[Dragaera] Illumination suggestion for Paarfi-speak tshirt

[Elizabeth Dalton]

I found a medieval Hungarian illuminated manuscript online that I'd like 
to consider using as the basis for the Paarfi t-shirt.

Click the "Festetich Codex." I can use the capital M (assuming the final 
text ends up starting with "My," as seems likely) and a font similar to 
the original in dark brown, and keep the side ornaments, too. I'd 
probably retain the red sketch lines, but not the page numbers (either 
the original or the stamped catalog number). I'm thinking of keeping the 
parchment edges and background, though I'd change the aspect ratio a 
bit, to frame the text. That way, the same image could be printed on 
dark or light items.

What do the rest of you think?

(This project takes me back to the days of my first t-shirt company, 18 
years ago, when we sold shirts at SCA events saying "My pilgrims weynt 
to Caunterbury and alle thei brought me was this saellie scirte." In 
those days, we silk-screened in dark brown and I'd hand color the 
illuminated ornaments... I still have one of those shirts. Or scirtes, 
as the case may be. ;)
