Submitting designs
This can be an image of what would go on the shirt, or an actual mockup. The store is hosted by Printful, so be sure to check out their print guidelines before submitting. Then, comment the design here and I will add it to the market.
Designs should be on-theme for Manifold and not infringe upon anyone's copyright for a chance at being added. Message me or comment if you want access to any specific Manifold design assets that you can't find yourself.
I recommend finding the example item first and working backwards if you have a specific application in mind. See file guidelines on the product pages. T-Shirt | Hoodie | Stickers | Hat | Mug | iPhone Case | Other Products
Check out previous cool designs for inspiration from when this was done in 2023.
Feel free to submit other cool ideas alongside your design, i.e. "a Whale design, which is priced very high and a more reasonably priced Minnow design"; or, "A positive graph design which requires the Market Maven achievement, and a negative graph which requires the Wealth Redistributor achievement". No promises that we will be able to do it, but don't limit your creativity!
To get an answer added to the market, a working image/mockup must be provided
The creator is not the sole decider - moderators can add answers they think are worth adding
Users can "like" comments of designs they want added, which will influence what gets added to the market
Update 2025-10-25 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): Moderators can request the creator to add answers by pinging them, and the creator will add the answers moderators desire. Admins can add answers whenever they want without needing to ping the creator.

3.00Example for how to submit: Manifold Logo submission!
Logo is an SVG and can be recolored and resized to fit any size/shape/item. Mockup is for an embroidered cap
This mockup is really bad as I did it in half a minute on Google Photos. Probably not a "working image". Everyone: feel free to polish this and resubmit it. I'm imagining Manifold and the corresponding logo as creator.
I've been meaning to submit something for a few days. I was planning on doing a couple others first, but I found out some folks rediscovered Manachan so this is what came out.
The text is (intentionally) broken Japanese that says roughly "my waifu / predicts the future", inspired by all the clothes and logos in Japan that use incorrect English words and grammar for style.
h/t to Andri for showing us we could use online tools to put the design into an example (a bit finicky but solid results in the end).
I'll try to get my other ideas done soon
@Stralor ahaha I think the purple color doesn't look great, but the pink one looks nice and perhaps a lighter version of Manifold lilac as the base shirt color (if possible?) would look great
@bens very reasonable! I added the soft blue outline around Manachan and the modestly darker colors around the text so this design should work on any lightness/darkness of shirt (or other merch?) that people want without getting washed out. I hadn't decided on what color base made sense so I just picked stuff
@EvdZ there was a “nothing ever happens” related submission but I haven’t added it, it’s a rich theme and I don’t want anyone to think there isn’t room for more designs to that theme
I definitely expect something of this nature to be very popular in the end
@jgyou im also working on a repeating all-over print with the logo, trying to figure out positioning and layout. its not like an understated embroidery, but its less memey. I'm sure we'll get good options together soon!
@Stralor fwiw printful embroidery is a bit limited in size, so it’s easy to embroider small parts in different places but large front or back patterns are easier as a print
@Gen and I will produce the clean logo embroidery across a few different colours for different items, some are already done (e.g. the cap)
@Gen yeah I wasn't intending any big embroidery, I'm aware it's a whole different ball game. I guess I'm just saying "I'm working on a logo-only design" for those who want that
@Stralor (and I figured you'd be doing the simple logo version. I donno why I assumed that, but it seemed like the basic mandatory version that the team would handle themselves)
@Stralor it’s also possible to do the logo embroidered on the front, with a large print on the back, and or prints/embroderies on the sleeves, etc.
They cost more, so likely to get less interest, but the opportunity is there. If products are designed well enough that I can just drop them in and people want them, it is really straightforward for me to make them available (if not for mana, for $, but everything should be mana)
"Calibrated Measures" - are joyplots out of style yet?
Includes the charts for the 80 resolved binary markets with the most total traders, sorted by average probability throughout the market to make it a little less chaotic and more aesthetically pleasing. The market with most traders (LK-99) is at the bottom, since its average probability is the smallest at around 4.4%.
@andri I like this one better with a small version of the logo on the front left, instead of underneath the text.
