We need RPG t-shirts!
« on: February 19, 2010, 04:50:51 AM »
I know that Fred & Co. are already busy putting the final touches on the rpg and have no time for this, but here goes anyway....  ;)

When I go to game conventions I love to wear t-shirts that support whatever game I'm "into" at the moment. I think it is great free advertising and helps spread the word about a game because sometimes folks will stop and ask about the shirt.

What we need are DFRPG t-shirts, and the shirts being sold on Jim's website just don't grab me. I'd like to see one of the McGrath book covers on a shirt, or the image that will be used on the RPG cover. Something that would grab attention and really announce the arrival of the game at Origins (or whatever con people get to go to).

Just me talking out loud. Anyone listening?  ;D

I'd buy it. But I'm easy.  B-)

I hear you, but it's not something I can think about until the book's truly wrapped.

Aside from the long desired, "Easter has been canceled" shirt,

I'd vote for Arcanos styled shirts and Cover art styled shirts.

I'm not sure what design I would want the most. It could be as simple as (1) a giganto "Dresden Files RPG" logo, or (2) the cover art from the RPG.

Looking at Jim's online store, only two designs grab me much. One is the SplatterCon shirt (but non-DF'ers won't know what it is and it doesn't advertise DF much if you don't get the reference) or the one with the "real world" quote.

I'd just enjoy some more options, that's all.
