[PLUG] PLUG shirts!

[Charlie Li <ml+PLUG@vishwin.info>]

So it's trade show and conference season. Since quite a few of us are
heading to SELF next month, me heading to two other conferences and
others doing their things, it would be great at least for representation
and outreach for our group if we had shirts!

So I've decided to put an order together. For this order, we'll do
standard t-shirts and polos (for venues demanding at least business casual).

The t-shirts will cost about $14 apiece. It will be white base, with
Benjamin Tuxlin and wordmark exactly as the website on the front, though
I'm not sure how we want to arrange them. On the back will be one line,
think sports uniforms, to optionally add your name. You can order one
shirt with one name and another with a different name and so forth.
Names are case sensitive.

The polos, I'm still working out which material we want because there is
a not insignificant price differential between them. Currently I've
specified the meshy-type material with embroidery but we can switch to
another (read: cheaper) material and printing if it would be easier to
swallow. Base colour is once again white; Benjamin Tuxlin will feature
on the top right side of the polo, with the abbreviation PLUG stacked
vertically to his right. Top left of the polo will have two lines to put
names (case sensitive) if you want them on there; you can order
different names for each polo just like the t-shirt.

My print shop sets their order minimums at 24 units per type of shirt;
the more we order the cheaper the unit price (once past a certain
threshold). All taxes are included.

For lead time, depending on my print shop's queue, they will have the
order ready in three to five business days. I figure that if we can have
the entire order submitted by the end of PLUG North next week, we can
get our shirts by PLUG West. This is also why I'm keeping the design
simple; we can go crazier on subsequent orders.

Please let me know your thoughts! We will also discuss at PLUG Central
tomorrow night.
