On the subject of LUGNET merchandising.. are there any secret or not so
secret plans?

I guess you could say there are some "secret" plans, yeah, but I shouldn't
really call them "secret" plans.  Here's what we're thinking...  Now that
membership fundage is starting to trickle in, we'll use a portion of that
to fund the creation and sale of merchandising-type things, for example...

  - T-shirts
  - Pin-on buttons
  - Mousepads
  - Coffee mugs

Ooh Ooh!  Coffee mugs.... mmm coffee...A Lugnet coffee mug would supplant the
LLC mug I have at work.

...and (who knows) possibly also...

  - Hats/caps
  - Posters
  - Notepad cubes (those 4" cubes of 500 sheets of notepad paper)
  - Heavy-duty refrigerator magnets
  - Bumper stickers (ha ;-)

Other suggestions: (not necessarily merchandise, just in the 'put your logo
on' catagory)

banners (for various LUGs to display at shows)
those minifig stickers that show up on the members page
business/membership cards
stickers (vehicle window stickers, side of monitor stickers)
pens & pencils
Rubik's Logo
screensavers
storage tubs
CD's - as in blank CD's that have the lugnet logo on the front instead of CDR-
670 (or whatever)

Well, ok, some of those are pretty tongue-in-cheek, but some of them are neat,
too.  Determining which is left as an excercise for the reader. ;)

(...) Christmas+Birthday cards: (Creating a scene that contains images of minifigs, as long as it isn't too close to actual TLC merchandise is okay, IIRC) LUGNET Sets: Like the CEKs, but on a slightly bigger scale. Richard (25 years ago, 1-Dec-99, to lugnet.publish)

(...) Here are a couple of ideas: Little trapezoidal stickers, like the ones that come with the Tine Milk Trucks, Soccer Sets, etc, to give Minifigs little Lugnet T-Shirts. Obviously, this would be best after determining what the real-life shirts (...) (25 years ago, 3-Dec-99, to lugnet.publish)
