Might I direct your attention to Cafepress? You can upload images, design your own T-shirts and they'll print them for you. They do good quality work too. :D

I decided I was going to go to that one year. We were going to London one week in the summer a year or so ago and I thought we may as well go there one day. Bit annoyed when I found out we were to go on the monday after the convention was held... Post your findings though. Might be interesting.

see... we're not all bad.

I was considering going to MVM expo last year... and the year before that.

It's heavily associated with NEO magazine... which i was an active member on the forums of for some time. I also have a few copies of the magazine *prods desk draw to his right*

No it isn't. It's MCM expo. Movies Comics Media. It covers a wide range of things. There's quite a lot of anime/manga stuff but there's also a fair bit of sci-fi stuff. Also movies. NEO have a stall there, that's pretty much all the influence they have.

It's always pretty crowded.

Yeah, yeah. i have rather bad habit of mixing V and C.

The first time I knew of it NEO were a rather big contributor... though that'll be 2/3 years ago. Meh, maybe I'm mistaken, or NEO blew themselves up a little, ego-wise.

NEO were, and still are one of the main sponsers of the event if my memory serves me right. They have a pretty big influence on it. There are, though, a fair amount of main sponsers. On the adverts they put in their magazine, I've noticed they make their logo quite a bit bigger than the rest of the sponsers' logos. That would probably be what gives the impression they have more influence than most...
