Ok, of this list, here are the ones I think I could get out sometime this month, if folks are interested:

- Official MobileRead Donut Day
- Avatar for zelda_pinwheel (I'm assuming this would be a mosaic of the avatars of our Beloved Queen)
- Forget the Swine Flu, It's Psockpuppet Psaturday (again, as a mosaic of the psockpuppet rogue's gallery)
- Thread Hijacker (Giant ornate H -- any other details? Did you want this to be a mosaic as well, of all those interesting H-ified avatars?)

We already have "The Blue One Next to the Fish." We could have "Portugal" and "Germany" buttons, if you like, and you could wear them next to the blue button on the Fish t-shirt.

I need some image ideas for the Poll Fairy. Gender? Age? Body shape? Color scheme?

Hey, Marc, remember that avatar I did for you a while back? Feel like sharing it with the world? What sort of text would be good-- "Montsmags Enterprises... <motto>"? One of your catchy sig lines?

I missed Captain Pinktoe and the toast buttering controversy. If someone wants to give me a link to relevant thread(s) and/or some visual ideas, I'll give it some thought.

Given how slow sales generally are at the shop, though, I don't want to try to create too many new designs. I do this for fun, after all-- I don't make any money at it. Most months the shop doesn't bring in enough to cover the expenses of the website, and it is only through the kind generosity of a Certain Patron that we are able to stay open at all.

Maybe it should be a sticky in the Llounge.
There will be a link in the header of the website to the MR one. I've never been sure how to handle the Silliness shop, because it's such an odd project, not really "sanctioned" by MR. I suppose this thread could be a sticky or something.

(Hey, where's the Poll Fairy? )

*disclaimer : i can't actually afford to buy any more t-shirts in the immediate. but i do have a list, harv and vera's panama adventures being at the top of it. (i think "i don't want none of that mischief on my eels!" is going to be a really close second).

Now, if only my husband had a job and I could start spending money again.

I'd be happy to do my part, as my friend says, for "the new economy", but it has to do it's part too!

"Please people, the barn is at a standstill, which is even slower progress than usual, and I could use some new t-shirts, does anyone need a controls design engineer? Will work for money." (Is this what you'd call networking in the business world? or a blatent plug? or just begging and groveling? )

Really.

Though the image certainly does evoke lots of options.

Maybe if I add fairy wings?

How do I illustrate the mischievous eels, I wonder? Eel with ebook reader? With a bit of steamy Harv and Vera romance just visible? Probably needs to be eels, plural. I have this eel: http://www.daz3d.com/i/3d-models/-/m...?item=771&_m=d

Hm. Maybe I should make it a sort of electric eel with glowing text on the sides.

There's a difference?

Times are tight for everyone, I think. I can't afford t-shirts and other extras right now, either.

Glowing eel might look like this (this is actually a squid, but I like the look)

i'm not sure that particular phrase needs any illustration, i kind of like the rather surreal sound of it (for those who don't know...) alone.
