store and also your own
storefront :-) I'd rather not have to do it separately from your storefront if I can
avoid it. I'm finding the cafepress system a bit difficult. I expect that despite that
you have allowed me to use the word Wikipedia, that their system will just auto-flag it
and their policy of not using organisational names may still apply. It seems easier to
just throw my lot in with yours if possible. One good thing about cafepress was that it
had a good range of sizes to include larger sizes that we often can't find in our
local stores.

Hi Rosie - I'm in the process of finalizing a new Wikimedia merch store that the
Foundation will own and operate, which will ultimately replace (and decrease
overhead/customer cost) cafepress.
You would be able to produce the designs with just the use of the name Wikipedia on
cafepress or a similar service independently if you wish (and host those through
women4wikipedia.net).
It's understandable that to promote activity relating to Wikipedia, you have to use
the word. Use of the Wikipedia stylized name and/or the puzzle globe is a different
matter.
I'm also in the process of developing some prospective design samples that I think
would nicely complement the work of this group, and we could incorporate your logo and
designs.
We hope to have the wikimedia storefront up and running by the end of the month - getting
it ready to share with the community now. In the mean time you could place your designs
on zazzle or cafepress on your own (via an independent storefront). I'm going to do
some research into the current cafepress store to see if you could also add the design
there until we wind the cafepress store down.
Thanks!

Hi all,
I was wanting to create T-Shirts for sale to people supporting Women4Wikipedia using the
images on the page found
athttp://women4wikipedia.net
I was wondering if they could be added to the official merchandise shop on
cafepress.com
since the Wikipedia name may well be trademarked- besides it just seems the most logical
way to go about it?
This is the page where the current
cafepress.com designs were decided:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Merchandise
I'm not sure how to go about things from this point though and whether our designs
can be used? The small header image is licenced CC0 but the larger image further down on
the page is currently not in the public domain. I need to know what license is most
appropriate should we be given permission to add it to the official Wikipedia merchandise
designs. This larger image is also available in varying colours for different coloured
T-shirts, as is the header.
