Jaydub,

I like this idea of yours more and more - even though you called me Steve! Ha!

We could do this in the vinyl graphics material, or maybe a magnetized material...

jaydubya 06-28-2007 08:24 AM

Vinyl would be my preference. I've had bad luck with long-term use of magnetic numbers...

Cheers,

Jeff

Also, for everyone, I am getting some of the final designs back from the badge maker. It iwll come down to 2 probably, and once decided, i think he said it would take about 3 weeks.

I'm up for whatever...I'm just proud to BE SCWDP...muhhahahahaa........first stickers..then the world...:)

Badges
 
Got the badge work down to the nitty gritty. They have three designs submitted that they are massaging. Once they are done, they will shoot me back the artwork for final approval. This one is probably what will end up final product...

Here is the deal on badges. I have to have a minimum order of 40 to get them done. So I will initially just do one design. The stickers will be a different story, and I will have a bigger variety for you to choose from. Still have not heard orm my printer, so hopefully that will happen today.

Finally, what does everyone think about using the german translation for "world domination plot" - "weltherrschafthandlog"?
I thought the idea was kind of cool, but some have brought up that it kind of looks like "waltersshafthandling". We certainly do NOT want to give the "others" fodder for their cannons!:D

I like the English version myself.
Put me down for one please.

cashflyer 06-29-2007 04:49 AM

As badges, I like this style. I have not quite made up my mind which of the two I like best, though - probably the English one with the date. The German word just doesn't match up to the WDP lettering. And there's that thing about Walter.....

Any chance they are pin-back with proper spacing to substitute them for the Porsche crest on the hood? :)

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.... now that is an excellent idea as well... Can you provide me with the exact measurements? I am almost sure we could get the posts wherever they need to be, but the only issue will be if they can do that without having to order another set of 40. Well, here's this: we could get the badge to wear two hats: I can ask the manufacturer to make the mounting studs the right size to fit in the alotted mounting holes for those that want to put it up front. But, the same mounting studs will be long enough to properly secure it to the grille as well. Those mounting on the hood in place of the crest would just have to cut off the mounting studs a bit in length. Great suggestion Cash! I just need the exact dimensions to give to the guy. Can someone provide so I do not have to take mine off to measure?

Kroggers 06-29-2007 05:01 AM

This is all good - count me in....

If nobody gets to it sooner, I'll measure mine after work today.

v8,
I vote for the Super Carrera. That way, I probably won't be asked again "What's the SC stand for? Super Charged?"
You could probably drop the date too, IM $.02 O.

SCWDP911 06-29-2007 05:17 AM

OK guys, please vote at this poll...

Mark, I understand the date thing. I have been on the fence with it myself, but for me it came down to this: possibilty of annual badges. I think a new design each year might be enough, but I lean towards the date, kind of like the Old Navy thing...

wilke3169 06-29-2007 06:05 AM

I just voted on the poll. I noticed after that it is a virtual tie early in the voting. Just my opinion but I like them both. They are both well done and a great add for anyone involved in the plot.

Thanks a ton for your efforts,
Kevin

V8, Thanks in advance, can't wait to see final project. Put me on the list.

SCWDP Badge Poll Part 2 - Added another choice due to input from crowd!
 
[B]I asked Noah to delete the first poll. Please revote. Thanks

OK, gang. Time to be brave and nail down the Super Carrera thing! Seriously, forgetting about the seemingly dark mysteries of the true meaning of SC (perhaps Geraldo can uncover it someday like he did with Al Capone's thing), I need to get a vote here on whether we go with "Porsche 911SC" or "Super Carrera" on the top of the ring on the badge design. Like these:

My personal vote is Porsche 911 Super Carrera, and here is why... We have "World Domination Plot" spelled out below because that is for the WDP, so it seems to flow better for me that SC is also spelled out. I'll leave it to minds more brilliant to continue the debate on whether Super Carrera is accurate or not. I just like it regardless. And that is kind of the crux of this whole deal anyway, isn't it... That's just my opinion, but keep in mind it was free, and might be worth what you paid!

cashflyer 06-29-2007 09:21 AM

Although I already voted for SC, your logic for spelling it out seems reasonable.

I realize that I'm jumping in pretty late but I'm down with sticker, shirts and possibly a banner if they're available.
