I just had an interesting idea...to earn a little more money for OUCH, and to help get the fundraising moving along a bit more.
OUCH pocket Ts....favored by Mr. Happy for cargo space. Are offered in the OUCH store for $18.00. If it is allowed by the proprietor of the store, for a few bucks more I will airbrush a skull on the pocket (in whatever your favorite color is) and redden the eye and nose hole on whatever your CH side is...I am willing to personalize the back of the shirt with your name if so desired as well.
I had also given thought to making OUCH mouse pads in a similar fashion, but I am still looking for a source for blank mouse pads... if this is something you would like to see then I have to get whoever runs the store and get ouch's permission to make the pads. The shirts are already endorsed and I would only be personalizing them.
Just an idea, if ya like it holla and I'll draw a template to post as an example. It will help me to keep my skills sharp too.

Ramon,
I'd take one of each.
BarbaraD runs the OUCH store. To use the OUCH logo, I believe you need to get in touch with Cat or not4hire as a starting point for approval.
How about OUCH posters that we can throw darts at? The red eye could be the bull's eye.

notfer has no problem with the idea... if *For A Few Bucks More* (?)... I can get my pocket Tee personalized: cool! ...after all, good ole (lost in space )   ) OUCH got the word out....
...and that's what it's all about.
The Standard Disclaimers apply: the LOGO is still the *property* of OUCH, it get's the first benefit (because ya bought the shirt/sweatshirt/coffee cup/yadda from OUCH...) what ya do with 'em afterwards.... yer business. Like the ReCycle Yer TinFoil Hat business....
other disclaimers: Professional drivers on closed course... Do not try this at home... YMMV(your mileage may vary... Do not look into laser with remaining eye.... etc.

Ok sounds like this may be set in motion relatively soon.
As per my proposal, the "Few bucks more" would only be whatever postage you'd pay needed to send the shirts to me and back maybe an extra two bucks as a general donation to OUCH. I would NOT accept payment...the whole idea is to kick in a coupla extra bucks for the shirt (instead of 18 each mebbie 20+S/H). The paint, and design materials and time are my donation.
The mousepads...I'm still looking for that add I saw in one of my airbrush mags for a source. They can be done to order, and to streamline things all around the design for the shirts would be basically the same on the Mousepad. Saves everyone time and postage. I suppose the order for a MP could be sent directly to me but in order to keep track (as I havent totally figured out the cost/availability thing yet) really should be handled by the store itself.
As it stands right now for the shirts only, my plan is to simply have your orders taken by the store, the shirts sent to me for customization and I'll ship em out to whomever it belongs to.
Of course I STILL have to get with BarbD on logistics etc. before this can happen. I may be able to get her to commision black shirts since I can do the work in white if desired...so there is still alot on the table...be patient.

I forgot to address the poster idea....
Posters could be done. This is a little more complicated as I have to create a painting and then it has to be mass printed....it is not out of the question. It would also make it easier for me to do some work and have everyone have a copy for less than an auction would be. The only thing is that the cost of printing is not cheap and there would have to be enough folks buying em to offset the cost. Another thing is that OUCH would have to pick up the cost of printing and distribution and turn around and sell em for enought to cover the cost, I simply can't cover that amount. Like I said, mass printing is NOT cheap unless there are HUGE quantities (thousands as an example) to be printed. But it could be done.
