i just thought everyone had lost interest in the t-shirt(s).

hell no!!!

i just expected the Coding Snack gods like skwire and skrommel to speak up and say what they wanted the final design to look like.

no one ever loses interest in Cody!

This is what I had in mind.  Pardon the lack of transparency on the shadow.

hmm.. i can't help but think we can do better..
something a bit more mysterious and samurai-spirit inspiring might be nice.

something that stirs bystanders to envy, fear, apprehension, and awe.

Cody's wing holding the chopsticks as it plucks out something from a bowl full of alphabet soup style programming acronyms/languages.

i could, probably, put that together. there is also the question of black bowl on black t-shirt - are you going to see the image. does the bowl need to be a different (lighter) colour. and that shadow under the bowl - may as well be removed completely; i doubt the transparency will look good on any t-shirt (well, it will look like it's a cheap t-shirt print - just my opinion, of course).

I think a grey TShirt would be better -
but you're still going to have the problem "are you going to see the image. does the bowl need to be a different (lighter) colour." I have no experience here so cant answer those questions...

I know there are different methods for printing on Tshirts (but only know that from looking at them!)

okay. i'll remove the shadows from the image and i can colour the bowl if required (leaving it black on a grey t-shirt would look fine, i think).

let me know what else to edit and then we can carry on. or not, as no one still seems sure of what they want.
