Anyone know what the TShirt will look like or have any pictures?

Firebug t-shirts are not yet available, this is something we are yet
working on. The plan is having them for the Firebug 1.6 final release.

Good idea, I also would like to get one :)

[Norman Paschke]

So what about the T-Shirts? I'd willing to buy one :)

I found these http://www.spreadshirt.com/firebug-1-6-ftw-C3376A6510964 looks official, are they?

I think John dealt with that earlier. Maybe he can tell more.

@Honza: Is there a discount for long-term active contributors? ;-)

I apologize for not taking that site down. I believe I have made it
inaccessible now.

I created both Zazzle and Spreadshirt accounts for Firebug and used
them to create T shirts. Both sites are exceptionally easy to use,
however the test orders from both vendors were not acceptable quality.
Neither the images nor the text were silkscreen quality.

I believe that the embroidery process may be easier to get decent
quality control, but that process has more elaborate requirements than
simply some text and images.

I also created a mouse pad from Sean Martell's Firebug image, I have
the test order on my desk now. That result (from Zazzle) was
excellent.

In the end however the entire effort comes to nothing without a non-
profit outlet. I spent a long time negotiating with Mozilla Foundation
and with the Software Freedom Conservancy but we could not come to an
agreement. Part of the complication was my employment contract with
IBM. That part I solved, but it also caused me to leave the Firebug
project ;-)

Thank you for the fast feedback, John.

No, it is still there: http://www.spreadshirt.com/firebug-1-6-ftw-C3376A6510964

Yes, now I remember. The quality was the problem.
Could you please send the account data to Honza and me?

I saw spreadshirt has several printing techniques. At zazzle I didn't find info about that.
Is there a store, that offers embroidery?

I think that would be a start. I guess you just made a test mouse pad? Because I can't find it there.

So I guess Honza, Mike or Rob could talk to the people at Mozilla.
I believe to remember the negotiations with the Software Freedom Conservancy were not fruitful at all, right? I hope we can resurrect this project at some point, because it might offer some possibilities.
At this place I want to emphasize again, that the Firebug project really misses you, John!
