Alas, I cannot say, since I don't have a vendor account. I just thought it was funny and wanted to share. They're out there... somewhere... though.

If your not involved with the vendor then you can post the seller

Problem is *I* designed it... If any vendor out there wants to talk about it, though, I'd love to see these ALL OVER the place.

I would talk to swaghappy if I were you. They have a thing on their site saying they are open to new designs. And they will give the creator a free shirt

Ah-hem. I know where you can get this shirt, and I'm NOT the designer. Am I breaking any rules I need to know about?

Well...part of the beauty behind that shirt is... it's just as effective when worn by a woman as when worn by a man. Maybe more so. After all, what's more believable, a man tooting his own horn (no pun intended), or someone else tooting it for him ? (again, no pun intended... well.... )

Oh, that's hysterical! Oddly enough, it was the first thing that popped into my mind when I saw the title of the post.

So, where can I get one?

Yes, though it might put me in a bit of an awkward position (pun intended, of course), given that both my SO and my bro drive a MINI. I can only attest to the size of one of their, uh, horns.

That is awesome! I so want one of those. If vendors do get a hold of this and start making those, I'm so getting one.

Kudos to you Imago for designing that.

That's awefully generous - send your designs so that someone else can make money off your creation and you only get one shirt? Doesn't sound like a good deal to me.

There's a place on the internet called Cafe Press where you can make your own shirt. No minimums and the quality is decent. I made up some shirts for my dad when he accidently drove his garden tractor into the pond. :D LawnJockey. Had a pciture of him riding a lawn tractor with water wings. He still wears it. :D One could certainly make their own if they wanted to. The resources are out there.
(Hopefully I didn't break any rules here, I'm pretty new to NAM)
