A static cling sticker on the inside of the window would be OK, but a sticker on the outside of the glass will look like crap quickly, especially after the ice scraper hits it a few times.
Besides, anything adhered to the outside of the car is a real pain when detailing (not that I do that as often as I should, but ...). So, I'd leave a static cling sticker inside the glass all the time (if printed on the right side), but anything with adhesive would go on magnetic backing. |

I'd recommend both a static cling smaller sticker and a normal exterior sticker.
I'd only consider a sticker that I could put on my fenders, preferrably about the size of the Evolution school stickers (3x6?) The autoxers can then put magnetic sheet behind it and others of us can stick it on the car. |

Yeah, I don't think many people would want Lonnie's thunderfrrax on the hood (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
Besides, I have to reserve the hood for my "primary" sponsor (if that ever becomes somebody besides me) (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Well how about 7x2" sticker with FRRAX.com and F-body RR & AX Forums below that. Then we could have a smaller sticker 3.5x0.75" that simply reads FRRAX.com.
Does that seem reasonable? The smaller sticker could also be a static cling? I don't think anyone wants a big static cling do they? I'm assuming most sign shops can make static clings. I'm thinking black, white, and silver for the big decal. For the small one we wouldn't want black since it will probably be going on glass. |

Rob that sounds fine.
At this point, I would get with your sign guy, and work out a price. Then work on the appropriate mark-up. You, your sign connection, and Chris should be able to come up with something that doesn't cost an arm and a leg, yet makes money for the board. |

I'll try and workout a price with a local shop this week. Any markup will cover postage and the rest will go to Chris to help run this board.

For the stickers, I use that electro-static plastic thing that garages use on a small square to show when the next oil-change is due.
Anyways, I got a big piece of it and I glue the stickers to that. When I get at the track, I just put that on the glass and it sticks... after the day, take it out and put it in the trunk... so it doesn't stick to nothing much but glass, I find it's great... I put it in the upper part of my windshield. |

That actually could be a great way to fund the board w/o having to do donations...at least people would get something in return for their contribution. |

Could something like this work?
(IMG:http://www.industrialtechware.com/image/frrax_decal.jpg) Just an idea. I've been bored to tears all day and needed something to do. |

That would work I like it. That would make colors simpler too. Tell you what make one big for the regular sticker and a smaller one like everyone else discussed (sizes were mentioned earlier) and I'll take them to the print shop tomorrow or wednesday.

Is silver a difficult color to print well, especially on a clinger?

Ok, here ya go. First one is 7"x2" and the second is 3.5"x0.75". Both are 144 pixels/inch. I can increase the resolution to whatever you want or go down to the standard 72 pixels/inch, but you'll lose a lot of detail going that route. Both are jpegs but I can output to any format you want. I also tweaked the silver color slightly.

I have a vinyl cutter, so I might be able to do something if none of the previously mentioned leads come through. If I have time, I'll also see if I can come up with another design to pick from...
