I can but I won't.
CSS posted a viewpoint. He wasn't attacking anyone. If anything it was the other members who attacked him when all he is doing is stirring debate.
Debate I like and I enjoy. Debassing to personal attacks I don't.
Time for a little self control.

Now the original message has been removed. I for one would like to see it reappear. Without it, the whole thread doesn't make sense; maybe a message that has more than N replies should not be removable anymore. If several people find it worthy of a reply without requesting removal, why amputate the thread's head later?

Chirs,
From Where I can get this T-Shirt ? 
Best overall article of July 2009
A Code Project T-shirt - The Code Project (valued at $1.00)
Your very own black-as-the-ace-of-spades Code Project T-shirt.
T-Shirt[^]
It's Too Cool.  Is there any other option to get it ?

I think we have a few left - XL and XXL only - so I can throw them into the competition prizes.
We're looking very, very hard for a merchant who will handle printing, storage and fulfillment of T-shirts and mouse pads and stuff and noone seems to be able to do this at any reasonable cost. Maybe I should just upload them to CafePress but they are so painfully expensive, even though we sell at $0 margin

Boss, rather than outsource, why you are not starting a new section for this in code-project itself ? May be this is something difficult to manage but you guys can do it.

Yes. It is.

Very much. CP Team should consider doing a feasibility study into incorporating a CP Store section too.

Not sure what you mean here.
Our issue is finding a manufacturer to whom we can send orders and who will, in turn, handle printing, stocking, fulfillment and returns. We don't have the manpower to do this ourselves.

Cafepress's problems aren't just cost related. They use the cheapest and least durable method of printing on shirts.
If you're selling at cost, I'm not sure what you mean by painfully expensive; the last time I looked they had shirts in the $15-20 range; which is about what the least that a print shirt will cost anywhere else.

We can get printed T-shirts here in Toronto for around $10 each. No fulfillment though.

Another thing settled then.
All that remains to be done is:
- add a size field to the personal settings page
- send a T-shirt together with the next MVP certificate
There's ample time to get that organized!

Actually you're right.
At least the bit about sending T-shirts to MVPs. I'm going to get on it.

I'm not sure what is going on lately, but you are in a very accommodating streak.

All that remains to be done now, is not to reply to questions that show code without PRE tags.
