For a window sticker just invert the colors and everything will be white instead of black. Easy as brownies. I'll do that in a minute and post it so you can see.

I made some more minor modifications to the pic in post 74 so feel free to go back and check it out again for the couple of you that already saw it. Here is the image with the colors inverted so that Petey and others can get an idea of what the window sticker would look like.



Again, I'm open to comments, questions, and suggestions here.

I was thinking about 6-7" wide for side windows and a larger ( 10-12" ) version for the rear window.


Greg if you want to send it to me in an e-mail I will take and some prices.

Does anyone have any idea of how many we need to get?

I like it too

What issues arise from having the sticker available with white lettering for darken windows, and black lettering for lighter back grounds.

Also should it be sticky on the face for mounting behind the glass, or sticky on the reverse for mounting outside the glass or to a tailgate?

Is the image vector based, so it can be scaled to suit?

My Ford Oval is ~9" across by ~3.75" high and I could center the sticker around my oval.

I'm working on what I hope to be a final copy now with the curved text looking a little more crisp. The entire image it parted out so even if it doesn't scale well (I have not tried), I could just redo it with a larger or smaller font size.

Personally I am looking for a sticker to go on the outside of my rear window. I don't know about everybody else.

I can try putting something together for you Dave with those sizes in mind. I will leave the Ford logo out so that you can work around the existing one.

Outside. You wouldn't see it on most windows if it was on the inside.

The NRA sticker at the top of the windshield is behind the glass.

I suppose its a matter of how reflective the sticker is so as to be visible when behind the glass. Take for instance the state registration sticker and some town beach stickers are also mounted behind the glass. Then there are the AAA emblems which are cling-film for behind the glass.

Regardless, its a no-never-mind for my van.
