Hm. I was wondering, if I made some uniquely designed shirts and sold them would (Alex primarily since he owns the site) be offended if I put "wrongplanet.com- Aspergers and Autism Community" At the bottom, or incorperated it into the shirt? I think having a uniquely designed shirt would get people's attention more and maybe we could get attention off of Autism Speaks?

I don't know I am waiting for permissions before I do anything like that.

you'd have to show me the design (and it's wrongplanet.net not com). I would most likely be ok with it but I'd have to approve the design first.

by the way, here are the official tshirts: http://cafepress.com/wrongplanet2

thank you for taking the time to respond. I will make the designs up shortly. I already have a few ideas. <3

I was tempted to do a 3d model of the 'wrong planet guy' (if it has a name..;). Did the head, after a fashion. Problem is rigging it to work in other programs. Just need detailed(!?) or not-so-detailed pics...

Actually I'd be more in favor of shirts that had a funny one-liner on them in large letters, then had

www.wrongplanet.net (and the little green guy) underneath them in fairly small print.

There was a good thread a while ago where people talked about slogans they'd like to see.

I need a t-shirt to wear to IEP meetings:

"Education Queensland has given you sh*tloads of extra funding for my child. So don't complain to me about your budget"

:lol:
