Image for hats and shirts
« on: February 23, 2008, 07:42:39 PM »
Melena was kind enough to e-mail me a few of the "patch" files that she had and I picked them apart and put something together that I might get put on the left side of some T-shirts or on some hats.  Not too sure how this kind of detail will translate on this size but I'll submit it for evaluation.  What do y'all think?

Hell, that looks pretty damn good right there, Justin.  I'd buy a T-shirt with that on it!  (It'd go quite nicely with my new R65 hat!)  ;D

Very nicely done.  I think it would be appropriate for a t-shirt, but perhaps too much detail for a hat.  Maybe just one bike for the hat version.

Yeah Justin,  Looks great!  
I'll take one too, but I really think John will look spiffy in one with his new Buell Neck Gaiter...   ;D

I'd like a shirt with that logo [T or polo]. Could we move the LS silhouette to the front tho, just kidding.

I suppose we can stick a fork in this one as due to the complexity of the design there would bwe an additional $50 setup fee and the actual stiching would be about $4/each more than just the r65.

Oh well, I kinda liked it.  Maybe I'll drop the motorcycle images and just go with the BMW logo, r65, and url - see if that sneaks through...

I sense an art contest here! isn't there a page somewhere that has all the proposed patch designs? I seem to remember hitting it a long time ago. Best design / setup cost would win. ladies and gentlemen start your Photoshop!

That contest was almost unmanageable...   I whacked the motorcycles out and I'll see if this comes in at the simple level, and we can make the r65 in bike color or something to make it unique...

How about an advertising twist on a now defunct US automaker, Oldsmobile.

Their last big ad campaign was : 'This is not your fathers Oldsmobile' , trying to lure a younger buyer to a traditionally older buyer clientiele.

They were so desperate in the last two years before they went out of business, that they had Ringo Starr as their main front man in their commercials !!

Didn't help their image there !!


'R65 it is your fathers BMW'
     ( Stay off of it !!!)
