Title: Old GS'er seeking shameless self-promotion... Gear for NErDs!
Post by: vtlion on September 18, 2011, 11:26:41 AM
Hey all.

It has been a really long time since I stopped by the board, but I'm doing well and still in the process of ragging out my ZZR600 (That thing is a tank... almost as tough as my old GS500).  Since it has been a few years, I'm hoping I receive minimal flamage for going semi-troll and popping back up with a shameless self-promotion.  Mods, I am not sure if this really belongs in O&E or the Trade forum.  Please move or remove my post if I'm violating... no harm intended.

Over the years I have seen a few of the members of the board throw their hats into the goofy or self-designed T-shirt market.  Well, recently I got bored, grabbed a copy of ChemDraw 3D and decided to go for it myself.  I spent a few weekends sipping 'jo and tapping on my PC and the result is the storefront linked below.

Anyone have any good ideas for future designs?

Any feedback?

I will even settle for insults as long as they are well thought out!

Thanks all!

VTlion

check back here in a few days. im poring over the periodic table. going to come up wiht somehting. that or hte phonetic alphabet. that i used wiht the SO.

kinda like coming up saying , Whiskey Tango Hotel.  ( as in WTH. ) or Lima Oscar Lima or combining the two. or if this isnt copyrighted, i love this one. it is so simple yet for most people they dont get it. yet if you tell them 99% of what you use in a days time relies on this system. they still dont get it.

Oooo VT good you're back ...
You still got the maxim - or you sold it -

Anyway My fave ever - I saw it on 1 T and I liked it so much I wrote it on another with Indian ink ... looked like ... well I wrote on it but I didn't care ... Its impossible to write it in the right script/mathematical notation etc, but make it and I will buy it, and a coffee cup too ...

This is what it says -

"And God said :-

Cyclic intergal of E.dr = F.ds - and a buunch of other electrical equations that describe what happens between turning on a light bulb and that bulb actually lighting up ...

And then there was light."

I will also buy this one -

And god said :-
Equations that describe electricity turnign into sound when you turn on an amplifier -
And then there was sound.

I would prefer the second one in fact, the first one will be obsolete cos the bulb is obsolete, and LED's bulbs are my favorite ...

Cool.
Buddha.

The unfunny thing is people with "Science is now a verb" tshirts.  :icon_rolleyes:

Hey Buddha,

Good to be back.  I did have a thought along the same lines - to make a shirt with an upside down formula sheet and block letters at the top saying "THIS IS MY CHEMISTRY STUDY SHIRT".  This way, you can just look down at your shirt when you need a formula or constant.

I need to spend some time composing the equations, though, which will take a bit of time with all those greek symbols and such.
