The idea isn't mine (it belongs to Mike Graham, aka papna), but he told me it's okay if I try to make a shirt out of it. Here's a proposal shirt: it's not *really* the idea that you buy this yet (but you're free to, of course) -- mostly so other people can see how it looks on a shirt.</div>
<div><br></div><div>The shirt is intended as a parody of the Gadsen flag (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gadsden_flag">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gadsden_flag</a>). Hence the bright yellow color and lack of apostrophe in "dont".</div>
<div><br></div><div>Feedback is welcome: do you think the layout or relative sizes should be changed? Is the apostrophe being missing okay? Is the font OK? It's currently Cardo, because Cardo is pretty and it's a serif font from the correct period. papna has raised the concern that the fine lines may not screenprint well, and I should use a more humanist typeface. People with Zazzle experience welcome to chime in there.</div>

I don't know if there are too many to fit on the back of a shirt though!)</div><div><br></div><br></body></html>
