"777" decals: Gauging interest

darren · 06-26-2007, 12:11 PM

As originally seen on the Sevenfest t-shirt thread, i designed a "777" emblem originally for the Sevenfest shirts, but the response has been strong, so i'm considering offering these as decals.

Initially, i'm thinking about making them in one size only, approximately 3" wide by 2.5" high, in a couple of different colours, most likely black, white and silver. Other materials i'm thinking about include 3M Scotchlite reflective silver (the stuff they use on road signs) and maybe even Scotchlite "stealth" which is sort of metallic charcoal black, but when you shine a light on it, it reflects back bright white.

Keep in mind that this thread is mainly just to gauge interest. I have not yet done any legwork in terms of finding a supplier, getting pricing, etc. An accurate price quote will depend largely on the volume i'm expecting to make. I don't want to make hundreds of these and be stuck with unsold inventory, but at the same time, i'd like to see everybody that wants one (or two... or a dozen) to get one.

Here's what they look like:

"Clean" version:

"Dirty" version:

So if you want to see these made, just chime in with:

which version you prefer (it's okay to like both)
how many decals you'd want
what color(s) you'd be interested in
how much you'd be willing to pay per decal

Please note that the above image is protected by international copyrights, and anyone caught infringing upon it will be flexed at in a court of law. Or sued into oblivion. Or both.

Hey bro, those pictures are both blank...

darren · 06-26-2007, 12:24 PM

They show up for me... maybe your browser doesn't support PNG images?

06-26-2007, 12:51 PM

I like the clean version

JPMDan · 06-26-2007, 12:51 PM

Clean or Dirty Version
3-8 decals pending price
Black, White, Scothlite "stealth", dimarzio green.
up to 10.00

B Lopez · 06-26-2007, 01:07 PM

Clean or Dirty

5 decals (probably more if they're less than $5)
Black/White
$7

metalfiend666 · 06-26-2007, 01:29 PM

I like both! I'd be interested in a couple, price isn't so much of an issue for me as the exchange rate's so good.

Chris · 06-26-2007, 07:36 PM

Both, either, $10.

*with a ss.org logo on the bottom.

Chris · 06-26-2007, 07:37 PM

I know a couple of great vinyl guys from when I used to run Club3G as well. (I was the admin there for 5 years).

Regor · 06-26-2007, 07:51 PM

I like the idea of the 'stealth' and the safety-tape once too. I'd prolly buy <5. Depending on price.

NegaTiveXero · 06-27-2007, 06:06 AM

I like the clean version, I'd probably get 3-4. The reflective and the stealth sound cool. I'd pay $5 for the regualr colorsor $10 for reflective or stealth, I guess.

yevetz · 06-27-2007, 10:03 AM

Guys sorry I cant understand all clearly..... can I order t-shirt with that logo?

darren · 06-27-2007, 10:24 AM

Do you see the word "t-shirt" anywhere in this thread?

yevetz · 06-27-2007, 11:49 AM

No but in previus thred you talk about t-shirt

http://www.sevenstring.org/forum/7-7...-t-shirts.html

darren · 06-27-2007, 11:57 AM

The previous thread is about Sevenfest. T-shirts are always available at the event. Kevan is the one to talk to if you want a shirt. I don't know if he'll be accepting orders from those not attending the event... he's got a lot of stuff to do before Jemfest/Sevenfest. I don't know how many will be made, but i'm sure if there are any left over after the event, they'll be for sale.

This thread is specifically about decals (stickers).

yevetz · 06-27-2007, 12:16 PM

How can I buy that sticker?

darren · 06-27-2007, 12:29 PM

If you go back and read the first post, you'll see that i'm just asking who might be interested right now. There are no stickers for sale just yet.

yevetz · 06-27-2007, 12:54 PM

Sorry man. Thanks for explain

I am in I want that stickers.

BTW you have good desing skills. Maybe you can help with calendar?

I like dirty version white color

eleven59 · 06-27-2007, 09:38 PM

I like either one, but the clean one slightly more. I like the idea of the stealth, or a metallic silver would be cool too.

Any chances of the full shield design from the "man-babies" thread becoming a decal? Because I like that best.

Either way, I'd definitely get at least 2 of these, up to maybe 5-10, depending on price and when the orders are taken (i.e. my financial situation at the time).

Emiliano · 06-28-2007, 04:41 AM

great! i think that i'm in too!

i deem Darren TR000000

the choice of colors are interesting
( scotchbrite FTW :P )
and both style are very good ( clean, dirty )
and i think that i will surely buy 2-3
more if the price is lowish

malufet · 07-09-2007, 06:58 PM

i'd buy at least 2 Reflectorive stickers. hmmm $5-$10 range.

Ryan · 07-09-2007, 07:59 PM

I'd jump on it with ss.org worked in somehow..

Shawn · 07-10-2007, 10:15 AM

Cool design and logo. I like both versions and i'd like to see sevenstring.org too.

Nice work, Darren.

noodles · 07-10-2007, 11:47 AM

I'll take either one.

darren · 07-12-2007, 11:23 AM

Here's another little addition... a sevenstring.org ambigram. (It can be read the same if flipped 180 degrees.)
