I looked at the shirt you posted just now, and for the price, you can design your own with stuff front and back. Remember the shirts I was posting on fb a while back? All my own design, all 25 bucks plus shipping. I really want the lannister shirt I posted, still working on a Targaryen design I'm happy with, and none of the Stark designs I've done or seen online are worthy, to me.

Oh you dirty girl teasing me. I cant wait to read on the bike tomorrow!
If you are going to purchase any swords from Valyrian Steel, please save the money and splurge on the damascus steel version.
I bought the regular version of Longclaw, and while it isn't evident from the pictures, the "laser-etched" ridges were very deep, and made for a really awkward texture on the blade. Almost kind of cheap-looking.
Luckily, I bought mine "damaged" (there was a slight curve in the blade that I still can't find...) at a rather reduced price. And yes, I really do love it, I'm glad I didn't play full price for it.
Pics Pond!
I would, but I am currently at university, and the sword is back home. Sorry.
If you lot can hold off until Thanksgiving Holiday, I can post pics, but right now I simply don't have access to it.
It'll be hard, but I think I can wait. Will you remember?
I dunno...I certainly hope so! If you can remember, feel free to shoot me a reminder come mid-November.
But, until then, trust me on this one. It will totally be worth the extra cash. Those swords are simply stunning!
Well i asked if you would, because I have a terrible memory! Wait what are we talking about again?
Oh, not much. Just about how you were offering to buy me this really nice sword...
Oh yeah I remember something about a sword, however if it were from me it would be crocheted!
the ridges are fake damascus, so they're supposed to be deep, I guess.If you are going to purchase any swords from Valyrian Steel, please save the money and splurge on the damascus steel version.

I don't know about anything not damascus. If they make a damascus Dawn, I'll seriously consider it. but I'm not paying 600 for something I can't use.

I guess I should clarify about the ridges. Whereas the website says they are "laser-etched", it looks more to me like it is an additional layer of metal they laid over the base blade.the ridges are fake damascus, so they're supposed to be deep, I guess.If you are going to purchase any swords from Valyrian Steel, please save the money and splurge on the damascus steel version.

It really isn't a huge issue, if $600 is too steep. That's why I went with the version I got. Just something to consider. It's just not as smooth as you think it would be, by any means.
It really is a beautiful sword....especially with the wolf head pommel. Sorry if I made it sound as otherwise. Just wanted to give you guys a heads up if you are thinking of buying it, so you aren't surprised like I was
ETA: Very cool shirts, JonI don't have money right now, but my birthday is in a week...maybe if I get some cash from relatives? The Stark one, in particular, is quite nice!
Getting one soon, I hope. I'm still not happy with the Targaryen design yet.

Did you ever find a good dragon?
People love frozen yogurt. I don't know what to tell you.
Not yet. I need to find a .bmp one, so it's easier to mess with the background.

If you guys have been keeping up with Winter-is-coming.net, you've seen all about the Moot that was held in Belfast last week. Lost of the cast and crew from A Game of Thrones got together with GRRM and fans to just have a meet and greet party. I soooooo would have loved to have been there.
Here are some awesome pictures from the Moot:

I especially love the picture of Renly and Robert together and I never realized how super duper hot Finn Jones is, the actor playing The Knight of Flowers.
And man, the guy playing Samwell is dead on looks-wise.
I am Daenerys Stormborn and I will take what is mine. With fire and blood.
Oh wow there are some hot young men! The guy playing Jon SnowRenly
Seriously! We're going to have some major eye-candy.
