OK - for some of you that are wondering you can now select Bitcoins at checkout. Shopify unfortunately does not have an integrated cart system (if your a developer and would like to integrate one, we'd love to speak with you).
Otherwise the process is as follows:
* Browse/Select the items you would and go into the checkout as you normally would.
* Enter your shipping information as you normally would
* Select "Bitcoins" (BTC) as your payment option
* Once your order is received you will get an email confirmation within 12-24 hours that will give you a payment amount based on the current Mt. Gox exchange rate as well as a payment address for your order
Once your payment is received I will print/ship your order!

It's hard to believe but today is Bitcoin halving day. Since Babbletees accepts Bitcoin (or BTC) as one of it's payment methods this is significant.
For those of you that might not know what Bitcoin is, you owe it to yourself to check it out: http://www.weusecoins.com/
When the reward drop arrives as indicated by the clock, it means that the amount of Computational power needed to mine enough Bitcoins for a T-Shirt has literally doubled overnight. There are many views on what this means for Bitcoin, some thing that the price will double (not likely as a result of this), others think that computational power being given to the network will drop (reducing the difficulty, thereby helping to even out the prices).
The reality is that both are right, exactly how this ends up shaking out will remain to be seen. But this milestone is the first of it's kind for Bitcoin so it will be interesting to see how this plays out.
There is a convenient countdown clock right here: http://bitcoinclock.com/ that allows you to see exactly when this historic moment is set to arrive.
Here at Babbletees we will be having our own BTC halving party, and if anyone out there has any ideas for Bitcoin themed t-shirts - let us know!

Dear Mr. Warhol: Last week our Committee on the Museum Collections held
its first meeting of the fall season and had a chance to study your
drawing entitled Shoe which you so generously offered as a gift to the
Museum.
I regret that I must report to you that the Committee deiced, after
carful consideration, that they ought not to accept it for our
Collection.
Let me explain that because of our severely limited gallery and storage
space we must turn down many gifts offered, since we feel it is not fair
to accept as a gift a work which may be shown only infrequently.
Nevertheless, the Committee has asked me to pass on to you their thanks
for your generous expression of interest in our Collection.
Sincerely,
Alfred H. Barr, Jr.
Director of the Museum Collections
P.S. The drawing may be picked up from the Museum at your convenience.

I'm kicking off the next back of t-shirt designs with some vintage color wheel studies reworked on groovy new t-shirt designs celebrating the amazingly colorful world around us. This first one was taken from a 1907 thesis on color study created by an unknown artist. It could have been just an exercise or a full on project, either way I found it beautiful and so I adjusted it and put it on a new tshirt design for all y'all to wear. Here is the source image along with the finished product (you can have it printed on White, Silver or Creme depending on your personal preference). Enjoy!!!! The full collection of new designs can be found in our Newest Designs section.

The Babbletees T-shirt Design Ethos - our Creative Processes that lead to flippin' wicked, unique
designs.
I'm often faced with this quasi-quixotic, quacktacular question and many other queer quandaries from fellow creatives. These so-called “Graphic Artists” (Umm.. just because you nefariously acquired Adobe's most glorificus (props to Buffy, yo {if anyone is actually following my dribble and knows what i'm referencing, please e-mail me for a FREE TSHIRT CODE}) software and think that doing so makes you a designer, well, IT DOESN'T! Yeah, I'm a cut-throat classically trained design snob, info-graphic-fanatic and tyrant twiddler of typography - so, like, deal and enjoy the pretty things I create for you :) that somehow our derivative work created for commercial gain is blasphemous. I say nay, nay to you.
It's quite simple – everything visually constructed in our sensory realms built using previous work of others – upon the shoulders of the amazing Graphic Design Pioneers that forged a new Fine art out of creating art with a purpose – GRAPHIC DESIGN.
In effort to further this design ethos and spur your creative process I'm going to post totally free tools, shortcuts, textures, elements or links to vast Public Domain libraries in our LIBRARY section for your enjoyment. The Library is an on-going work-in-progress so PLEASE check back for updates or let us know if you have any further free graphic design resources. Please feel free to share your creations or share further resources. Create something cool and unique out of something old – it's fun. ENJOY!!
