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).
