How about something like this ...http://img3.etsystatic.com/000/1/5675625/il_fullxfull.331450367.jpg
with the upside down letters.
Black with white lettering is always a safe choice.
Tho, i think the grey with black could look good too.
You could always have more than one, and I can talk to my friend to see if she can help with the designs. She's pretty awesome and has done many t-shirt designs before.
Also... Are they not willing to print in colour O.o
I agree. Have "PAX AU" upside down and underneath it, have "PAX Melbourne, Australia 2013" in smaller font, maybe?
is growing on me
I have none of the dollars to pay her.
Yeah its all good if i was going to make a profit off them, i wouldnt mind paying the rate.

EDIT: if you do a kickstarter then can donate a set price per shirt and just collect on the days of the expo = DONE!

but that's my idea....though most of the time they're crap!
i don't mind paying for a shirt cos most of the stuff at pax will have to be purchased anyway

(Are there images yet that everyone can see but me? I feel like that's what's happening.)
Oh and if you can't find someone to design the t-shirts, I'll be willing if you need.

Like, you start up a Kickstarter and make the T-shirts one flat price each.
Everyone "donates" to this Kickstarter and chooses the design they want
You send them an email, asking for their name, size and phone number (just in-case there is any problems)
They reply with said sizes
You reply to them with a "ticket"
They bring said ticket to the event
You mark them off, take their ticket, issue their shirt
I really don't mind doing the Kickstarter side of it, but you need to get one of each shirt made so you can show it off.
You need to get this started by the 1st of April, give everyone 1 month to "donate" then you have 1 1/2 months to get them ready.
If you want to talk to me more in-depth about it, message me on here.
EDIT: I found a website called Tee Junction which look good and are Australian Owned.
We are looking at $25 per T shirt. They also have a online designer, so I would suggest to everyone to play around with it so we can compare ideas.

tl;dr "What happens depends on the shown interest here on the forums, No kickstarter, T'Shirts to be collected at the event or postage paid in advance beforehand."
So I was hoping for more interest to be shown in the shirts, i can get a good price if we order around 100 and @ 100 shirts we stop getting charged extra for larger shirts / Ladies T's. So for, not so good. I might in the end just come up with a design and post it here with links to various T'Shirt printing services.
I cant use Kickstarter as @zerzhul has said. Why cant we use kickstrater. Kickstarter is a _for profit_ organisation. They take 5% of the monies raised as their cut of what ever is done. Penny Arcade does protect and has every right to protect their IP and no one should be making money off their brands or events but them. If im not making a profit on it or copying one of their designs (I was planning on running the final design past @esadsad) then we should be ok. The final arbitration is up to the good folks at Penny Arcade. Please remember there will most likely be a PAX AU exclusive shirt available from the team at penny arcade anyway.
T Shirts will need to be paid for via pay pal, or preferably a direct bank deposit. I will issue a ticket via mail to you and you can pick up the shirt at the event, the ticket comes with my mobile(cell) phone number and my twitter and email addresses. If you prefer for it to be mailed to you before the event you will need to pay for postage, within Australia this shouldn't be more than $5 for an overnight bag, and to the states $20ish depending on which coast your on.

Even though it's not-for-profit, PA may still say no to the use of anything Penny Arcade or PAX. I seem to remember the forum crest shirts, which are also no-profit, had a restriction that the word PAX couldn't be printed larger than 4 inches. It's best to run this by them first, before you get far in the design/ordering process.
I personally like the idea of using the word "paux" because it's like faux and these aren't the official shirts.

The results are in and it seems like PAX AU but upside down is the winner, with the I survived PAX AU shirt in second place. With less than 50 interested persons, 26 voters, theres not enough mass here to get a shirt run off. What I'll do is work on a shirt design and make the design available if there's no concerns from the Penny Arcade people.
I'd like to thank everyone who contributed for their info, and i think next PAX AU we can probably get this off the ground.

I do like the dangerous animals idea, with the "Survival" theme. +1'd
Now there's been quite a few more voters, I hope you've had success convincing the Powers That Be to go ahead with one or more of these ideas
