They are here.......I sent some out in the post today to Stan's team. I have a few in-stock from first run. If the first few sell out I will do more runs but they have to be in batches of at least 13. Price is 10$ plus shipping (all shirts shipped USPS with tracking/flat rate boxes I think its 5 bucks anywhere in the US). The project has been funded by I3 so thanks goes to them, any profit will be contributed to a public marketing fund or burned Vinyl stickers with Bitshares logo coming soon, stay tuned.Oh and how about a best MEME giveaway for a free tee. The theme will be bit asset's bitGLD,bitBTC,bitCNY.....etc. Anything funny, creative, crazy.Try and show why bit assets are the way to go. Meme's must be posted by 9/10 3pm EST. Multiple entries are ENCOURAGED but not necessary. please post memes in here--------https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=8369.new#new
Honestly I wouldn't wear it. Make it simpler and less "BUY BITSHARES" vibe.A simple "I killed the bank" on the bank and "bitshares" on the front left
Quote from: toast on August 20, 2014, 01:56:04 amI think the best approach is to start multiple teespring campaigns and let the buyers decide They are free and easy to create.

Quote from: Gentso1 on August 20, 2014, 01:21:08 amWell it has happened, I have received not only permission but also funding from I3(thanks guys) to go ahead with the tee shirt run.But wait Bitshares is all about choices so why be stuck with one shirt design. Because of I3's support we are able to use both the mock-up I created and cass's mock up to leave the choice up to you which style you would like to wear. Some shirts will be given away in support of the community, some will be sold with all funds going into a marketing account with specific set goals(i.e. the bart billboard idea, renting add space, buying signatures etc). So by buying a shirt you are not only promoting awareness of Bitshares you are also contributing to a marketing fund biased purely on community participation and a poll.The community has asked for alternative forms of marketing so now everyone has a chance to participate on a vote based marketing system. The size of the fund is only limited by the support the community shows. This is a opportunity to raise awareness through the shirt and the fund. Stay tuned for a posting of final mock-ups and get your marketing ideas ready-----marketing thread found herehttps://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=7118.new#newWhat I like most here is the independent entrepreneurial initiative.We are building a decentralized industry while slowly decentralizing even ourselves.Hope to see more such initiatives.

What I dont understand it if you are talking about my design I feel like you are almost starting to troll me a bit because this is exactly as you described earlier in this thread. I was talking about skyscraperfarmsIn that case my mistake and thanks. Would you have any direction on who I could send the mock up to from I3. Also Do we have a vector bitshares logo so we can make a high quality print.IDK maybe arlen or brian?cass has vector logos

Once on site the visitor can find the rest of the Bitshares ecosystemKISS works very well with marketing in our one click you are gone world So your suggestion would also be to drop the DAC's on the back and to keep the logo and qoute in there current placement? I just want to clarify.Front: bitshares, small in leftBack: "I killed the bank", larger bitshares centered below.I prefer black.

I don't understand what attack vectors or market manipulation we would be preventing by increasing fees to get orders filled that can be circumvented by creating many small orders.

It was clearly stated it was inside Appolo.Bounty or now bounty, I have posted even before the dry run how the order matching system can be exploited. I cannot prove it, in a dry run or out of it, because you have to be a broker (fill an order for somebody else) or in some other way know about upcoming order. Other than that I do not think there is much to exploit in the order matching. Said system is just a terribly annoying way to do the things and you will hear a lot about it when people start using it for real….I don't completely understand the matching system tbh. I understand the market pegged asset's and I follow the use of collateral but I don't really have a back round in trading so I will leave my .02cents out of what I barely understand. As long as the team is receptive to change when it is warranted the the platform is properly vetted BEFORE trading of assets I think/hope we will be all right. What I am trying to understand is how the system can be exploited just by someone acting as a broker. If you have a more in depth explanation I would love to give it a read weather it's here or pm or perhaps a thread you could point me too.It so not so big of a deal as it sounds, really. BTSX is supposed to prevent front running : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Front_running by using an order matching system called ‘get what you asked for (i.e. not more)’. Well it actually is not preventing it – which is not a big deal because no system as of now successfully prevents it, afaik.Here is a thread where I try to explain why it will not be good experience for customers: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=5170.msg67914#msg67914Let see this with an example. I will use bter as most everybody here is probably familiar with it and their order placing is pretty well done:Code: [Select]Sell orders Price (BTC/BTSX) Amount(BTSX) 0.0000155 1000 0.0000158 3000 0.0000163 1000 If you click on the third price in bter – your buy order box will be pre- populated with the total amount 5000=(1000+3000+1000) and the max price of 0.0000163. If you do submit this order (as it is pre-populated) you will pay:(1000*155+3000*158+1000*163)/10^7=0.0792 BTCIn the BTSX “get what you asked for” system submitting the same order you will pay:5000*163/10^7 = 0.0815 BTC or ~3% more.If you want to avoid this you have to submit 3 orders – for 1000@ 0.0000155; 3000@ 0.0000158 and 1000@ 0.0000163 …Imagine if you want to buy more and the order book starts with 7 miniscule orders. The result is annoying experience for the customers.

But can an intelligent trading interface do this for you automatically? they main difference would then only be that you need to execute and pay fees for 3 trades instead of 1 .. I think this issue can be nicely handled with some extra logic in the user interface
Here is a quick mock up. I am not sure how I feel about the font of the qoute but I am open to suggestions and it could easliy be changed to a block style should the community wish it.

Thats about as far as I'd venture a guess.I do not know...he said he killed it, so he had nothing left in the bank...which reminds me about the bounty inside Apollo 13 that burned inside the ship last night.

Quote from: Gentso1 on August 11, 2014, 08:04:27 pm I envision everything from buying signature space, ad's on crypto blogs, give aways of shirts and swag(geared toward every demographic) and maybe even getting a couple of crypto celeb's to rock our gear so to speak(Adam,Andreas, Charles and even Vitalik). That would be funny

Good work. I3 should pay you for actually marketing something tangible.
I think the quote 'I killed the bank' relates more to a BitShares X T-Shirt, than a general BitShares T-Shirt. (I like the quote font though but I would make it black.) I like the back, but I would put BitShares X at the top and follow my vote last.
How about something less political? Something to attract investment rather than activism unless it's the follow my vote DAC which is more about activism.Humor is a good weapon.
