Just wondering, When I go to Blizzcon if you guys wold care if I printed up a bunch of TL.net T-shirts and sold them there?

Probably just a simple "TL.net or Teamliquid.net" black and white design for 15-20$.



..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

Why? There was tons of threads about T-shirts, no one ever actually made them/sold them but everyone wants to buy one.

Poll: Want TL Shirt?
(Vote): Yea, money is not a factor
(Vote): Yea 15-20$ is reasonable
(Vote): No
(Vote): If its Free.

Just make sure to not make a lot of shirts >_< I doubt you would make a profit if you did.

Some silk-screen hanes with "Teamliquid.net" printed on it is hardly worth $15-20.

If you were to actually go to the trouble of making a nice T-shirt it would be one thing, but it seems like you just want to use the TL name for personal profit.

Sounds like a pretty shyster move to me, but that's just my personal take.

If I want a TL shirt, I'd make my own.

Unless someone else went through the trouble to make really nice ones, but other than that I'd prefer just doing it myself.

Nah, sorry - we would care. It's up to the sole discretion of the owners and staff of TL when or if ever to sell merchandise with our name on it.

Basically the same reason you can't go around "legitimately" selling your own Nike or NBA shirts, and using someone else's brand for personal profit (at least without some kind of written/prior agreement).

I imagine we'll get around to selling t-shirts and that sort of thing someday, but the timing and specifics are up to us.

Sorry! ^^

I knew you would say that. Plus I would probably have to chill in the parking lot to sell them with blizzard around also.

Well, can I still make my own shirt with a TL.net on it?


PS- Just to point out Brood. Yes, it is for profit obviously thats the main objective. Why would I charge equal or less than the value of my time and product? But also its what people want, so I provide a service. Going out buying some shirts, designing a simple logo/text, and then going to a silk screening place and getting them made.

Time = Money, less hassle for you.
Simple capitalism.

So 15-20$ is a completely fair price don't you think?

What you call shyster I call ambitious.

tl.net is a website aswell it has a car on it, and I think it's a search engine? So I'm guessing that's a no aswell. =\

How about you sell TL shirts and then donate the profits to TL? No? Then I suggest you sell \"Charlie Murphy\" shirts. Wait a minute... your name isn\'t even Charlie Murphy is it!?

I believe we have a shyster here folks.
And this hot potato has vanished into thin air.

Yeh if it were for free, I'm sure it would be acceptable, but for profit, its dodgy.

So when do we get to start discussing real TL tshirts for profit of the website?

I'd totally buy one and could probably sell a couple others.

I imagine most shysters probably do fancy themselves as just simply very ambitious.

There's nothing shystery about selling a product for a profit.

Obviously you can't use a trademark that belongs to someone else though. Make a unique shirt based on an idea you had and there is nothing wrong with it, obviously.
