I have an idea for a shirt that requires more talent than I have artistically, and is somewhat White Night Spoilerish (it gives away one of my favorite funnies).

Sorry for posting late in this discussion, but I have a couple of thoughts.
I'd like to do something with the whole "Blackstaff" title.

I also like the quote about t-rex's not cornering well--that's a fun one,

And I think a Charity-themed shirt might be fun. What do you think? Any ideas?

i'm a second grade teacher, and earlier in the school year i had the kids do a whole unit on fables, at the end of which they wrote their own.  my favorite fable was about a household of small animals of some variety who were told by their mother, "While I am gone, do not open the door, because the big wolf is in the forest."  naturally, when she leaves and the kids hear a knock at the door, they open it.  and they all get eaten.

My vote goes with "... just because you're paranoid doesn't mean there isn't an invisible demon about to eat your face." on the front, with The Dresden Files by Jim Butcher on the back.

Also, can we get hats and buttons made available as well, pretty please?

Buttons are already available at Wizards Harry, Jim's sister's site.  I have a button with the quote you mentioned on my purse!

Though I know CafePress does buttons, and I would absolutely love a SplatterCon!!! button...

I recently decided that I want a shirt that says something to the effects of "Warning: Black Magic can result in death by poultry" or "Black Court Vampires Weakness: Sunlight, religious symbols, falling poultry."

I want one too. Or how about,

On the front-

How to kill Blampires:
1. Sunlight
2. Holy Water
3. A frozen turkey at terminal velocity.

and on the back-

(Blampires?)

The Dresden Files--By Jim Butcher


That would be great. Also, somewhere in there is an awesome "As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly!" joke.

Edited to add: I would totally buy a

I was rereading Proven Guilty last night and came across this quote.

I'm thinking black t-shirt with a large sword across it.  Then, under it, it says "Have sword, will travel."
