Ah, crap man. Well, there's 10 days left in each campaign - I hope something can be worked out by then. Fingers crossed, man!

I've had this song in my head ever since I read that:

One just can't have too many t-shirts.

BASSUS SPEAKS TRUTH!!!!!

Ordered a Stealth tee. I don't do colors, or I'd cop one of those penis ones as well.

I'll be back for a belt buckle some time soon though!

[doommeow]

Ordered. Stealth. Dig.

If you did just this morning, I'm pretty sure you were the 100th order. If we had prizes for that sort of thing, you'd have won... something. As it is, all I can do is offer you internet high fives and say that you rock!

[doommeow]

Yes, yes I do indeed rock. No additional prize necessary.

woah, only just found out about this via teespring popping up on my facebook feed.
great incentive to the organiser! great cause so ordered and shared on my page!

[jrmy]

Awesome! Thanks for ordering and promoting!

Tom estimated that as it stands right now, the proceeds could cover up to 6 months of hosting, which isn't too shabby. Of course, we've still got 6 more days to put it over the top!

If this becomes an ongoing thing, and we are able to keep releasing new designs ever X months, hopefully it can seriously make things a little easier on Mssr. Dalton. I mean, I don't think we'll get this outpouring again (unless the next shirt is UNBELIEVABLY COOL) (which it might be), but who knows? Maybe we can make a dent in the upkeep here...

[Iommic Pope]

Dude, I think with regular rounds of community designed shirts we're bound to keep morale and support high.
I think a lot of us around here would love to wear some crazy shit designed by these other motherfuckers that are great at it AND raise some money for the site AND have fun doing it.
Win win win.

So awesome to hear we've raised 6 months on this round of shirts alone, without all the other donations people have been putting in.
I see no reason why this wouldn't continue. I do most of my shirt shopping at gigs, I'd be quite happy to have a wardrobe full of ILF shirts if we could keep aesthetics to the level of quality most bands put out.
I'm not the only one that does this either...

[Eivind August]

If it becomes like a biannual thing, it could work. I can definitely see myself buying a shirt twice a year.

[jrmy]

Yeah, I was thinking about this too - if we do some that are driven by board artists, we could also play down the logo (like have it in there, but small, like an artist's signature), and therefore increase the odds that people beyond the board will want to buy them. I mean, we should definitely have some that say I Love Fuzz loud and proud, but having some that sneak it in could be cool too. Maybe for one round, that could even be a requirement for the art - it could be a competition to see not only who does the coolest art, but also incorporates the logo or name in the subtlest way...

[Iommic Pope]

I like where you're going with that....
