I had some “L” logo stickers made up a while back and was going to mail them out to users myself, but I never got around to it. The sticker vendor now has a marketplace thing where you can buy them yourself directly, so I figured I would offer them up here for anyone that wants one or ten. They are a 2" matte sticker.

Note: These do not change colors based on load.

Here is the 2" sticker on an 11" laptop for reference:

      Please bring back the low quality downvote.

        I considered screen-printing t-shirts with this ink for the red part. It would look like a blank shirt in normal temperature and the normal logo in sunlight, but nerds don’t go outside so nobody would ever see it change.

          you could’ve done it the other way; print a red square that is red aside from the L, then colour the L with that ink; then if we ever DID go outside, it’d eventually hide the L and just look like a red square.

        Does the money here go to you? I’m totally happy to pay, as I greatly appreciate lobsters and will put money towards that, but I’m just curious.

          They have an option to add a percentage on top of their base price of $2.63 which would go to me, but I chose 0%, so no, I do not get any money from these.

          Anyone want a smaller one? maybe 1" square?

          @jcs You could make this a simple way to contribute to lobsters running costs. i’d pay $5 or $10 for a sticker if the amount over $2.63 went to you (or whoever runs lobsters, I have no idea)

            I’ll contact them to see how to get other sizes added.

            As for the costs, I figured if I need to raise money for server funds in the future I would do it as its own thing so that people that want stickers can get them cheaply and those that want to donate can do so separately.

              They can’t do other sizes that I haven’t ordered a batch of yet, so I guess 2"x2" is all for now.

            Where did you get that white sticker in the middle?

            1. 14

              It came with my Palm Pilot.

              Anyone in the UK interested in a group buy? Their bulk rates are a lot cheaper and if we can find a home for 500 stickers, shipping is free! (otherwise, we can get 25 before shipping goes up by $43…)

              edit: durrrrrrr we can find another sticker printer in this country.

                Nice. Ordered 5 for the Lobsterers at my office.
