Libcom T-Shirts and Merchandising
Aug 11 2007 08:24
Know these have been in the works for some time. After a few dscussions decided to get the ball rolling and post up a thread about it. From what i gather you guys want to use to prole info graphics. Or at least a simple black and white style. Do you have any specific designs in mind, liek i had an idea or two but i want to see what was in the works beforehand. So who has any good designs.
I'm willing to put in a bit of the neccesary capital for it. Not sure of arough idea of the costs though so does anyone know of of any cheap t-shirt printers worth using? Also what would be a good time frame for this, would it be t all possible to get these done before freshers fairs start, or is that entirely unrealistic?
ps don't be a nob and post up loads of joke designs, start a thread about that in libcommunity if you really want to or something

i favour plain t shirts with the 
libcom.org logo - currently visible in the top left of your screen - on its own.
Brand identity comrades.

That's awesome Joseph. I'd wear that. Though prole-info graphics are good as well.

I was just thinking something like this
maybe with some sort of city scape background with like
'if i can't dance its not my revolution' on it
though its shit, it will definitely sell if the design was done in a fairly stylised fashon (ie not by some me), and its not bad for PR purposes, plus it sticks to the whole prole-info graphic style,

Yeah we have spoken about it. what i'd like to do is simple b+w image, possibly on coloured tee with prole.info graphics. the same kinda look as some flyers we did for the bookfair, if anyone saw them

the slouching girl on the train is pretty cool, especially with the 'a rupture with the mundane' slogan.

Tshirts with libcom.org on them would suck. Just tshirts with a graphic would be fine.

I'd also go with Tacks - I love a plain crisp clean design on a shirt - straigfht and to the point, none of this artsy fartsy nonsense

I would definately wear that one with good old Nestor on it if it came in 'Double Fat Bastard Alehouse' size.

i think it would be worth having libcom.org in small somewhere on the shirt no, even if its just ne back, would seems like a wasted opportunity fi it wasn't there somewhere

ok no .org then, just 'libcom'.
small graphic over left tit, nice colours, end of.
I'm happy to be convinced by ppl's designs, but as a starting point, thats what i'd go for.

no, they wouldn't, if you used the logo.
1: looks good
2: spreads the idea

i think the plain tee with the star on it sounds good, need to have libcom on it too. also like the anarchy in the ukraine idea.

We also need a "LibCom? BASTARDS!!!" CW spoof shirt. No-one will get it but it'll be brilliant. And none of this "one size fits all" bollocks. I'm a small.

i'm a child size 11 to 12 preferably.
Thats a normal Small in all shops except primark, apparently which caters to fat people first.

Shockingly agree with Tacks on all.
Small shirts as well as big, girls as well as lads. Red n black star with libcom.org on left tit.
Or cool prole-info graphic on the front with red n black star and libcom.org on the back.
Or a punk givin you the finger screaming "Chaaaaooooosssssss!!!"
Eitherway is fine.... 
P.S. Hows tricks Tacks? Back in UK now so gimme a bell if and when youre in London.

nah that'd be lame. It should be a neat central graphic, then libcom.org in a corner somewhere.
