Default HCF Shop?

I just got a crazy idea.. What would every say if I was to open an online shop for HCF merchandise? Shirts, hoodies, posters, boxers, coffee cups, you name it, and it could be done. I was just wondering what everyones take on this would be, honestly.. I thought this would be pretty badass. I'd love to have a HCF shirt, and sport it around school . Or maybe a HCF mousepad. You get the idea, i'm sure.

So whats everyones take on this? Yay or Nay?

And if this is wanted, i'll just talk to some admins (point me who to talk to :P), and clear the idea by them, or if they see this post, i'm sure it'll get past them.

So.. Users of HCF, whats you opinion?

We have one here but we are only selling license plate frames now. Other members have sold t-shirts and decals in the past.

those plate frames are cool... they'd be better if they weren't chrome, though

MXS - Ahh.. I see. Sorry, I didn't know there was already a store.

Civic_burns_all - Yeah, thats what I kind of planned. Maybe put a 10% markup on the items, and get use the markup money as a donation for the forum, or something like that.

95civic1.6l - I'd be more than happy to. But, I think i'd need permission first, or at least wait for MXS's response or something..

I figured i'd make a REALLY dedicated store, and maybe start a thread as to what people think would be good merchandise to make, and general stuff like that. I'm sure there would be people more than willing to buy some merchandise.

I've been a graphics artists for generally about 5~6 years. I have my own website (www.nerdramblingz.com/tst its my comic, actually). And i've done ALOT of photoshop work, so i'm really good with it. You can check out most of my old work at www.vilex63.deviantart.com, I havn't been there for about a year or posted alot.. But, it'll give you some ideas of the work i'm capable of doing. But, I understand that IS only graphical artwork, but.. At least it will reassure some of you who are probably thinking "Oh great, we have some noob whos gonna make a store and rip all of us off, and probably doesn't even know what he's doing." but, to assure you. I already have one store up, for my comic website, for some fan stuff, and some other stuff.

But, I appreciate all the opinions guys. Its glad to see some motivation from people .
