Title: Score some sweet swag AND help the Guild!
Post by: Elven Doritos on September 07, 2006, 04:32:44 PM
Heya, ElDo here, with some great news!

I just saved a bunch of... Aw, forget it.

In all seriousness, I have started up an online apparel (https://www.spreadshirt.com/shop.php?sid=49529&op=articles) for gamers, and I'm up to designing products for individuals and taking suggestions!

However, this is not a blatant advertisement! There are two products that I will be offering that bear my rendition of the Guild Logo and our URL on it. The two dollar commission for both of these products will be donated to the Guild to help pay for the upcoming server change and other miscellaneous expenses.

They are:
-The CBG Shirt (https://www.spreadshirt.com/shop.php?op=article&article_id=1522745#top), perfect for meeting up with Guilders at conventions and for advertising the Guild on a day-to-day basis!

-The CBG Mug (https://www.spreadshirt.com/shop.php?op=article&article_id=1522738#top), perfect for containing your favorite morning beverage (http://thecbg.org/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?14080.0), and also good for holding pencils, pens, and various other goodies.

If there's enough interest, I could expand the CBG product line to include other items, such as sweatshirts, more expensive shirts, coasters, and other goodies. Feel free to drop me a line if you'd be interested in these. Also, be sure to check out the other products on my page, to help keep my shop a going! If you'd like any non-CBG related shirts made, too, contact me.

I hope this idea helps the Guild and its members!

-ElDo

As a note, there *is* shipping internationally, and I believe the site I use handles everything except for customs.

I'll buy the shirt if I ever need to go to a Con.  I suggest every member who will be attending one buy a shirt.  If the money comes however, I'll buy one sooner.

Broke...
But my scanner is on the way in, like, a week.
I'll be glad to contribute T-Shirt stuff.
Including a Cabbage.
Or eight.
Or a field of cabbages with dice inside.
Or whatever.

ElDo, you knew I'd come and pimp it too ...

If there's a big enough interest, I'd love to make chain dicebags with a CBG type logo on them. If you could get a plastic diamond with the logo printed on it, I could attach it to the side of bags; but I'd need to have enough interest.

Metatron's dice.
Metatron's cube (look it up on wiki) is all the platonic solids nested within one another.
Metatron's dice is the uber dice.

dude, we need a cooler symbol than the "discovery planet" name+blue ball. What we need is like a metal band mascot, like cousin eddie, or some kind of cool symbol, like a hammer+sickle.

The "coolness" of those are in question. I like the current logos.

FYI: Spreadshirt, the site where you can purchase gear to support the Guild, is having a sale at the moment.

(http://www.spreadshirt.com/fileadmin/gfx/banner/spreadshirt/en/Free_Shipping_468.gif) (https://www.spreadshirt.com/shop.php?sid=49529)

Now would be an excellent time to score yourself some CBG-related gear. If you, for example, purchase a CBG t-shirt and a CBG button (I'm not sure why the mugs are "temporarily unavailable-- they'll probably be up again in the next couple of days), you'll get free standard shipping. Unfortunately, as the banner states, this offer is only good for Guilders from the US and Canada.

Spreadshirt is having a sale! Now through January 31, your customers can get free standard shipping on all orders over $15.

Yes, a shirt, I may have to do that here soon...

My only issue with the shirts is that it doesn't say anywhere what the CBG stands for.  That kinda bugs me.

Post by: Elven Doritos on January 07, 2007, 12:43:25 AM
It usually costs a tad more to add text-- I was hesitant until the free shipping deal came up. For the time being, it is cheaper for you to purchase a specialized shirt with extra text (like this (https://www.spreadshirt.com/shop.php?op=article&article_id=1820877#top)) than buying an unlabeled version.

If you want a slightly higher quality material, I can arrange that too (just know that price escalates with quality).

Oh, that's the shit!  It has my name on it!

It's been funny, more people in my college know me by the name Jharviss than by my real name.  I might have to come back to that link later as that looks pretty good.

Hmm. I was thinking to myself earlier that we need more mugs, but unfortunatly I'm broke. If I dissapear off the face of the earth, it's because my computer has finally kicked the bucket and I don't have the money to replace it  x.
