I made an alternative to your alternative: http://teespring.com/hnexpired

now this (entirely without sarcasm) is a tshirt that another hn regular would instantly recognise and smile at.

Haha, very nice.

Background:

Several HNers felt that the official shirt isn't recognizable enough, even for people who know the site. I agree. So I made an alternative shirt. I do like the official shirt's minimal approach though, so this design has no logo either and very little text.

It would be even better if it displayed the no-procrast message!

I've never had the discipline to set noprocrast, so I wouldn't know what that looks like :-}

Something like "Get back to work!", actually.

It says no profits will be made by the submitter. Did you pick a charity to donate to, where will the money go? Why not do it for profit? Just curious to see the though process.

Kinda makes me want to design my own, just for fun, to see what I can come up with.

At a goal of 30 shirts, Teespring charges $12.92 per shirt. I chose not to add any markup.

Well it's definitely better than the original. I still think there could be a better design.

Calling all designers! EDIT: Grey Shirt. Orange bar across the entire top (rectangle, even on shoulders) and a white Y on one of the shoulders.

Is there a shirt design site that allows designs on the shoulders or sleeves? I have yet to find one.

what's so wrong about having the orange bar with "hacker news" in verdana??
