    I have a suggestion...you know how Swellinfo has free advertising...why doesn't someone make some shirts for Swellinfo. Like have a contest where we can make designs and stuff and choose the best one to put on a shirt. Then sell them, hand em out to the users, w/e to spread popularity and promote this site. Thought it was a creative and fun way to spread popularity.

    Thanks for this suggestion!

    I've been wanting to do T-Shirts for a while now, just haven't made the time to get it done. But, I absolutely want to!

    I really like the idea of setting up a contest and allowing users to design a shirt. I want to plan to set this up in the near future. My one idea that I really like, is having a design surrounding the "GREEN MAN". Having a green man t-shirt! In its simplest form, having just the single green man and a wave on the front and the Swellinfo logo on the back.

    I actually had someone do some designs a while back that I haven't done anything with yet.
    This is what he came up with, what you guys think?

    Kinda digging it but what happened to the sponger? It's just surfboards...and shouldn't the motto be "It's all about the swell"? Let's get some more designs and see what comes up/happens! :D

    i'm not that stoked on those designs, just wanted to get some opinions. I'll put this on the to-do list to get an official contest going sometime soon.

    I would buy a Swellinfo shirt. But you should add in bodyboarding to the shirt. Out of the two designs you showed, i like the top one.

    we can setup a poll with the contest, and allow users to vote for their favorite design.

    a poll would be cool, but judging by the arguments on this forum, no one will agree on a shirt if it was just bodyboards or just surf boards, the best bet would be an option between the two, or neither lol. i kno those images are just to get the ideas flowing but i like the second one the most, i think its cool. esp the green guy. maybe even a clean green wave would be cool too - just like on the forecasts!

    I think there should be one bodyboarding shirt and one surf shirt. Then you can pick between them.

    I like the second one, pretty simple. The green guy is cool too. You would definitely have to have either 2 shirts, one for surfers and one for spongers or a shirt with neither which would be lame.

    Rash guards would be sick. good idea. I would sport one. It always seems like you need a new rash guard
