I agree with everything you said - we're both on the same page I suppose. I quite dislike self-depricating stuff as well, I mean...I should think that many would not think "I drink alot of soda and the sunlight hurts my eyes" as a 'cool' thing to wear on a t-shirt. Good point about subtlety in "geeky wear" as well... Inside jokes are so much better for something like this.Quote:

Oh man, where to begin:
Official Shirt #1:
The colors are sweet, don't change that. Sl1p is right about the implied N in the logo, it defenitely doesn't have the desired effect that you wanted, it really does just look like "TL". I also do not like the graffitti theme. The whole urban vibe really doesn't go with the general feel of this community.
Official Shirt #2:
John's right about ditching the controller all together. It really throws off the balance of the design, there's too much weight off to the right.
I like the idea of the classic logo either centered or off to the side, both look good.
A few other notes:
- I would never wear a shirt in public that said "fuck" on it, or was self deprecating in anyway. So I'd toss out a bunch of those slogans right off the bat.
- I like the idea of using an in joke on the back, the stfu newbie pic url being the most clever of the bunch I've seen so far.
Also
- I'm a fan of subtlety when it comes to wearing geeky things like this (The majority of my game shirts never get worn because of this), so it would be cool if it summed up what we're all about, but didn't blatently state that I'm a gamer.
