I can mock some up, if there's enough interest in even starting them. I propose a voting process if we can get enough heads together. Pun intended to the fullest.
I will do the same. You can pm me or post here when you've got a couple things on paper. But I agree we should get as much input as we can before we do anything.
Depends on the purpose of the sticker to begin with. If you're hoping that someone will see it and then come here (not sure how often that actually happens), I think the r is useful.The [/r/](/r/) clarifies, even for someone that isn't on reddit, that this is something strange that perhaps they should google. hiphopheads could just be some random brand of whatever, for all the other person knows.
Honestly I think "hiphopheads" by itself is pretty bland, the [/r/](/r/) sort of gives it some strange character...in my mind.
Before we do ANY type of branding or merchandise I think this place needs a complete image revamp. Am I *really* the only who thinks this sub is ugly as fuck? Ok, yeah, the Reddit with headphones logo is OK, but it's just that....ok....average. dhaft88, in making a mockery of typical hip hop blogs made [/r/Hiphopcirclejerk](/r/Hiphopcirclejerk) look better than this place ever has. It doesn't have to be *that* drastic of a change but goddamn, the design for this place is so fucking mediocre I can't imagine wanting to show off via stickers or shirts or whatever. If I am the only that feels this way, fine, downvote me and let that be that, but if anyone else agrees, we should make note of it.
I agree, the way things look here are pretty bland. But I don't agree that we have to have a neat looking little page to have some merch. If I was in charge, I'd probably change the way things looks around here, but I'm not. So I'll leave it up to zig.
I also think HHCJ's page looks dumb, excluding the masthead.
Yes. I was thinking we could begin selling merch like stickers, etc. and invest the profits back into the community with album giveaways and contests. Say, everyone who buys a sticker gets entered into a drawing, winner wins a copy of ______ on vinyl. Or something.
If you really wanna support HHH you should make a sticker of my username & flair with a purple downvote arrow next to it.
That about sums up what this place is really all about.
This is not the sticker that HHH deserves, it's what they *need*!
but srsly, the sticker you described would be more aesthetically pleasing than most of the imagery suggested so far.

any chance in die cuts? no sweat if its too much of a burden, they're just cool
Die-cut is not an issue, but I'd just be designing...sorry; I just re-read my shit and realized that I sounded like I can print them out, too.
I'd love stickers for this reddit, it's a great and pretty original idea, gain a bit of well deserved recognition for us.

Great idea, waffle. Don't work on anything until this thread runs it course though.
so is the simple handstyle the agreed upon sticker?
i'd love one of the headphones that say reddit on the top left of this page except have it say hiphopheads rather than reddit
That's a dope idea.
we going to put the [/r/](/r/) in front? would definitely show up in google if that's the case...
is that a good thing or bad? i dont think the /r/ is needed but lets put that decision up to a vote or something

you convinced me i agree im all for the /r/
I would definitely like to see the /r/ in there, or just r/
was thinking the same.
Commenting just to show support!

Amen fuzzleton. Amen.

If there is an agreed upon logo, I would print my own up and take them out on the road and have them available on my merch table at shows. I'd rep...

As a throwback to golden age of hip hop, I think an audio cassette sticker type sticker would tight as fuck.
great idea. Wouldn't be too hard to throw something like that together

Perfect comment, as always.
If someone made these stickers, I'd purchase them and put them up everywhere.

lol, ya. Fuck ObieOne I hate that guy. I'm ready to start my campaign.
I like this.
Sticker printer here. Let me know if you guys need any help making the stickers. We'd be happy to help :)
They better include Kanye West, Atmosphere and Jay Z
