    This is a really cool idea! I have so many of these stupid sweatshirts from highschool laying around at home.

    P.S. I went to click on the site for Conceptual Devices and I was told that it is classified as an attack site. Meaning they either install malware on your computer without you knowing, use your system to do damage to another system, or simply harm your computer. This is probably without their knowledge, or they are working on it currently. Just thought I’d give a heads up.

    Cheers,
    Jared
