Are there any in the pipeline - I remember someone was going to get some made up but haven't heard anymore. Would certainly look good in the back window

We did manage to get some bmw-board stickers but then when we were reported to BMW AG by someone we had to stop using these.
I'll look into it and come back in the next day or so.

Tip: Who ever is doing them remember to flip/reverse the design so it can be stuck to the inside of the car window..

SOMEONE always has to spoil it don't they. Why can't people just play with their toys instead of throwing them out of their pram.

I'd be interested in some environmentally friendly, re-cycled, CFC free, non ozone killing, ethical, non-offensive, non copying, non-upsetting car stickers if they don't get stopped by Gordon Brownpants in the process

So I take it the sticker would be transparent with just the white writing? simple yet effective AND no copyright spotters can complain!

Just white vinyl writing mike, no transparency.

There's a thought tho, dusted crystal vinyl stickers..

Gives the effect that the design has been etched into the glass, subtle but nice..although more expensive I think.

Stop thinking so much and get on with making them

...just a thought

KB can we host the 'www.bavarian-board.co.uk' sticker file somewhere, so everyone can access it, download it and get their own made at their local sign shop?

regional volunteers can also get some made for interested parties.

I could create it in different file formats for cutting at sign shops.

[edit] sorry no applemac files, only IBM PC compatibles [/edit]

Sure, but will people do that?
I would be on for making stickers but haven't the time so if any entepreneur feels like doing it (reasonably!) I will gladly host a paypal button for you.

OK, I happened to be speaking to a graphics firm today, so have sent them an example of the new design.

Font = HandelGothic BT.

Suggested size & colour as per the old design.

NOISUFNOC got in touch and has sourced stickers at a reasonable price.
Once final details regarding costs, etc. are decided I'll come back to you all.

Just a thought Killian........

I notice you have some empty advertising space so........

How about offering the 'sticker maker' some cheap ad space in return for some cheap stickers. Surely you'd make more from selling the stickers than you'd lose from the 'cheap' ad space?
