An observation: the Brannock/circle looks like a "not" sign (i.e., Ghostbusters-ish), which conjures more of a negative vibe, which is likely not something Paul is going for. I'd suggest just the Brannock device, with or without text. But the circle and the device hanging over the edges at 10:00 and 4:00 doesn't look or feel right to me.
I don't buy white T-shirts either. Or gray. Pastels are usually my preference,since I already have a ton of red ones from being a fan of 2 red teams in baseball and hockey.
Think both the image and the text should be on the same side, preferring the front. Think the text of your header has style. I never buy white T-shirts though, too difficult to keep them looking pristine. Most popular color for me is black. I could not click on poll, it says something went wrong.
I voted for option 3. And a suggestion even though you didn’t ask for one. ’-) putting the device on a light colored background, maybe a yellow circle, with a green border, which would open it up to be printed on any color shirt. I’d be open to buying one in a color other than white. Cool idea btw, Paul. And congrats on your alignment with the Brannock folks!
Big fan of "IYKYK" items - most of my current rotation of tees fall in this category these days (since my daughter found out I like them, that's all I get for birthdays and other holidays!) Not a big fan of white though - just can't seem to keep them clean!
I voted for #2. Keep the cost down by front-of-shirt printing only. And the text below to help build more awareness of the "Inconspicuous Consumption" site name.
I love pocket tees. I would like to suggest putting the name of the site on the pocket, and the brannock, no circle, on the back.
I agree with Matt N. Lose the circle; the Brannock device speaks for itself. A very small Incon/Con would be okay and would engender conversation. :)

100% agree. I could never figure out why the logo was 🚫 and just guessed it was something inconspicuous that I wasn’t clever enough to consume
Brannock/circle icon, NO text, please!
Love the no-text version!
I'd love to see the Brannock device on the sleeve!! Like an ad on a uniform. 😏😉
YES!

Black with a white device, no circle (it looks like a 🚫 from even middle distance), no text. Just the device. Let those who don’t know wonder.
my thought is to have the site name on the front, sort of in place of a pocket. With the main image on the back
yes, exactly, only with a pocket!
What about the Brannock Device with the IC logo in gray/black like on your page header?

Replying to myself…I suppose printing in multiple colors would add to the cost so feel free to ignore the above.
The option I'd vote for isn't listed, so I'll throw it out there, because I know people running polls love that.
Remove the circle, which I think is a nice effect on your tattoo but doesn't do anything for a T-shirt.
After that, Option 2, but the words Inconspicuous Consumption should be small. Like someone would have to kind of get up into your kitchen to read it.
I agree. the circle looks to me like a "no Brannock devices" sign
no back printing, please. front printing only

Option one. (the poll is not working for me)
