What about "Fixed in Fremantle" t-shirts?

Last year, Quim had everyone (ok, just a few of us did it, but...) create our own shirts with our favorite logo contest submissions. It was pretty fun. Maybe we should do that again!

Update: Done! Check out the party on Friday.

Here's a hat application of one of the logos.

Tim,

Why not put these logos in a banner/web badge shape here ;)

Ps. Liked the flag rip-off logo :)

Re: Maemo Summit 2009 merchandise and design...
 

My only concern with that is that nothing has been "officially" chosen and I don't know if I'd like to see all number of banners flying around the internets. On the flip side, any promotion is good promotion, so... Added. :)

A couple of the previous ideas using black instead of dark gray. (If you couldn't tell, this is my favorite so far.)

I'd go for black or dark gray shirt (I prefer black, personally). Definitely not white t-shirts; you can't ever wear them lest they get stained.

So far, the "Summit 2ae9" logo is my favorite (and we thought nobody was sure how to pronounce Maemo!), and I think it would endure a conversion to 2-color on black well enough. Something like Jaffa's front/back version would be nice.

As for hats, a baseball cap would be okay, but I don't wear hats all that much. Again, I'd prefer dark gray or black, and I still like the 2ae9 logo.


I have one additional suggestion. How about bandannas? As a cyclist, there's nothing better than a wet bandanna to keep your head cool on a hot day, and they're pretty versatile, even for non-cyclists ;). I know I'd wind up using a bandanna rather more often than a T-shirt or ball cap, and much more often than a knit cap, but I'm likely an exception that way...

So far, white shirts haven't been offered as a choice, but... They are cheaper.

I'll let the poll take care of the other comments. ;)

Tim, I *love* your work.

But my experience in corporate logo development, especially for a diversity council, suggests being careful when incorporating symbols like national flags. Unless you've had experience contrary to mine... maybe I just worked for a stuffy company. ;)
