Talk:Geohashing Quotes

This page is great! I love the idea, and will definitely keep my eye out for more quotes... --CJ 07:58, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Yay. -- relet 10:49, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

I think the numbering looks really terrible. -Robyn 05:34, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Hmm, I simply did it so I could use a random number generator to pick which one goes up on the front page...I'm not real fond of it, though. Feel free to change it as long as it's consistant. Regards, Ted. -- UnwiseOwl 05:45, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

I think we need a geohashing T-shirt. Maybe "XKCD" in FBI-like letters across the back and "Don't Worry. We're from the Internet" on the front. -Robyn 08:12, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

I completely agree. Sounds like a great idea. Do you think we would need some kind of permission to do the letters like the 'college' style shirt that is in the XKCD store? Or would we just go for something different...--CJ 01:37, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

I've been looking into how I could go about printing a "Geohashers: Adventure Capitalists" bummper sticker for a while, but I guess this sounds fun too. I don't care what it looks like, though, I don't do stylish.-- UnwiseOwl 01:49, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

The T-shirt idea is brilliant. We'd definitely get two. Either T-shirts or geohashing hats. Or both. --Woodveil 04:07, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Okay I'm definitely going to get to work on making this happen. Hit me up with suggestions for what people want! --CJ 06:49, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

I don't believe that we need any sort of permission to use the letters XKCD. I'm not married to the text of the suggestion I threw up, just looking for something specifically geohashing. None of the xkcd t-shirts that is for sale really speaks to me. We should brainstorm for a while. Maybe the Google maps red teardrop ... "the Internet sent me" ... some original Ilpadre artwork ... what else? -Robyn 06:54, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

I disagree on the letters: I'd think Randall would want the name of the comic treated as a trademark. But the typeface for something like this (DEA) should be public domain. I'd love to see either the main page logo or Ilpadre's Holy Hash on a T-shirt! -- Jevanyn 15:32, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

I agree about needing something particularly geohashing. Ideas of the geohasher logo is good, as well as some of Ilpadre's artwork. I'm thinking possibly "Don't worry - I'm from the Internet..." for the quote.--CJ 04:01, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

I doubt that Randall is possessive about the letters, seeing that he publishes the comic under Creative Commons [1]. My favourite Ilpadre drawing is the Globalhash. I might just put that on a shirt myself. I wouldn't buy the Holy Hash shirt: it's a great logo, but I don't want to be wearing something that could be offensive to someone religious whose property I was asking to go on. I'd buy the geohashing logo guy, but I'd want some words too, if not xkcd, than something about the Internet. -User:Robyn 18:17, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

I agree, the Holy Hash logo would be too strange for non-geohashers. I'd prefer the Globetrotter (Liberty version) or the geohashing logo. The quote could be "geohashing", "the internet is here", nothing, ... - Danatar 09:09, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

"Don't worry -- I'm from the Internet" is still my favourite quote so far for a t-shirt. -Robyn 15:40, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

Me too. (I've always wanted to actually post those words, and now I have.) But I prefer "... *We're* from ..." -- Benjw 17:17, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
