That's a linux camouflage t-shirt, right? One we can wear at any geek conference and nobody will notice we are there.
Not really, I am a proud openSUSE Member.
I do beg your pardon for dismissing this design, but without honest criticism it won't improve, and I'd love to see you design something that we print and ship all around the world. This design is a variation of the existing ones we have.
I meant it to be that way, a variation so I get the point. Actually, I state that the last contributors t-shirts (11.1) were cool both in design and quality (which is different from other t-shirts I got after that, probably the first ones were European and the last ones made in America?). I like simplicity too, and too realize a general purpose t-shirt design could be different from others done for a specific (oS Conference) event. Also, I understand the high expectations you and all have.
So I do have a wardrobe full of SUSE, Novell, openSUSE, KDE, Qt, and associated companies' free t-shirts, and I'm probably jaded. My wife hides most of the shirts I bring home as soon as she can to stop me wearing them.
Situation is different here in South America, and in Chile you don't have much FLOSS events through the year. You will always find me wearing an openSUSE t-shirt our there, and you too could see Fedora Ambassadors, Debian, Ubuntu, and Arch t-shirts but it is not likely that you could get one. In other words, your wife would not need to hide them if you both were here :) By the way, most designs I have seen around are pretty simple, logo on the front and some line on the back. Coolest t-shirts are Gnome related, sold by the Gnome community at Encuentro Linux, event held once a year. I recall seeing the original blueish KDE t-shirt (with the white K + gear) on the front, plain as it is and it rocks all the way :) Thanks for your feedback Will, I will do my best to design something much more appealing, and also would like to see more people sending ideas. It's very important to me that the openSUSE project is this open and interested to hear from all of us.
