I thought there was a thread about this, but upon a forum search I noticed there wasn't.
Gaging interest on some vinyl decals for us... Not sure of pricing or sizes yet, but I think the best bet for the stickers would be OffRoadMowers.com instead of atlma.us since OffRoadMowers.com is more self-explanatory??

Yes that would be good to have some decals made maybe some sizes to think about would be a 8x4 or maybe smaller? www.offroadmowers.com would be a great thing to put on there. Heres a quote from www.eDecals.com1x12 $9 each 1 1/4x15 $10 each 1 1/2x18 $11 ech 2x22 $12 each And so on.............. http://customvinyldecals.com/Racings.htmThe link above are totally better prices. You can get them in any color and with any text for about $5 each.       |

Sticks would be great, not only for promotion on the mowers, but promotion on vehicles of all sorts. (I know i would but one on my Truck) Along with shirts it may/will help us get some attention.
As for sticks, i would think just a small text sticker would be nice for decals on mowers and windows or cars/trucks and then a bumper sticker with OffRoadMowers.com in large text and a background of a picture of El Toro (and/or other members mowers as some get built).

What we could do, if we want custom backgrounds we submit a photo of the mower we want in the background and the offroadmowers.com gets put on it.

Well I just checked some websites out. For standard square 3x2 or 2x2 decals with a custom background and text you can only buy in a quantity of 30 minimum will be about $150

Well I guess they value there decals quite abit.  Posted on: August 02, 2007, 11:23:07 AM
Okay those were "DECALS" Now I am looking at "STICKERS" would you guiys want 4 color stickers or black or white or 1&2 colors. Posted on: August 02, 2007, 11:28:21 AM
Okay bumper stickers- read the info on this page. http://www.sticker.com/bumper-stickers.htmlBy what it says your are looking about $41 for 125 stickers BLACK&WHITE. We may be better with the decals listed above but it is up to you guys to decide. |

...Small? So nothing excessive like this?  That decal only cost me $10, and if you saw the detail in it, well.. it's just amazing they got that font to look so good. I think copying the website's watermark would look pretty cool, just getting the colors correct would be a PITA (attached the watermark to this post)... |

I like that Chris where did you get that decal on your car? Now I think we can order decals for the rear fenders or hoods on the mowers. But it you guys preferences. Personally I would go with waht you guys want. But Chris did you think about the trouble of a sticker that big? everyone would have to have a one diffrwent from the other in length ect.....

I have a banner on the front that looks even better than that one.   I think we'd do a few different preset sizes and then could do larger on special order. after we get a few select sizes I'll price out what the guy I deal with has (he can do multi-color vinyl, textures and even reflective!!!) and from the links above and we can put in a bulk order. |

I'd say small ones will make more sense to most of us, especially since many of us (like chris) already have big ones.

Alright, who wants what?
If I get enough interest, I'll order a bunch.
Tell me the size, font, color, etc.... There IS reflective also. I'll do some quick PS examples and throw the pics up here.

I'm in, pretty open on size, would rather its not tooo big (like no more than 18" long) I'd take at least 2 up to 4 depending on price
might be nice if you could do them on transparent or as cut outs so they match paint well(more like a decal, less like a bumper sticker).. but I don't know whats available to you.

That's on the outside of the glass, been there for almost 3 years now. Made from the same guy that's going to be making our decals. I'll have to pull the fonts off my PC at home (at work, no internet at home) so I can post up some examples here |
