The characters are individual, but the stick-on procedure ensures proper alignment without much effort. * there are 2 tapes, first remove the backside * put the sticker on * and then carefully remove the tape on the other side * enjoy * show off :-) [http://www.dekaltrim.nu/monteringsanvisningar/montage%20framruta.htm instructions in Swedish] Things to '''consider during logo design for stickers''': * the sticker is cut by an automated knife, so small letters or complicated shapes are hard. Hard = $$. For some reason, our vector files have many points (400 points ! A bit too many for 4 letters, maybe it's the result of some conversion issue). * Single color is much cheaper than multiple colors, but getting same sticker in multiple colors is no extra cost * Size is appr. ''' 5" x 2" ''' ---- '''VEMS text on the PCB''' http://www.vems.hu/files/vems/vems_trans.gif [http://www.vems.hu/files/marketing/Sticker/ Vector files] I removed the spelling error "...managment ..." text from the logo, after converting pdf to postscript. The DXF was from line-segments instead of arcs, not really suitable. ''I don't like this logo, it looks great on the PCB but as a sticker the gap between the V and the E looks huge. MS as in megasquirt also stands out and we really want to avoid that for a lot of reasons. I would NOT put this sticker on my car and I think that it will be hard to get any high profile cars to feature the sticker when we are ready to compete with the big brands. -Jörgen'' ---- '''Color selection''' We heard opinions that the diffuse materials are more exclusive than the shiny counterparts. On the shiny surface, you can see some reflection of a direct light-source. The '''colors look much nicer in reality than on the scanned image.''' * [http://www.vems.hu/files/marketing/Sticker/color_samples/sticker_colors_1.jpg selection sheet 1] first 3 columns are shiny colors, the last column is diffuse. * [http://www.vems.hu/files/marketing/Sticker/color_samples/sticker_colors_2.jpg selection sheet 2] all these colors are diffuse. '''In the new batch, metallic is only 30% more expensive than regular colors.''' '''Votes''' ? * 8969-00 300x Silver is already ordered (metallic color: between shiny and diffuse) * 8929-00 300x Shiny-white is already ordered * ... Old run: * red 30% RGB=F00 * black 20% RGB=000 * white 30% RGB=FFF * green 5% ('''0% in next run''') RGB=0F0 * yellow 5% ('''0% in next run''') RGB=FF0 (needed? looks good on red car) * aqua 3% ('''0% in next run''') RGB=? * ''silver'' 20% (good on most backgrounds, very popular) * ''gold'' '''0% in next run''' Who designed this logo? Is it possible to append ".hu" ? It's OK if font is not exactly the same, or if the appended ".hu" is slightly smaller. ---- Designs from MembersPage/JörgenKarlsson: Not very ground breaking but I still like it better then the current logo: http://www.vems.hu/files/JorgenKarlsson/VEMS_jorgen7.png ---- Designs from MembersPage/ChrisGerhardt Jörgen: I like this one. It also transer very well to CNC. Looks good in black/black too: http://www.vems.hu/files/ChrisGerhardt/VEMSlogo.jpg I really dont care one way or another, but I think that the the url and acronym spelled out is essential until VEMS is widely recognized. * I'd love it if they were available with just the logo, and not the text and URL. I understand the reason why they are there, but I think it looks more 'professional' without it. I changed the logo to have no text and resized it down a little bit: http://www.vems.hu/files/ChrisGerhardt/VEMSlogosmallnotext.jpg http://www.vems.hu/files/ChrisGerhardt/VEMSlogorednotext.jpg Jörgen: Thisone sucks, It will also need much more machine time if used for CNC: I think it's OK (with thick white lines and appropriate rounding, but I like the logo better that is onboard v3.1) Another idea that GRMracer suggested and I drew up: http://www.vems.hu/files/ChrisGerhardt/VEMSlogoGRMidea.jpg That bald V makes me think of Valvoline.... -Johan ---- Designs from MembersPage/JohanEriksson: CNC friendly logos: http://www.vems.hu/files/MembersPage/JohanEriksson/VEMSCNC4.png http://www.vems.hu/files/MembersPage/JohanEriksson/CNCLogo.png : [http://www.vems.hu/files/MembersPage/JohanEriksson/VEMS.png Same as above except another font] : 3 different versions + "Powered by !GenBoard" text: : [http://www.vems.hu/files/MembersPage/JohanEriksson/Logo2.png Red Glow] : [http://www.vems.hu/files/MembersPage/JohanEriksson/logo.png Multi coulor] : [http://www.vems.hu/files/MembersPage/JohanEriksson/LogoBW.png Black/White] : [http://www.vems.hu/files/MembersPage/JohanEriksson/logga.png Another font] : ''Created with AAA Logo'' A VEMS TTF Font: http://www.vems.hu/files/MembersPage/JohanEriksson/VEMSfont.gif Modified a existing font, don't know about copyrights.. ---- Designs from MembersPage/IanGilmore http://www.vems.hu/files/marketing/Sticker/genboard_logo.jpg comments? * I think URL should be on it * I like it.....kindof Catchy. I think it needes URL at least ~Chris * even though everyone liked the design, common opinion seems to be that "we need something that promotes VEMS". http://www.vems.hu/files/MembersPage/IanGilmore/vems%20dots%20logo.jpg More unique, the greyscale dots would be all same color in sticker. Can't sleep, so here's another http://www.vems.hu/files/MembersPage/IanGilmore/vems%20arrows%20logo.jpg the logo is to represent the open-source nature of vems, lots of individuals adding to a common project nice :) - richb ----- Designs from MembersPage/SirKan Please watch theese and vote what's your favourite! The colours could be change easily. And the size could be changed too, theese were made vectors graphics. And theese sample pictures are JPEG-s, so the quality is much worse than the original logo-s. Any suggestions welcome!Here are examles: http://www.vems.hu/files/Fero/logo/VEMSlogo_sirk_001.jpg http://www.vems.hu/files/Fero/logo/VEMSlogo_sirk_003.jpg http://www.vems.hu/files/Fero/logo/VEMSlogo_sirk_004.jpg http://www.vems.hu/files/Fero/logo/VEMSlogo_sirk_012.jpg And here is the complete list: *[http://www.vems.hu/files/Fero/logo/VEMSlogo_sirk_001.jpg logo01] *[http://www.vems.hu/files/Fero/logo/VEMSlogo_sirk_002.jpg logo02] *[http://www.vems.hu/files/Fero/logo/VEMSlogo_sirk_003.jpg logo03] *[http://www.vems.hu/files/Fero/logo/VEMSlogo_sirk_004.jpg logo04] *[http://www.vems.hu/files/Fero/logo/VEMSlogo_sirk_005.jpg logo05] *[http://www.vems.hu/files/Fero/logo/VEMSlogo_sirk_006.jpg logo06] *[http://www.vems.hu/files/Fero/logo/VEMSlogo_sirk_007.jpg logo07] *[http://www.vems.hu/files/Fero/logo/VEMSlogo_sirk_008.jpg logo08] *[http://www.vems.hu/files/Fero/logo/VEMSlogo_sirk_009.jpg logo09] *[http://www.vems.hu/files/Fero/logo/VEMSlogo_sirk_010.jpg logo10] *[http://www.vems.hu/files/Fero/logo/VEMSlogo_sirk_011.jpg logo11] *[http://www.vems.hu/files/Fero/logo/VEMSlogo_sirk_012.jpg logo12] *[http://www.vems.hu/files/Fero/logo/VEMSlogo_sirk_013.jpg logo13] - This is a new version, this is my favourite now-Fero Some of them has a bit low clearances (between border and letters) for easy recognition. My favorite is 12. /Marcell ---- Here are some options for the new VEMS sticker Marcell has requested. http://www.headcasestudios.com/images/vems_speed_logo.jpg An obvious rip of various auto manufacturer's speed logos (BMW M badge, Audi S & RS badges) but it looks FAST... Is it possible to put a bit of salt on it? maybe a curl that makes it unique... ---- Here is the pic of stickers printed on solvent printer: http://www.inet.hr/~artst/msavr/logo/vemslogoSmall.jpg It looks a bit better on pic than live... [http://www.inet.hr/~artst/msavr/logo/vemsLogoBIG.jpg Here] you can see bigger pic. Of course it is water resistant that print is used for truck trailers, and buses and has 3 year waranty in normal weather conditions (including rain :-))-Tonci ---- '''See also''' * GenBoard/Marketing Optional: Add document to category: Wiki formatting: * is Bullet list ** Bullet list subentry ...
