Now that I have your attention…
I need help and it does, in fact, involve putting something on my body.
Over at Forbearance, home of the illest ret pally ever to grace WoW, we discussed a player by the name of “Pwnyoface” and what the implications of his name truly were.
The conversation spread into the comments on this post of mine and I decided it was time to take action.
That’s right, the design work has nearly concluded for a “My Little Pwny” T-shirt.
Now I need a screen printer.
Quick perusal of the vast interwebz shows that the majority of companies will only make a minimum of a dozen shirts and will charge me an arm and a leg.
Does anyone know someone who knows how to do T-shirt screening?
I have the image and can put it into just about any format imaginable, looks like it will be 3 colors and I want it on a black shirt. I am willing to get my own shirt and ship it to someone to be printed. Of course, I’ll pay for ink and return shipping, all that good stuff.
I would like to say that I could sell these, but I got a headache looking at legalease about copyright infringement and really couldn’t figure out if this would fall under Fair Use as a parody… but it’s a very similar design to some shirts I bought off eBay a while back, and it’s similar to this design over at Think Geek… bah. If anyone knows someone that could answer that question, that would be cool too. I don’t want to make a buck, just spread the pwny love without going broke. (Dorn – I was trying to think of a way to get “equine twat” in here, but that was the closest I could get.)
If it’s cheap enough and there is some interest, I might get some extras made (assuming I can get mine made in the first place) and split production costs with people.
Here’s the design as of right now:
I cheated a little bit… the pony is a 3rd generation pony but the font is 1st generation.
Yeah, I’m a MLP geek.
I *might* be persuaded to do an Alliance version… we’ll see if I can get this one produced.
I think the design is pretty impressive. The insgnia is a very nice touch.
Well…I am a little upset at you for getting my hopes up on the title…
…but I will help you out nonetheless. I actually have a friend that makes tee shirts. I will give him a shout.
I can provide no assistance. But that T is pretty cool. I like the design.
I lied, struck by a moment of genius, I went to BRKs old site and looked up his store.

That is the t-shirt design page, FAQ are about halfway down. Quick perusal on my part looks like you will be spending less than 20 bucks on a custom T-Shirt. Also looks like there is a self design option.
Thedoctor is in the house!
I knew someone in the “community” here would know someone.
And I’ll post a pic of me wearing the shirt if I can get it made. I’m sure it won’t make it up to you for the disappointment I caused, but it was a catchy title. =)
I took a peek at the zazzle store but their shirt selection is rather limited… however their FAQ section was very useful for figuring out what dimensions and file type I would most likely need. Thanks, smart001!
You know, it’s WAY harder to find a crisp, clean Alliance insignia than to find a Horde one? I did finally find one so I may design the Ally Pwny just for giggles.
“You know, it’s WAY harder to find a crisp, clean Alliance insignia than to find a Horde one? ”

“I did finally find one so I may design the Ally Pwny just for giggles.”
