New Comic Rocket store
Added 2021-11-04 17:03:32 +0000 UTCSome of you expressed interest in getting stickers and shirts and the like. So I'm launching a shop for you! It's at shop.comic-rocket.com.
During the rest of November, you can use the coupon code "PATRON20" for a 20% discount. (This excludes stickers, which are about as cheap as I can make them already, and the convention kit, which is already 20% off.)
Wow, this has been a fascinating process. I plan to blog about what I learned later. But for now I just want to get this store launched and see what y'all think of it.
If you have any feedback on the designs on these products, I'd love to hear it! A computer scientist trying to do graphic design is dangerous indeed. I sure learned a lot about using Inkscape.
I can offer a variety of other products too, if there's anything you really want but don't see there already. The print-on-demand supplier I've chosen has a fairly wide selection, especially of clothing products. And because it's print-on-demand there's no minimum order size, so all it costs me to offer something new is my time.
I've been trying to make sure the items I offer can be shipped from facilities not just in the US, but also Europe and Australia. So hopefully shipping times and costs are reasonable for you no matter where you are. But some colors and sizes just aren't stocked everywhere, despite my efforts. Regardless, if you order by November 22nd you should get your stuff before Christmas no matter where in the world you are, if that matters to you.
Check out the shop and let me know what you think!

Thank you so much! Haha, I almost said "you can use this coupon code, or not if you want to give me more money" but I edited that out before posting. π€£ The other design, with the logotype plus the logo as a dot on top of the "i", was a suggestion from someone who's getting the first sample print of that design. I think it's cute and could certainly offer the same in unisex. I like having the rocket design more visible though, so I could also just scale the current unisex design down some. I'm having trouble making these decisions. π

Discounts are nice, but Comic Rocket is worth supporting. π I think I would like to see a shirt with a bit smaller graphic on it in the unisex, but aside from "that graphic is way too large for me", I'm afraid that I don't have any useful suggestion/feedback there. Maybe something closer to the "Womenβs Relaxed Comic Rocket T-Shirt" in the unisex shirt?
