Deskthority Official Merchandising

We've just set up a redbubble store where you can buy official DT merchandising. All proceeds go to DT management, server, give-away and initiatives.

The store can be found here: http://www.redbubble.com/people/deskthority

Please note this is an experiment we are doing and we might change print service in the future (or close it altogether). I'm looking forward to receiving your feedback about the graphics and print quality.

Make the store better, send your graphics!

If you want to help DT, please post your original graphics in this thread, the best will be featured in the store. Please note that the design must not contain copyrighted material and you have to release it to the public. If your design is selected, you'll be contacted directly as a hi-resolution version will be needed.

AWESOME! Great idea! I love it.

Before I buy things, might I ask which stickers in particular club members are getting as freebies?

Edit: I should pay closer attention to the spy: post284250.html#p284250 Nevermind!

Just a thought but what about resizing or reshooting some of the site banners as graphics for a mug, perhaps? If there was a standard size, it might help with the design.

This is a great idea.

Awesome idea!

I just ordered a DT-logo mug. Here's hoping it turns out as awesome as I think it'll do!

Great! How about a mouse pad with the unofficial Deskthority mascot? 8-)

I don't think they carry mouse pads, but the design is pretty nice :) I'd need author's permission to use it

What about those not in EU? I haven't taken a good look since I'm on my phone but it seems that international shipping might be high.

What are you, a builder? :P I suppose that'd have to include 50% milk then!

Never liked the taste of milk with my tea... Perhaps there are specific teas that are meant to be drank with milk? I main drink earl grey tea :P

I like some milk in my black tea, not too much though. You have to reach the right balance between taste and consistence :) (Earl Grey or English Breakfast)

Oh I was thinking of adopting that for my new signature or better yet rank. ;) I believe I am allowed to make fun of myself.

The shirts...

So many options! Gonna get some long sleeved white DT shirts.
