On the original T-shirt the intention had been to have SolReSol written in
musical notation IIRC.  I assume Quenya would've been written in the
Tengwar script.

Different scripts, where appropriate, would IMO add interest.

The slogan is fine, but I have just one caveat, namely:

Never having designed a T-shirt, I don't know how much of a problem this
might be.  I guess if Nicole gets the different versions of the full form,
it's easy enough to truncate if there is a problem.
