Slogan Slingers increases odds of earning

Slogan Slingers, the site where you can compete to have a company purchase your slogan for up to $999, used to just have contests that one writer could win.  But now they've changed the rules slightly, and if a company likes more than one slogan, they can purchase additional slogans for $50 each.  So even if your slogan doesn't win the contest prize, you may still be able to sell it.  (But you have the choice whether or not you wish to do that.)

If you haven't signed up for Slogan Slingers yet, check it out -- it's free to join.

T-Shirt Hell's new topical idea contest

T-Shirt Hell is always open to submissions of shirt ideas or slogans.  But every so often, the site puts out a call for ideas on a specific theme or topic.  The current topic is "customizable joke shirts."  They have a couple of these shirts for sale already, including "Support our troops.  Except Ron, that guy's a dick" but they're looking for more.  Send in your ideas for joke shirts that can be customized for specific people, places, or things.  Instead of the usual $200 per accepted idea, T-Shirt Hell says they'll pay $500 for each customizable shirt slogan they buy during the current topical idea contest, so now's a great time to submit.
