Well, I might pay $20 or $30 for one of *those*. For $60, I expect something with a logo ;) Like what I'd get in return for a donation to National Public Radio, Creative Commons, FreedomBox Foundation, or whatever. So, yeah-- if it wasn't obvious, I was actually serious. In general `T-shirt sales' terms, $60 is a little on the high side, but it's not really outlandish at all to `donate $60 to a cause and get a T-shirt as a thank-you gift', e.g.: https://creativecommons.net/donate/ ($50 min. donation to get a CC shirt) http://kck.st/hywKB2 ($75 min. donation to get a FreedomBox shirt) In all seriousness.., I really do wonder whether it'd be worthwhile for Nikolaus to try selling expensive T-shirts via zazzle.com or such. How much would you pay for a T-shirt that subsidised GTA04 development? And how expensive would they actually have to be in order to provide a minimally-useful financial subsidy? There'd need to be some sort of nice image to put on the shirts, of course--I'm pretty sure that someone here would be both willing and able to help produce that if it doesn't yet exist (e.g.: I would). So, what do you say? -- "Don't be afraid to ask (λf.((λx.xx) (λr.f(rr))))." _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
