Been sort of lurking in this thread for a while now and while the shirts are a cool idea, I don't see BTC as payment. I'll just buy a bunch of sandwiches 
do both I did exactly that.

Loll I like that! Im also a engineer!
Btw if any of you guys want to buy in BTC I can to the escrow for it.
Just pm me your size and address. And I will make the purchase for you. Than you paid in BTC
I think right now our tagline would be something along the lines of "we don't suck and neither does our stuff". Neither of us is really into marketing - we're engineers, which means we prefer honesty and accuracy to flashy slogans and crap. Let the numbers speak for themselves, and you tend to get customers who understand numbers. BFL was really really good at marketing and it didn't take long for people who understood numbers to see through to the lies.
Hey, don't forget about Novak. He doesn't talk much (as this is primarily my project) but he's actually supposed to be the head honcho - though neither of us really like being a "boss". In any case, it's a partnership and neither of us would be doing much of anything if we weren't both in on it. So don't glorify Sidehack and ignore Novak. He's actually got credentials.
Also, I like "GekkoScience - The art of self reliance". That has a good roll to it. I might have to steal it.

We don't forget about Novak - I thought GekkoScience was his dish? That was a nod for him and you both.
Steal away. Gaw seemingly stole "Gawesome" from me and not even a mention during their naming contest, oh well.
Seems marketing slogans are my dish.
Keep up the good work! I'm a lurker but I'm keeping tabs on your progress.
Go Go Gadget T-Shirts!

How about GekkoScience = GekkoScience (front)
The
Art or I've been
of
Self Reliance SideHacked! (back)
We don't have to stop at just one design. I don't know why more manufacturers don't promote shirts and such. I love the idea.
Edit: So we can't buy in Btc? Who uses cash anymore?

Valkir asked if I could set up some kind of "VIP purchasing" first-shot thing for folks what bought the shirt, but I like too much the first-come first-serve no-playing-favorites kind of thing we try to do which means there would ideally be no VIP treatment for any customer. Or something, blah blah blah feel-good marketing blah blah blah.
Anyway, here's what we're thinking. It looks like $4 from a shirt purchase goes to us. So if you buy a shirt, and then later buy stickminers, I'll drop $4 off your order since you already paid us that in advance or something. Novak suggested we could do VIP shipping. Since we'd have to meet batch quantity to be able to make the sticks anyways and orders would be shipped out on a first-placed basis, we could ship an early stick to someone that bought a shirt regardless where in the order queue the person's actual order is, in lieu of getting the $4 discount.
So I guess, if you buy a shirt and then later you want some stick miners once sales are open, you can either get a $4 discount on your order or get one stick shipped immediately instead of waiting in line (the rest of your order will ship in queue order however).
Any complaints or arguments?

Final : it's more complex for you :-(.
FIFO and same price for all, simply.
Just ordered the one that should supposedly trigger the printing...
but wtf "If you can't find your receipt, make sure to check your spam folder! You can expect your order to arrive by Jun 18!"

Perfect with me! Go Go Go! 15 shirts!

Come on Ladies and gents, we just need one 1 more T-Shirt, then sidehack gets the profit and we get our T-Shirts 
This is strange. On my tracking campaing it said 15 shirts and when you check the shirt we only need 3.
We will see.
Come on guys you get a nice shirt and you help the development of the new board!

valkir I think you should move the BTC to the back of the shirt; it looks odd in the corner up front. Either that or replace the "on" with the BTC. What do you think? I kind of like the:
keep
calm
and
sidehack
BTC
calm
and
sidehack
BTC
Thanks for the idea! Since there is already some shirt that have been buy I will keep it like that! Mayeb next Shirt!
Go Go Go! More shirt mean more profit for Sidehack mean more help for him!
do a 2nd one with:
Just checked again, somehow it got jumped to international shipping as being that price. Domestic US still says four bucks.
I probably won't buy one. How weird is it to buy a t-shirt with your own name on it so you can get the profits? I'll just support the project in a more... direct way.
But sure.
If anyone wants to make a GekkoScience t-shirt (http://gekkoscience.com/header.png) I might buy that. We've been needing to get t-shirts made one of these days anyway. Not like we've been thinking about it for a year. Not like one of our former minions got a job at a local screen-printing business either. Nope, not at all.

I'm told $12.50 for shipping. Coulda swore when I looked at that page a couple hours ago it said about $4 for shipping.
USD is too volatile for to be used as a real currency.
that is pretty funny. yeah the shirt company deal got weird , It fits in a padded flat rate envelope goes to all 50 states for 5.95 a package.
the post office delivers the padded envelopes and picks up the mail to ship it. So they turned a good idea into a bad one.
oh 2 shirts 3 shirts maybe 4 fit in a medium flat rate box cost is 11.95.
12.50 to ship 1 shirt is too much.
I was charged 3.99 to ship my order for 1 is below
