^^^ good idea and just sell them in pairs to avoid a stock of one particular side ;)Quote:

Good Point, and shouldn't be TOO much extra cost involved. Remember my point about it saying "THE website" rather than "A website", the former has a bit of 'oomph', whereas the latter makes us sound like also-rans...Quote:

I still think that the wording should read "THE WEBSITE..." as opposed to "A WEBSITE...", the former sounds confident, the latter sounds apologetic. If "THE" is too egotistical, it could perhaps be "YOUR WEBSITE..."
I don't know exactly how they're produced, but I think, if possible, it would be good to have the logo sticker as a 'die-cut' outline of the MINI, rather than the image on a square patch.
Sorry if I've missed this, but is it for the inside or outside of the window? If it's for the inside I know you can get 'permanent' versions and the ones you can peel off and re-position... preferences?
Finally... What about cost? Is someone paying 'up front' for production? I think there should be a communal fund to pay for these - or at least a list of those who want them and pre-payment - so that one person isn't left out of pocket with a bagful of unused stickers.
^^ I'd also go with that tbh. Simple and clear, having "The website for..." just adds unnecessary clutter IMO
It's also my favourite. :)
Ok I think it's time for an executive decision....
I think the vast majority agree that the above logo is what they want. We won't please all of the people all of the time. ;)
So, I'm going to give people til the end of the week to give me serious objections to this design (I also want it to be handed if someone has the skills to do that).
Alan I also need you to give your blessing or otherwise to the design and then we need to work out the cost of setup etc and how it will be paid for.
Thanks :)

Red S looks like we are S centred website which we aren't. If it was white just like the rest, that would be better... Simple is better with a logo
I'd also go with white S because it stands out.
When we start to embroider T // polo shirts etc the background colour can be whatever colour the shirt comes in with the white highlight, no need for the black background. In my case, dark green polo shirt with white embroidery, would match The Beast. Rob could have black embroidery on a red T shirt to go with Nasher, or red on black, if that makes sense. The costs would be the same as it is still only one colour being embroidered on a standard shirt.

Lots of good points here. On reflection I have to agree with Craig and Malcolm - Re. being not just 'S' oriented and using a white 'S' for clarity.
Combining BOTH their views and picking up on Mon's point Re. using a 'non-serif' typeface like Arial - also better for clarity and gives a 'cleaner' more up-to-date look.
However, I'd maybe move the 'S thing' on a bit and suggest that as we're trying to promote an 'ALL MINI' image where all variants are welcome, we should drop the 'stylised' S and just use the same typeface for the whole line. If we have an 'S' which looks like the badging, it's going to 'suggest' an 'S' bias whatever colour it is.
If no red S, then a saltire inside the O would be smart

Lets you click through using next. :thumbs up: The purple to me will be lost and as said we don’t want “cotland” I honestly still like the bigger “S” but then does that then look silly if its just white as well.:confused:
I've kept well away from this discussion so far, we are 21 pages in and still no one can agree on what style we should go for :lol:
I think the discussion regarding the S symbol is typical of the feelings within the community.
The S on the Cooper S model is such a style icon, but, to me it simply denotes it's a MINI, of course others will disagree hence the 21 pages, can any non S owners actually say whether it bothers them or not if the new logo (by page 1,000,000) is made that it will offend them in any way to make them leave the site or post up angry comments.
What about the Clubbie, Paceman, Countryman, Diesel, One's and Cooper's folks think..........................
If anyone wants my opinion, to add the S in it's red form and in the actual font will make it stand out in a way to highlight that it is of the MINI marque and not because we are an S only site.
I was slightly disappointed with the reaction to the GP section, i was trying to bring in much needed new membership to NMS and GP owners were joining up, but, i was happy to drop it.
Anyway, i've said it before and i'll say it again, this is your site, i simply run it and give it a host home to live and breathe.
Once the final design is agreed i'll implement it into the site.
And, as was shown in the past whereby i chose the logo against the poll i won't have any say in this one, you're ball you decide :smilewinkgrin:
I'm cool with the 'S' being as the car but would prefer it in white TBH.......don't think it would stop me buying them though. I think handing them is a must and buying them in pairs is a very sensible idea IMO. Just my 'ONE' pence worth :Whistle::thumbs up:
I showed one with that earlier onQuote:

As a COOPER owner, I personally think the S should tie in with the rest of the chosen font and not based on the Cooper S "S", just my honest opinion folks, please dont knock me to the ground and kick me... :smilewinkgrin:
And as Alan commented on, what about the rest of the mini classes like, Cabrio, Clubbie, Countryman, Coupe', Paceman and Roadster? well what if it was possible to make silhoettes (like the hatch, above) of either varient of mini so what ever model you own you would be able to get a badge/sticker of your preferred model which will still advertise the site and your particular vehicle :yes nod:
Ooooooo....nice idea Ali :thumbs up:Quote:

Happy to have it all the same font if that what the majority want ;)

thanks Rob
I still think the Red Stylised 'S' is the most effective design - but I don't want to upset 'non-S' members.
If they weren't overly concerned I'd go for that option. Any COOPER or ONE members have a strong opinion on this before I vote?
