clarifying the T-shirt matter
Brian Connors
T-shirt idea, since those who have responded have had more or less the
same misunderstanding about it, that it was somehow connected to my
still-vaporware TV show. So here's what I had in mind:
The idea was to create rfc t-shirts specifically -- I want to do them
for my show eventually, but I agree that it's premature, and that's a
separate venture anyway. I also suspect a lot of people here aren't as
familiar with Cafepress.com as I thought, so let me explain. What they
basically do is let you set up a storefront to sell things like
t-shirts, aprons, coffee mugs, and the like, and they take care of the
manufacturing issues. There are no up-front costs to the shop owner --
Cafepress covers all that, and all the shop owner needs to provide are
the graphics. The shop owner gets a cut by setting the price above the
base price of the finished item (base price for a white t-shirt is
US$13.99, while aprons are US$14.99). I've no personal experience with
them, but there are a great many websites that use them to sell things.
What I'm proposing is a rec.food.cooking store at Cafepress.
They have a very large selection of customizable product, including
everything from the above-mentioned T-shirts, mugs, and aprons to fleece
pullovers, license plate frames, and even thongs; when an order comes
in, instead of having product lying around they simply run a t-shirt or
whatever through a dye-sub printer and ship it out. (I found out quite a
bit too late I probably could have had my calendar printed there as
well.) Their prices are a bit high, but my proposal is to offset that by
selling everything at the base price (no profit to me -- it wouldn't
seem appropriate to me somehow to do it that way) or diverting all
profits to some charity or another as was done with the cookbook. Either
way, we'd be getting something that isn't a one-shot only deal like the
cookbook -- it would be something pretty much anyone from rfc could
order from at any time (and if there's a charity involved, they'd get a
check whenever a certain chosen threshhold of profits was reached). My
role would basically be soliciting graphics and product suggestions
(not, I imagine, a very complicated job).
So that's the basic skinny on what I'm proposing. Now if the opinion is
that the rfc t-shirt idea seems to be a generally good one but someone
here has had negative experiences with Cafepress.com or just thinks it's
better to do it as a one-shot the same way the cookbook was done, I
don't have a problem with that, though someone else would have to
volunteer to coordinate it as that's much more work than I'm ready to
handle. I'd certainly buy one, and we could have blue shirts to match
the cookbooks that way (Cafepress only prints on white and grey because
of their process, and a proper silkscreen probably would last longer).
So, how about it, sirs and madams?

Light as in weight or color?
Amazingly I don't think they do keychains... who'da thunk... What I wish
they did have was chef coats, but somehow I doubt they'd sell enough of
those for it to be worth it. (I suppose we could make official rfc
iron-on patches for those who want that, but I'd have to find a
supplier...) I actually think the aprons are the best way to go, though
I kind of want to do a long-sleeved t with a chef's coat graphic on the
front.

I like the idea. I would buy a shirt or apron. Maybe since this is a
food newsgroup we could donate profits to some group that helps feed
starving people in third world countries. It would only be fair: we talk
about our lavish meals and leftovers, we could do something to share
with people who are lucky to eat a single meal a day.
Besides, I need to do one nice thing every year, may as well get it out
of the way early ;-)

Really I was going for the "Subtle Yet Poor Imitation of Joel Hodgson"

I went to a picnic with a bunch of fans of our local baseball team, and the

I was wearing a rather low cut shirt to this picnic. And decided, once I
got dressed, to put one of those press-on tattoos on a spot on my
body...revealed by the low neckline of this shirt. The left one!
My friends knew it was fake.....it was cute, they liked it, they teased me
about it. One of them pulled over one of the players we knew really well
'Look at Sheryl...". Well, look, he did. And he gasped! "OH NO! You DIDN'T?
You got the team logo tattooed on your CHEST?! WHY DID YOU DO THAT???" he
was really upset!!! We were laughing, I finally told him it was fake. He
didn't believe me, so I took a napkin, dipped it in his beer (alcohol helps
dissolve the adhesive) and rubbed it on the "tattoo", and it started lifting
off.
I think he had too much beer that afternoon!!! We put those fake tattoos on
my friend's kids, the little boy wanted it on his forehead, it was CUTE! His
mom put it on her shoulder, and she got sunburned...that logo was still
faintly on her shoulder for months. (The tattooed area wasn't sunburned,
the rest was, so when the tat wore off, she had pale skin there)
Fake tattoos are fun and about as close to a tattoo as I ever wanna get.

I bought a couple of cookbooks not caring about quality. I wouldn't
think about buying a poor quality RFC shirt. Cookbooks and tee's are
miles apart. Anyone who has a book, or can find the rfc logo online
can have a low quality shirt made at a local mall, flea market, shirt
shop, etc.
The cookbook was accomplished because some the most stable people here
worked on it. I'd have a hard time taking you seriously. You've been
talking about a cooking show for months, but admit to not cooking
because you don't like your family. You claim lack of ambition, yet
claim to have passion. I get the feeling you might be young, but true
passion should still create tons of ambition. If I were you, I'd
point my nose in one direction, and fine tune one area of my life at a
time before I dreamt about another "temporary enthusiasm."
Start cooking for your family, It might bring you together.

For me, the problem is "light" as in color. Bra straps
show through, unless you wear a shirt under it, which
defeats the purpose of a light-weight shirt in hot
weather. Even "skin colored" bra straps can show
through. Unattractive, IMHO.
I buy only medium to deeply colored T-shirts. Red,
royal blue, navy, black, etc., not pale pink, baby
blue, pastel yellow, white.

The original rfc T-shirt was navy.

You can look it up in the rfc cook.book introduction, where you'll see
that the original rfc T-shirt logo was designed by Iain Liddell...

Hence, some questions for Brian might be is HE intending to do
t-shirts with this design for HIS benefit? And has he tried to

Not with this design. I've got a design of my own in mind involving a
sock monkey, but I consider the RFC logo community property and would
not feel right by profiting from it. As I said, unless there's a charity
connection the products on my proposed RFC store would be priced at cost
(base price about $13 for a t-shirt and $15 for an apron, IIRC -- the
t-shirt price drops with more orders).

I actually bought a "Fightin Whites" sweatshirt thinking that I agree
with the sentiment and wishing to support the native american cause to
destereotype themselves.
OK, that being said; in practice actually wearing this shirt just
pisses people off. No one has commented on the irony, or the humor (I
personally think this concept is riotously funny).
Blacks don't always get the point and some assume that you are a white
supremist, and actually touting a team consisting of "Fightin Whites".
The Indians I have worn it around here in AZ have not commented one
way or the other. In Montana I got a "what the fuck is that fightin
whites shit about?" (spoken with a bit of hostility on the Blackfeet
reservation).
The world is too unsophisticated for subltle irony.... what a drag.

It's actually the same reason I was planning to make my calendar a free
download -- I was hoping to solicit recipes and use volunteer testers,
so I would either have had to pay them (an accounting issue I didn't
consider myself up to dealing with) or forego profit for my own part out
of fairness. When I get around to doing the Stock Monkey shirts, that
will be my own design, and I can get what I want for them. But a) the
cookbook was non-profit, setting a precedent, and b) the RFC logo is not
mine to do as I please with, so until Cafepress makes it possible to
split payment checks appropriately it's not fair to Iain or the rest of
the group.

I think I must have missed a post somewhere, but I'm still unsure of why you
want to do this. The rfc t-shirts that I am aware of were made specifically
for cook-ins, while the cookbook was published as a fundraiser to assist
people who were affected by 9/11. I, personally, would not buy an rfc
t-shirt just because it's there. I especially would not buy an rfc t-shirt
with a sock monkey design (a bit juvenile, IMO, but I haven't seen the
actual design), that has no relation to rfc whatsoever (I don't recall many
discussions about sock monkeys around here). Why not turn your energies to
something a little closer to home?

There was an rfc-wide T-shirt project in '96-'97. The proceeds went to
charity, too. The original T-shirt was navy and its logo was the one on
which the cook.book logo is based. Most cook-ins' T-shirts had their
own, unrelated, designs. One exception was the Connecticut cook-in last
year, with the T-shirts sporting a logo almost identical to the origianl
one, but smaller and with different fonts (and the shirt colour was a
different, lighter, shade of blue).

buyers don't get the irony either, I'd say some think it is a pro white
ideal instead of a statement against racial stereotyping.

Let me clarify this one more time: The Stock Monkey is my thing. It has
nothing to do with RFC and probably wouldn't make any sense to anyone
here; you'd be free to buy it if you want, because Cafepress doesn't put
restrictions on who'd buy it, but I agree -- most people around here
wouldn't want one. It's something unrelated, and won't see the light of
day for some time.
As for the T-shirt idea, it's a just-for-the-hell of it thing -- RFC
logo or whatever on T-shirts and aprons for people to buy. Charity
contribution optional, though probable.
I do have some closer-to-home vaporware stuff going on, as most people
around here know. This idea came about just because it seemed kind of
cool.

Either I'm still not expressing myself properly, or this just wasn't as
good an idea as it seemed. If people want to do the t-shirt/apron thing
on Cafepress, I'll be happy to do it, as long as people provide designs
and there's a generally accepted charity that we can have Cafepress
forward the checks to. I'm spending way too much time on this explaining
myself, which leads me to believe that I just don't know how to be clear
about what I'm trying to do.
Y'all want it, I'll go out on my next payday (about a week and a half
from now) and get a copy of Photoshop Elements to put a hi-res version
of the logo up on Cafepress, and the t-shirts and aprons will be there
for sale as quickly as I can set it up, either no profits at all or
profits to charity. Otherwise, it's a dead issue and I'll go back to
trying to make my cooking show something more than vaporware, and if
someone else ever does another round of RFC tees I'll buy one or two
myself.

Speaking for myself, I'd just as soon keep the t-shirt to charity thang a
part of the cook-ins we have.
I don't think anyone's interested because the idea is coming from you, and

For a just-for-the-hell-of-it thing, I'll make my own, Brian.
Hanes4U,com (something like that) has transfer paper and shirts. I made
three shirts for the Seattle Cook-in (the last one sold for millions on
eBay <jk> ). It was fun and was easy to do. Quality? It wasn't
