Whedonesque.com threads now come wearable. Better late than never, a range of Cafepress t-shirts (and mugs) printed with a (new) Whedonesque logo.

For those who want black t-shirts, I will probably be making artwork available so you can have your own printed at your local shop.

so.very.pretty.

I love that logo.

Simon | August 22, 19:17 CET

Heh, great tagline! I so love this. Been a long time coming, and thanks for the heads up about the black shirts. Definitely must have one of those too. Will you be using the site logo art for that?

Willowy | August 22, 19:31 CET

No, Willowy, I think I'll stick with this new one.

Caroline | August 22, 19:44 CET

What's with the 06 markings on two of the womens' shirts?

Craig Oxbrow | August 22, 19:52 CET

there's an 05 on one too. I thought that maybe it was for the year? (like 2005, 2006)

MySerenity | August 22, 19:59 CET

Yay for black t-shirts. Not worn a white t-shirt in a good many years, nor yellow or green for that matter.

Paul_Rocks | August 22, 19:59 CET

I think the new logo seems a bit Star Trek-ian (though I do like it). I've always been so taken with the site logo. I think it's perfect.

However, change is good!

Willowy | August 22, 20:01 CET

What's with the 06 markings on two of the womens' shirts?

Maybe it's an homage to the numbers on shirts thing in s6 of Buffy ;)

Paul_Rocks | August 22, 20:02 CET

2005, 2006. Some of this stuff looks so 'sporty' to me, I had to include numbers.

Caroline | August 22, 20:18 CET

I LIKE the numbers. and, I also REALLY like the different taglines. Lots of choices are good. I want the ringer tee! I also want to be rich.

(And Caroline, for you, I've used capitalization. Being able to post here is worth the extra effort. Thank you for your work so I can play here.)

leenah | August 22, 20:21 CET

*Laughs*. Thanks for making the effort, leenah.

Caroline | August 22, 20:27 CET

Great stuff, but count me as another vote for black t-shirts. After all, black is the new black.

tehipite_tom | August 22, 20:55 CET

Wow, coolness. I'm definitely going to have to buy one of these as well as a Blue Sun t-shirt.

Well done, all those involved.

Razor | August 22, 20:57 CET

That is very cool, Caroline! I have something new to add to my Christmas list! :)

Miko | August 22, 21:27 CET

Ladies, these great shirts would look nifty with the go-go boots four threads down. Just sayin'.

jaynelovesvera | August 22, 21:54 CET

Would love to see some of the suggestions on Flickr on a t-shirt. I've always wanted a 'five by five'. Now I want all of them!

lone fashionable wolf | August 22, 22:20 CET

Yes, I'll take up some of the suggestions on Flickr .

Caroline | August 22, 22:23 CET

Can I add another? I think life wouldn't be worth living without a Whedonesque: Ben is Glory? t-shirt.

lone fashionable wolf | August 22, 22:41 CET

(Tiny voice) I like the logo from the site...

zz9 | August 22, 23:20 CET

Was also hoping to see both logos make an appearance, and I, too, want to voice my support for 'Ben is Glory?' :) When I first saw the title Caroline used I thought - 'I'll be able to WEAR 'the love thread'(tm)?'

zeitgeist | August 22, 23:34 CET

(whispering) Me too zz9, though these are nice.

If one said "Ben is Glory?" should it say "...and Glory is Ben!" on the back?

newcj | August 22, 23:55 CET

or maybe 'Wait! What now? Who is...?'

zeitgeist | August 23, 00:22 CET

What about one with "cavemen" on the front, and "astronauts" on the back?

palehorse | August 23, 00:47 CET

Ahch! Sooo many fun ways to use our favorite quote/situations/punchlines!

Btw... where, if someone would be so kind as to point me in the right direction, is the thread with the Ben is Glory hilarity?

Miko | August 23, 00:53 CET

angellove, I assume you mean this thread?

SoddingNancyTribe | August 23, 01:22 CET

For those who want black t-shirts, some artwork available here:

whedonesque.org/tshirt

I totally missed that Ben is Glory thread. It's like it didn't exist.

I think I was off somewhere to see U2.

Bono is Glory? Ah.

Caroline | August 23, 01:33 CET

Those are great, Caroline. I particularly like "We capitalise."
:-)

acp | August 23, 01:37 CET

Most excellent, Caroline ;) Bono is Glory?!?! For heaven's sakes, C, spoiler tags, **PLEASE**!!! The Edge is made of chocolate?!

[ edited by zeitgeist on 2005-08-22 23:43 ]

zeitgeist | August 23, 01:41 CET

ah yes. The Ben is Glory thread did seem to go on forever :) Thanks for the new designs Caroline. Can't wait to put in my order!

MySerenity | August 23, 01:59 CET

And Larry's made of wood!

Caroline | August 23, 02:03 CET

Does that mean Adam weighs the same as a duck? Or am I totally off here ;)

zeitgeist | August 23, 02:08 CET

Hmm... Well, I reckon I'll be going the artwork route or sticking with DIY, since I don't do white ... or yellow ... or pastel pink.

*whispers* I don't want to seem ungrateful... The new logo is nice and has that kind of sleek, SF-y feel, but I have to admit I long for something darker, with the current logo. Has it not been used for any particular reason?

Thanks for getting these out there. They do look great, and the opportunity to puzzle (and enlighten) the uninitiated, despite my usual color preferences, is very tempting indeed. [Edit: The DL 'pain' one, so true, it makes me want to laugh and cry at the same time. Inspired!]

Wiseblood | August 23, 02:25 CET

Prezzies! Just what I needed. You are very, very wise. Now gimme, gimme, gimme!

I have been lookin' for something like this over at Cafepress for a while. Now I can wear my favorite obsession across my chest for all to SEE and PONDER (um, the shirt not the chest.)

And although I'll gladly take what I can get, I concur with Wiseblood. I kinda like the current logo too.

Rank Amateur | August 23, 03:54 CET

'Course we're going to demand physical evidence of you guys wearing them!

Caroline | August 23, 09:48 CET

Just got email confirmation of my order shipped. Will happily post a photo of me wearing my shiny new WHEDONESQUE shirts on the flickr as soon as I get them! And holding the frickin MUG too!

Oh, yeah baby!

(Still craving a site logoshirt, too! Love you, Caroline! Can you make it happen?)

Willowy | August 23, 10:27 CET

Fabulous!

Caroline: best webmaster in the 'verse.

janeway216 | August 23, 11:13 CET

Reluctant to, Willowy, but I'll see what I can whip up, re: current logo.

Caroline | August 23, 23:23 CET

OK, here is a Cafepress shop of t-shirts with the old logo.

Or for black t-shirts:

Caroline | August 24, 00:13 CET

What's with the 06 markings on two of the womens' shirts?

1) You put the shirts on.
2) You go home.
3) Overnight, you're gassed unconscious, and you wake up in a mysterious island village.

(Not the island Hurley is on. A much better one.)

bookrats | August 24, 00:21 CET

Just came back to check... and lo and behold logo-y goodness.
Caroline, much thanks!

Rank Amateur | August 24, 08:28 CET

I wish Cafe Press sold women's plus sizes above 2x. Once again, I'm left out of the club. :(

electricspacegirl | August 25, 00:14 CET

If you want to have your own made, just ask me for whatever artwork you want on it.

Caroline | August 25, 02:30 CET

... with the old logo.

Me is happy now. Thanks, Caroline :)

Wiseblood | August 27, 10:29 CET

Caroline, many thanks for all the designs. Can't wait to get mine.

MySerenity | September 02, 02:54 CET

I'm wearing my tank now, and it's very comfortable!

Gaudior | September 24, 04:59 CET

Oh god Caroline, I think you broke me.

"We capitalise."

You made me cry, you evil thing.

You're good.

leenah | October 05, 00:37 CET

woah all of the shirts rock!
