Vinyl stickers science :-)

Since the stickers are cut, there is no background. 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 :-)

[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 = $$
Single color is much cheaper than multiple colors, but getting same sticker in multiple colors is no extra cost
Pick any colors and tell me how many of each color - Ian (the manufacturer)
- Metallics' material cost is 10x the price of regular colors, but can be done.
- Other than that, the color list on the wiki (this page) looks good.

VEMS text on the PCB

[Vector files]

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. -JÃƒÂ¶rgen

175 regular stickers are the same price as 35 metallic

We decided on

350 regular + 35 metallic (and pay/barter a bit more)

Size is appr. 5" x 2" .

red 30% RGB=F00
black 20% RGB=000
aqua 10% RGB=?
white 10% RGB=FFF
green 10% RGB=0F0
yellow 6% RGB=FF0 (needed? looks good on red car)
silver 8% (good on most backgrounds)
gold 6%

Please share your opinion.

I think the initial proposal is great. -Jason

Not very ground breaking but I still like it better then the current logo:

JÃƒÂ¶rgen: I like this one. It also transer very well to CNC. Looks good in black/black too:

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. The board design could easily be changed to have this. What ever is decided I can get stickers made of various sizes for ~$6 each and maybe cheaper if enough people are interested. If you are interested in stickers put your name and the number you want here: StickersIamInterested

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:

JÃƒÂ¶rgen: 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:

That bald V makes me think of Valvoline.... -Johan

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".

More unique, the greyscale dots would be all same color in sticker.

Can't sleep, so here's another

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

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:

And here is the complete list:

[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.

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:

It looks a bit better on pic than live... [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
