Don't mind Frink, it's the way he is. ;)
Merchandising isn't the main focus around here. In fact, memorabilia might not even make the transition to the new board. There are boards more devoted to collectibles like rebelscum you could try.
We've also had server troubles plaguing most of our users in the past week. The site has often been impossible to get past the front page.
I do like the designs, but I'm fuzzy on how you plan to license them. A Death Star silhouette might be more instantly recognizable than a Tie Figther solar panel.
P.S. Your signature image is a bit too big.

Could you resize it to at least 600X120 to comply with the rules? Thanks!
No problem, SilverWook. I didn't realize I was breaking rules with my signature. I've removed it.
As far as licensing goes, to be honest I hadn't given any thought to it at all. We were planning to only offer those design option one time, and only those who were to back the campaign would be able to choose that design. After that we wouldn't make them again so basically we weren't expecting any kind of beef to come our way. After all, how many could we possibly sell over the course of a 30-60 day campaign? Well, okay maybe we'd get a "Cease & desist" order but any kind of legal action takes longer than that so we'd be done by the time it could be blocked. And like I said, they wouldn't ever be available again. Not with those designs but they would be available with our own design(s).
Do you think I'm being naive? I'm quite sure Frink does :-p so no need to ask him, but what about you?
