6GC.NET stickers?, Are they in the works or thought process Options

[Celica95]

Just wonder if Coomer has thought about making stickers. If there has already been a topic of discussion on this I apologize. Ive just gotten back to where I read and post regularly.

Ive had celica.net stickers for a long time, I took them off tho, too big for my taste. Ive been a member of Celica.net for close to 2 years. I just dont post on any forums much like I used too. Too busy trying to get my degree.

Very true, I still dont post over there much anymore. I like the electrical/audio forum over there tho, those guys are very knowledgable about that stuff. But over all I dont care for the forums, 7th gen owners over there think they rule the freakin world.

True, they definitely do think that..someone should tell them their car looks like it ran into a brick wall at 50 MPH...anyway..

PimpCat is the greatest..he helped me out so much..the Audio forum is really good over there..only better than here cuz there are tons of members...

[rlan214]

also their forced induction forum kicks a$$

[Guest_Matthew_*]

7th gens suck they look like the new hyudia tiburons.

WERD!

[TRDracerGT]

Well if someone comes up with a design i can go by local shop and see how much they would cost and give you an esimate.

[neophile]

Back in december there was a big discussion about creating a sticker, and a lot of good ideas were posted. Unfortunately no one design was decided on.

Being a proud member of this site, I thought I'd take matters into my own hands, create a sticker based on my favourite posted design - then if an official sticker was made, I could replace my homemade one with it.

To make a short story long and boring, I spent many hours in photoshop etc trying to recreate the design and still couldn't get it exactly right, so following Homer Simpson's advice, I gave up because it was too hard and decided to adjust to original design to suit my poor design skills.

Before you get to the designs I recreated, I want to state that these are based on one of gh0st_d0g's designs and as such all credit belongs to him. If anyone is offended by these or gh0st_d0g is not happy with them please let me know and I'll remove them, delete them and never mention them again. Once again: gh0st_d0g created the orignal design, I simply copied, coloured and slightly adjusted them a little. gh0st_d0g=talented, Me=too much time on hands.

Here is the forum link where the orignal designs first appeared:

http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?act=ST...&f=3&t=79&st=20

Alrighty, if you're still reading you're probably thinking (just post the d*mn pics already ) so here they are. The first one shows how it would look on a black background, the second one is a transparent gif, so people can save it and paste it onto different coloured backgrounds to see how it would look.

Any suggestions, modifications, hate mail all greatfully accepted If anyone wants the original photoshop file so that they can adjust the pics themselves - I'll happily send it.

Anyway, enough talk:

I really like the design but when u have a 2 tone color scheme it will clash with some peoples cars. Maybe we could make them in all silver and white.. Just a suggestion but neophile good work and cant wait to see the final design!

[neophile]

Hey, thanks for the suggestion - that's a very good point . Having a white 6gc it hadn't occured to me since most colours go with it (probably the only benefit of white paint ), but you're right - it could easily clash with other colours.

I really like the idea of a silver and white colour scheme, I'll have a play and see what I can come up with.

[Neipas09]

I think a pure silver sticker would look best since silver seems to go with anything.

[95STCelica]

yeah just silver and just white goes best IMHO...i have the silver celica.net sticker on right now and it looks so good...id love to swap it for a 6gc.net sticker tho

silver and white match with everything

[Silver94CelicaOw...]

A friend of mine does vinyl graphics and all kinds of commercial logo stuff.....he made this sweet window logo for his company about 5" by 2" that was made from this metallic looking stuff, it looked really awesome, but i might be able to have a few 6gc stickers made from a design that doggy put on a previous post about making a sticker......i think his would look best in this material. I'll see what my friend mike says about making some for us, maybe i could get a few made up as an example

[95STCelica]

Do it !!!

[snadman]

Hell, I wish my Dad wouldn't have gotten canned from his old job. They had a huge vinyl cutting machine setup and he made stripes for my car at one time, as well as some other decals I have eventually taken off. That was awesome, and free. Grrrr!

[hostile43]

the thing with the sticker you guy are making, looks like you're trying to copy celica.net. we should try a different look.

[Neipas09]

If you try to make the sticker too WOW then it's gonna cost hella $$$ to produce.

[x_itchy_b_x]

my dad does vinyl.... hes got this wicked cool vinyl, it looks exactly like etched glass. a slivery white... but it looks like it is in the glass. ill see if i can get a pic when i get put of school.

[95STCelica]

so no stickers...

[snadman]

I'm trying to finda place that will do more of a plain type decal temporarily for relatively cheap. I think there's a place that will do it for me for a good price.

[capncrakhed]

you know what...this topic has been on here for way too long...my best friend's dad owns a trophy store...and he can get a guy to do vinyl for pretty cheap...

i like a design that doggy made a while ago.....i think i saved it somewhere...i can get it

anyways..i can find out from him, see if you guys like the same design that I like...charge maybe $6...$1 for s/h

something like that.....whattay guys think?

[Neipas09]

Before anything goes into production we need to have a serious vote on at least 3-4 different designs and colors and the winner gets made and no special orders that way it's easier to get made and sent out.

[doGGy]

Ok, i just found my old ideas of a 6gc sticker, so check them out again i tell me what you think:

[bojangles_8686]

Hey I dont have an idea for a sticker or anything but when you guys finally make a decision and start making some vinyl 6gc decals let me know because I am definitley interested!

[Silver94CelicaOw...]

Hey doGGy, you had another idea that was perfect IMO(kinda square lettering with a boxy car outline behind it), i dont know if you have it anymore, but i have a photoshopped copy that i ruined. If you could post that one again, that would be great

[95STCelica]

you should just produce something simple in silver & white, goes best with everything

[doGGy]

Silver94CelicaOwner you were talking about this one?

[capncrakhed]

I just remembered....it wasn't one of doggy's designs...it was Ghost Dog's design....Ive got it saved on a disk...do you guys want to see it?

if we can choose one of the ones i have (ghost dog's design) than i can get a price quote for you probably by friday...

let me know

[XE_Nathaniel]

Hey doggy.....that 6GC pic of the "stickers" looks like a MKIII Supra instead of a 6G Celica LOL.

-Nate

P.S. Sticker?!??! gimme gimme gimme!

[boibleu22]

i know its bad quailty, but i like something more simple

This design kinda reminds me of Tokoyo Auto Salon Logo

Yeah!! Thats the one
I love the one in the bottom right......i think thats the image that we should use for a sticker, personally.

[FallenHero]

Why myst it be so artistic?

If you want something like that just make a APC window banner and replace it with 6GC. It's all to rice for me.

I would just prefer [6GC.NET] But hey, it's just me.

werd. i dont a big flashing thing. just like yeah [6gc.net]

[Silver94CelicaOw...]

I dont think theyre that flashy......besides, i dont think that something artisticly pleasing constitutes as being rice.... I dunno, my brother is an art major, so i prefer something with better looks than plain lettering. Anybody could do that.

[ghostdog]

here are my designs from before:



they are a bit much IMHO, I agree with the plain text... as long as its a cool font. I got something in mind, I'll post it up later today.

I like the 1st one out of all those, very nice!
I think that it would look sweet if the 6 was used as the needle on a RPM gauge or something like that.

[doGGy]

Some ideas that i made. Check them out, and tell me what you think.

[The_Argon]

That second one looks really good doGGy!! Probably should change it so it says 'resource' though

Here are some of my ideas, maybe someone else a bit more artistic or creative can do something with them...

[doGGy]

Changed, thanks for the corection.... English is not my main language, so i am not very good at it

[95STCelica]

so is there any one that would be able to actually make these??

[The_Argon]

The easiest way to make them would be to get someone with a viynl cutter (signwriter) to cut them, and apply them yourself.

That way you can choose the colour you want, if you want the etched style vinyl, etc.

It's also pretty cheap and you wouldn't need to make them in massive quantities, since they wouldn't be press printed.

The only thing is it would have to be solid colours and the less colours the easier it is to put on.

I used to work for a company that did signwriting so I could probably have some done for the 6gc members over here.

[95STCelica]

let me know

[FallenHero]

I like ghost dog's second one. But something just isn't quite right. That's the only one I care for.

How about this.

[honey]

something very plain is good.. like the celica.net one. its not very big in width and its simple. so maybe if we had one that kinda looked like that..

[6GCELICA]

ok i have a dope design in my head i have to draw it out im suer most everyone will like it give me a few days and ill post it i also can have them made at a local shop that my buddy worx at...also i saw some one wrote they dont like the new celica because it looks like the tiburon..here is the reason for that...the guy that desingned the new celicas(not sure if he is responceable for the 6th gen?)was canned by toyota, hyundai quickly picked him up to design for them..out of spite he made the tiburon look as much like the celica as possible..so that is the reason for the look alike and also the reason i hate the tiburon(its a car of spite)!

[hioctane]

I'll let you guys know about the pricing on the decals, once I contact my friend. lemme know if you guys are interested . My friend owns a decal shop, so he can hook me. Just pick the design that you guys would like Vote for it.
