I love the idea of the Twian Quote on the back.

Twain quote sounds great to me....and please use ecru shirts.....white is just too bright/stark, and black tends to look tacky.

black, tacky? sounds like someone's not a Nine Inch Nails fan...

A mug and mouse mat would also be good.

I like the whole thing, except for the shirts....really too bad that the catfish on the shirt are so tiny.......

I'd really like a shirt with a BIG catfish on front, like the shirt of a band; the figure would be about 35x30 cm, and a big backprint too!

And yes, I'd like black shirts much more than white (not only for the looks, a white shirt looks and stays grubby after a short period), but tha'ts obvious I'm afraid....

I guess it's just taste, but I hate those kind of shirts these days. Does anyone else agree with SG? Should I think of another range of the same (white) t-shirts with a big pciture front and back?

I have emailed cafepress about the black t-shirt thing. I will report back.

Keep the feeback coming.

What colour is ecru? Aside from white, the only other colour is grey.

Ecru is an off-white, sort of beigish color.

How much of the $20 shirt would go to the site?

Well, keep up the inventing by all means!

but if you ever add (NOT replace, mind, everyone's taste differs indeed) a "big pic shirt" with a non-white color (I like black,. but grey or anything non-white's fine with me), I'm game for one!

Roughly $5. I think you can get first time money off coupons or something reasonably easier, but I've been a cafepress member for a few years now. Any discounted good still pay the same to the site.

Colour shirts are in beta testing at cafepress, I expect to offer them soon. Would you like the mousepad designs on them?

A good sized pic of the Heteropneustes with the Globe suits me fine.

But on a black shirt, the Goldnugget would look really stunning too.....

I once made a shirt for my cousin, with up front a Chaca chaca, and on the back two Synodontis multipunctatus.

took me quite a few days to handpaint them on, iron the paint 'till it fixed etc.and it will always be abit more fragile in the washing compared to a factory-printed shirt.....

A shirt with my Mochokiella on it, that would be cool....after 18 years of loyal fishcompanion put those on a shirt....

I think a zebra pleco would look great on a T-Shirt. Not only that, but because it is only black and white, the shirts would be cheaper. :D

Pleeeze! :? Think different!

I vote for a nice and ugly Chaca, or maybe Bagarius.

Nah... a Vandellia on a black background with a catchy slogan ("I vant to eat your ammonia" or some such nonsense) would be by far the coolest shirt ever made.

Prices vary depending on product, but I propose to make them the same as the prices currently online in the shop.

Chaca dorsal view might be nice... Hmmm...

Another great cat up front would be any Tanganyikan Synodontis. They're very contrasting; imagine a pic of a granulosus, multi or petricola on a dark blue backdrop....!

Ugh, I hate blue t-shirts.

- Perhaps some of the shirts could have a larger picture on them. . like across the chest, that would look cool.
- and it would be great, if not all the shirts were white. . I can´t stand white T-shirts, and everytime I´m wearing one, I´m bound to drop spaghetti sauce or something nasty on it, so please..

Exactly.

I rest my case.......

That's the second and only other reason why I wear mostly black clothes (the first of course is sheer vanity)

How about for free? I like that black and white catfish before the enter, how about that on the t-shirts? :thumbsup:
