January 20th, 2008 : Barrage of New T-Shirts!

I am so excited to finally announce this. Starting today, we are offering a new line of t-shirts with literally dozens of variations. We are still working on setting up all the new variations, but we have started to put some of the final ones online.

The basic concept is “School will be my Death” where in we feature stick figures getting clobbered pummeled or otherwise injured via a dangerous object that has been labeled with the name of a class.  See right for an example.

We have  a number of different variations and are working hard to add more. We are opening up for suggestions for the next classes we’ll be adding, so if you want a certain class to be added, drop in a comment here and we’ll look into adding it.

Be sure to keep checking back in, because we’ll be adding more styles on a weekly basis.

Well, what are you waiting for? Click the link: http://www.printfection.com/landofchaos/School-will-be-my-Death/_s_142607

November 5th, 2007 : Mario Kart T-Shirts!

MarioKartBalloonShirtNew t-shirt in the store today! I only wish I didn’t have to go through CafePress for my designs. (If there is anyone out there capable of printing shirts for me on a per-shirt basis (and who wants a piece of this sweet shirt action), drop me a line. I’d be willing to see if we could negotiate some sort of deal.)

Anyway, every Mario Kart fan in the world should be jumping at this shirt, which is to say: Everyone.

This Mario Kart inspired shirt features 3 balloons, one of which is floating away. The text below reads: “It’s all fun and games until somebody loses a balloon.”

If you’re looking to buy the shirt, follow this linked text to the store.

Enjoy!

October 4th, 2007 : New Metroid Shirt!

I just received a new t-shirt today, and I have cleared it for sale at my online store! I’m excited, because it’s a Metroid shirt!

The front of the shirt depicts a broken canister with a freed Metroid and the words: “The last Metroid is in captivity. The galaxy is at peace.”

(Click on the shirt or this link for a larger view of what the front of the shirt looks like.)

Shirt is now for sale! Buy the Metroid Shirt!

August 31st, 2007 : I need your money more then you do.

Hey all! I had some free time this afternoon and added some more greeting cards to the website. So if your in the market for cards… check it out. I hope to get some more winter ones added soon, I just have to skim through about 15000 photos to find the ones I’m looking for.

August 29th, 2007 : Christmas card, now on Sale

I finally got around to adding another greeting card to my online store. If you are looking for Chirstmas Cards, you might enjoy this new one. (Contact me if you’re looking to buy in bulk, and I might be able to get you a holiday sale.)

July 7th, 2007 : Panoramic Photo for Sale

Well, it’s taken me a lot longer to get around to doing this then it should have, but I have finally started out. From here it’s going to be a slow process getting the other photos up and going, but as of right now, I have one panoramic photo for sale on my site. For a meager $65 you can have a 43.5 inch x 15.5 inch picture of Jay Cook State Park for your wall.

Oh, as a bonus, I am also offering the choice of paying with PayPal or Google Checkout. For your convenience.

Photo store is now open, and I’ll be adding more products over the next few weeks.

Go to the Photo Store.

May 27th, 2007 : Land of Chaos Store

Products Pie ChartSince I have a week or so of free time before I start up my glamorous summer job of putting electrical tape in boxes, I thought I would take a good look at my store sales and find out what the most popular shirts are. I also decided that it would be fun to see where my shirts are being sent off too. The first graph I came up with was a graph of the different shirts that we sell. For this graph I did not differentiate between the different colors of shirt or styles of shirt, but simply by the name/artwork of the shirt.

As expected, our “i 8 Sum Pi” Shirt was the most popular shirt we sell. I’m happy for this, because I think that is one of our better shirts. It is also the first shirt we came up with and decided to sell. It makes up about a 3rd of our shirt sales. I was happily supprised to find that our “Dante’s Hell Tour” shirt was the second fastest selling shirt. I was hoping this shirt would do well because it’s a really neat concept.  I was quite surprised to find the “FrodoLives.org” ware being the third most popular product sold. Frodolives.org is a rapidly failing concept site that I don’t have the time or resources to take care of. I haven’t given up onit completely, but the whole Lord of the Rings Movie fad is wearing off and any fan site needs a new angle. I’m pretty sure I haven’t found the angle yet. Next on the list is the Element Wall Clock, which is a sweet little chemistry based clock. And in the fifth place comes my “Vectors on a Plane” shirt. I haven’t sold many of these, but at least I sold some. I still have a few vector shirts I want to make, but I haven’t gotten around to it. Soon though, I might get a chance.

Location Pie GraphThe next thing I took a look at was the location of where all my shirts were headed off too. The first thing I noticed was that I actually had a few shirts that had been sent to Canada. This made my day, I’m fully international now! Minnesota came up as the number one location of purchasing, but seeing we are located in Minnesota, that’s not surprising. California is a fairly close second on the list of locations, followed by Ohio and Flordia. I only hope that the people buying the shirts keep spreading the word.

Right now, I am looking ahead to the next few summer months.  My plan right now is to add more shirts to the store, and fix a few of the shirts that I have. I have a number of small tweaks to the inventory, a few shirt styles will probably be dropped, simply to keep the line of shirts a bit more standardized. We also have a list of new shirts that we have to make.

Over the next month, I also plan on setting up a bunch of new Photography products, from greeting cards, to Panoramic Photos in a new section of my online store. Hopefully this will pan out as expected and these products should start to become availible near the beginning of July. I hesitate to announce this in fear that it won’t get done, but giving myself a public deadline is a great motivator.

There are a lot of new things happening, so be sure to stay tuned.

Take it easy!

April 6th, 2007 : 90% Vegetable

Couch potatoes, prepare your wallets! Another new product from the Land of Chaos Store.

April 6th, 2007 : New Shirt: Y not?

y not?The geek in me comes out yet again, while doing my math homework.
For those who are not as math inclined as myself… which sums up to basically everyone else, barring the 4 people who are planning to major in math and the 7 others who teach it…

Anyway, when using a subscript of zero, the subscript is often referred to as “not”. (Or I suppose it could be “knot” for my purposes, I am saying it is “not”)

If this glowing description doesn’t make you want to run off and buy one, well… sorry, I’ll try to do better nextime.

Speaking of next time, there are more shirts on the way, we’ve got some great ideas coming in, so stay tuned for more news on the t-shirt front.

UPDATE: The image now links to the picture. My apologies to anyone who tried to access the shirt but couldn’t find it. Apparently I made an error when I input the image, and although I kept changing the link for the image, it kept changing it back.
