Check out all the cool stuff with the new logo design at the TalkingReef CafePress (http://www.cafepress.com/talkingreef) site.

I need help with what you guys want on the shirts - I thought a top 10 list or something similar would be cute on the back of a shirt. I added a TR saying from a post to these boxers (http://www.cafepress.com/cp/moredetails.aspx?showBleed=false&ProductNo=40440974&pr=F)and added another saying to a tote bag (http://www.cafepress.com/cp/moredetails.aspx?productNo=40528624&pr=B&showbleed=false&tab=1&Zoom=1).

Lets design a few shirts with some TR sayings- post all your ideas here! Make some cool shirts and help Rob make some money!! These podcasts and running this board add up to extra expenses not to mention all the thought and time Rob puts into the site and shows. Thanks to all the members for your support!

-gwen ;)

I love it! I need to get me some of this stuff!

How about: The Talkingreef logo, then

"Because only bad things happen fast!"

I like it!!

I will also suggest something that I recommended on my local reef club, a insulated tote bag. You know like one of these for transporting frags etc.. from frag meets and LFS's :)

I love the T-shirts and will most definitely pick a couple up.

Oh I forgot add add a logo saying

How about

TalkingReef.com "because reading about the hobby just isn't enough"

Kevin, wildeone,
i like both of those phrases
we will get those added to the list of phrases to add to the merchandise

Kevin,
regarding the tote, we are limited to what is offered by cafepress at this point, but in the future, giving the right deals, we might be able to offer such items trough a different vendor

Awesome, just a suggestion. I know that is what I use for transporting all the time :cool:

"If you think my blenny is big, you ought to see my wrasse!"

We talked about this in chat one night. Had a whole bunch of things for shirts, etc. But I'm too senile to remember them. LOL

How 'bout:

"Reefers do it in water!"

Christi, we do have something similar..

"TalkingReefers do it in Saltwater!".. :)

LOL....these are great!

That list should be fun, I remember a few of them. :)

How about...

"FOWLR Tank....Tankmates Needed"

"Just Skim It"

"RO/DI...The Official Drink of Reefers"

"Silicate ...BAD...Arragonite...Good"

"To Skim or Not to Skim...That is the Question"

lmao..
John, i love em...

Gwen.. get those on some shirts too.. :)
*crackin the whip*.. ;)

TalkingReefers do it in Saltwater!".. Great!! :-)

John - love yours too!

"Does my water taste salty babe! yeah!" <<<-aka mike myers

"does my reef turn u on babe! yeah! <<<millions of combo's


& TalkingReef.com "This is one pool i dont pee in!"

"i've got the mind of a mental patent,
but im only crazy with my tanks"


"lock stock and two smoken wraise"

"I am Count Clamular, Ive come to suck your kalk"

"It wasn't me mum, the fish made me do it!"

"The fish ate my dounut"

"still searching for my tank do-hicky thing"


"with my head in the tank, how could i possible hear u hunny?

or how about this, instead of words, have a picture

nemo's sushi bar

with rolled up humans in seaweed!

or another pic

a couple of fish a hovering in front of a tank, with a human sim city setting.


full role reversal picture series


ahhh, just a few idea's please feel free to shoot em down in a fire ball!

Reef Tank Setup...$2000
TalkingReef.com setup advise.....Priceless
TalkingReef.com...Don't leave home without it!

Okay....I'm liking the Ozzy humor here! :-)

hehe! i may be a pain in the ass at the best of times, but sometimes im worth it

Great job Gwen...

Lots of great ideas! We might have to vote on something because they will only allow one design per each unique shirt- but there are several shirts, but only one standard white t-shirt and that will need to get the best saying. I can prolly change them out every month or so and everyone can get their shirt eventually.

Since one of my other boards, Reef Freaks, has shut down, we could use the phrase that we came up with there....

"Got Reef?"

What about "The Talkingreef... a great community...and stuff like that"

;)

:D Dave

What about "The Talkingreef... a great community...and stuff like that"
Dave - it would need to be "The Talkingreef...a grrreeeeaaaatt community...and stuff like that"

:-)

How about this...LOL

Chirsti..LOL Yeah that's what happens when it's the middle of the week :)
Hey got a question..have you ever tried a dish where you live that's a hotdog wraped in what looks like a pita bread with mash potatoes & topped off with a shrimp salad? I can't pronouce or even spell the dish. Just wondering if you have tried it. They say it's a local dish that people eat after they come out of the bars or clubs :-)

-john

yeppers, thats the stuff that makes u laugh, good stuff buddy!

Here's another one..lol

OMG!!!!! I totally laughed out loud at work on that one! Almost blushed from embarrassment! That is sooooooo funny! Love it Scott!

Very funny Scott, but hopefully you won't be able to take photos like that soon. ;)

Hope I didn't get you into any trouble. :rolleyes: (and it had been worse than that at one time)

Very funny Scott, but hopefully you won't be able to take photos like that soon. ;)

Yeah, I just couldn't resist...that pic, and John's tagline...perfect match.

Have done 3 water changes so far this week, scrubbing with a toothbrush here and there. So hopefully I can get it so I don't come back from SWU to something like that pic.

How about this...LOL
http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y151/gonzobatteries/RODIIntel.jpg

Love the logo!

hehehe..it was fun thinking of things to create.
Hey Scott your tank does look alot better!!!

Hey Scott...Now this is a "Just a Whole Bowl of Wrong"...LOL
http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y151/gonzobatteries/ScottsLawnJob.jpg

LMAO... now thats great..!!!!

scott, i think you just found your new avatar.. :)

LOL!!! That is way too funny! Granted "scott" doesn't look anything like me. :rolleyes:

Maybe I'll use it for an avatar while I'm away on vacation (SWU)....I don't think I'll bring my laptop with me, so everyone reading any posts I had made would have time to get tired of a "temp" avatar. LOL

uigh!!! Yuck! No...haven't tried it. I'm a vegetarian! :-)

That was my impression and I'm not a vegetarian! Anyhow, perhaps you could go a little heavy on the starches and have just the bread and potatoes???

You guys are too funny with the "merchandising" ideas. I can see the future. Team TalkingReef on "The Apprentice"!
