OpenBSD Red Head t-shirts

Contributed by jose on from the schwag dept.

tony asks:
"Ok, so I don't know about any of you, but for the longest time I've been dying to get one of those "Red Head" tshirts.

The OpenBSD team has said if there's enough interest in them (a high demand), they would consider reprinting them.

Show of hands, who else has been after these shirts? Who would consider buying one or more?"

I have to admit that that is my second favorite OpenBSD shirt (after the wireframe one) but I don't own one. So, where do we start submitting a request to bring it back? As for OpenBSD Journal t-shirts and stickers, I really want some, too, but we need to get some original artwork.

    Here seem to be no pink girl tshirts avail. anymore.

    I saw the tshirt the first time @ fosdem in Belgium, and I wanted it for my girfriend pretty bad. But by the time I went to buy it it was ... GONE. I couldn't beleave it.

    I accitently saw the girl that bought the tshirt (with the only pink object at whole fosdem) and with a bit of money and a lot of help of a good friend I (or he :-)) was able to buy and trade the tshirt from her.

    Now my girlfriend owns not A pink oBSD tshirt, but THE oBSD tshirt.

    they started to call me freak. (dunno why yet)

    My question now : will all the ppl with a pink girly bsd tshirt with the 3d model stand up..?

        OK, now, what is wrong with this picture...

        1. Laptops with OpenBSD stickers
        2. OpenBSD flyer on table
        3. attractive girl buying OpenBSD swag.

        I think FOSDEM is going the right way ;-)

        There will be new batch of girly Tshirts, after CeBIT. Dunno which colours yet... feel free to mail me your suggestions

      If that were the ones @ fosdem. I think they sold very good, but if he has a lot left? I dunno.

      In Europe, wim sells OpenBSD tshirts (and also posters and cd's). You can order them @ http://www.kd85.com/

    2. By insdout () iam@psycho.be on http://linux.be

      well, It was @ Fosdem (Fosdem is a City in Belgium, Belgium is in Europe :-PP) and there was only ONE in TOTAL left and NONE in storage.

      To be clear : it is https://https.openbsd.org/images/tshirt-2.jpg that tshirt in pink.

      (did I mentioned how happy she was with it ? :-))

        Hell, if you had attended the ``Linux Solutions'' event in Paris a few days before FOSDEM, there were a few more fuschia t-shirts. We couldn't help but sell all of them there, so there were not enough left for FOSDEM people!

        Better luck next year!

      2. By Anonymous Coward () on

        yeah insdout, FOSDEM is a city in Belgium .... go play with linux.be some more :p
        and Brussels is an open source conference I guess?

    As soon as I see Wim Vanderputte on some conference and he has those shirts, I would definetely buy a couple. Otoh, some collaborative t-shirt order would also be nice.

      I agreee. Maybe this will be the best thing so we can track how many people are really willing to buy for the shirts

  9. By Anonymous Coward () on

    i'd buy one and know at least one other person who would, possibly 2 or 3 other ppl. my favourite shirts are the wireframe (i've been meaning to do a spoof of this for some time) and the blowfish code one (i buy one of these w/ every other cd order)

    i've some ideas for openbsdjournal gfx too, Jose. if time finds me then maybe they'll be more than ideas.

    one line of shirts i'd like to see as well: sports jerseys w/ ports and protocols instead of numbers/names. like a Detroit Red Wings jersey w/ "SSH" as name and "22" as number, or even replace the Bull logo on it w/ an ethernet sign. been meaning to do this too, but getting high quality sports jerseys made is quite expensive: US$40+ per shirt, most places wanting to do bulk jobs like a whole team (no im not talking about t-shirts but real sports jerseys).

      there needs to be less images! :)

    When are there going to be new/different polo shirts made?

      agreed.

    2. By Allochthon () on

      I *really* want one of the "Number 3: The Daemon Polo shirts." I was told that I could buy them on the Europe site, since the North Am. site is sold out, but the Europe site won't ship to the US. I'd pay for the shipping, happily, to get one of those!

    3. By Anonymous Coward () on

      Me too (TM)

      I have the darkblue one with blowfish logo, but would easily buy more for work attire if there were other models available.

  11. By Anonymous Coward () on

    I'd buy one.

  12. By -elmore- () on http://www.screamingelectron.org

    I'd love to buy a couple, that is my favorite shirt and I've never had the opportunity to buy one.

  13. By Strabo () on

    Put me down for one!

  14. By Anonymous Coward () on

    I wanna buy one too,do they only come in white?
    hey think about the darkies among the obsd community

  15. By Anonymous greg () on

    I'll take one!

  16. By Raymond () raymond@dyn.org on www.dyn.org

    Sure,

    put me down for at least two, maybe four. :-)

    Raymond.

  17. By Anonymous Coward () on

    It is true; I feel like that is the most attractive t-shirt of them all.

    I just don't feel any attraction towards the blowfish; he is cool, but not such like that smiling "angelic" daemon!

      I think it's a classic. I have the wire frame already, 2 Red Heads would be nice.

    2. By Anonymous Coward () on

      Indeed. A wireframe daemon poster would rock, too!

  18. By dugsong () dugsong@monkey.org on http://monkey.org/~dugsong/

    if you like the old red head design, and the current wireframe and 3-head designs, let nemickol@monkey.org know. he also designed the CD artwork for 2.3 and 2.4, all out of the goodness of his heart. :-)

    OpenBSD t-shirts started with a monkey gift to the project way back when:

    http://monkey.org/openbsd/tshirts.html

    but the red head design kind of fell by the wayside, since it wasn't suitable for single-color screen printing.

    eh, so it goes.

      I want the pink one for my girlfriend
      could u do it ?

  19. By Joe Price () on

    I'm game!

  20. By zil0g () on

    I'd buy one or two of them with the 3.3 release (from belgium). Also, why can't I find the blowfish T in europe? the shipping killed me when ordering from across the lake, and I want more :~P
    Thanks for the nice artwork you monkey person, I never get tired of looking at that smiling head =)

    David

  21. By Peter () on pbw.us

    i'd get one.

  22. By Jim () jimboliv@hotmail.com on mailto:jimboliv@hotmail.com

    The Red Head T-shirts are the best!! I would buy at least 2 or 3!

  23. By Rob () on

    I'd actually like some OpenBSD business shirts, as I have to wear a tie at $work.

    I've got a few SGI ones that I wear almost every week, plus one each from Cisco, iPlanet, 3Com and other local vendors.

      Get the OpenBSD polo shirt, it's great logo wear. You know where to get it.

  24. By Marco Peereboom () slash@peereboom.us on www.peereboom.us

    I'll buy one :-)

  25. By RC () on

    It's funny that the demon-head shirts, which isn't even the OpenBSD mascot, are the ones that are the most popular.

    I think there needs to be a new shirt. Preferably with Puffy, but not like the latest shirts. I can't speak for everyone, but the "Chix Dig" & 007 shirts just don't appeal to me, and aren't something I'd consider wearing.

    Maybe it's time for a contest... come up with the best decent T-Shirt design.
