How about a Pentax Ltd shirt? One with Otis on the front? After all, who loves Pentax more than Otis?
Regards!

Well, I don't wear polos, myself. I'm not the preppy type, but I think the shirt should be in Pentax Red. It's "our" color, isn't it? Red makes for a nice polo.

Pocket definitely.
(Can always put lens caps in the pocket.)

Colors = Either or both - Pentax Red or our special "Green Button" .

Oh. and please have a few at least in xx or xxx.

I suggest khaki, for whatever. Not everyone wears bright red. Or even black. Regardless of the polo idea, a boonie or golf hat with a little logo might do pretty well. Practical, and all. .

I just know I am going to get pounced on for this.

but

I can't help laughing at all you eager, unpaid, walking advertising media.

Did I say unpaid?
You seem impatient to pay for the privilege of being a walking billboard.

Bright primary colors, large logos and bold graphics scream advertising to me, too.
However I wouldn't mind showing my support with something a bit more subtle and understated.

I wouldnt look at it that way. Yes you are in form advertising for Pentax, but the shirt is for the forums. Its to spread word about the forums, spark up conversations, and "advertise" that your one of the Pentaxians of the world.

Besides, if it's an 'underdog' brand, that's kind of the point, in a way. It's like Harley shirts once were... Only for cameras.

But if we include a text slogan let us be sure to get it right -
"If you want advice our members are full of it"
Uhhh, maybe that is not exactly what the opening splash page says?

Actually, I like that, but maybe avoid the word 'members.'

I think we should declare Otis the official mascot of TPF and be done with it. Why not? He gets more face time on this site than most of the cameras do! He'd be cute on the pocket, actually....

:P
