I 've had a T-shirt with the TUG logo for years. It is so big that I use it as a beach coverup. Many people have asked me about it, and of course I am happy to tell them about TUG and to invite them to visit our website.

for stuff like that, the cafepress store is likely your best (and cheapest) option.
http://www.cafepress.com/timeshare
i can upload some different pictures to it however...let me work on that.

ok heres the dillyo =)
I have uploaded a variety of images to cafepress, various ones used throughout the site. I will link them below here in a second.
What I want is to change the poll to vote on which ones you want to see, and what items you want to see them on.
I can then go in and modify the cafepress site to produce those products for you.
What I will do for all of you die hard tug supporters, is offer a free membership extension for any shirt purchased. Just send me the reciept for your purchase so I know whos membership it is...and this will be an easy way for you to subsidize your TUG swag...essentially making it free (or close to it depending on the shirt you buy!)
in the next few posts ill add the images and the poll

image 2:
an old tug logo I found digging around, but it might look nice on a shirt!
image 3:
this is the actual image I use for the tug banner, the source image is quite large and im not quite sure how it would go on a tshirt...ill go ahead and assume they will scale it down quite a bit =)
image 4:
one of the other newer official TUG logos.
image 5:
this is the current cafepress default logo for all merchandise.
image 6a:
image 6b:
these two appear to be for a top/bottom custom license plate...although I dont see it on the store at the moment.
image 7:
another custom TUG image I found on the site.
(also if you would like any other TUG images you may have uploaded, ill be happy to do so!)

ack, i see the first one doesnt appear to blow up very well, we can likely exclude that one from going on a tshirt...might work well on a luggage tag or coffee mug or button or something.

created this plain white t-shirt with the logo on the front chest, and the TUG banner logo on the back.

Why not have people who want them send you a self-addressed stamped envelope? That way you won't be out anything.

I really like that idea. I wish I had a stack of TUG stickers or something cheap to hand out during all my vacations. I tell so many people about TUG, but then I need to find something to write down and explain the website. Most have never heard of it.
Maybe we could sell generic Tug Fan business cards with website logo & URLs? The backside could have 1 2 3 instructions for newbies to get acquainted and feel comfortable joining us. I'd love to buy & hand out a stack of those if they are reasonably priced.

I have been thinks along the same line, pass out business cards to fellow resort guest to guide them away form the "90 minute sales pitch" and I would liker to have my own user name(Black Diamond) attached as a way to show that I am for real and no just another sales rep.

all wonderful ideas
also, before you buy anything off the site...might want to wait...im coming up with a better design some of you may like...itll be similar to the round black oval - 3 letters in the middle type icon listed above!
Its begun to grow on me!
like this...but ill be adding a bit more to it (the name and the link to the site)

Yessssssss !
Perfect.
All it needs is www.tug2.net in little bitty printing inside the oval, centered under the big TUG.
Worth waiting for.
That's it !

It is indeed a nice clean logo, but id be lying if I said I did the work. It was provided as a sample of some other logos from a TUGGER PeterS! :whoopie:

k, uploaded these to the logo shop if you wish.
I may tinker with the design more...specifically to add the TIMESHARE USERS GROUP moniker to the top of the oval as well (inside)

great idea. I like it.
How about the same thing in a oval coaster. The cheap carboard type you get at bars. Might be a nice thing to accidently leave at a resort or two.

ill dig around cafepress for that, but I didnt see it in my first go around.
there are some coasters listed however...i believe they are just regular square ceramic ones.
I think ill order some of this stuff myself just to see how it turns out!
Itll make great xmas gifts for my father! lol!

Brian, a suggestion: Change the font color on "TIMESHARE USERS GROUP" and "WWW.TUG2.NET" to dark red. And maybe reduce the font size a point or two? Otherwise it's really good, I think. That'd work for me on a sticker AND a ballcap.

Brian,
You are definitely on to something.
Is it possible for a TUG MEMBER to get credit for a referral by simply getting the "Guest" to submit his or her membership and use the referring member's USERNAME?
If so a lot of the Membership could purchase business cards at a nominal cost and ask the potential new member to check out the site.
On the business card the TUG MEMBER could put his or her USERNAME on the back and request that "if" the NEWBIE decides to join use the TUG MEMBER's USERNAME as the referring member.
There are many TUG MEMBERS who could thereby become Lifetime TUG Members. The TUG MEMBER benefits by reducing the cost of membership and TUG would benefit by dramatically increasing the number of members.
Once you get the logo finalized we need to get those business cards set-up with a few simple instructions for the newbie on the back of the card.
A few hundred two color business cards with the tid-bits on the back and a specific blank line for the card purchaser to put his or her USERNAME would get the ball rolling.
Some ideas for the back of the card:
