We Have Merch!

26 Apr

Ok, so maybe I’m jumping ahead, getting merch set up before we have many actual listeners, but I went ahead and did it anyway!

I ordered myself a t-shirt to test the print quality and see if the image needs any adjusting.  I used a high-res version of the logo, so it should be pretty sharp.

You can get your merch here:  http://cafepress.com/untitledgeek

Looks like some of the merch there might be cropped wrong (clock, keepsake box, bumper sticker), but it’s a basic store so I can’t edit any of that.  Maybe in the future I’ll spring for a premium store with all the bells and whistles.  Anyway, the t-shirts and mug looks like they’ll be nice.
