I'm not the biggest fan of promotion through me as a billboard
- I can just imagine a whole world of Freedivers walking along like robots wearing DB t-shirts!

Honestly, the reason i'm looking into this is two fold:[list=1][*]Whilst the PhD Tees have been popular, I have had a lot of feedback from people saying "great! but what about a DB Tee".[*]Also, it costs a ton of money to run this site and as you may have noticed we've been introducing ways of generating income recently (Donations, Phatdive, The Shop). This is basically because we want to make the site the best out there and to do that we need to start paying writers and flying to exotic locations to cover Record Attempts. Unfortunately this all costs big bucks and the only way to bring money in is to sell stuff![/list=1]
So there you have it - as honest as it gets! (not that i'm not honest normally )

As far as designs go - initially it will just be a simple design with the Deeper Blue Logo (and small web address under it), plus probably a simple design on the reverse of the product saying "Deeper Blue" or such like. Later we may look to introduce more funky designs.
