Hello everyone. Just thought this would be a good topic for discussion. Lemme know your thoughts and reasons why. I would like to see some really dark death eater stuff personally. As well as something like a S.P.E.W. shirt for my girlfriend to wear.
MoonLight
lol I'd like one with the twins.. While they're laughing. tongue.gif And one with Snape.. With the text "Potions Master in tha house" xP And then I'd sleep in it. tongue.gif

I think just some of my faviroute harry potter quotes, piccys, and stuff like that would be good. I've seen a Gryffindor hoodie on CafePress and would quite like that. HP apparel for all!


-----

Oooh! Exciting news! I've just bought a HP hoodie online, and have just got it! YAY! It's really nice and warm. One the front it says 'I solemnly swear I'm up to no good.' and then on the other side it says 'Mischief managed!' It's awesome!

I've got an idea of a SPEW T-Shirt:


It'll have 'SPEW' in the middle in big red letters with a picture of Dobby on a black background. And underneath, the words (also in red):-



BECAUSE HOUSE-ELVES MATTER TO ME



Killian
I'd love a t-shirt with Harry looking really angry and the words "MY DAD DIDN'T STRUT!" under it. When Snape said "What are doing strutting around the halls at this hour Potter, just like your father" and Harry said "My Dad didn't strut!" in the movie I laughed so much. I got a mental picture of James Potter doing a BeeGee's strut around Hogwarts late at night.


I'd also like a "Property of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry" shirt, in a typical high school/college shirt fashion.


Also, a drawn-like picture of Emma Watson as Hermione from Philosopher's Stone pointing to her nose with the words " You've got dirt on your nose. Did you know? Just there." under it. Probably my favourite Hermione quote ever.
Nasuada
There should be some picture on a shirt of a mess of some kind. I can't really think of an example at the moment. I'll edit this if I can think of one. But a picture of some mess and underneath it should say 'Mischief Managed'. Sorry I'm not good at coming up with things like that. My ideas are usually dumb. happy.gif I'll have to think on something involving Death Eaters and S.P.E.W.
Nymphadora Lupin
I'd like a t-shirt with a picture of Voldemort from the OotP poster where he is pointing with one hand, and underneath the caption 'Voldy wants you!'

OR a picture of Tonks where you can actually change her hair colour on the top - I'm sure wizards will have already come up with a top like that biggrin.gif

OR I wouldn't mind one with the text, 'Harry is a Geordie!' with a picture of Harry wearing a Newcastle United shirt! tongue.gif that would be great!
etphonehome
I'd like one that says, 'Harry Potter went to Hogsmeade and all he bought me was this lousy t'shirt'

Or one of Neville holding a snake aloft with the words Snake Slayer in HP font!

Or , because I love Killians idea...how about one of Harry in a white John Travolta style suit, making the old Saturday Night Fever pose, with his wand in the hand that's pointing!

OK really bad I know....I'll go away now........ wacko.gif
Professor Nutbutter
The Dumbledore vs. Voldemort scenes in the OOTP film had some pretty great angles that'd make excellent stills... I might have a crack at it myself tongue.gif

I think the castle at night would be pretty cool though, no text, just Hogwarts in all its glory smile.gif
beekyk2001
A really great HP t-shirt that I think would be awesome. would have to be..

SAVE A BROOM RIDE A QUIDDITCH PLAYER.

(insert pictures of Oliver, Victor, Harry, Ron, Cedric and the weasley twins)

wub.gif
seetherus
Wow. These are all great ideas.

Etphonehome, I like the simplicity of your idea.

Nasuada, don't sell yourself short that is a great idea. maybe some broken potions with snape out cold on the floor in the potions room. With Mischief managed under that image.

Dementoid1, thats a neat visual you got there. I think that spew shirts should be mainly for girls. unless the guys version was of kreacher wiping down the walls or something.

Killian, "my dad didn't strut!" is a wonderful idea.

keep 'em coming. maybe the right people will see these and make AWESOME HP apparel.
Pawprint
Wow! There are definitely some great ideas for shirts in this thread!

I love the SPEW one, I'd also love another one of the mock name that Ron used for it in GoF (sorry, I can't remember what it was...)

I'd love one with that quote that's going around in some avatars that says something like, "HBP: Dumbledore died on page XXX... at least I didn't tell you that Snape killed him."

Some ideas could be, "Harry rescued me from the Black Lake in his second task", "Move along, Basilisk coming through" or "Stop staring or my shirt will AK you."

The one that says "Property of Hogwarts...." is my favorite! I'd love one like that!

Also, Elaine's "Harry went to Hogsmeade and all he bought..." is a great one!

And the one with "Save a broom..." is an all time favorite!
LadyMalfoy
I'd have t-shirt that says "Harry Potter isn't everything, but it's right up there with oxygen" something I quoted from an avatar here. It would have a picture of either Hogwarts or Harry. laugh.gif
forsaken_wolfess
Me and my friend wanted to make either a shirt or a little button that said 'I've been corrected by Hermione Granger' but we never did. *Sigh*
HJP/HJG_TrueLove
i sadly only have one harry potter t-shirt and it was from holiday (winter formal) at my school and our theme was yule ball. its gryffindor colors and its kinda like a coat of arms with all these words around it and on the back it says my schools name yule ball 2008, experience the magic
molly_of_slytherin
I'd love to see art spoofs, like the one with god reaching to adam but with dumbledore and harry. Or the mona lisa with voldie's face:D

and one with a picture of voldemort with the phrase 'you wanna be in my gang?'

Personally, i want a "WHAT WOULD HARRY DO?" tshirt! One for each main character.
mjane95
I would like to see a shirt that says "Wanna go to the ball with me?" (Said by Fred, GOF)
with a piccie of the twins or somtehing like that.

My BFF, who is staying over my house, just made up a saying for a t-shirt.
"Yeah, I', just sooo in love with HP, my friend HAD to get me this shirt"
And another one:
"If your out there Voldy, I WUV YOU!"

I loved the ''Save a Broom'' one. It's so funny!
Animagus36
How about a shirt which says:
'I escaped from Azkaban and all I got was this stupid T-Shirt' tongue.gif
harryp0tter87
Hehe, I really like the azkaban one. But I really like the ones that are like Harry's outfit for GOF that are the black jackets with the red and yellow on them and have a four on the back and say potter..i wuv those!
ChannelingGinny
One of my all time favorite lines is Hermione telling Ron he has the emotional range of a teaspoon, so I'd like to see a shirt with just that on it, maybe a black shirt with white writing in HP font: "Emotional range of a teaspoon, what's your excuse?"

I loved the idea of forsaken_wolfess: "I've been corrected by Hermione Granger"

Given that Azkaban is in the middle of the North Sea, you could have an "Azkaban Swim Team" t-shirt, with a dementor wearing a coach's whistle and/or hat with "coach" on it!

For anyone cocky enough to wear one, you could have "I'm what you'd see in the Mirror of Esired"

And finally, since there are so many good ones out there, I love the "Snapeward" avatar (Squidward from Sponge Bob with Snape hair and potion master's robe!)... I believe that belongs to beekyk2001. If you haven't seen that avatar, please look for it! This would look great on a t-shirt, with or without the "don't mess with snapeward" caption.
Aguamenti353
Oh my gosh, these are really good ideas haha smile.gif

I'd LOVE one with Ron's catchphrase "Bloody Hell", or maybe one from the 2nd movie where he says "Follow the Spiders, Follow the Spiders! Why couldn't it be follow the butterflies?" The shirt could maybe be all white with a little butterfly and could say:

"Here you go, Ron. You follow it!"

I dont know something like that smile.gif

There are also tons of Neville quotes that I think would be just hilarious:

*Oh my gosh. I've killed Harry Potter! (4th)
*Why is it always me? (2nd)

Or maybe a spoof of the "Potter Stinks" buttons the Slytherins wore in the 4th book...

Ha ha, wow, that is the one of the greatest things I've ever heard! That sounds just the Sirius thing to say. Have I seen an icon saying that before?
lianne_nakago
...hey, you've got nice ideas here..

...i like the "SAVE A BROOM..." one. hehe it's funny and cool.

...i also like the "i escaped from azkaban..." and the "azkaban swim team" shirt with the dementors and stuff..

...but my fave so far, is "I'm what you'd see in the Mirror of Esired". it's just cool.. tongue.gif
Aguamenti353
how about "Got Butterbeer?" tongue.gif

with butterbeer mustaches, of course!

Mod EDit: You have been a member long enough to know that one liners/short posts like your are against the rules. Please be more careful. Thanks
ChannelingGinny
I really like the "Got Butterbeer?" idea!

Also, the Follow the Butterflies idea is great, too.

I'd like to hear what some of your favorite lines are and how they could be turned into a witty t-shirt. Perhaps:
Nitwit, Oddment, Blubber, Tweak
mrs.harrypotter
i want to see the Dumbuldore's Army on a shirt.... and crookshanks!!!!! on one shirt and maybe harry with his parents and all the people that died in harry potter 7 and george and fred's shop!!!!! that would look nice


ooooooo and all of the kids like harry's and ginny's and so on
forsaken_wolfess
I think their should be ones that say 'Proud Ravenclaw', 'Proud Gryffindor', 'Proud Hufflepuff', and 'Proud Slytherin' in the houses main character. And one that's black or white that says something obscure like 'Albus Dumbledore's brother was arrested for experimenting on a goat. What do you think of that?'

Oh, and a series of periwinkle shirts that have dumbledore quotes, like:
"Of course it's all in your head, Harry. But why on earth does that make it unreal?"
"It is the unknown we fear when we look upon death and darkness, nothing more."
"I'd like to say a few words: Nitwit, blubber, ointment, tweak."
Nymphadora Lupin
I think one with just "I killed Harry Potter!" in green text for the AK colour ... it's not really funny but I'd get a chuckle out of it haha.

Haha we were making up Harry Potter emails the other day and some could be good on a T-shirt ... others are just inappropriate tongue.gif

I can't think of any off the top of my head at the minute, but I'll post some if I remember them later, they were a crease happy.gif
DracosLady
There are so many things you could put on a t-shirt that is related to HP

Here's a few:

For Slytherin Lovers "Are you looking at me?" "Slytherins are'nt born mean they're just made" ""You don't know me, you have no idea what I'm capable of" with a picture of Draco on it

"Got Slytherin?" like the got milk advertisements but with the Slytherins on the T.

I like the quotes about Neville those were funny, another one for Neville could be "I helped Harry Potter out and all I got was this lousy T-shirt"

For the Triwizard tournament " We came, we saw, and we conquered" with the 4 champions faces on it.

One for all of the houses "United we stand, divided we fall" and show each houses' sheild on it...
xForeverxLoyalxToxDumbledorex
i am aiming to get a tshirt printed with

Harry 7
Voldy 0
Voldys gone mouldy!

and
have a silouette dalek
with 'i am not allowed a dalek patronus' underneath

or
Voldemort holding his wand and but make it a light saber wand thing
with 'i am your father Harry' underneath it

i love the mirror of erised one its fab!
and the broomstick one
and the dementors swim team the person who came up with that i applaud you
that is pure comedy!
Ronnie'sGirl1521
wow. all of u have really good ideas!

Aguament353i: Got Butterbeer? would be hilarious
xForeverxLoyalxToxDumbledorex: i love the idea of Harry: 7 Voldy: 0 Voldy's gone moldy!

a cool shirt would be like a bunch if the main characters like Harry, Neville etc. and then underneath their picture a funny quote that they said.

Maybe another one with a pic of Lupin on it on one side and then a werewolf on the other side and then it could say something funny...idk what though


rebel_megz
Hahaha I know a Lupin one that I got the idea from someone's signature... I can't remember whose, but have a shocked picture of Lupin and a full moon behind him and a quote saying - Oh dear, it's that time of the month again! - that would be funny!
Rachelle-is-a-Ravenclaw
Haha every single one of these ideas sound brilliant! I don't knwo if this one has been done but how about a picture of the Mirror of Erised and a quote in the middle of the mirror saying "who need the Mirror of Erised when you got me?" lol

Or Kingsley Shacklebolt on a t-shirt and a speech bubble saying "You gotta admit he's got style." lol slighly vain but oh well!


Rach

nicky potter
there is a shirt that i want to make with like harry's eye or voldemorts and then like a picture of a city and the words

"no city is safe"

and by the way everyone alot of you have awesome ideas im taking them lol and making my own shirt out of it biggrin.gif

and i also want to make a shirt that has a picture of ron and it says Weasley is our King <3 biggrin.gif that'd be nice
*Priori Incantatem*
I may be a bit biased but I'd love a t shirt with 'for the love of merlin' on it, it always makes me laugh tongue.gif
everyone has really good ideas though, i may just make one!
HJP/HJG_TrueLove
Well I don't have any ideas form this but I do have like one Harry Potter shirt.

We had a Yule Ball themed Holiday dance this year... well we were supposed but that one got pushed back to February so they changed it to Winter Carnival. I got the Yule Ball shirt though, it has Gryffindor colors and it has like the Hogwarts shield on the front and on the back it says experience the magic.
Loony'sCool
Yeah I would buy a SPEW shirt for sure. but a funny one would be.

I went to hogwarts and all I got was this crumy shirt!

Now that would be a funny shirt! laugh.gif
sadie_urlady523
Maybe something that says: Yes I'm in love with a fictional character who vanquished the Dark Lord! You got a problem with that?

I dunno. I just thought that would be funny.
Ginevra Molly Weasley
Hm... I think it would be a good idea to have a shirt with a huge copy of the Hogwarts letter on it, and a big red X over it. Then it would say "Who cares if I didn't get the letter? I'm going, no matter what." Yeah. I'd buy that.
