Hello pals,

OpenSubtitles.org is growing fast, so it should be nice, when we meet each other in cinema we should know, we are from same fanclub So idea is make some nice t-shirts. We already have first two designs, check them:

I hope I'm not out of line here, seeing as I'm not exactly a well-known participant around here, but since you asked...

The point of a t-shirt is to establish brand recognition. You want people to see them and know at a glance what it represents, without having to read or concentrate too much.

While these t-shirts are okay in themselves, I simply don't "recognize" them as being from opensubtitles.org. They don't spark any "I know that place!" nerve in me.

I'd much rather see a t-shirt that has the familiar opensubtitles.org three-green-box thingy. At a glance, I'd know that was this site. I wouldn't need to think about it; I'd feel it.

Some companies and organizations are so well-known in themselves (like Coca-Cola, for instance) that they can afford to be subversive with their own image and print t-shirts that have nothing to do with their logos and colors and symbols. I think we need to get to that stage first. For the time being, I'd recommend a t-shirt taken right off the home page. That three-green-box thingy means opensubtitles.org in my mind. Exploit it.

Regards,
Peter

thanks for opinion. I must agree with you, but you can't compare cocacola with opensubtitles.org - but those 3 thingies (they are TVs...) is not bad idea. I will think about that. Anyway, everyone is wlecome to make some gfx, which should be used for t-shirts
