Hey BCMF

Ok here’s my order!!! I want a raised font for the tactile effect but done in a hologram style changing from my real name to my boards name depending on which angle it’s being viewed. I’d appreciate numerous samples in various colours so that I can choose the two I really want…… Oh!! And my picture in the centre of the Ireland flag that would be cooooool!!:rolleyes:

Only kidding I know it’s a personal thing and people are all different but might be an idea to chat with the printer and at least then we can see what they can do, or not do.

Cheers though for pulling it together, bet your sorry ye started?

Velo Bro!

Same here only an extra one in a gold effect with small diamonds in the lettering. And no more than 50c either (will you pay postage?)

bcmf

I am going to email PDF 2 to him and ask him to up a PDF proof for me.
1 as is and 1 in Italics.

Here's what trek offer on their custom bikes:


here's a suggestion from me:

Ryaner

Small and simple font would be best. Similar to http://cdn.mos.bikeradar.com/images/news/2008/04/15/Stuart_O%27Grady%27s_CSC_Cervelo_R3_PR_rear_end-850-65.jpg

bcmf,

I had indicated a pref for silver, but white will be good too (amended spreadsheet to reflect this) - also looking for some in black too, as detailed in spreadsheet - not overly worried about font - anything straight forward will be grand – thanks, appreciate you work

Kebel

bcmf

No problem kebel. I dont see silver being a problem. If we can agree on block style font we can pro get down to a small and neat size. getting anything fancy makes getting to a small size tricky.
The spreadsheet is essential as I will forward it onto the printer

Ryaner

Any movement on this?

bcmf

Sorry folks didn't get a chance to chase it up. Will chase it up first thing Mon

As Ryaner said we are using the speadsheet he set up.
Ballyharpet ; not too late. Didn't have a chance to chase the proof this week. So still no further on then this day last week

Hey bcmf Anything happening with this ? Great idea Thanks for putting the time and effort into it.

I saw there was no movement on this and forgot about it, but picked it up today and ordered from these guys because I saw a recommendation on a US board. They could be rubbish, who knows? but it was only $5.50 so no big loss.

For the win

*fret cut* Vinyl is a better job. You probably wont get your flags or fancy graphics. But its more suitable:

They are vinyl

If VCG is good enough for the likes of Columbia-Highroad, Slipstream Sports, TREK, etc they're definitly good enough for me. I've had one of their stickers on one of my bikes for two years at this stage with all that comes with it, wet rides, transport on the roof rack in all conditions, washes with muck off etc and never peeled off or faded.

Good stuff really - will be a LONG time before I wear though the rest of the pack of 10 that's for sure!!

Che How long does it take as I cant see it on the website

CheGuedara

How long to get to Ireland? - I'd guess maybe two weeks between ordering and them arriving in the post

Super Freak

Updated the SS. Could not get access to it last time.

If you mean the ones I linked to they look very well, the graphics & quality are exemplary - wouldn't hesitate recommending them

worth 27 dollars ????? seems a lot for a novelty sticker??

CheGuedara

Depending on what type you buy you get 6-10 and given that one has lasted me 2 years so far that means ASAOK you could get 12-20 years+ for your €20. I'm pretty cool with that.

Captain Havoc

VCG :cool:

RoubX

The eBay decals are vinyl too. They claim 5-7 years so I'll post again in 2015 to let you know how they're doing (if they turn up in the first place);)

I saw the ones with the flag, and went to the site, but I couldn't see an option to change the font. Did you guys get that option?
