up with things.
Second, the question is: what kind of message do we want to convey.
I would love a t-shirt (or a few) which focus on our 'community'. So
'who is KDE', 'We are KDE', etcetera. Following the themes set in the
great work by Wade Olsen:

http://picasaweb.google.com/wadejolson/KDEDonTLookBack
http://picasaweb.google.com/wadejolson/WhatDoesKDEMeanToYou
(btw I wonder if his amarok stuff has all been used yet:
http://picasaweb.google.com/wadejolson/Amarok)
or by creating new themes. The t-shirts should tell people something
about who we are: a loving, caring community, interested in
technology, fun to be part off.
What style the t-shirts use for this doesn't really matter - as long
as it's effective.
Greetz,
Jos
