Scuba Board memorabilia, eh?
Many of you have been mentioning stuff like "ScubaBoard T-Shirts", "NDI Chapter T-Shirts", etc, etc...
Well, this is actually something we have been trying to get going for quite some time now. We currently have a professional graphic artist who is willing to produce just about anything we want.
And when I say a "Professional Graphic Artist" I am not talking about the kind of professional mentioned in the movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" when they turn the Vintage Ferrari over to the parking attendants!
This guy is not just any old graphic guy... He ...
To say that "the guy is good" is a complete and total understatement.
However, in order to do this, I need your help. I need explicit, detailed descriptions of ideas you would like to see on shirts, hats, patches, decals, tattooed on your wife's back, etc. I have already given him a couple ideas, but I need more material to work with. Lots more. We would eventually like to have a large variety of designs for people to choose from.
So here's the deal... Post your ideas here in this thread. Be as detailed in your description as you possibly can be. With a little bit of description, he can work wonders, so the more details you can give, the more likely you are to get what you really want. I will then get your ideas to our wizard and he can start working magic.
Some examples might be parodies on things happening in the diving industry, playing on peculiarities of diving in a given region, marine life themes, Spearfishing Humor, DIR Humor, etc ...
While talking on the phone with him I ran some ideas by him with very little and vague descriptions, sort of just semi-ideas and by the time our conversation was over, he had emailed me some "Rough Sketches" that resembled THIS LINK HERE.
(please understand, to respect copyright, this is a purposefully degraded, watermarked, thumbnail sized representation of the real artwork he sent me)
But basically you should get the idea. If he can do this with general ramblings then he can do some pretty cool stuff with descriptions that have some thought put into them.
So start posting what you want, would like to see, think would be cool, etc., etc ...
