FWIW, I've got another quote come through on USB pens: 2GB, small with a 2-tone logo on. 350 of them comes to £1,600.

In terms of designs, I like all of the above - but to anyone submitting any: feel free to go mad, but don't get upset if we don't think it's compatible with the maemo.org trademark policy :-)

I would also prefer black t-shirts.

And I think that it is a must to have "Amsterdam" mentioned there somewhere (like some examples above show).

It's like all these t-shirts you get from the concerts.
Maemo & Amsterdam 2009 - I took part.
That identifies a community.

I prefer baloos design, but if it dosn't look well on a t-shirt than I would print it without the mirror.

A baseball cap woul be nice, too.

I still have on fro former days..

Regards,
Uwe

Andrew, is this something that's worth taking money away from the Summit? I'm not being facetious -- I'd really like to know if it's an important item. If so, we should reconsider the 2-3 items (shirts, USB sticks, sticker; shirts, USB sticks, hats; just shirts and USB sticks; etc.).

I'd love for people to see how the design actually fits on the shirt.

In the spirit of the Maemo/Danish Weekend shirts, I'd love to see a shirt that was the same color as the dark gray in the m.o header ^ with a pure orange logo/content application... I think that would look pretty slick. (Same with hats, stickers, USB sticks, whatever).

(Or, even orange base with a dark gray application on top -- I'll mock a few things up in the next day or so.)

Thinking out loud:

We could incorporate the #maesum hash tag into the design somehow. Ever have a t-shirt with a live feed on it?

But, really, I'm just talking about the hash tag itself.

I'm not necessarily advocating them. And cost per unit is probably more than a good quality T-shirt.

Suffice to say, I'd rather have a well-designed t-shirt I could wear out rather than another USB stick.

Agreed. I also think the logo on the front should be fairly discrete - having to shout about your logo makes you look desperate. Also, IME, the size of the logo is inversely proportional to the quality of the brand - and the T-shirt.

Some mockups:

I agree, though the sticks would be a nice opportunity to distribute bits to attendees. If not USB, how about a DVD with things like (just thinking out loud) developer docs & references, training matterial, SDK scratchbox & rootstraps and/or a Virtualbox image for the lazy, a dump of repository.maemo.org source packages, Mer images etc?

I'd rather invest the money making sure there is good connectivity to download all that stuff to your preferred portable devices...

And yes, small brand but... It's funnier with bigger event identifier. Like someone said, it's comparable to the shirt of a specific concert or tour of your preferred band. A collectors piece. A very tangible and concrete souvenir of a one time community experience.
