Where is the store?

Seems its link was removed from slackware.com, and store.slackware.com gives me nothing. Where can I buy t-shirts?

The store is no more, as they weren't giving Pat his share of the money.
See the thread "Donating to Slackware" on this forum.

also the relevant discussion in the same thread

If you're specifically after Slackware t-shirts, you can get them from https://www.cafepress.com/volkerdi

Pat confirmed that this was genuine here: https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...ne-4175458575/

The Wikipedia page needs to be updated in that regard.

I just updated it. I might work on that distro watch entry too - it's dated at 2015.

Just in case Pat sees this, any word on using the original logo instead of Flippy in your Cafe Press store? Also, any word on what happened to the old merchandise from the Slackware store? Thanks!

I also would like to see shirts and other stuff with the original logo.

In the "Donating to Slackware" thread, Pat says it's just the flippy logo for now due to limitations on free CafePress accounts. https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...ml#post5889067

I'd love some original logo merch too. I'm crossing my fingers that maybe we'll get more merch with 15's release. If not there are dozens of sites that let you make your own shirts/mugs/etc. We could use those and then make a donation to Pat's paypal to ease the guilt of bootlegging.

Looks like the slackware.com/getslack page needs to be updated as well. It still points to the old store.slackware.com site.

Also, it would be nice for links like the aforementioned cafe express link to be listed at the official slackware.com site. That would no doubt help generate more traffic and hopefully some coin for Pat

I need a new mouse mat! Old one is worn out with more and more coffee and red wine stains! Still religiously being used though.

Here is one possibility,

IIRC, this site is affiliated with Mr. Volkerding, but I don't see a mouse pad,

Thanks, but looking for a new one of these

On my second one now, and was hoping to get a third... Have tried others, but it's not the same!
