ruffgeezer Posted February 11, 2020 Author Share Posted February 11, 2020 What does anyone think to the new design? I can change the colours easy enough. I will probably order a batch of each, just interested in your thoughts! UltraWomble 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loserone Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 I still have three left somehow, I keep moving them from car to car and amazingly they withstand it really well. I will offer an opinion, but I do not think that it should be taken into consideration given the above: * I don't really like the phone number, because I'm a woke C. But I still have it on display on all my cars. * I'm not sure about the tagline on the new one. Like the 80s futuristic style though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Bell Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 If I had a note, it would be the colour. Brown or red to match the forum and AS logo. I'll take what I'm given though. LightBulbFun and Saabnut 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ETCHY Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Sorry to be dim but I don't quite get the tag line on the new one Cool design & I like the font. Be interesting to see it in a different colour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownnova Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 I hadn’t even noticed the phone number!!! Absolutely love the new design, it looks awesome! Maybe beige font? Or fluorescent orange. I’d prefer that to pink tbh... LightBulbFun 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightBulbFun Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I agree I think it may look better in an Autoshite colour (and with perhaps the normal forum tag line? if i'm being fussy!) also may I recommend putting ".com" in the underscore like the previous version? (that way people actually know its a website/internet forum, assuming you want to "advertise" that fact of course ) its a shame the original style seems to have sold out? I was hoping on picking one up for REV when she hit the road! (I like the 1980s 7 segment LED/VFD look of the new design but I currently prefer the old design as I felt it matched the general aesthetic of the forum itself better) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robinmasters Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I like the concept. The 7-segment text on the left is gr9. BUT (and I don't feel bad about saying this because you did say it was 'work in progress' Tim), - Not sure about the tagline; any other suggestions? Because I have no imagination, my only idea is ' The future of your motoring is our concern' - Personally I consider the font colour more eighties neon than eighties LED - Keeping the same font for the address? Not sure it works with the rest of it. Not suggesting the same font as the left bit, but maybe something a bit more modern? However it turns out, I'll have five.

ruffgeezer Posted February 15, 2020 Author Share Posted February 15, 2020 I think the .com might be a bit too prominent on this version though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulgalour Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Grey and red might feel more 80s for the 'modern' look (and be appalling to read if you get the shade of grey and red just so) and I don't think the .com is too prominent on this iteration. I really liked the pink option, as it happens. somewhatfoolish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dozeydustman Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 @captain_70s colour change is very 1980s vacuum fluorescent display and suits the typeface perfectly. LightBulbFun and Fat_Pirate 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
