Haha, I made a t-shirt a while ago showing star control ships destroying starwars/star trek ships. Not as well done as the 2 on PONAF, but it was fun.

I'd upload a picture, but I dont have web access..

It appears I've found the right place to show off my obsessive fanboy-ism.  Hooray!  Smiley

Getting a shirt made is a no-brainer: there are literally dozens of custom t-shirt shops online, and most have "design studios" built-in to their webpages, which allows you to submit a custom design + shipping address, and you can enjoy your very own one-of-a-kind t-shirt a week later.  The only trick to it is that most will not do custom prints on black shirts, for a variety of reasons involving the how the screenprinting process works.  Of course, this is only a concern for me, because I only wear black.  If you do not share this eccentricity, then the field to choose from is wide indeed.

Getting art assets for such an endeavour is similarly a no-brainer: crack open the content files and feast on the chewy goodness inside.  In my case, I took the Kohr-Ah captain portrait, enlarged it and rounded the corners with GIMP, and that was it.

This shirt was actually "Plan B".  "Plan A" was to beg and plead with Arne to draw me something nice to put on a shirt, but I decided that doing so would be ostentacious, even by my standards.  Wink  Of course, if he were to offer up designs on his own, who could object to that?

"Plan B" is going to be more recognized by fellow dorks as you're walking around town, though.  Superb!

Sorry for bumping a slightly-aged thread.... but I've always wanted to make one of these:

"I sold 100 crew members to the Druuge... and all I got was this lousy t-shirt!"

That's great. I've had a few geek shirts made
but none in the SC2 theme. Maybe it's time
to expand. Something semi-religious maybe...

"We would follow the path of Now and Forever"
has a nice ring to it.
