     I've been deciding what gets added to [3][3]https://lpstore.org/
     I'm not aware of the process being circumvented. : )
     Quite often me, or other staff members (primarily Lauren) have had
     our
     graphic designer submit designs for us to consider and we choose
     from a
     selection.
     Aside from staff deciding, we did do a shirt contest once recently
     and
     have kept the 3 best performing designs of the 6 tried:
     [4][4]https://www.lp.org/new-libertarian-shirts-limited-edition/
     Perhaps the LNC could set up a committee to take design suggestions,
     pick the best, and have them tried on [5]LPStore.org.
     Stocking and managing new items is a significant investment in time
     and
     money.
     Right now, I'd rather we focus on getting more phoners for this
     project
     to win elections: [6][5]https://www.lp.org/phonebank/
     Then, after election day, more merchandise can be considered.
