The point I was trying to make was that our members were not interested
in a tshirt with MMUG written on it! The point of logo-ed clothing as I
understand it, is that it gives you a particular social status, or puts
you into a social grouping. The club logo is not enough to do this it
means nothing to joe public hence our members asking for the Apple logo
as well.
I like Michael's idea though, I can imagine a t-shirt with the Apple
User Group logo on the arm and maybe a large colour print on the front.
They would make idea charge for raffle prizes, but maybe a bit
expensive to produce?
