Coffee Tees

Postby CGP » Sat Jun 13, 2015 8:03 am

I'm a member of another forum online about ice hockey things (ModSquadHockey in case anyone cares) and there's a thread on there that I really like so I'm stealing the idea + merging it with something I like, coffee t-shirts!

The MSH thread is all about showing off your team's new jersey but I want you TMC people to show off your coffee t-shirts! Maybe it's from my many years of being a barista but I love getting my hands on coffee tees so thought it could be interesting if there was a thread where people could show off (mostly so I can show off) their awesome tees :D

So, let me get the ball rolling with my tee for today, perfect for an 8 hour barista shift at The Shrewsbury Coffeehouse! (not that I think the people of Shrews know what 3FE is)

Not at t-shirt, but I think you can get them. It's a cool poster though.

EDIT - Can someone remind me how to resize pictures with the image tag?
No, sorry, but I can resize it for you. :D

Usually with the command [img=100x50][/img] where 100x50 is replaced by your preferred size. Having said that, it doesn't seem to be implemented by default on this version of phpbb. We used to resize and upload or link to a resized photo. We'll look into this as a modification may be available.

That's what I thought. Thanks, I'll resize the photo and upload when I get back to the computer.

Sorry to be so cheeky as to muck with your post, but I wanted to see if inserting an image works as it should.

It would make a good T-shirt. BTW, someone on FB recently spelled it Eckspresso. :roll:

I decided I needed a bit of a change so I roasted some Monsooned Malabar. That was a change!

Ah, added as an attachment. Don't think that would have worked from my phone, but it's good to know that option is there. Thanks.

You can get the t-shirt at http://www.dearcoffeeiloveyou.com/no-x-in-espresso-—-the-shirt/

I had that t-shirt! Was always fun to wear on till when a customer would order an eXpresso and I'd wonder if they'd seen my t-shirt or if we were about to have an awkward moment.

Am sad I never got my hands on an evil Prufrock bunny shirt.

That is a good picture, and makes me a bit envious because Yirg is still my favourite bean. :D
