I recently made my donation to the Electronic Frontier Foundation
. I didn’t donate a whole lot because their top five paid employees make a whole lot more than I do, but I have to say they would have gotten more from me if their t-shirt didn’t stink so bad. For one thing, the picture to the left is as good as it gets. I can’t even see what it says! But I can see the logo on it, and that is one ugly logo. It looks like it was made in ClarisWorks paint 1.0. An E with a circle with F’s in it? What the? I think it is time for a logo design competition.

This prompted me to look around for web sites that create nice custom t-shirts. I’m not talking Cafe Press (not so hot iron ons and can’t do dark colored shirts). I want a business that has a nice web site (easy to get a good feel for the shirts (color, quality, selection etc.), clear pricing scheme, and it wouldn’t hurt if they cheep. I didn’t come up with much. This made me think, “Man I could do way better than that.” (I use to make some pretty kickin’ t-shirts back in high school)… and we need to do something with the barn. But quality screen equipment seems really expensive. I did however a come across a super neat robotic silk screening machine that had a fancy “self-leveling squeegee”, whatever that means. I can’t find it now.
