Something that’d encourage people to upload to commons would be good though – I did get a WM Commons Christmas card last year from Mr Forrester! Postcards would be cheap, easy to make, and we’ve got some wonderful pictures. But would they be good at getting people to upload?
To clarify, I faked a range of seasonal greetings cards with the Wikimedia Community logo and a reference to the source from Commons on the back, using Moo. Partially as a prompt to people about doing merchandise, to be honest. :-)
I know I'm really sad, but a Wikimedia logo lapel pin (in coloured enamel) would be very nice for regular office-workers like me who want to demonstrate the wiki-love in their regular lives. And of course, Wikimedia Deutschland's lanyard that's so over-specified you could use one to attach your parachute to it are great, too.
