There doesn’t seem to be any movement on merch for the AusChristmasLighting group, so I just wanted to ask: who do we need to run things by to get something started?
If no one else has the time to organise it, I’m happy to get the ball rolling. Open to ideas from others too — anyone got thoughts on what we could offer or how we could go about it?
 
It might not be everyone’s thing, but given Christmas is in summer, perhaps a limited run of some funky stubby holders?
 
This has come up in conversation a few times over the last few years and the general consensus is that most members would love the opportunity to purchase some merch to wear/use with pride during the year and also help support the site, and I'm all for it. Product ideas, designing products, website and transactions can all easily be done these days.
However the somewhat sticking point or unknowns is the legality of using the ACL names and/or logos. My basic understanding is we'd need to get written approval to use these from the copyright/owners which I believe is either or both AussiePhil and Fasteddy, both of whom do not frequent ACL much any more (last sighted 9 & 6 months ago respectively) so trying to get their engagement could be a slow process. This does not mean everyone needs to start smashing their inboxes, but I'm happy to have this thread as a bit of a conversation starter to first document what is required to move forward, and the Mods & Admins will take action as required.
 
(If someone with more graphic design skills than me wants to a) take a crack and a great logo and b) publicly grant the permission around using it..... that sounds like a pretty good option to me)
 
In the past people have just had stuff made for themselves or to sell at minis etc and no-one seemed to care about the use of the logo. There is a good copy of the logo floating around the place that someone made for this specific purpose. Let me know if you need it.

I would like this logo please.
 
I would totally buy a pair of earrings and a ladies top if they are ever made, however I have a feeling I may be waiting a while for them as most people in the hobby are gents 🙃
