Re: [microsound] Microsound tshirt V2 with image



I remember the old shirt. Why was there a lack of response to that?
Was it too serious, too boring, too normal (insert a complaint here).
How can you possibly please everyone? Impossible. All you can do
it show it to the masses and get feedback. I think if someone
hates the shirt, then you have done something right! :-)
