Re: Conlang T Shirt

Hi all,

I will see the man tomorrow about the material. He should bring some samples
of his graphic layout work and heavily-washed T-shirts as evidence that they
will stand the repeated washing. I was actually offered two prices, with
cheap and nasty material being GBP 1 cheaper.

Because of production efficiencies, the T-shirt will be either black on
white, or white on black. This is not a choice for you. I will make the
decision based on a majority preference choice while taking requests. Also,
bear in mind that at the moment, I am just taking requests. Send no money
yet.

On the topic of money, is there anyone who would have difficulty sending the
money in GBP?

I intend to get a sample of the graphic online before comissioning the
T-shirt, we shall see what happens.

T-shirts and shrinkage: I will report shrinkage once I see the samples. As
far as sizes are concerned, I expect to comission a mixture of large and
extra-large sizes (ie 2 sizes). I will try to find out what that means in
inches or cm.

Sally and other Johnny-come-latelies ;)

Thr rules are:

I need, in no particular author,

Your name
the language name, as commonly written in English
A romanised translation of the text
A high quality graphic of the text if it is in a unique font
Certain unusual real world scripts can be sent as text - contact me first.

Graphic files should be equivalent to text at 72 points, or one screen inch.
Please also indicate which way is up :)

If the text is in Latin script, do say so - don't just assume I will know.

btw Sally, I thought you did have a Teonaht script, no?

languages Wanted:

Chinese
Korean
Arabic
Greek
Russian
Hindi
Quenya
French [we're working on it]

Just because yours isn't specifically mentioned here, doesn't mean it isn't
wanted. These are mostly chosen for the distinctive scripts.

I will leave out a list of conlangs wanted/received, as it hasn't changed
much. Those who have not sent languages, you know who you are.
