Teach them something productive...like pissing people off on web forums.
You're doing a really good job of that. You are 50 years old, why are you being a prissy drama queen about something you weren't asked to do in the first place. You were not commissioned. There was no design contest.
Doing a limited production group buy of a unique design involving a Forum logo and with permission from the Forum management is one thing. Opening a swag store with their logo is way out of line. This is the only car forum I've been a part of that doesn't do it's own swag to pay for operating costs. Even then, the only time a 3rd party vendor is involved is calendars.
My $.02, drop the logo and this stupid bitch-fest. Focus on your unique and nicely done 914 posters, and enjoy the car that brought you here.
I am with you Chris. i am ready to put this to bed but it seems we have a lot of patriots around here waving their banners. Call me a drama queen, a pisser, whatever. There's two sides to every story.
All this and Andy still hasn't
definitively weighed in and said it's ok or not. So a little disappointed in that. Just old man Rusty waving his arms (and firearms).
I do have the PM where I said I would be offering stickers shirts and mugs. Again no "hey man you can't do that".
If admins want I will send them the design file (plenty of hours in it which I will donate for the cause) and they can take all the time and trouble to setup a store or a group buy and run it. Seems people here want the stuff but are pissed off
I am offering it.
Yeah this could have been done by PMs...and it was. Point was made and store was closed. But nooooo....good old Rusty here had to throw it up the flagpole.
So I salute you!
Can we just shut this down now? I'm beat, you got what you want....
which is nothing.
