Any chance of a decal, this would be the 1st tsx site to do it if it gets done

[bheywow]

How about a decal to promote the site, god knows the other sites will never get their act together enough to put one together, I figure between Joker and Larchmont and the effort they seem to put in (along with the other mods) that this would be simple to orchestrate.

Maybe even a rip on the other sites on the decal would be cool as well.:confused:

[larchmont]

Yes, and maybe T-shirts or polo shirts too.

I'd be all for it, although I wouldn't be the one to be technically involved in it.

Bullfrog brought this up a few weeks ago, although I think he might have been half-kidding:

Now that we have a great top/header on the site (thanks to TSX 'R' Us) ......

......it might be not that hard to come up with designs for stickers/decals and for shirts. If TSX 'R' Us isn't burned out from the other design work, he'd be the best person to come up with designs, although there would be other issues besides design. My two cents worth of an idea: The stickers/decals could even be just the 2 lines of red text from that top (it's very striking and very attractive all by itself), or maybe with the image of that car above or below it. And the same thing (with or without the car) would work on shirts too -- either a large design going all the way across, or a small design on the left side.

Question: Why has it been so hard to get these kind of things going on the other sites? On the "original" site, stickers were talked about and there was a lot of interest, but nothing happened. And the T-shirt issue was the direct cause of the site's demise. And on "the other" site, these things keep being promised but nothing happens. Yes indeed, it would be oddly impressive if we did it. I say oddly, because I don't understand what's the big deal although I realize there are issues.

I can get the stickers done. We did them for another site, and they came out great!
We went with a simple text, in die cut white.
I'd be more then happy to get them done. Not to mention, it is a great way to promote the site ;)
Edit - I'll make the call today, and have a sample made. :)

[bheywow]

Awesome!

I also like the sticker idea, but dont have any good contacts for them. Let us know Joker.

[larchmont]

Thanks Joker -- great!

Would it be possible to get the kind (maybe in addition to the regular kind) that are....don't know exactly what they're called....like, just "contact" or removable, rather than permanently stuck?

What do people think about this? Or would you just as soon get the "permanent" kind?

[bheywow]

the removable kind would be best. IMHO

[Joker]

Ok, I placed an order for a dozen.. Which I will pay for. I'll send them out to all of the mods, and of coarse bheywow to get feedback.
My connection has agree'd to give them to me at a much cheaper rate, which I will pass on to the members who order them.
In the mean time, I'll try to get a pic of the other stickers (they are on Catherine's car) so everyone can get an idea of what they will look like.
Also, if TRU, or anyone else wants to draw up some art work, I also have connection's to get tee shirt's made ;) Those would cost a bit though, as with shirts, the set up (at the screener) must be paid up front. So in that case, the more you order, the cheaper it is. This is the reason why not many boards have tee's, as a small run can be pretty expensive.

Great job, Joker.

I can't wait to see them. 1blue1.gif

Hummmm.. I was thinking something along the lines of a TSX, and the words TSXClub.com :p
Joker - who would love to see what ever you come up with ;)

[bheywow]

anything ever come from this?

Well I have them ready to go... But have been a little discouraged. I posted a thread in the mod forum, and it went several pages, and ended with Larch saying, "I'm not going to put it on my car anyway". :(
If you'd like, I'd be more then happy to make you a pair, and anyone else for that matter.
I just need to know who wants them, and how many to have made.

[larchmont]

Oh noooooooooooo!

Sorry, Joker!!!.....We were just brainstorming at the time, talking about what kind of design it should be, and I had some different ideas about it. And anyway, didn't I wind up saying it was good?

Besides, a good rule of thumb: I'm never a barometer of anything. I might sometimes have good ideas about things, but I'm not a good personal indicator of anything in the real world. :mecry:

And I would put them on my car.

Now your talking Larch :D

I wonder what website that was? ;)

Yeah, decals are a must!

We didn't do the EP3 one's JP, we did the H-T ones ;)

[bheywow]

?

[larchmont]

Right -- I guess these things are harder than meets the eye!
That's how it's been on every site yet, right?

Actually I'd be much more interested in T-shirts or polo shirts.
And maybe that's part of the problem -- every time something like this gets raised, people express all kinds of opinions about how they want it to be, and what they'd "rather" have.
