I recently had a custom t-shirt made up with my tomlany.net logo on it. It is pretty awesome. A few other people have asked if they can get a shirt. Just one small problem – I only had one made up! That got me thinking, maybe I should make more!
If I can drum up enough interest, I will be producing tomlany.net T-shirts. Right now, it looks like they will be $13-15.
I have an initial interest form. If I get ten or so responses (the point at which it becomes economically feasible to produce bulk quantities), I will have the shirts made up.
The shirts will look like the one on the right, although the logo might be a bit larger. Also, the red could be a slightly different shade, depending on availability . Let me know if you have an idea for the back of the shirt. I didn’t put anything on the back of the initial shirt, but it could add a cool touch. Again, your ideas are of key importance.
If stoplight red isn’t a part of your wardrobe, consider this your opportunity!
I will keep everyone up to date on the progress. For now, let me know about your interest!

The back should read, “T- T- T- Tom Lany! Dot net.”
I like that!
Here are some ideas for the back from the interest form:
“Call Dr. Autotooth today!”
“36 Flavors, you’ll find one to savor”
“Better throw, not as slow, it’s Blake’s Better Spear Throwers”
“Get into Jenny’s jeans!” (two mentions)
I also got a vote for simplicity… nothing on the back. I need to do some research into printing costs. This might be a good option if it is substantially cheaper. I am trying to keep the cost down as much as possible.
This is really cool.
I don’t like the jenny’s jeans one.
Thanks for the comment, Corinne! It was nice to chat with you tonight!
Sounds cool. I like the spearthrowing one, and the one with 36 flavors, those ones sound catchy, and might do well.
Thanks for the comment, Brian! I still have to figure this out. I am thinking something more generic, but we’ll see.
