You can't keep a man with good intentions down.
I'm looking at re-starting pinball t-shirt production in my basement...this time, without copyright issues! Should have went this route to begin with...hindsight is 20/20.
I am currently talking to the guy that did my Funhouse tattoo--Kirk Sheppard of Vancouver, BC (http://www.kirksheppardtattoos.com)--to draw something up pinball-related to grace a fund-raising shirt. Most of his stuff is of the low-brow/pin-up/traditional tattoo style, and I'm sure it would translate well to a pinball themed image. I believe he'll be doing the work gratis as the shirts will be sold to raise money for charity...
Also, after sending a request to John and Alec who put out the fantastic Drop Target pinball 'Zine (http://droptargetzine.blogspot.ca/), they mentioned the possibility of using (again, with no charge) one of their original hand-drawn images that appear in their 'zine to appear on another shirt.
So its going to be all nice and legal this time (stuff it, snitchers)...I'm looking forward to raising some nice coin for Sick Kids Hospital and this site starting in the fall.

R
