Hi, Adam just sent me this link on IRC where you can buy some D
(or rather digital mars) merch which I didn't know about yet,
maybe it is also interesting for you:
http://digitalmars.com/gift/index.html
If you buy anything there use the gift code EARLYBIRD25, it
gives 25% off and it just randomly showed for me on the product
page. Got that mug including shipping for 16€ with it (also
because of a sale), estimated arrival to Germany if you buy now
is Dec 5, 2017 - Dec 7, 2017 according to the mail I got.
imo there should be more D merch (and D-Man merch), especially
now that christmas is coming up soon. I just bought the 'Some
Assembly Required' coffee mug but I think it would be cool if
there would be more mug designs and more shirt designs. I would
really like and buy a D-Man shirt like this:

The D-Man svg can be found here:

What are your ideas for more D merch? I think some more shirt
designs with D-man would be really cool. I also saw some D-man
drawing on twitter once which made quite a nice wall clock
background.
Let's gift lots of D merch this christmas :p
PS: can Walter maybe add designs to that page then so it stays
updated? If anyone knows a better site for custom merch that
would be good too, or if anyone knows any companies producing
such products cheap so we could make a custom shop.
I was thinking on making a single-chapter manga on programming,
featuring a redesigned version of my attempt at a D mascot (see
here:
https://ziltoid1991.deviantart.com/art/DLang-chan-624180895), and
it would be a parody of Initial D. I won't do any longer series
on programming even if I see a lot of potential in it, mostly due
to labor cost (and having a lot of other ideas too), although it
would change if somebody would do the art for me, so I can work
on my main projects, also with a different premise.
Other than that, I think simple pins and T-shirts would be great
ideas, I could easily make a few designs using publicly available
stuff like logo vectors, a lot of Facebook T-shirt sellers do the
same, but often with copyright infringement.
