t shirt content with no prize to write home about, team name proposal
i was messing around with photoshop, and came across this image of stalin. he had a mustache. it was a mustache with authority.
i thought, damn that would make for a great posse of mustached bandits t-shirt. and i made this design, which is sort of a C- design.
(click to make image unnessarily large, yes that is stalin’s stache)
i think it would be cool if people who are racing, or someones kid, or something, made a better design that we would turn into a t-shirt for the 24 hour race. the winner gets a free shirt, unless they are racing, in which case they get a shirt anyway.
also the other team needs a name, for which i have the following proposal: posse of the posse of mustached bandits. designs due this time next week. post em to flickr and link them to the comments so we have a full size copy to steal. we’ll take drawings, photoshop docs, whatever. they need to be graphic, have a mustache in some format, say the name of the team, and be sorta funny. nothing pornographic. that means you hutch. you can use color, but make it more about graphics than color, cause god knows what color shirts we’ll be using.

does anybody need another “competitor”? i’m overdue for a little 24hr madness.
What’s with the mustache fetish?
I thought that bandit was kinda synonymous with mustaches. Which would make it an unnecessary mention.
I say the team name steer clear of the facial hair department and go more towards the hairless side of the force. Let’s shave our heads clean and be pirates.
Or glue wigs to our helmets and wear disco clothes.
I’m currently redesigning the coaster brake hub for modern BMX consumption so my mind is elsewhere.
I’ll think of some good team names/designs later.

this is bugging me.
it’s mustachioed.
adjective: having a moustache
k, feel better now.
frederick has so much hate. mustached because its wrong and not right. we actually had this discussion last year christine, and i had to say the same thing. sometimes wrong is funnier or catchier, or just right. in this case its a trifecta.
the second team name is debatable, the first isnt. i am personally invested in a big bad mustache, and the program that goeth witheth, including but not limited to duct tape bandoliers of stick bullets, cap guns to kill other riders, bandanas at the start line, eye patches, spd compatible cowboy boots, more cap guns to kill more riders, and large scale consumption of beans and franks. pirates, frankly, had a lackluster diet, and never used duct tape.
no seriously, the second team name is up for debate, but the first one is stuck i think, unless there is further decent in the ranks, ie the guy who named it, gary and the other guy, starmer. guys?
dave, i’m not sure of the current team set ups. there is somehow always room for more, even if it means setting up a 3rd team. whats the justin freeeeeeeee story?
i’ll check on justine, to see if she’s into it. should be though with a spankin’ new Vertigo.
I’d be up for changing it. The “Hey can I get a mustache ride” jokes were a little annoying after a while.

it is uh, possible that that could be construed as a bit racist…
i like that better, its graphically stronger and it reminds me of trebor’s backttoo. which i cant really remember, nor do i want to.
I actually like this one better too.
It could even be hand drawn on things with just the shield and stache for maximum brand identity.
I give it an 8.5 for clarity, simplicity, and adaptability!
