You know, I was thinking, it could be cool if a colaboration happened, less 
a contest. How about this idea, ok, the lowercase people release a nice comp 
each year, maybe everyone could develop ideas and graphics/art, we could 
create a library of art on the hotline server, then everyone could create a 
design direction using those "visual samples" process them how-ever you 
wish, then the directions could be posted, he could discuss what works and 
does not, then put together something from that, then look into ways of 
raisng money to have it printed, and with the money made perhaps one of the 
labels that enjoy the patronage from all the 1250 list members may help 
subside a comp of list members.

I guess in thinking about it, it seems the (kim) shirt is cool, but money is 
involved, and that is not a worry to me, its obvious we all enjoy the fact 
that the hotline server is free to us and eloy most likley donates his time 
and efforts via web design, so its fine that Kim make's some cash selling a 
shirt. BUT we can also try and do something that involes all the list 
members and create something together. Not to be little kims efforts and 
that of the production artist involed. No one would even care about a 
microsound t-shirt had kim not had the idea of creating one. OK I am a 
hopless idealist.

This idea may also be totally useless, but it could apply to developing 
something else, maybe a nice 4 color sticker, in fact why would he really 
need another microsound t-shirt??? or another microsound comp??? Maybe a 
nice sticker to slap onto unmicrosound places???
