Title: Show Your Art Skills And Win An Amiga.org T-Shirt
Post by: Kees on January 04, 2003, 11:52:42 AM
Amiga.org will be starting a new merchandise line and we need your help to do so.

If you think that you can make a great design that would look groovy on a Shirt, Coffee Mug or Mousepad, don´t waste any time and start designing now.

If one of the designs will be used for the new merchandise line, the creator will get a free T-Shirt and the everlasting fame of his/her design on top of our merchandising line.
 
You can send your designs to kees@amiga.org under attention of Merchandise Design Contest.

Make sure that you send in your design before 17th Januari 2003.

For questions please contact me at kees@amiga.org

Point of clarification (though I thought you of all people would have known this) Amiga.org has nothing, zero, nada to do with the "great t-shirt scam of 2002".  

Unlike others, we have offered, sold, and delivered literally hundreds of pieces of  Amiga.org branded merchandise in the past.

People should point the finger at Amiga inc which are the people with their T-Shirt and coupon scam.

Wayne,  any chance that you could put up a large copy of the amiga.org logo? I would like to use it in my design!

Isn't just a t-shirt being awarded to the winner a little lame, considering they're doing AInc's work for them? Come on, offer the winner t-shirt, mug, mouse mat and a copy of OS4 at least!

Sigh...  Is there no one that understands the simple concepts and differences between Amiga.org (a private effort) and Amiga Inc (a commercial company)?  

We've sold our T-shirts, mugs and other paraphrenalia for years and it has nothing to do with them.  We're simply inviting you to do your best at being creative.  After all, isn't that what being "an Amigan" is supposed to be all about?

@KennyR

Please READ the news-item before you post a comment where you confuse Amiga Inc with Amiga.org ...

This contest has nothing to do with Amiga Inc.
Our new merchandise line has NOTHING to so with Amiga Inc.

Besides this, i think that the staff at Amiga.org can decide for themselves what to give to the winner of its own contest.

Thank you ...

Guess I didn't read the thing properly, nevertheless it was posted under AMIGA / PARTNERS (wayne , after recent events on the forums.. come on!!!!)

An Amiga.org t-shirt huh? I'd feel something of a geek wearing a t-shirt that had .com / .org / blah on it...

Maybe 'we know theres an OS under development 'somewhere', we're gonna bomb you regargdless.......

heh wtf lets get flamed, a picture of the tin towers, and 'OS4? sh1t , I left the beta in there'

Tongue in cheek 'calm down, calm down'

Sorry, I misread. It's just that when I saw the word T-shirt on the page Amiga.org just became AInc in my mind.

Mea culpa, I stand corrected.

Haven't you realized yet, that your dealing with untrained monkeys here. If it has "Amiga" as any part of it's name then the thing must be Amiga and also, most likely related to the corporation. Then toss in the whold t-shirt thing ... well, you know monkey logic... Didn't we just have a thread in the forums where the monkeys concluded that Amiga.org is a front/owned by Amiga, Inc.
I know you don't have much hope in Amiga, Inc. I just have no hope in the current hangers on, AKA the "community". Might have to find my old forum thread "C,S. is dead."
By the same monkey logic, MorphOS is not in the realm of Amiga. It's MorphOS. Note the lack of "Amiga" in it's name. The case might be different if it was called the "Might Morphing Amiga OS" or some such.  :-?

Some food for though:

Front of T-Shirt: Frontal view of Wayne in skivvies.
Back of T-Shirt: Rear view of Wayne in skivvies with crack of ass showing.

Wayne depicted as messiah / god type figure with arm raised in air holding a 'boing ball', behind him are all the members of AO knelt on one knee worshiping him.

Finally, a picture of Wayne in 'dole queue/claiming benefits' because AO site maintainence went into arrears as nobody was prepare to donate $1.
'apparently paypal was too un-secure'

Speaking of paypall ...

The new Amiga.org merchandise payments will not go through paypall alone ... we found a dealer that will ship the products world-wide.

Erm, where are the merchandise links? Or was this an old thing and they`ve stopped?

I`d quite like a mug to drink me tea from! My fave mug (bugs bunny from eurodisney) is getting on a bit.

You can find our logo (unfortunally with blue background) in the download/miscellaneous section.

I'm still searching for a good quality picture of the logo alone ... again, sorry for the inconvience.

I guess I'm concerned :-)

Ok, I'll make a transparent version of that same version of the logo and make it available here.

*** Picture removed by nOMAAM***

^^ Explain why you have removed the picture link?

It was nothing offensive or pornographic so it is an outrage and a personal attack at me.

Because it was a picture of Kevin Hisel ... You could get Amiga.org in trouble with doing that ...
