OK...I have splashed out some coin to get this up and running. I have purchased the domain and now we need to start organizing. Please respond to this thread if you are interested in unpaid work for the benefit of all.

Also, sonsofben.com is now up...I will be working on it tonight.

Let us know...visit the site. Fill out the interest form and help me build a list of names of SoB's. Also the unfinished logo is available in the shop.

Is that the final website of the SOB?

Looks like its coming together, but man, does the Jolly Roger have to be the logo? I thought we were going with a Jolly Franklin? You know, a Skull/Bones with bifocals. :(

But the idea is great. How can I help Bryan? Maybe a broadcast to the phillysoccer.com email list?

Dill0n has been lollygagging. I attempted to bribe him today. If you read closely, that's not the final logo :p

quoted for emphasis, and the benefit of SP.

talk about needing bifocals.

the bribe has definitely worked, and now that there is something tangible (i.e. the website and shop), the impetus is there for me to finish cranking the logo out. that's the main reason why i produced the PPSF logo so fast ... the group was in place, and there was an immediate need for it.

I think since the group has nothing to do with the original "sons of ben" you need to start up a new article...movies and books of the same name usually have different articles on wikipedia.

You may want to look into printfection instead of cafepress for shirts. It's cheaper, has a much higher selection of colors, and the quality is much. much better.

www.printfection.com

CP does have mugs and stickers, but printfection is the way to go for shirts, IMO.

Never did zazzel. If it's the site I'm thinking of, Zazzel's higher quality than CP for sure, but there's no easy online store to set up.

CP's still the way to go for mugs and stickers. Definently download the templates, though.

Ok, we're growing in pretty huge numbers will minimal advertising, I think we're up to over 40 members in a week. Does anyone think it's time to start letting potential investors (the ones we know, anyway) and Commissioner Garber know about our progress and the enthusiasm for MLS that has grown in such a short time?
