Thank you all for the submissions. Overall some general advice in the last day and a half. Simpler and flatter is preferred based on what I've seen so far. The top choices so far would make good patches on a cap and would make nice t-shirt designs. The primary product we will sell is a simple embroidered cap. Ideally, there is a standalone and creative fish icon as part of the design that would stand alone embroidered. Some inspiration can be found here:
