| Sport Your Support
Wear your heart on your sleeve and your voice on your chest. Rock The Vote and CafePress are hooking up to help you make a difference. Today marks the beginning of the "Sport Your Support" t-shirt design contest where you can use your political voice to win yourself a trip to one of the hottest inauguration shindigs in DC, a Gibson Guitar, or Shepard Fairey Art!! Rock The Vote gets a portion of the proceeds on every contest t-shirt sold and somebody gets a great t-shirt. Everybody wins. For the fine print and the nuts & bolts, go to your official contest page.

|  With the upcoming election causing a stir with everyone in the U.S., Cafepress says, 'Let there be opinions... on shirts'... and there were. We told people to go out and start something by donning an article of clothing that would spark political conversation. Being the type of people that lead by example, we have put our own 2 cents in (left). Whether you're riding the Obama Train or your still holding strong with Mr. McCain, we know you've got something to say. Maybe neither of those two are your particular brand of vodka... let everyone know.
Make a video. Take some photos. Make a statement.
The finer details:
- This is not a contest. Everyone’s a winner. (You’re good enough, you’re smart enough, and goshdarnit – people like you.)
- We will be showcasing our staff favorites on the blog.
- Video: upload to YouTube. Tag is cafepresident
- Photo: upload to flickr. Tag is cafepresident
- Submit by Friday, May 16
- Shameless self-promotion is welcome in this endeavor, as long as
it’s in the spirit of starting conversations and changing the world and
all that good stuff. A screen shot of your storefront simply isn’t
compelling – but a photo of your family all decked out in garb from
your shop is. Awww.
- Please, this exercise is one of sharing and community. Let’s all
play nicely together and remember that tag spam is bad form and will
engender negative commentary.
So that y’all could get an idea of what we’re looking for, we made our own videos.*

| You are now tuned into CafePress on Xanga. That's right. No place is safe. Gang Green is here. We are here to help you express yourself like nobody else can. With a community of millions of creative people, whatever you want to say, you can find it here. On the off chance that you can't find exactly what you're looking for, we're gonna take the classic action hero credo and run with it. "If you want something done right, then do it yourself". Okay, now imagine that being said in a half Dirty Harry - half John McLane - with a sprinkle of John Mason thrown in for good measure, accent. Yeah... Just like that.... Sounds cool doesn't it?
Stay tuned as we keep you up on what's going on and what everyone is talking about. There will be lot's to talk about... Oh yes... There will be lots.
-Rickety Rocket
