Anything happening with this guys? I just don't have the time to play with it at the moment, and I think that I have got as far as I can with my limited resorces! :D

Yeah I'm looking at the chances of getting something done in vinyl, maybe like some sun strips or something.

Some of the pictures and avtars on this and other posts have disappeared, but not on all of the posts. At first I thought it was my photobucket, but this post's pics are on the forum's photo b account and others are on other people's. What happened? Is this happening to anybody else???

Yeah I had the same problem earlier on Fred, think maybe photobucket might have been down as it wouldn't let me view my album either.

I tried a quick one with the capital .org when I got home from work and it doesn't look right. Was thinking maybe some different colours.

i was thinking if people see it, the .org bit is important to get the right webaddress when they get home to look us up!! :D

I like it. I have only one concern, picture this. You are following a van in traffic, at a glance you see this sticker. Don't you think that in this instance it might look like a dealership sticker? Especially on a Mk2, cos of the font. I think this needs to be something eyecatching, involving a representation/picture of the vans themselves.
The less it looks like a dealer's sticker or Ford advert, the better. People won't take notice to a dealer's sticker, or Ford advert, they see them every day and they don't register (or is it just me?)?:wink:

I can understand where you're coming from Fred but to be honest any sticker that you put on to the back of your vehicle may be misconstrued as a dealears mark.

If anybody has any other ideas I am more than willing to try them, but what I do think the sticker above needs is a logo of some sort that we can call our own and is specific to FordTransit.org.

Any comments let me know.

I was always pleased with no4, maybe with a white background though. No 6 worked out well though, it has all of the vans.

I quite like no.6 but i think the font in no.2 (but in white) is best by far!!! :D

Does anyone not like the font in no.2 ?

I like no2, when it's on the computer screen at a reasonable distance and easy to read, and I also know what it says. I don't like it when I am imagining it on the back of a van, possibly a Mk2, some feet away in traffic, when it looks like a Ford dealer's sticker that could be ignored. At least no6 is obviously not a standard Ford badge, even at a distance it would still be possible to tell it has three words on it, and that makes you want to read it properly. That's the whole point of the excersise, to catch the eye. In a bumper sticker situation, you will only get one or two seconds before it's gone. It would be easy to ignor a 'dealers' sticker, you see tham every day.
