Decals for Motorbikes

#1 Post by Kwackerz » Sun Dec 17, 2006 4:56 pm

To Quote Gio from RS v3
Admittedly its not a bike manufacturers decals but our shops.

It deffo improved sales locally when the BB had them, now I'm getting them for the BM, but they've got to be a different style as 'Curlz' looks shite on a semi naked, mechano ugly bike.

So if you fancy a bit of a laugh and can design something then post it up (its got to useable on the following pic) please do.

There's a prize for the winner (I mean that a)

Now it has to have, company name, web address, email and telephone and fax.

So if anyone is good with Paintshop... :smt001

.... so a bit like those drivers of big red sportscars using them as substitutes for an inadequate anatomy ......

...... the "Just Relish Corporate Catering BMW" is a clear statement that this must be Gio's Lunchbox !!!!!! ...................

Well it might be, but only if it wasn't parked outside the shop 2 or 3 days a week, as well as at a few known places round here.

Just to give you some idea, when I had the advertising on the BB, in the 3 years it had it on our sales went up almost 15% per year, well worth having a mobile sandwich board I think :smt003

may seem a strange idea, but do you have a sign above the shop? or a boardetc?

if so images please - may as well see if there is a corporate logo thing that can be adapted :)

and Photoshop for the win btw

the front of the shop has decals on the windows with the name on, the font is Curlz, which IMO would look odd on the bike

This is a better pic as its on a dark background

The ones on the shop front aren't so easy to see but here is the best one

So you not too keen on using 'Curlz' on the BM? :smt005
Might look a little odd if the shop uses it as its identifying font?
I'll do one using Curlz, and maybe a couple with other fonts.
What about panel/box colours on the BM being changed?
Is there a main colour for/in the shop that will link the bike to it even if a different font is used?
You want naked ladies on there?
Course you do.
I can do naked ladies... :smt002
:smt003

EDIT; Just discovered that 'Curlz' is not a free font; Gotta pay £15 to download it!
Might not be able to do a version with that font unless someone knows where to get it for free?... :smt017
