Here’s a site you may not know about: Threadless.

You get a (free) account, and then you can vote on, submit, and talk about t-shirts! All of the designs are user-submitted, so it’s not like it’s some faceless conglomerate a’la Target or K-Mart.

If you’re looking to submit, just go to their site, hit the “Submit Designs” button near the top, and over on the right will be a template you can download. Use the template (or make your own) to show off your own t-shirt design, and then submit it!

Ordinarily, they’ll take 4-8 business days to get back to you, so while you’re waiting, try not to wring your hands nervously too much. If it passes a panel of judges, you’ll be emailed that your shirt has gone up for voting! From there, you have 7 days in which users will vote on your shirt, and you have the ability to post to your Threadless blog, or elsewhere about the fact that your designs are up for voting, and to get everyone to come and help you out!

Now, I’m not advocating all of your family members get an account and help bolster your rating…but I’m sure it wouldn’t hurt.

And on a completely unrelated note…here are my designs that are currently up for voting. Good luck, and be nice!

Roll your own iPod Dock that is!

As you can see, I’ve thrown my hat into the DIY iPod Dock creation ring, with my submission. Utilizing the interconnective powers of Legos, in classic Apple white, I have slaked my need for something that holds my iPod upright whilst charging it. Not to mention it’s one fancy conversation piece. I’ve submitted some pictures as well as a link to this webpage to TUAW, Engadget, and Gizmodo, in hopes I may get a small blurb. Then again, perhaps they’ve grown tired of the ingenuity of the Mac users. So which is it? Only time will tell.

[That, and a batch of freshly-baked cookies.]

Lucky for all of you, I’m in a posting mood. Sorry that I don’t have the 30-post-a-day frequency of Engadget, but then again, the posters at Engadget get paid to post. But I like knowing readers are getting the freshest, so here you go.

First things first. The September 12th Apple Event. What happened you ask? We’ll I’ll give it to you straight Mr. Lives Under A Rock.

• New iPods. They’re being called Generation 5.5, mainly because of the lack of a jump of features over previous models. I wonder if they’re trying to bump up the iPod as often as they bump up computer specs, but it’s not such a bad model anyway. Nothing I’d pick up since I already have a 5G, but for those who have a 4G or earlier would be certainly pleased with it. And I’m sure the new high point of 80 Gigs is a good deal breaker. Or maker?

• New Nanos. No doubt you’ve seen the commercial already. On television (one’s on right now!), Apple’s Website, print ads, or even on espn.com. I like they direction they went, mostly because I always liked the look of the Minis. Not sure the best choice was to make the 8 Gig model black-only, but maybe it’ll be a symbol of badassery. “Oh, look! A new Nano! It’s black, he must be really cool!” Or something.

• New Shuffles. Can they make this thing any frickin’ smaller? I submit that they can not. Well, maybe if they took the clip off, but I like the idea, because you might lose it or something. But at $79, it’s one piece of Bubbalicious-sized awesome-ness.

And then, two days later, came the September 14th Nintendo Event. Wii pricing and release date abound!

• November 19th. All gasps about how it’s two days after the PS3 launch aside, I guess it’s better than being $600. Hell, it’s a lot better!

• $250. This comes with Wii Sports, The Wii-mote, the nunchuk attatchment, as well as free Nintendo WiFi access, and all of the add-on trimmings.

The new iTunes is quite an improvement, though. I’ve heard some whinings about inconsistencies with album art, but I’ve had nothing but a sparkling experience with it. Guess what else you can buy from the iTunes Music Store? Games. Oh yes. Pac-Man, Tetris, Cubis, and a handful of others are hitting your 5G and up ‘Pods now. They’ve been tweaked to work specifically with the click wheel. So download and enjoy.

Other than that? Not too much to report. Look for the big N at the Tokyo Games Show, and Apple on September 25th at/just before Photokina.

What’s that? mc chris is on iTunes? Sweet.
