RE: [T3] My Christmas, Hannaka, Kwanza, Whatever, Gift to the Lis t....



I guess this means John wins the (ill-fated) type 3 t-shirt contest. :-p
For those who weren't here, we attempted to select an unofficial "official"
type 3 t-shirt.  The idea was to have some shirts made so we could spot each
other among the masses at shows, swap meets, presidential dinners, that sort
of stuff.  A couple of slight factors we didn't really account for helped it
fade into obscurity:

1. It seems we can't count.  Okay, that's not really fair - I know Toby E's
been taking all those college courses, they must have taught him at least
that.  We really didn't decide on a good way to tally the votes.  I'm
claiming immunity for myself(and if I may - David Walters, Alex Diaz, and
Joe B.), since we live in Florida.

2. There was a REAL slow trickle of entries, most of them at or right after
the deadline.  I let several slide past the deadline, since we really hadn't
figured out how to count votes anyhow.

3. Aside from ~10 members, NOBODY voted anyway.  I guess this takes some of
the "zing" out of the lack of a counting process.  

Okay, so my point?  John didn't provide a link to the design, which was
always my personal favorite.  Of course, since the page hasn't been snuffed
by some auto-wipe-out-non-updated-pages thingy on NBCI's servers, all the
other designs are still available for your downloading pleasure.  I think
someone suggested Hanes T-shirt maker software to make your own iron-ons
from these patterns.  I bought the software, but never really took the time
to figure it out.  Dave Walters may be able to offer some tips, he's the
creator of the "original" vwtype3.org t-shirt, although we weren't even
vwtype3.org at that time.  He put a T3D logo on the front and the original
umich.edu address on the back.  It works, that's how we met up at a show
last year.  Anyhow, here's a link to the black & white version of the
"winning" design:  http://members.nbci.com/t3shirts/number2.htm  Maybe John
has a nice picture of the 2-color one on his page (hint, hint).
