So if you go to http://www.zazzle.com/tvtropes* (note the * in the URL) and buy something, TV Tropes gets a cut of the money.

If you go there, then browse through other shops on Zazzle, TV Tropes gets a 15% referral fee for every purchase. (This referral fee is in addition to any moneys they get for buying TV Tropes merch.)

Friggin' AWESOME.

I'm going to be using that a lot once my parents send me some money in a couple of days.

Apparently while I was asleep, this thread got pinned to keep it afloat... Not actually sure how I feel about that.

Trope-tan has to be way bigger. Too much negative space on the shirt makes for a less aesthetically pleasing effect )= .

But that's pretty damn awesome that we're actually setting this shit up. I hope we get some awesome merch afloat.

Regarding Trope-tan, I suspect the size of the image on the shirt is a factor of its resolution, and making it larger would make it less clear.

Probably. Wouldn't we need to vectorize the image anyway in order to be able to put it on a T-shirt in the first place?

Or someone could re-draw the same image into Illustrator so we can resize her as needed. It's a good drawing, we could do a lot with it.

I wonder if The Situation was actually a blessing in disguise. Perhaps the revenue from this store will make up for money lost during The Situation?

Whatever. I'm gonna buy The Merch if I have any money left over from rent tomorrow, that spells bonus to me.

My god, I want that mousepad.

Too bad I use a laptop and I don't have a mouse for it, so it would be useless, but oh well. I at least want a T-shirt or a mug.

Chances are, I'm not actually wearing any pants right now.

I just ordered the mousepad.

Shortly afterwards, I just realized that my only pointing devices are a trackpad and a tablet.

I guess I'll just click on that Amazon banner and order a mouse, then.

Cool. The referral star is working. We've gotten three referral commissions so far from folks who didn't buy TV tropes merch.

Rawk!

Unfortunately, I had $0 left after paying rent this month, so maybe next month.

yeah Trope-tan needs to be bigger. also I can't wati to see a Lampshade hat and a Tinfoil hat.

We must survive, all of us. The blood of a human for me, a cooked bird for you. Where is the difference?

I'm pretty sure Zazzle lets you adjust the size of an image on your shirt.

We need a better pic of Trope-tan, though. I'm sure any larger and she'll show visible artifacting on the hoodie.

^Yeah, I went and checked it out, and you can even see it on the site's interface. I'm still holding out for a better Trope-tan before I buy one of her.

Roomie just got a tablet. I can get some vector-based software and work tracery magic to make a larger image, I think...

... Huh. I guess that would be an option for people who prefer the classic look over the redesign that I swear is upcoming in the near future.

... I actually don't know how to use vectors...

I am pretty glad that TV Tropes is able to successfully sell merchandise now. Of course, the idea of wearing a Deadpan Snarker t-shirt does not appeal to me personally, but "different strokes for different folks" applies here I suppose.  *

I do like how the site has diversified its merchandise somewhat too.

Mythical Fair link. I think I'll get myself a Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu? t-shirt.

The shirt I ordered from Zazzle should arrive shortly. Pics when it does!

I see that lampshade in the background. tongue

Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?
