Hi,
I am hosting a CB2 logo Contest. Basically, make a CB logo in your favorite editor and post it here. If you need hosting contact me. The prize is yet to be determined as I don't have anything as of yet.
I plan on putting the winning logo on a shirt so please keep your entries to something good. :) The online store that will do this is CafePress. Basically, I upload the image to the server and we are allowed to order the shirts. There will be no profit from this shirt sale to anyone associated with CB unless Jonathan likes it so much that it becomes 'Official'. Jonathan had already given me permission for this last year.
Anyway, if anyone is interested in making the design you may post it here. If I get no responses I'll try and make one later this week.
Oh, we can have many products, like women's T's, Mens T's, Boxer shorts, steins, mugs, hats, etc.

I also added women's long sleeves, polos, tank tops, spaghetti tees, dog t-shirts, (Yes, for dogs), license plates for our cars, and um a teddy bear....
Em, I think it would be really funny to put your referral link on your plate...of course only a few thousand would get the joke and your friends would laugh at you...but hey, they already laught at you.

Shirts come as big as 4x-5x? Come on, we are online gamers. And I was fat long before CB.

That's easy enough...
Small 28" 26" 22 1/8" 0-2
Medium 30" 28" 22 3/4" 4-6
Large 33" 31" 22 3/8" 8-10
X-Large* 35" 33" 24" 12
Each shirt has its own sizes. This example is a woman's Joystick Jr. Hoodie shirt. It even includes the dress size comparables.
Here is the regular mens Tee Shirt
Size Chest (inches)
Small 34-36"
Medium 38-40"
Large 42-44"
X-large 46-48"
2X-large 50-52"
3X-large 54-56"
4X-large 58-60"
So, can you dig it now Undertow? :P

That 4x sounds just right. I got a 52-4" waist, depending on how much of the buffet I cleared, but that'll fit nice and loose. Thanks Max!

A referral link bumper sticker would be awesome! I think people would crash trying to copy the whole thing though...

"your friends would laugh at you"
friends?
Why not have like,
A cool logo in front(or back) and have a saying on the other side.

Well, take this for what it is worth but I think having a CB shirt/ shorts/coffee mug/ or other item is a cool thing to have. If there are any philanthropists among us a cool prize donation would be great. For starters I will throw in a Lesse Tattoo of Endurance and a Mithril Chain Mail. Any other prize donations can be sent to 'bank'.

i could make a background for the logo if people think it needs one

Your fonts need to be burnt and their ashes spread out among ash-eating fish. On the other hand, you have the right idea. I think your 'idea' would look nice on the 'back' of a shirt. By idea, I mean it needs work but it reflects the tone of the game. That is good. As for the front of the shirt a smart, left breast side, Carnage Blender would be keen. Any thoughts?
BTW, keep at it. I think you are on the right track unless others say otherwise. No use running with an idea that people think sucks.
