Would you buy an official XBMC T-shirt?

febs · 2003-11-24, 01:06

what about creation and selling of xbox media center t-shirts?
it can be a fine way to finance the project. pheraps many will buy one.
pheraps you can do that with http://www.cafeshops.com/
they print and sell t-shirts on demand, so i don't think you have to invest money in that.
here is an example (some people i know did it):
http://www.cafeshops.com/openbeer

well, the question is: if xbmc t-shirts were available, you'll be interested in buying one?

if the shirt had a nifty logo on it i would. nothing 2-bit or dumb looking.

febs · 2003-12-12, 17:47

well, i confirm that selling and delivering gadgets with cafepress is absolutely free (i mean, there is no setup cost). too bad there is no feedback from the developers about this idea.
have you guys considered it? 15 votes are not too much, but the poll is opened only to registered users. thank you

heh don't we need a logo first to put it on the t-shirt?
maybe we should start a logo contest first. :d

febs · 2003-12-13, 13:54

well, c'mon let's start the logo contest! :-)
then i will came out with my other great ideas to fill out your pockets.
something like the blender funding, but feature-oriented, not license-oriented. now they started a manual funding campaing. look at www.blender.org

sorry that my reaction is a bit late,
but i like the idea.
i would definitely buy one or two but indeed lets design a logo
first, or just use the x box logo and put xboxmediacenter below it

her.
pheraps you didn't get the idea, man. :-)

you developers should contact cafeshop and send them a logo or two.
they will create the gadgets and sell them on demand.
and you get part of the profits.
