Press store and order a t-shirt in whatever style or size you like.

Yeah they don't make many nerdy shirts for smaller sizes, go figure. I took up sewing for that reason alone. I mostly just modify them myself, which works out kick-ass-ly because you can alter them to flatter your own particular body shape.

Actually, Cafe Press is getting very picky about potential copyright infringements in their stores. I tried to put my Mafia shirts in a store and they rejected the design because the originating artwork that I Photoshopped came from elsewhere.

It still seems to be possible to order individual infringing items for personal use, you just can't offer them for public consumption through CP stores.

Because you're too skinny. If you REALLY wanted a Star Trek shirt, you'd gain weight.

Cafepress sucks, I'm going to manufacture a bunch of my shirt designs locally and sell them online (I'd tried to run a cafepress site awhile back as I'd designed some pretty damn funny shirts that a lot of people said they would buy, but I thought the prices were bullshit).

I'm sick to death of people jacking up the s&h prices on things, people get pissed off at work (I'm one of those people 'standing by' at 3:00 am when the h20 vac people are on TV) because they live in the same province the thing is shipped FROM, yet they pay thirty bucks of s&h...and I can't take much more bullshit. Bullshit is one thing when I have to listen to it, but when I have to actually PERPETUATE it, like some fecalesque memetophenomenological VIRUS, that really pisses me off.

Also, Q (like me) is apparently an ENTP personality type.

I as well. Where did you read that? Makes sense, but it's amusing.

Why thank you kind sir! If it isn't too much to ask, would you mind accompanying your kind gesture with say, a karma point? I just noticed I've racked up a large quantity of the negs.

I second this motion, however one appears to be presently in progress over in Anyanka's birthday thread, and it would be inconvenient should people have to choose which to attend...

My apologies...perhaps you could be an honourary dude for that post so I don't need to go and modify it?
