The monochrome design looks really good! However, I'm a little uncertain about the GNOME foot. It could be a bit much, visually speaking. > IIRC, the GUADEC team did not want to order more designs through the local > vendor.

My initial reservation was in relation to selling them alongside the other shirts we have this year. Reasons for this: * We already have quite a lot of shirts ordered, in four different designs. The more varieties of shirts we add, the fewer GUADEC shirts we will sell. * 20th anniversary shirts are time-sensitive - if we order a lot of them and don't sell them, they become old stock very quickly. * It's tricky ordering small numbers of shirts to sell, since you need a certain volume to adequately cover the range of sizes. However, I am also doubtful about doing a small run of shirts that wouldn't be for sale. It's unclear what the point would be. The reasons that have been given so far are: * To give shirts to volunteers for the party * To give as gifts * To use as samples so we can sell the shirts online I find it hard to believe that we need volunteer shirts just for the party and I don't think we should be spending $175 on freebies. Likewise, I don't think we need physical shirts to drive online sales - we can use social media for that. Maybe we should revisit the idea of selling the anniversary shirts rather than giving them away. > *@Allan* - do you have contact info for Zazzle so we can update the GNOME > store <https://www.zazzle.com/gnome> with these designs? > Historically, it was always Andreas Nilsson who managed the Zazzle store.

However, the cost somewhat depends on the size range and the quantities. Allan
