The Bzpower T-shirt Project
Phew, finally kicking this project into gear!

First things first: "What are you guys doing?"
You look in those pics of BrickFair or BrickFest and see those staffers in them snazzy BZPower staff shirts? Then you see the members wearing their rainbow of a wardrobe, looking all... yanno... normal? (Seriously, guys-- you're Lego fans from BZPower. You're not allowed to look normal.) And then you want to, if you ever go to one of these conventions, have some sort of uniformity to make y'all look all sharp and awesome? The aptly-named BZPower T-shirt Project is intended to address this and more!
Imagine walking down the halls of the Tyson's Corner hotels in your lovely BZPower member's t-shirt, getting admiring oohs and ahhs from passerby as they dig your sexy and snazzy member's shirt, catching whiff of your lovely perfume or cologne (perfume and cologne sold separately). You can walk with pride and without a care in the world in your custom-made BZPower member's t-shirt.
"Sounds epic. What do the shirts look like?"
See, that's the thing. We don't know. We don't even have a design or even know what colour the shirts will be. Why? Because you guys get to design the shirts. Yes, not only will you get to wear the shirts, you will also take pride in a sense of artistic ownership of the designs on the garment.
Imagine you walking down the hallway of the hotel again. "Oh, nice shirts!" a cute girl says in that carefree Southern accent. "Where'd ya get them?"
"I [helped]* make them," you respond.
"Oh, rad!" she says. She may even ask for your number.
* added because we trust you will have some degree of decency and humility and not take all the credit.
"So, how does this work?"
We'll have a few days of spreading the word around, and I encourage you to put on a Project banner (Nice assortment here! =D Thanks Lazzy!) and link to this entry from your blogs, if you have one. After this PR period, I will start a contest here in this blog, also posting rules and stuff when we decide on them.
Once the contest finishes, we will look at the entries and decide on the one we will use on the T-shirt. Then, voila! They will magically appear and be available at BrickFair this August.
"Just BrickFair?"
No! They'll also be available at BrickCon this fall, and BrickFest next spring, depending if we have enough interest.
"I'm staff. Can I have one too, pweese?"
Absolutely! You're all members, too. =D
"I don't have any plans to go to any of those conventions. How can I still get a shirt?"
Depending on your location and your desire to get a shirt, we may (or may not! haha!) be able to ship a shirt to you. =3
