.org 'donator shop'

Post by SQ » Sun Dec 11, 2011 8:34 am

Maybe this would be better suited to suggestions... Meh.

So at random I was looking for the .org's cafepress store (which I found out closed in 2003. Damn I'm old).
This got me to thinking-- Can't we sell .org merchandise with all the different logos and stuff (since those are our creations and don't have anime in them normally) and use the profits to go to the .org?

I doubt the turn out would be overtly amazing, but it'd be kind of cool to have, I thought. And with all the different sites that exist for this sort of thing now (Zazzle is the one I'm thinking of, but I know there's others), simply having a store wouldn't cost you anything. Most sites seem to just give you a commission for your design or referrals.

So, uh. Discuss? And stuff.

We've had a zazzle store since 2008ish. It would be great if it was updated with all the logos though.

It has been updated with all the logos.

maybe we should put it in a place that's more visible?

Ah - nice. Any way to get the 10th anniversary graphic that has all of them at once onto something?

/just bought a tote, all the buttons, and a new travel mug to replace the one I lost at tekko this year.

Oh cool, I like the shirt with Brad's logo even though the black text underneath it is almost impossible to read on any darker color like blue or black.

I'm kinda disappointed with the shirts made from Pas's awesome Org Tans :( Really boring and nerdy looking with the whole "here's an animu-chick's head and some text." It's a shame that someone doesn't do his excellent designs justice instead of just cropping them and slapping them on there.

For what it's worth, I did vectorize all of the images I was given (this one and this one to be specific)

Could we put this on the member's page navigation somewhere?
I couldn't find it listed anywhere.

And is the _Org zazzle account a shared account? Or who controls it?
And if I wanted to help design shit (I have my own zazzle account as well), who would I talk to to see about getting access?

Of course in this case by 'design' I just mean... Using Zazzle's editor to make the designs look better/more customizable.

Basically, Otohiko and I are current in charge of the storefront, as I'm the Donations Manager and Oto is the Storefront Guru. So, you can feel free to send him or I PMs about storefront issues, etc.
