Since nobody can decide on a slogan how about something tasteful and yet not bland.  


I like this design a lot, too.  Good job, Howard.  It is nice looking and even has something for those of us who still have a 7th grade sense of humor.   (mounting hole)    ;)

I actually thought that was the back.  If that's the front, I'd say a simple "www.arcadecontrols.com" on the back.

I have to say I like Howard's design....

on a black t-shirt...
that design on the back...
the front... just a simple small BYOAC...
or maybe with
Build Your Own Arcade Control and/or
the site address or so....

I would prefer the front to be "less crowded"....

just my $0.0002 cents of personal opinions...

but Howard's is good.... good job...

I like it on the front, as for the back, like others have mentioned, just something simple, if anything at all.

how about something like "insert coin to start" with a picture of a classic coin slot    with a circle and a line through it    in big letters "NOT".

and on the back BYOAC rebuilding your memories.

Howabout no...

I think we should use H_C's design and put it on the back.  It just seems like too much to put it on the front.  Besides, if i were to wear it to school or something, I'd be seeing it all the time and be thinking about MAME all day instead of passing my classes!

If BYOAC had a logo (do they have a logo? dont tell me that image on the what's new page is a logo!), then that could be slapped on the shirt as well.

Unless one is currently being worked on (with the site update in progress and all) why dont we hold a logo drawing competition? There's gotta be some rules of course, but if organised well we could get some good stuff that would go nicely onto a shirt.

Just a thought.

whenver i have had shirts with designs on them.. most of them were on the back.. and then with just a logo on the front..

Except for a metallica shirt.. it had designs on both sides :P

I would go for howards design on the back.. and then a small Build your own Arcade Controls on the front..  or maybe "your building a what?" on the front in small lettering with howards design on the back...

if you guys want to make a competition out of it...
it would be great !!... I think the design will get improved...  ;D

but frankly.... I would order 1 or 2 if the front has
a small BYOAC (or You're building a WHAT ?!) and the back has Howard's design on a black t-shirt.... (for about $15 a piece...)

how about that..... since I have no talent in design....
and no connection in doing t-shirt....

I guess the only thing I can offer is my order.....  ;)  ;D
ok.... I'll do better than that.... if you guys hold a competition on the t-shirt design.... I'll also donate a t-shirt to the winner..... (although its only a small prize... but at least there's now a prize for the competition.... heee hee...)

summer is coming.... can we finish this so that I can order and wear this in the summer ??...  ;) ;D

and since it will be a t-shirt that I like... (not like the freebies I get from shows...) can it be made by quality brand ??... (but not the ones that will get all stretched and wacked after a few washes ??.....)

Thanks....

The only thing I would wear is one that just said "B.Y.O.A.C." on the left titty, with a small size font.  Any color t-shirt but white.

Is this going to happen this time? Do I dare hope? This idea has been tossed out a few times before but nobody has gotten under it before. Maybe we should do a new poll and pick from some of the more popular ideas in this thread? Or someone could just go ahead and produce a shirt that they liked and see if it would sell.

I don't like the juvenille slogans, I like the "build it we will play slogan", I also really like HC's and Frostys graphics. I'd prefer the graphic on the back with something small on the front like frostys idea.

I'd also vote for a different color, not black or white. Blue, red, grey, ect.... almost any color other than black or white.
My statements are my own opinions. They have the value that the reader gives them. My opinion of my opinion varies between foolish and brilliant and these opinions often change with new information.

Wow.   This post has generated more comments than any other I have posted.

I like the designs that came out.  I would be embarressed to put up my design w/o working on it alot longer.  Its not nearly up to par with what has been posted.  

If I remember correctly, each color on the shirt brings up the cost.  Is that accurate?

Ok I won't get into design issues, but a bit of clarification.  The shirt with a design on one side would be ~15 bucks.  If we decided to make a small profit (which would have to be debated, and if we did the profit would undoubtedly go towards paying byoac's bandwidth bill)  it would be more.  Also if the design on the other side was significant then it would cost more to add it as well.  

Also nobody said there had to be one design.  The service we looked at allows infinate designs.  So we could take all the designs so far and make one shirt, or varitons of said designs for different configurations.  (eg put the design on the front, or back ect)  

But in my vote the important stuff should be in the front. I'm not the kind of guy that wears t-shirts in the summer only, and in the winter you never see the back of any of my shirts as I'm usually in my leathers.

if the design could be varied t-shirt by t-shirt...
then my preference is still a small BYOAC in the front in the left titty area... and if Howard don't mind sharing.. his design in the back... (or if something better comes up...)

it would be cool if the byoac font matches the front and the back....

as for profit.... its fine.... I have no pblm with that.....  ;) ;D

so... now... who can get 1 in production, post a pic, and start taking orders ??

I think all the ideas thus far are pretty shady...er, i dunno.  :-\

Also, $15 for shirts, and no profit at that point? WHO THE HELL ARE YOU GETTING TO MAKE THE SHIRTS? I have a friend that screenprints t-shirts, and you should be able to get shirts for around $5-8 each.   :P

Don't jump to any conclusions on the idea. In the meantime make your own t-shirts using the iron-on transfers or something.  8)

Somebody is being very negative. ;P   Yes I'm sure you can get em cheaper but we want quality t-shirts made that are available on their own pre-made website for international online order.  Can your friend offer that?  

Also I hope your last line wasn't a slogan suggestion, I don't even know what you are talking about although I doubt it could be good. ;)

Not being negative. just saying.  :-*

the price i mention IS for quality screenprinted t-shirts...no website. Who gives you a free website when you order t-shirts? I hope you're not referring to Cafe Press? Yuck.  :-X  What's wrong with selling them on this website using paypal or other merchant service?

No slogan suggestion, just being a weirdo.  ;D

I do think that some of the suggestions refer to retrogaming in a general sense, not building your own controls. We need to determine what the focus of the slogan is.

Hi Magnet_eye:

if you can get a screen printed t-shirt done (quality t-shirt) in about $8.  Then I believe printed (front and back) - assuming front only has a small logo in the left titty area should be just little extra.

Do you have the connection to this ?? Or you're just heard from someone ??

if howard don't mind providing you with the graphics (scaled to the right size).... can you get a shirt done and printed ??

if we're talking about $10 a shirt (cost), then the place doing the shirt can get some profit while this site can also share some profit... (and the shirt won't be too expensive... ) if we can get to an agreement btw all parties.

Does this make sense ??...

I am involved in purchasing uniforms/shirts/etc for our local youth softball assosication...  it is substantialliy cheaper than 15 per shirt.. heck.. you can come close to a nice polo shirt for 15 with a screen print..

If that's the case, can someone with contacts try to ask those places and see if they're willing to do orders in small quanitites ?? and vaires the pattern ?? etc ??....

Also, when we're talking about screen prints....
what quality is that ??.... (sorry.... I'm not very familiar with t-shirt processing....) but if I remember right, like local malls usually have a place where you can print your pic into mugs and t-shirts, but those are gray scale pics only... not color pics... right ??...

Those at malls are NOT screenprints, those are transfers. Low quality and don't last long. Screenprints are high quality and last. these are what you get from the $30 shirts you buy from places that have designs on them. they are professional.

I will find out some info from my contact. I need to know how many colors the design has, what color shirts ,and if on both sides to get an acccurate estimate.

Since nobody can decide on a slogan how about something tasteful and yet not bland.  




Back in high school we made shirts to support the football team, & we were unable to get shirts made that had as much detail as this.  Of course that WAS nearly 10 years ago & the place we went with may have sucked.

And for those who haven't seen the arcade junkie shirt & thinkgeek.com

My very first thought was the basic;

which turned into the cryptic

worked a further five minutes into oblivion:

But then all I started seeing was byoac -> byorc -> byork -> bjork and scared myself so I'm taking a breather...

I see someone 'from above' read my logo design competiton post!  ;)  Now there is a new section for it, shouldn't someone start a new thread dedicated to the entries, the whole entries, and nothing but the entries? (rather than the current thread; one entry followed by ten comments saying 'this rules' etc)

While I'm at it, who gets to decide the winner? Is it going to be the personal preference of a few moderators at the top of BYOAC, or is it going to be a vote by the community who's going to be wearing these shirts? I think the moderators should pick the best ten, then give us a vote to see what we thinks good, then pick one from the top three - this gives the community a sense of interaction but still makes it a surprise!

Then again, you could just get a lot of votes for something crap, and it would probably drag out beyond April. Ahh well, just a thought.

Off the top of my head;



Hey, I like that!  The Y has the look of a mushroom from Centipede.  At least that's the first thing that popped into my head.

Its cool, but it's seriously cryptic.... wouldn't it better better to advertise the site if it wasn't so hard to read?

At the risk of treading on copyright toes.... since the Y looks like a centipede mushroom how about a more pac man looking C? It could be quite cool if the letters looked like classic arcade characters!

If you build a frankenpanel, chances are I don't care for you as a person.

The 'your building a what?' design would be cool if the cabinet had more detail.  A screen shot, a marquee, etc.

and possible a slogan?

thanks - i knew i forgot something: the domain address (d'oh!)
I think a slogan might be a little too much text, but maybe on the back?
