Why not… if it’s the logo. I can’t think of a motor industry related logo that contains a specific model of car in it, but if it did, I’m sure when they sponsorred race teams the logo would contain the original image, regardless of car models.

Then again we’re not being sponsorred, so it’s each man for himself in the shark infested waters. I’m butting out. I have no need for a flame war, inscite riot, or get into an argument.

We’ve got a wax printer, but I’m not sure of the sorts of heat involved in the printing.

Two words. Logo recognition.

The same reason there’s always a kangaroo on a qantas banner, the stupid T on the Telstra banner, etc. Even made into minuature format, it makes it look right.

I’ve been able to isolate the car from the original logo, but it’s very small, and only at 72 DPI. I’ve tried expanding and contracting it, but I’m not sure how well it will print at 600 dpi.

The mockup looks really good. Seems to be a little to open without the little red car though. Perhaps if the black bar for Sirze matters went all the way to the .com?

I think we need the little red car.

The mock up you’ve done looks good. I think it really needs the little car in it though. Looks empty with the gap betwen the Size matters and the .com. I’ll play around with the mock up I’m doing.

Very clever. I wonder if it would be possibke to make a mould of the people on the PCB cover and make more of them. That’d be cool. I’m sure they’d sell too.

My best mate’s working in Canberra at the moment, but I have his bit here (he left it here at Xmas).

The decal sheets I can get are for bubblejet. I know there are laserjet ones available, and they’d be my preference, but I can’t find them locally. There would be a shop in Melbourne or Sydney with them though surely (All those HO train buffs).

It’d be good to gte my hands on the new crisper logo, if only for conformity of product. With the size I’ll be doing though, I don’t think an uncrisp little car will be noticed. =o)

Available through…. (This is like a Goodies scene)

My bridge was only 50mm high, and cars pass under ok, so maybe yo ucould lover the overall height, making the angle more acute, and the hill easier to get over.

Yup. That all sounds familiar. Now you have the theory lads, go forth and duplicate those coils.

Obviously Shypos would have to have backward baseball hats, or broad rim hats with a feather, and a pink leisure suit, and perhaps some slinky blonde in a low cut top on the passenger side.

I was thinking as they don’t want to put forward the dough I would help out. Doing the decal sheets is all I could afford to do for them, then I’d mail them to A&D, and they can look after the sales, and keep the profit.

So, who’s interrested in Bit and MiniZ scale decals.

Kitty, can you send me the artwork files please? PM me f you can’t email me and I’ll give you the address.

More coils would equal more resistance I think, but that’s where my electronice knowledge runs out. I’m not sure if that would shorten the battery life or not. Anyway, by redoing your own coils you would no doubt end up with something different form the originals, either under or over.

I wonder what results more coils of a finer wire, or less coild of a thicker wire would produce. Play around Shypo and Scotty, and let us know.

The results of that should go in the technical area here and on QFM.
