Making a T-Shirt?

I've been thinking of ways to make more money online as I have a pretty big subscriber base... I would be a idiot not to try to take advantage of that. The only thing I could think of that I could make money through is, merchandise.

But I don't have any catchy lines that I say lots, nor would I put it on a t-shirt. Honestly I've browsed youtube celebrity t-shirts and some of them are just awful and it boggles my mind who would actually buy one.

Take this for example:

This is from Chris Crocker. The first thing that came to my mind was, honestly who is this T-shirt geared towards? Obviously the only people I could see buying this shirt are males who are gay(sexual preference not gay, gay). But still its so offensive you can't wear this shirt outside, you will get glared at. so that really limits who would buy this shirt.

So the main goal I see is to make a T-shirt that you can wear outside and people won't look at you and think your a creep, but it still means something when you put it on, this is what I came up with.Pretty simple, it doesn't infringe youtube logo's copyright as its just "tube" but the "tube" clearly is from youtube so people know what your talking about. Its kinda funny/witty as its P'Diddy's "Vote or Die" so you will get looks of "cool tshirt" instead of "cum is thicker then blood.... what a weirdo!" overall its not a embarrassing shirt at all to wear and I could picture people wearing this out in public, and the cool part is you don't have to be a fan of mine or anyone's its a simple t shirt that represents youtube, so the amount of people that could buy this is limitless and hits all demographics.

What do you think? Would you buy this? It would be a $10-$15 tshirt as that's how much most T-shirts are worth. I'm still looking into this as I have 2 options buy a large quantity of shirts myself(Med and large and possibly small) and ship the shirts myself to whoever wants one or set something up at http://www.districtlines.com and their companys makes and ships the shirts themselves but obviously they would get a cut from the profit.

I also thought why not let a subscriber make a shirt? They make a shirt design and post it as a video response and the one with the most views/ratings I'll take that one and turn it into a shirt and the person who made the design would get a free shirt. From ratings and views I could gauge how many people are interested in that shirt and I could set up contests along the way.

Like Maybe from all my profit I made on that t-shirt design take a percentage like 5% and use it as a contest for all the people that bought that shirt) Also having someone design a shirt for me would start a new tshirt for me each month. I REALLY REALLY LIKE THIS IDEA AND THOUGHT THIS WAS ABSOLUTE GENIUS ON MY PART

So how much is 5% for a contest? Well lets figure out how much money I would make from a shirt. I have almost 8000 subscribers I would guess 5% of that subscriber base would buy a tshirt so 400 people and I would think I could make $2-3 if not more off a t-shirt so 400x2=$800. Thats a good chunk of change for me and $40 for a contest that your automatically entered when you buy a shirt? Thats pretty good deal and if it really takes off I'll be making more money and my contests would be bigger I'm talking Ipods, cds, movie tickets, Rs members cards.....etc.

How cool would that be? I'm not a greedy person and I always want to give back to my subscribers, so the contest thing is absolute must for me, and I think it would be awesome selling point that gives that extra incentive to buy a shirt off me.

But anyways what do you think of this?
(note: this will get turned into a video once I get back from Hong Kong but a little input would be great also note all these numbers and ideas are just ideas but I always round down to compensate for everything. If anything the numbers I used should be higher)

Note: the shirts do not have shipping yet added to them, thats the only downside. So it would be $20 per a shirt aprox.
