No Gnus t-shirt progressing

No Gnus t-shirt progressing

I've actually made some progress on the No Gnus t-shirt.  I was going to
do it last year, but it kinda sorta makes more sense to have it coincide
with the Emacs 24 release, since that has the released version of No
Gnus.

Anyway, the two bits I want to have on the front of the shirt is a
lightning printed in silver ink, and the Gnus logo in a different
colour:

It'll be a black shirt.  I haven't decided on the Gnus logo colour, or
where to place the logo exactly, but it might end up looking something
like that image above.  Probably not, though.

The back will say "No Gnus is good news", somehow, but no matter how I
arrange the words, it looks kinda odd.  But I'm thinking something along
these lines:

Very scary.  But that was "import" bugging out on me.

Or perhaps this rather obvious arrangement:

Perhaps even too obvious?

Anyway, I like the black/silver/red and the text, and I could go either
way on the front.

Are you doing the Gnus logo in two-tone colour, as in the startup image?

I have had t-shirts with silver print which turned into "stealth mode"
after being washed a couple/number of times - black on black. To me that
counts as graceful degradation, but a warning might be in order.

Exciting!


  Coo,

Yeah.  But looking at it, it seems kinda nice.  :-)

No, the monochromatic version.

That's true.  I'll make a note of it on the t-shirt page.

I'm loving it!  And I want one.  It sound at least as awesome as my
Orgmode shirt :)

I am not gut with the Gimp, but the new version is fun to work with!

White or bright color background is I like, anyway. :)

If I did the text on the back in red, too, then I could do
kinda-bright-coloured shirts too, for those that wants them...  But the
lightning on the front will be in silver, which won't show up very well
on very light backgrounds.

I'd personally prefer black, but perhaps not red. . .  I might go as far
as I'd dislike a black/red combo (I'd think of my Emacs telling me I
misspelled something). 

The silver¹ on my Org short is quite the fab I can ensure you.


What I tried to illustrate was the frontpage of basic Gnu pdf manuals
with large title left centered and smaller subtitled dragged right
