Pretty sure you're not supposed to use the reddit logo without permission of the reddit team.
I think this could cause a lot of legal problems, especially if you're not asking for permission.
Otherwise looks good.

how about just a QR code on the back to a sign-up page with the shirt-wearers referral code?

#15If I were a startup, I'd probably just give away t-shirts for free, maybe just charge a nominal shipping fee. the person who is wearing it is advertising for you after all.
Most startups don't have money to shell out free t-shirts. I would gladly pay for a t-shirt to help out a start up though (similar to what bands do).

This is great and something Dropbox should do. This would make for great PR. The QR code idea underneath my post would be great on the back. Just a huge QR code.

The Dropbox shirts comes with a TOS that they own the cotton.

They're official reddit t-shirts from the reddit store, I assume the startup has been given them by reddit
Re: Show HN: My weekend project, Startup Tees
#19Sorry, but why would I wear a DropBox t-shirt? If I'm an employee there or something, it might make sense. It also makes sense if you identify yourself with a particular large company's ethos like Apple / Google, but I just can't see myself wearing any of these ...

#20Good looking shirts are all about good fit. None of your models have a shirt remotely fitted for them. The pictures currently do a disservice for both the shirt and the model! Fun idea, though I am not convinced it will go far as a business/way to make money. I have seen this a couple of times. Sites like http://www.startupschwag.com/ had to eventually give it up despite a good initial publicity buzz and following.
Why did they shut down? I couldnt find this info on the site.
roddy from StartupSchwag here. It was time for bigger and better things =)
