It would be cool if our logo could include (?)

I would still be very very interested even with that "ID Badge" style thing... I thought the idea of transparency with that logo was really cool. Anyway, let me/all of us know if it ever comes to fruition!

(**edit-- I'm also quite the sucker for wearing bar codes... so 70's style futuristic... Smile

Me like very much the badgy thing. Make it two-sided so we have script and bar code. And you know if you want to donate T-shirt proceeds to the community (less whatever taxes you might be liable for), I don;'t think people would object - maybe add to the store Colin started? Can't help ya with the copyright issues, however. Also can't help ya with that particular shirt design. Surprised

VERY catchy!

Does anyone have a program that is capable of generating real (scannable) bar codes that are based on text or something, so that the bar code could actually really mean something? I think if so, we should have another vote page and decide what it should say... I know it's an 11 on the dorkometer, but it really makes a good example of how much we're into this stuff; how we're always lookin for a puzzle to solve et al.... Whaddya'll think?

This is what I got (although I had to use the coding of 128-B, since it's the only one that would accept the character "e"... Obviously for our purposes, we'd remove the actual lettering from the code, so it was our in-secret... (ok, so now maybe we're at a 12 now? Laughing

hmmm. cafepress doesn't make badges. we're back to Tshirts, caps and thongs I guess. (posters, postcards, magnets, mugs, etc etc ). Well, we can have 2 Tshirts - one for those who prefer bar code, and one for those who do not. Or one with both - front and back. If a polo - just on the front.... Stop me!

I think the "thong" idea is best. Definitely thongs for all.

Check out this barcode, using a very low-level encryption for the words "The Beekeepers and Unfiction.com" (Does anyone like this encryption style by the way, and is there an official name (for this style of letter arrangement*), or did I just make something up?
