#33Hey, this is super cool!
Genuinely think you would generate much more interest(and less confusion/knee-jerk anger) if you had the option of having the code printed on the shirt overlaying the blocks.
I'd definitely be interested.

#34What sort of code would people want on their shirts?
main(k){float i,j,r,x,y=-16;while(puts(""),y++)|&IH%*#"[k&15]))for(i=k=r=0;
j=r*r-i*i-2+x/25,i=2*r*i+y/10,j*j+i*iRe: Shirt.codes: Get a T-shirt of your favorite code snippet
#35No XL?
Is this like Abercrombie and Fitch where they only want the hotties in their shirts?

There is XL if you select "Unisex." The default sizes are women's sizes.

(Just fixed it so that it shows Unisex sizes by default.)

#37goto fail; goto fail; ...or are we past that joke now?
Been there, done that, got the t-shirt.
(In fact, I wore it today - someone else printed them right after the disclosure).

#38The shirt seems to be a color shirt, no? It's pretty impressive to do a single custom shirt for $25 (or maybe it isn't? I don't know about the economics of t-shirt printing). I would love to know more about this, if someone has more to say (or link to a resource).
Yep! I used scalablepress.com to print my shirts. It's extremely to print a single custom shirt from them--I was surprised, too :).
Cool, thanks for answering. I hope you won't mind if I pick your brain&ways a little more. So, some questions:
1) Are you doing this white-label?
2) Is this a "passive income" side-project, or something you've put a lot of time to? (Well, it's clear that you've put a lot of time to it... it's a beautiful finished product in every way, but I'm still curious to know how much effort has been put into this)
3) Are you working closely with scalablepress folks, or do you find their api to be powerful enough that you need not get in touch with them?
4) I see that just the blocks are being printed, not the code. There is probably a lot of demand for the printed-code shirts - why not go for that? (is it markedly more expensive to print text on shirts?)

1) There's no branding on the shirt at all. The shirt is shipped from Scalable Press, so I'm not sure what the packaging will say, but I imagine they have something in place for white-labelling.
2) "Passive income" side project, though with all the HN hate it's turning into a bit more scrambling than I'd imagined :).
3) I do ask them questions since I'm a pretty early user of the API, but it's pretty well-documented at this point so I don't imagine you'd run into much trouble developing on it.

#40I love the abstract and colorful look. It actually is really nice without being based on code! Some more code samples for people to click through could be fun to play around with too. Have you printed one for yourself yet? A photo of you wearing a shirt would be wonderful.
dojo4 [1] (Boulder, CO) built and subsequently took down a similar product called Speakteesy [2] last year. It's really hard to get the pricing reasonable, show people definitively what they're going to receive, and get a quality shirt. We did our best by generating a to-scale proof image using ImageMagick that a user would see prior to paying, but it wasn't a huge help. Lastly, the shirts.io [3] service was our fulfillment backend and, barring some light documentation in areas, was great to work with.
Good luck!
