Need some more idea's regarding the logo.

This so far is what will be on the michigan spotters card front.

Need some more Michigan like idea's for the card though. Something on that right side void.

Just a thought. Maybe we should throw in our state flag.

State flag would be cool. Could add the eagle that has a home on/near the bridge. Maybe a picture of the state, including the UP of course.

Oh hey, ya, i'll throw in a state picture. great idea.

Great job on the logo can't wait to see it. Are we going to have "T" shirts and such also?

You guys are pushing your luck right now. =)


I got the state added in. now i just have to decide if i want to do logo with color or without.

V2 will be up withen 10 mins. =)

Okay, I added the state seal instead of the flag and pushed things around a bit.

I dont know if I would use this design on a shirt, but its traunacateable to licence plates.

The initial idea is for spotters cards.
The back will have info about us, which I have not wrote up yet.

Somebody hunt me down a better picture for the bottom left corner.
Its so hard to image hunt on dial up.

Need a 2000+ ford TRUCK, preferably a SD or 350 with a bit more of an angle shot to show more side of the body, just to take up a bit more space.
That one just isn't eye apealing to me.

I have a 2000 f-350 in the driveway, you want a picture of it?...LOL i can get you any angle you want...

looks good! just my two cents, but i think a bolder, "sportier" (?) text would look nice. maybe without the state seal, since the outline and bridge are both on there (that's just the "less is more" mentality in me coming out)... then the text could be bigger.

are you going to put any info or the website URL on it?

I can pull the red ring off the state seal there. and just use it like that.

The text is easily modified. (thank you photoshop)

I stated the websight information will be on the reverse side of the card.

Once the spotters card is finished. i'll get us some printing prices. and whoever wants cards has to chip in. FTE will not pay for this stuff.
They offer printable spotters cards already.

I'm going to make a buisness card size and a 1/4 sheet of paper size.
I'd rather use the bigger ones.

My color laser printer was smashed thanks to an idiot guy, we wont go there, but i wanted to throw it in his car window.

I can probably finagle them out of the color laser i just found at the college. Will be fun.
I'll have to get in and get the card stock into the printer, then print them when he's not there and pick them up when i come into class.

He wont make copies from it, kinda funny IMO, i guess he doesn't know you can make 10k pluss copies on a developer

Laser you say why?
Because toner will not run like your home desk jet printer, so if it gets wet, they will still get the message.

Same thing with doing cards at the printers. Its tough to get decent DPI for cards at 3.5wide 2 inches tall. They will print them much better. And if people are serious about our group, they will pay, is what i figure. =)

Searching for a couple picture options, to replace the pic of the truck on the left. I will try to get them uploaded.

Toyman

just PM the link to the picture.

the logo does look good nice job. any Idea on window decals.

I vote we use one of our members truck, Like Capital Customs truck, He has a good looking truck. (And it is a diesel HA HA...http://images.ford-trucks.com/forums...cons/icon7.gif)

He tried that one on me already mark. :P

I gave him the "i dont think so tim" line. =)
hahaha.

That looks sweeet!

logo ops.
 

thanks for the vote Mark. that sounds good to me we can use yours for the other side pic.

I'm liking the 250.

that one will work but mine is better

I think mines the oldest truck...LOL But yet i'm the youngest guy.... 1968 F-100

If we used someones truck, that'd be pretty sweet also.

This one gets my Vote!

No but really I think that looks great! I would like to either the seal or the state outline go. I think one or the other but not both. I also think and OBS pic should take the old truck's place.

Edit: now that I think about it I think I do like both the seal and the outline on there together. Just different trucks pics.

stacks are to crappy on that one tim. we need one with better stacks.

Would it be possible to make the state seal more tranparent? It looks ok there in the corner, but kind of over powering.

I like the stacks Tim. I want them on my next truck.

Toyman

yes, there is alot going on... transparency would help if you're set on having all three michigan things on there.

Idea we could use our trucks and change the front of the card each year to display
all members trucks so everyone gets their picture on it over time.

Thats a great idea!!

Idea
 

we should vote on it then get William on board with it.
also what two trucks will be on it for the first year.

Well mine and yours of course!! LOL

Should be only posting members allowed. I think it should be a vote/poll to find out which trucks go on, then maybe shouldn't be allowed for the next round.

There are a lot of great looking truck in our chapter, this could be cool.

Toyman

Idea
 

great but will the others go for that.

I'll throw my truck into the mix...LOL...Now if I can only figure out how to download a picture of my truck

thats what I am trying to do. tried but can`t computer dummy here.

Me too...I ask my oldest daughter ALOT of computer questions

I posted a tread for help but no one has answered it yet.

The reason i'm not up for useing a members truck and just generic pictures is so that there is no fighting about who's truck is best, (because we all know its mine).

I'm just trying to show ford from then till now. Thats why i have the old tbucket truck.
Then i was trying to find a truck the represents a newer style of ford. Because we are enthusiasts about ALL trucks, not just our own, right?

I wish it would be easy to get all the members trucks in there, and a lot of other things, but we should save idea's like this for t-shirts and other items.
This image is NOT for tshirts, its for spotters cards and licence plates. Something to show who we are, and something we can easily hand out without any sort of predjudice.

When it comes to T-Shirts, if i can get all of us together in a good line up. We'll take a group photo with the trucks. =)

I like the group photo idea... "Because we are enthusiasts about ALL trucks, not just our own, right?" You should say all Ford Trucks... especially those with Ford powerplants...LOL

Good one john.

But dont make me smack you.

now William don`t make me pull my truck up to yours and blow out your windows
at our next meet. hey GR. area people got out the boats yet or are you doing the
back stroke. we are full of snow here.
