There is no donate button on sourceforge to show our appreciation for the work put in by the developers so
I would like to raise money to support the bitcoin project team. I decided to start a bitcoin gift shop to donate a percentage of the profits to help out with development costs.If you wish to support this effort you can donate artwork to the project in this thread.I am not associated with the developers in any way I would just like to show how much support there is in the bitcoin community.

Good idea. Also T-shirts and other items would be nice. Besides raising money it is a good advertising.

I'd definitely consider buying some.

to be honest .. the logo looks quite crappy..
but i also like the idea of a bitcoin merchandise shop.
i'd be glad to buy a (good looking) bitcoin t-shirt ! (maybe with the option to buy for bitcoins ?)

Cryptohat ;D

I'd rather use just a big Bitcoin logo in place of the dollar. "In crypto we trust" is a nice unofficial slogan.  :)

Need a photoshop wizard to make a larger version.All the ones I can find are tiny.

Thanks to google and an open source image resizer tool.....I call it Bitwear!

The new logo in various sizes can be found here (http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=64.msg504#msg504).

Thanks!

A big thing that would help the bitcoin community would be to get zazzle.com to *accept* bitcoins.

Hey noagendamarket. Lol, I hate it when I am slow to the mark.

I recently purchased a share of a promotional gift company. When I found bitcoin, one of the things I placed on the to-do list for my developers was to create a zazzle alternative for bitcoin users. This may take a little time since other projects need finishing first.

Have a look at the catalogue's of some of the manufacturers and distributors I work with:

http://www.holbay.co.za/reseller/0/holbay/products/all-products.aspx

We would be able to brand any of the items listed. The options would include high quality branding options like embroidery for better quality clothing items. I would suggest the community chooses some items, which we could list. Since setting up branding machines always carries a setup cost, branding a higher quantity distributes the cost and so reduces the total price. With this in mind, I would suggest when items have been chosen we run an ordering period which would list the bitcoin price of a target amount of product, and the bitcoin price with the current level of orders.

I am sure we can competitively compete with zazzel in terms of price and we could take bitcoin payments. Please let me know if you would be interested in working with me on this project instead of with Zazzle.

That's a great idea!Zazzle takes a large cut of the price which makes their products expensive even before you add your own profit margin.You could offer a lot of the options which zazzle have such as the ability for people to upload their own designs.Being able to accept bitcoins directly is another bonus.Im all for this idea which zazzle is ignoring.

I ordered a coffee mug for myself  :D
