disagree with that.
Also I'ld like to suggest to KISS with the design and logo I'm not too keen to be approached by "so you like computer keyboards" when standing at the store checkout.

Are you American?

no, but I don't come from the country of polo either.
Just saying:
Polo > T as far as classy goes.

Not in the UK, polo shirts in the UK are for sports, contractors and chavs I am afraid.

I know. But you wouldn't wear a T to high tea either.

OK, got back. Quality is good. Not plasticy at all. They can do t-shirts and polos. The said that if we get 50 orders they will to a sample for us, if not they will do it at cost (around 4 quid).
I want to get this moving quickly because works about to get busy in a month so I would like if we could get it out of the way quickly.

I can cover the sample, I will probly get it done on Monday, Tuesday at the latest. But we need to decide on either polo or t-shirt and design. Anyway I'm going to bed, watch some TV and try to get better. Answer any questions in the morning.

I think I'm going to tell my mom to make his own design on a Polo with his sewing machine.
She is addicted to patchwork, would be fun to have some DT themed pieces
By the way I'm interested.

Ridiculous. At 8 pence or an estimate of 0,5% they would consider it a deal
just get the samples rollin I guess at 20 orders we're looking at least we can cope with a ,50 cent margin for the 2 samples.

Suggestion:
Get a Polo with a subtle logo for the decent folks who want to spend more to remain unrecognized and a screaming T for the cheap missionaries who are glad to spread the word to everyone able to hear.

Which other translations do you need aside from the ones I posted?
They were all taken directly from the header on the webpage by changing the language option.

We should get an esperanto one too !
If nobody talks esperanto, I'll try to get the translation.

So tempting... but how much to ship to America?
+1 vote for the black version
+1 vote for polo
@kint: Actually, if it just says "DeskThority" you look like an awesome nerd with authority. If someone else in fact KNOWS what the logo means, it just portends of more awesomenaire.

I like a simple design more, so I prefer one without the catchphrase in different languages and just a DT logo, but I'll buy any design.

Simple sounds good - one more for the pot: DT on the left nipple. DeskThority on the back? Designs look super generally - any of those will look great.
