like the look of that 
EDIT: we should make a list of places to speak to about sponsor/getting it made, see who can give us the best deal.
(whats the name of the company that makes EPO?  )

I noticed a lot of companies make up to 46" chests and I would hope we could get jerseys made to fit everyone, Maybe up to 50" which should cover most folk thus more sales=bigger order=cheaper.
Also what to do with profits?? Either sold at cost or make a small profit and give it to a charity? I know its's more to agree on but better to throw your opinions into the ring now!
Sponsor ideas: Science in Sport
Prendas
Ribble,wiggle or other big online shops
Lidl??
Penguin biscuits
No component makers( we would fight)

If you're seriously serious about this I suspect you'll need to find out if using the Linux penguin is problematic, in terms of copyright/trademark - although their software is open source I'm not altogether convinced their logo is... 
If you bothered to follow the link I posted you'll see that you can use the logo however you like, but credit the creator and mention the GIMP if asked.

yeah i agree with bfergie, its all timestamped and got loads of other junk round the words (from what i remember) took too much thought to understand.
i'm assuming you can spend hours trawling through stuff on wikipedia?

Sorry scm, I didn't read enough of that page to notice...
Anyhoo, here's v2.1 
Haven't credited Larry Ewing (probably do that on the back).
If anyone has Photoshop and wants the file to play with just PM me and I'll get it over to you.

And the pouch has a pouch!
I really like it, the sooner this happens the better!
Imagine seeing another penguin out and about, brilliant!

nice work people
seeing as how we are going to be pumping out the free publicity for the comic and linux it would be great if they could cut us a deal on these things...
anyway keep up the good work.

I read it that the credit and GIMP mention was only necessary if you're asked .... There are loads of Tux images about and none that I've seen has a credit.
Your design looks good, BTW - I might be tempted to add one to my Tux collection ....

I'm merely a facilitator, this is just a start point. You're the guys who'll be wearing the end product so whatever the consensus is I'll try and implement in design terms.
So huddle down and if there are any other ideas you want to explore let me know and I'll see what I can do.
