Aw. I spoze I’ll have a shirt if I have to. sigh.
I was looking forward to wearing long cargo shorts with my BCGs hidden in the pockets (like some quick draw cowboy) at work. 👿What else is a good item for logos but is cheap to producs and has high visibility. Need to spread the good word. AusMicro bibles? try and get one into every hotel room. hahahaa.

My track – http://community.webshots.com/album/58669595eliwuKExactly. You could carry two bits and controllers, or even 2 MiniZs, in a pair of Cargo shorts. Much more useful than a Tshirt.

My track – http://community.webshots.com/album/58669595eliwuKShorts. Cool. Are they going to be Cargos (for holding Bits in)?
If you could do at least one pair that come down past the knee for me please. Size 32 I think, cheers (I like my shorts long).

My track – http://community.webshots.com/album/58669595eliwuKI believe Derek has the little red car in the logo on disk somewhere, or at least did have (so Arron tells me. he’s such a dobber.). Is this true Derek? If so, can DGS and I have a copy please to try and recreate the logo at 600+ dpi, if you aren’t able to do so yourself.

My track – http://community.webshots.com/album/58669595eliwuKWell, we all seem to be saying ‘use the logo at the top of the page’, so there’s a start, that seems to be decided.
Now most of the rest of the talk seems to be on Stickers, decals, or Tshirts.
Thshirts – has been much discussion (Screen print or embroider, where the logo goes, what for the front, what for the back, etc.), but no decision seems finalised. I think if A&D see some quotes for these different options, and they can decide. Kitty, did you say that was your field of expertice, or knowledge? Are you able to give A&D quotes? I suppose for 100 Ts is a good starting place to get an idea of prices.
Stickers – Not much to discuss really, unless we want more on the sticker than just the logo. dgs should perhaps try and throw together a quote. Lets say for 100, 200, and 500 stickers, 1/6 A4 size, or the nearest size that’s cheapest to produce.
Decals – Aaron andor Derek (A&D) could simply purchase some blank decal sheets (few dollars a sheet) from a hobby shop, print them on their colour bubblejet, and cut them out. Upping the pixel resolution on the existing web logo will shrink it’s actual print size, so it’s just a matter of trial and error to find the right dpi for Mz and BCG scaled decals. If you guys want (A&D) I’ll have a play and get a rough idea of what res is best for BCGs (I don’t have a Mz)
That’s a wrap up of the more popular ideas in this discussion so far, and just my suggestions how this could start to come into fruition. A&D will need to see prices before they will make a decision, so that seems to be the next step to take.
Does that sound reasonable to you Aaron or Derek?

My track – http://community.webshots.com/album/58669595eliwuKOh man. Some companies will try to sell anything. The Hipsters set is my fave there, and hey man, a big pink pimp.
Figurines would be less of a publicly visible advert for the site.
????????????????????????
DaveF! 👿
My track – http://community.webshots.com/album/58669595eliwuKSo they’re sold in twin sets. I don’t like that option. I’m paying for a clear shell I’ll never use. I just want the already coloured shell when I buy a shell.

Pity that in the Member Search, the State option doesn’t seem to work (doesn’t affect results).

Nah. I on;y gave the vids to AusMicro. I have a version of the one you put together of us both racing that has the AusMicro logo as a barrier in a drive by shot, but as the footage is all the same as yours (mostly), just with a different edit, I didn’t submit it.
That’s not to say people who have downloaded it haven’t then emailled it to 10 of their friends.
Nice thinking about the booklet. That’d be handy!

My track – http://community.webshots.com/album/58669595eliwuKThe photos of my track show off the AusMicro logo that I put onto the barrier on the bridge. I think 3 or 4 shots have the AusMicro logo in them, and that page has had over 8000 hits.

My track – http://community.webshots.com/album/58669595eliwuKHes got a ms, which I assume is a MicroSizer. Nice try though Barrell.
What I want to kow is how to get my hands on some of those new MS bodies easily and cheaply.

My track – http://community.webshots.com/album/58669595eliwuKBack on track… AusMicro minature figurines? Scaled down figurines of drivers or pit crew or just people with the AusMicro logo on them, Team AusMicro or something.
A cary case for 1 car and controller that looks like a garage, perhaps pit lane looking, with the AusMicro logo on it in several places. Cary cases can clip together so you can buy 6 of them to carry all 6 of your cars in 1 hand (needs a handle), by snapping your AusMicro garages together.
AusMicro.com PC badge to stick on your PC? Although I think the best first merchandise product would be something that the purchasers of will display in public. Increase the profile of the site. To that end, Stickers and Tshirts would be th way to go.

My track – http://community.webshots.com/album/58669595eliwuKThey should be way less that $5 per shell, seeing as the pullbacks are about $6-8 and includde the whole car, but as Kitty says, there’s an upfront cost of $500 for that, and not all of us have that kicking around like spare change.

My track – http://community.webshots.com/album/58669595eliwuKYeah, not a MicroKY. Although that could appeal to an entirely different market.

My track – http://community.webshots.com/album/58669595eliwuKSensible!?!!?!! How dare you?! =o)
How about some lube rebadged as AusMicro Lube “slicker than pig fat through a duck”?
That better?

My track – http://community.webshots.com/album/58669595eliwuKWho the hell would want an Orange Supra! Now purple. Purple I could understand.
Beetle looks cool. Black RX7 looks cool, Red Zed looks good.
Hopefully Tomy will sell those soon for BCG to the world wide market too.

Have you fine tuned the steering with the white adjustment lever underneath the car, between the wheels? I dare say you have, but I thought I would mention the obvious first.

My track – http://community.webshots.com/album/58669595eliwuKThey (or one of them) did say that they needed the comments from the AusMicro community to help them make a decision, and also wanted ideas, and also wanted comment on those ideas, and also wanted people who could help see those ideas to fruition. No good someone sending in a great idea if A&D can’t easily find people to make the item, or having a pocket protector maker in the forums if no one wants pocket protectors.
I think A&D are waiting for the dust to settle on a single, or small number of items that are popular amongst the community (higher chance for sales), is cheap to produce (mates rates from an AusMicro member) and cheap to mail out.
The more ideas thrown into the pot, the more options A&D have to select from. And if members seem more set on one idea than another, that will also help them make their selection.

My track – http://community.webshots.com/album/58669595eliwuKAs long as I go down in the history books for coming up with the idea. The problem would be having flat out provide no pulses, not even super fast ones. But I’m no electronics guru.

My track – http://community.webshots.com/album/58669595eliwuKTrading Direct may agree to be sponsors. Certainly if they want their logo on the T they should put money towards it. No money, no logo I say.
Racing theme was just an idea, just brainstorming people. No need to get grumpy. :angry:
