GALLERY!!! http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=306045.0There has been a lot of enthusiasm for the "Sciencey" swaps and the various "geek-friendly" telly programmes swaps... so why not a Geek chic swap?
For those who would not know what Geek chic is, Wikipedia to the rescue! There you go :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geek_chicCome on, we all want a nice stencilled t-shirt with a big 'super Mario' mushroom on it or a Monty Python quote, a quirky necklace made of buttons, a scarf that spells something in binary, a fractal teddy bear, something to decorate your carrel at the university, a t-shirt with your field of studies written on it, or perhaps a XKCD pin! Think about the possibilities!
