Welcome to the Carver Site!

Welcome back! I've only been hear 5 years. But, nice to meet an "OG". You all started a very cool community.

I can see how Discogs would be a problem for serious collectors. I only use it just as a database for my collection and I have used it to buy records that I want from other users. So, it's okay for my use. It also gives me a rough estimate of the value of my collection...but, since I never really intend to sell, that's not all that big of deal for me (other than knowing what I paid for a record is in the ballpark of the market price). But, yeah, there are way too many versions of the same record/pressing.... nobody is cleaning that stuff up. I don't use the forums or get involved with debate over the records.... really didn't even know that was going on in the site, lol. But, knowing the audiophile world, I guess that's par for the course. Hard to find an audio forum where people are having 100% constructive, polite, conversations. That's one of the things I like about this site (though there have been some rough patches here, too).... most everyone gets along with each other and is very helpful on the Carversite.

Okay, folks, Carverfest 20 is coming up around the corner and I committed to coordination of some t-shirts. I've been trying to come up with a design that works. I've gotten input from a few of you. @straylight Thank you so much for your ideas. This is the latest concept pic I've generated. But, I really need some feedback. I am confident that we can get this design printed accurately on t-shirts. And, we can also make polo shirts with just the logo at the top, as I proposed in a prior post. I will commit to setting all that up with a vendor such that all of you can go buy the shirts directly from the vendor (and I don't have to be in the payment collecting/shipping business). Also... and I mean this sincerely, if anyone else would like to take on this challenge, I would be more than willing to defer. I'm not one of the OG Carverfest participants. And, my creativity is limited (I'm an engineer after all). So, you can't hurt my feelings and I certainly don't want to step on anyone's toes! I'm just a guy who likes to fool around with AI to make images, lol. So, here's my proposal/ask: Let's do 1 more week of input from all of you, I'll generate a couple more concepts, you all can vote on those concepts the following week, then I'll get on with setting up the vendor around mid May. Thanks everyone! @sea Do you think I should socialize this in another forum besides this site?... let me know. Thanks.

Welcome!

I wonder if @sea has any thoughts.... Ed, I think you've done some work on these speakers, correct?

Welcome!
