I'm not sure yet... I need to check out that Cafe Press site that whirly found... basicly, they'll put whatever you want on a shirt, and they charge 10.99 for a shirt, plus whatever you want to charge... so we'll send them a .jpg, and have em sell them at cost for all of us... they'll handle the shipping and everything.



I'm not sure what colors they have or what printing process they use... they might look like shit if they're anything besides black on white, but I'll look.

Hmmmm, they can put a picture on the back too!



Hey Ed, Can we put your guys picture on the back of a "Love is All" t-shirt?!? I mean, if it's not too much of a hassle with the record label and such?

Here we go... http://www.cafepress.com/loveisall



it just has the one shirt, just to test it out and see how the site worked... I won't be able to do the long one at work, not if I want the cyrillic and such...



Do people want it by itself in just their native languages? I can do that too... I'm allowed up to 50 different products.



and that $14.99 is the lowest you can charge for a shirt.

btw, that $14.99 is what the site charges, that involves no profit at all for myself... which is totally cools, since I'm a socialist, I don't believe in making profits....

think it might look better on a yellow tee? that lime one somehow is not too good to transport the message IMO.

as well (IMO) love is all should be written on the shirts in as many languages as possible. maybe love is all and all other languages translations in smaller size.

IMO ( ;-) ) *ahem* there shouldn't be a pic on the back but probably the chemical brothers logo as they are some kind of mentors of the love is all international project.

last thing... for being a socialist and for doing this all, i love you, stash! :D ...in a *ahm* friendly way ;-) ...

I'm going to do them with all the languages, I just don't have the right software at work...



I'd like to put their logo on the back, but then I might get a nasty letter from Astralwerks.



If there's anything anyone wants, that's not copyrighted, just make a 8"x10" .jpg of it and send it to me or post it here, and I'll put it on a shirt, thong, boxer shorts, whatever and put it in the shop.

thing is, you will only receive a nasty letter from astralwerks if you commercially use logos that are copyrighted. the chems logo is copyright but whatsoever the tees you design are for this forum only (am i right), you don not earn a bloody cent on those... it's self-made merchandise and nothing to make money with. so that should be okay.

I'm not making any money, but the cafepress people are making money off of them.



Maybe I'll do one that just has 'Love is All' in the dustmites font.

Wow, this shirt Idea's great! I think somewhere you should have the chemical brothers logo on it, spread the word and all.

What color is the shirt/font going to be in, can we choose?



I've always wanted a shirt the said CB on the front and then on the back it would have the album cover from surrender.

Cool!!! The thong made me laugh, can I have one honey? ;)



Here's what I think. Even though we don't want to make a profit and we won't, cafepress *is* making some money off of this - so much a profit as to offer a free vending service. The shirts they provide were probably purchased at a bulk rate, and their mark-up to the base price alone is likely well over 100% (which covers the cost of printing and whatever profit Cafepress makes.) The shirts would be accessible to the public and since Cafepress would be making some kind of a profit, it might be wise to exclude anything blatantly Chemical that might piss off Astralwerks/Virgin/EMI or the Brothers themselves. I love the Acid Clown shirt, but at this point it might be trademarked or copywrited (anyone know for sure?)



Personally I'd like to keep this low key and subtle, less is more... this shirt doesn't have to be a blatant advertisement for the Chems. We know what Love Is All is and who uses it in their gig visuals. ;) Pics of record sleeves or their faces aren't really necessary - it might get us in trouble. I think it would be better kept on the down low. At the most, use the sho font for English "Love Is All" which imo is Chemical enough.



Any other thoughts?
be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle
