Re: Would you wear a D&D T shirt? « Reply #1 on Dec 30, 2011, 7:05am »
Back in the day my gaming group designed our own shirts for our gaming group. A couple of the talented people in our group created the art work and did the screen printing themselves for the group.
The shirt that fit me (XXL) has long since worn out, but there was an extra shirt that was a small size that I kept as a souvenir and while it was still wider than my scanner I have enough of it for you to get the idea of how it looked and I am posting it here.
I don't currently have a shirt, and would like one, but back in the day I wore it and wore it out.

The only D&D shirt I own is a d20 one, put out by Steve Jackson Games when 3e first came out. It has the d20 logo on front, along with stats for a "T-shirt monster" and the OGL on the back. Got it at DragonCon. Wore it often. I need something cooler. I think OSRIC shirts are available.

My wife has three D&D related T-shirts.
Show-off.
I've been thinking I need to get one. Maybe in this thread, like Alex and the Sensei have already done, we could post some pictures of the ones we think are grooviest?
@Sensei: I'd wear that shirt in a heartbeat. How could we make it? @Alex: I dig the Dungeon Master shirt--understated, says it like it is = awesome.

Methinks I could put together a graphic, put it on a tan shirt..... somewhere it needs to say something like, "Certified 1974 Grognard" in the old "D&D lettering style. I know I guy that does sports shirts.... he may be able to do something like this if we give him the graphics. I don't know what the dpi, etc. would need to be for a shirt. but I'm sure it's 300 or less.

Less. I have done some silkscreen and fine detail can be problematic (obviously someone more skilled will get better results with less spoilage). 100 or so threads per inch screen is typical at least for me, higher is possible, usually a higher thread count will be used on paper rather than a shirt.
I think it makes sense to embrace this, not fight it. Big bold design in 1 or 2 colors.

@jmmccann et al. I think I was attempting humor with the "Certified" remark. I don't see myself wearing something with that on it. Especially if it rings of the "Smith/Jones Family Reunion: 2gether 4Ever" variety I see at the thrift-stores when we're rummaging for cigar boxes and game parts.
