While I was browsing through the Bungiestore admiring the many logos, designs and shirts they had for sale, I thought to myself "That would be nicer with the writing above the logo" then it hit me! Do you think the Bungiestore should have a "Design-a-Shirt" option?

When you went to design a shirt, you could chose the shirt style and colour. Then you would select whatever logo and/or bungie related text you wanted from the sample collection and placed it wherever you wanted.
I've seen people make their own shirts at home but for the people like me, who haven't the patience or steady hand, this would be a much easier alternative. Plus, you would have a truly unique bungie shirt handled by the *magic hands of an employee!!

So what do you think, community?

Definitely not a bad idea, but selling your custom design shirt may in result some copyright issue.

I mean, there's a reason why Bungie's studio president hired Halcyon, right?

It'd be nice, but that's no little task. The amount of money and labor Bungie will probably have to spend towards such a feature would be a lot larger then the amount of money they'll get in return.

In other words: Yes, and they should make gold plated CD cases for every copy of Halo.

And the price also rises with that.

There are websites where you can design your own t-shirts, and you'll be fine if you are making them for yourself.

I acknowledge my user name is stupid. However, I promise I'm not.

Disclaimer: The latter is a lie.

I assume it would very expensive for Bungie to add that to the Bungiestore. Also, I assume the cost of these 'custom shirts' would rise dramatically, and thus I doubt many people would be able to buy them... perhaps not making it at all worth it for Bungie.

Not everyone will buy a custom shirt and anyone who does will surely have paid for the extra labour in the price of the shirt. Don't see why cost is an issue, other than it being maybe 20-30 dollars extra.

"You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don't try to forget the mistakes, but you don't dwell on it. You don't let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space." -Johnny Cash

I don't think that something like that would work for the Bungiestore, but it's not a bad idea.
