Title: What about a Club?
Post by: Auto Addict on 21 July 2006, 16:05:04
How about an Omega Owners Club, with a nice badge on your grill?

good to see you have found us Auto Addict!

Not too sure on the badge, maybe in small letters on the back windscreen, "omegaowners.com"

In quite small white letters, then if anyone is passing and like what they see....

Martin Imber has got a set of number plates with the website name on coming

Not that I am suggesting everyone does this.

Maybe tempted to do this myself.

Either way I am not fussed, I wouldn't mind a sticker.

I had a set of plates made locally for my Locost, got them to put my web address on. You can get them done where ever they make plates. Just tell them what you want on. (within reason of course) [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Biggest problem is this new stupid law - only hurts the legal, hence I started with showplates for the caravan

Badge, sticker, license plates.... it's all good and well, but shouldn’t we start with designing a logo for the club first?

Logo, hmmm, how about Ronald McBs' chiken     ;D ;D ;D

Sounds good that idea :) haven't seen anything like that before.

Sounds excellent. Any budding graphic designers out there?
Also, with regards to the web address at the bottom of the plates -  really like it. Subtle and effective. Surely though, someone must know somebody who could print the strip rather than having to replace the whole number plate, like car dealers do for their free advertising. I am looking forward to changing my plates but I'm sure there are some members out there who already have decent plates etc.

I needed a new plate anyway

Not a bad design, in fact, pretty good. Not sure about the colours though. :-/
Title: Re: What about a Club?
Post by: Salty on 22 July 2006, 20:22:06
That's the sort of thing I was thinking of. :)

Nice idea Omega letter with the griffin inside it.  :D

I know just the person to do the design properly.... ;)

Now, this sticker idea is clearly popular, so if we have any printers who do this, please PM me for a talk and I will take it from there.  :)

...Sorry to be a spoil-sport, but surely the Griffin is a Registered Trademark...? Shouldn’t we ask for permission from Mr. Vauxhall?

Yup....we might have a problem with that.

Yes worth enquiring, having said that other vauxhall related sites use the Griffon ;)
