Much agreed. I’ll let the caffeine in the mug prepare me for my day, slowly and gradually. The picture on that mug would wake me up in ways I’m not prepared for that early in the morning.

Not to malign Slug in any way, but it would indeed be cool if we could get a new t-shirt design that reflected our unique new Charter Member status.

Also, it should definitely cost more than a Charter membership, for that little extra bit of irony.

Generally, you just need to let a t-shirt drip dry, or tumble about in a dryer for a while. Why would you want a t-shirt that needs ironing?

Ok, are there five, or only four things wrong with this scenario?

Design a SDMB Charter Member shirt, using SD logo  
Put it up for sale on Cafe Press  
Price it at true cost  
Put up notice on SDMB  
Reap accolades of Dopers

What font is The Straight Dope logo, the one yellow on blue at the top of the page?

You know, that’s a _really_ good question, because if they replace the graphic with text in the appropriate font and color, it would look basically identical, but would save a _huge_ whack of bandwidth. It’s got to be 5 or 6 kB at least.
