You're right, Kakar. I specifically remember the way they said it, too, and it was the first thing I thought of.

I wanna say it was Schoolhouse Rock, but I'm not sure.

This was not an entry in our contest. We didn't get any entries that we were happy with, which is why I'm trying to tell you guys that the "get rid of the wizard" suggestions really don't help at all. This is not going to be our ONLY shirt. We will have numerous options available. That being said though, I will take the comments about the staff, the hand (comment from Darq), and the hat and get another draft. Thanks everyone.

Could you post some of the other entries? You know, so we could see them? For fun or whatever?

Perhaps, just perhaps, we'd be of another opinion. Although I guess it doesn't matter. It's just us who have to buy them and wear them after all...

Yea I don't see how the get rid of the wizard suggestions don't help, seeing as it's us that's gonna be buyin these shirts, yes there may be other options, but as has been said, the wizard you showed us just doesn't look right.

You should make a shirt with the Alla text log on the front and on the back should be a Post Rating Menu with "Excellent" selected.

"Knowledge is power" is a little to cliche. It's been over used.

I think the rating shirt would get a laugh out of anyone who has used the site, that you happen to see on the street. I'd pay for that. :D


And if you really want to make a shirt that would sell make them customizable on order so that you could add your User name to the rate post section on the back. That would be way fun.

I say do a line of clothing with the emotes on them.

T-shirts with Smiley: deadhorse, Smiley: king, and Smiley: queen.


And I'd totally buy a string thong with Smiley: sly on it.

Oh, and don't forget the Smiley: dnp shirts.

Enough with the attempts at originality. I say you guys stop giving yourselves headaches and go with a pic of Calvin peeing on the IGE logo.

Everyone loves it when Calvin pees on stuff. Ford logos, Osama bin Laden's head, you name it. You'll sell a million of them.

Of course, if you run into licensing issues, you can always substitute one of Alla's warm and fuzzy local "characters." Like Hellboy.

No, wait...

Edit: Grammar.

Oh, and Smiley: tinfoilhat smile shirt okgo.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v493/Deadgye/ficksed.jpg :P Moved the knowledge text down a bit and put a certain image in place of the creepy wizard.

I started trying to reconstruct the circle, but said ***** it after 3 minutes- you guys probably have the original without the creepy guys hands saved with multiple layers anyway.

If i'm to offer some more advice, I'd say to remember to change the glow around the text and the elipse to match whatever picture you use; I didn't want so spend the time needed to do such a thing without the original layers seperated so I just left it as is.

Smiley: lol See thats the kind of thing I am talking about. Your logo looks good too except for beign a bit pixilated. Smooth out those edges and your golden.

I like it. I say maybe add more 'edge' to the daggers and maybe some light reflecting off the surface?

I would buy this one.

It would be kool if this was the logo on the back and Alla's Eyes were on the left breast.

Evidently this will be an iron on (since all the colors)? It's great that your branding the shirts however I don't think it needs to be that prominent "allakhazam".

I would suggest a simple 2 color screenprint. A more general approach to the MMO market and not pigeon hole yourself to the "must advertise allakhazam" notion. I say the more general approach because you will move more product, make more money, and the shirts will never be outdated. I know how companies and higher ups are always wanting to plaster their logo on everything but honestly it's not going to sell. Make the designs general, have a trendy design, and people will say "hey where did you get that shirt?, I want one!" Point them to allakhazam.

example: OMG!

I know Propaganda is a damn good screenprinter and they printed all the threadless.com T's back in the day when I participated.

This week I'll do some designs for ya. It's right up my alley.

We are going with Cafepress and you can have as many colors as you want as they use Direct Printing (though I will set it to offer both DP and Heat Transfer). Also, while we intend to have other "slogan only" shirts, you seem to be very contradictory to what most of the comments in this thread have been, which as been "just stick the logo on a shirt and I'd buy it".

Updated, removed the stone texture, and cleaned up the edges.

Also got a good idea for an Asylum T-shirt I think

Can we still submit some entries? I also think you should post a few of them to see what the community thinks, as it's apparent they are in a different mindset than the admins.
