Perhaps an idea for next year, we can develop a "Cards Against Humanity" type game with a vintage computer theme to sell. There are custom card printing services out there that could produce them. We could call it "Caps Reject Circuitry" or "Bits Shifting Endlessly" or whatever. An example card set could be... "The smoke coming out of my Apple II was caused by _______" - A RIFA - Too many slots filled - Someone saying Commodore was better.

Vinyl, YES! Paper, don't waste my time. LOL
What makes you say the VCF logo isn't OK as-is? Just curious. I am not graphic designer so I have no constructive criticism to offer, I guess I am just used to it, and kind of fond of it and its designer.

Laptop stickers are generally high-quality, full-color, die-cut jobs

These are thick vinyl with a tough matte finish.
This is what has become, for lack of a better term, industry standard in laptop stickers. Cheap paper or single-color screenprint is meh.
Sizing can vary but fitting somewhere around a 2x2" square is a popular size, or ~1x4" banner style.
(This is an odd thing to try to explain!)
I feel like the official VCF round logo isn't perfect as-is - it needs to be inverted or something, the black background isn't right for this.

That's a good one! What size? Bumper sticker? Or round (3 inch or so). Or smaller.

We are looking for ideas and suggestions for swag that people will

buy at VCF East. We already will be selling t-shirts & polos. Likely we will have mugs, baseball caps, mousepads.
Does anyone have any great ideas?
