IMHO Ray's martian men in the hot-tub would look neat on a shirt.

I like a good innuendo as much as anyone else, but as a father and a guy who
drives his vehicle to church, I can't wear or display a lot of the pinball
stuff out there.
Am I the only one in the hobby who would like to see some stuff that doesn't
say "I have big shiny balls" or "I play with my balls every night"?
I'm not a prude by ANY stretch of the imagination, but I just get tired of
having to explain to my kids what all the "Big Johnson" tee shirts mean, and
why every other car on the road has a sticker in the window of a guy pissing
on something!
I would suggest something more appropriate like
"Rec.Games.Pinball"
on the front, with 'LOGGIN' ON AND FLIPPIN' OUT" or "I'M EITHER LOGGED ON or
FLIPPING OUT"
on the back.
That way we could get them for our wives, kids, and could wear them
anytime!
Just my conservative two cents!

I wasn't offended at all.
I was just hoping that for once we could get something pinball related that
didn't have a juvenile phrase about balls on it!
"Hey Bevis, he said balls, heh heh heh".
About 5 years ago I got a PinGame Journal T-shirt from Jim Schelberg. I wore
the heck out of it.
My wife finally made me get rid of it when the sleeves, collar, and bottom
seam were all gone.
Almost every time that I wore it someone commented on it. It actually got me
a few pins from people at parties who said " Are you into pinball? My uncle
has an old pinball machine in his basement that he wants to get rid of".
Anyway, I'd love to have some more pinball Tees that I can wear around, but
I can't bring myself to do the home-made, Mike Pacak "I BUY PINBALL
MACHINES" thing.

I don't want this to get into another believers versus non-believers thread.
ALL I SAID WAS THAT I CAN'T PUT A BUMPER STICKER ON MY CAR THAT SAYS "I PLAY

How about if I say that I use my car as chairman of the board of my
company, and would probably not get my banking contracts renewed if I took
my accountant and banker out to lunch in a car that had a bumper sticker on
it that says "I HAVE BIG STEEL BALLS".
Would that be a better reason for not wanting a vulgar bumper sticker on my
car?
You are probably that guy that I saw wearing a tee shirt that said " I GET
LAID EVERY DAY" (with the picture of a talking egg on it) at my kid's school
when we went there for teacher conferences. He was walking down the hall
swearing at his kid for not doing well in school.
Oh well, I guess I'll look into some pinball tee shirts for people with
class.
Any takers?

you worry to much about what people think. i'm sure your credit would have more
to do with the transaction than your bumper sticker. if you were re-newing
contracts, lets hope you have a good repore established. is it not how god
sees you, not how other people do? i was joking. i may do that from time to
time. lighten up.

I just would like a shirt that doesn't look sophomoric (or Eminemic) to the
general population.
So I'll gladly buy something with a funny but non-innuendic theme.
Then I can pin my r.g.p tie tac onto it :-)

tee shirt that they could wear anywhere without being vulgar.
I have a concept for a tee shirt picture that would show a guy playing a
pinball machine with a computer monitor on top of it.
He would be pulling the ball launcher with one hand, and typing on a
computer keyboard that is sitting on the playfield glass with another. All
in a frantic style.
I need an artistic person to help with the picture.
Anyone out there any good at drawing?
If I do it it will look like a hangman game drawn by my 4 year old!
If I can get the drawing I'll look into getting the tee shirts done and sell
them at cost.

I like this one, because it sets the correct priorities. :)
I hope that whatever gets produced can be a good marketing tool to bring
new players to the game. Something that both men and women can wear
would help. Picture a curious 9-year-old reading your T-shirt and asking
what pinball is.

Thank you David! Although I'm happy eveyone takes pride in their "balls".

Timothy R. Smith
would prefer a cleaner version than some of the previous suggestions.
And tagging onto Marcos suggestion:
How about "Special When Lit" in large print and something like "and Special
When Logged onto R.G.P." in much smaller print below it?
Or maybe something like "Let's Talk Pinball".
Or "The Ball is Wild".
There are many possibilities besides things like "I played with my balls
yesterday, I am going to play with my balls today, and I want to play with
my balls tomorrow. You can play with my balls too!"

That sounds a little too much like "ask me about my grandchildren" for my
taste, but I like the idea. How about, rather than all the "balls" puns, just
a plain, simple, "rec.games.pinball: I enjoy fondling my testicles!"
...Or maybe not. Does this fall under the "too much information" my friends
keep telling me about? :)
I'd actually prefer something classy, myself, but couldn't resist the
(so-called) joke. Definitely should ahve lots of EM-style "BONUS!" and "TILT!"
markings, like the backdrop graphics from the Who's Tommy musical.

though, not by computer, so i'd have to get it scanned, but you want it stylized
so it's nice and simple for one-color screening, or like a full-on piece of art?

As to the graphic described below: I'm not sure why you want to include a
computer, but if you do, have the screen display either a clearly marked r.g.p

That way people could really tell what it is supposed to be!
I HATE it when people put detailed pictures on shirts in only one color!
It ends up looking like someone just splattered paint on the shirt!
