Sorry, apparently "thinking about a response" and "responding" are two
different things.
First, thank you.
Second, I've seen some of the embroidery stuff based on an email to this
list sent back in 2005, and though I am not a particular fan of
embroidery,* I am also not well-informed about its potential. I do have
a lot of faith in your sense aesthetics, aardvark (crazy but its true)
Maybe it's being on the west coast, we tend to be more about
screen-print t-shirts and hoodies. I never wear polo shirts (which I
associate more with embroidery but I could be wrong.)
I like t-shirts; the problem with them is the expense that comes with
lots of colors, and color really is a big part of our logo.
I was inspired by this: http://simplebits.com/shop/ This shirt is
simple, elegant, sells well. Once we're all drupalized, would not a
black & white RSS feed icon look cool on a shirt-front? evolt.org logo
on back or sleeve...
and the oldschool tagwear... that was well-done stuff. Whatever we
choose, we should have IMO limited edition, well-designed, items. I am
on board with your process aardvark and as I said before, I trust your
aesthetics.

Sounds great to me.
thanks,
