Official AstroSafari Decal Topic

So is this going to be like a vote or have several different options available?

This is not a vote. For the most part I just wanted to lock all the topics we had on decals and just have one. Also I wanted to get some feedback on the designs but since there will be more than one official "decal" it is not important that we vote on just one. I hope to have a purchase page up soon where members can select which decals, what color, what size, etc and order them.

Ok, cool. I thought I might have had a hookup with this but my guy has disappeared.

my thoughts are that there should be one design... thats the way all companies/organizations are recognized. just my 2 cents

I really like how the factory text was used in both designs. I'm sold.
Not really looking for something stretching the length of the van though. Are you really going to offer that?
Anyway, looking forward to the purchase post.

I'm surprised at everyones reaction to the van decal. You are looking at it all wrong, the van is part of the decal. That is not a decal stretching the length of the van, that is a decal of van with writing on it. Ya know what I mean? The van is the decal. Maybe it is a bad idea. Oh well, the guy who designed it (jlelec) disappeared off the planet anyways.

Yeah, the "van sticker" just seems a bit much. I know its doesn't stretch the length of the van. I just prefer a simple sticker like the other ones. Its kinda of like those windshield banners that say 'astro' or 'chevrolet'. It seems unnecessary, to me.

You know, you may be joking about the matter. But there are two full size vans here in town that instead of bodywork and paint, they were sanded down, and had those vinyl wraps applied to cover rust and blemishes.

I wasn't joking about it. I saw a car at a used car lot that had that done. One reason why I carry a magnet with me.

I think any of those designs would be great. I would proudly display it on both of my Vans. And for the guys that were talking about Ductape....look at this car I spotted in San Diego! Oh and yes there is a 90 year old man driving that car...can you see his head?

OMG that is scary, that he's still on the road.
Did he live in that thing?
