Like it but can we put our names at the top to replace "I belong to" part?

I do think we should add our real names to! Example "Frank aka Dutch_Diver"

Good idea Eben

But the blue name in the middle is drowned out by the rest of the picture.

I would suggest removing the "I belong to" bit and moving the picture up with our name underneath it.
Maybe in jpeg so we can put our names in ourselves using Paint

tony
u lost me their a bit. i thought these were name tags like those silicon type that u either pin down thru your shirt. if so when a design is agreed on the business that would print this logo would alsoprint the individuals name on it. or am i missing something

Thomas used this today on his beetle, looked cool. I mistakenly deleted the pic I got of it tho.

Also Sarel had a sign made up saying he belongs to ACVWSA, that was wiked. I also explained to afew gents what the Acvwsa sticker on Liebs split was about, they were impressed.

Next big show we gotta have like a tent or something for the forum guys to meet and greet through out the day.

Some good ideas-

I just wrote "ACVWSA - Forcecooled" in the space that said "club" on the car boards that we were handed at the gate.

Maybe caps will be a good idea. And one of those teardrop? banners that can be put in a good place at the shows so that the guys can hang around there when they want to meet other forum members

Do you think caps will sell? Eben would there be any market for them overseas, perhaps as collectors items? Maybe we could buy the banner from the profit made on the sale of the caps

How many of us would be prepared to buy a cap?
We would have to have a really smart distinctive design

had a sample artwork done for the name tag from the printers. waiting for her to mail it to me then ill post it up.
to get a price i would need to know how many would be interested. each one would have his/her name on it.
to give u a rough idea
for 10 about R45 each
20 about R35 each and so forth
to get the best price a bulk order needs to be put in. she can only go as low as R25 which is a bargain. i bet she'll go for it if we get 50+ badges
