Badges? Stinking Badges?, Yes...I do think we need them Options

I started on this little project awhile ago and hopefully not stepping on any toes. My Photoshop skills have been improving little by little and wanted to bling up my car. I have researched lots of threads regarding this but have never seen anything materialize so I am taking the initiative.

At one time there was a Club Badge...but it wasn't really this club. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Then lots of talk about a badge for this club; but still no badge.

Lots of you wanted stickers...including me. So I took it upon myself to start designing something familiar yet unique.

i came up with two concepts, one showing all the years a 914 was made and another which can be modified to show the year of your car or the current year like 2014. The design could also be used for a true emblem badge (still researching).

I am looking into print options: White vinyl, clear vinyl, static cling. Clear creates an issue since most printers don't print white ink, or cost increases.

Verensmitglied means Club Member.

If there is interest I'll set up a shopping list once i get pricing figured out. Hopefully this will be well received.

Thanks, Gary

I'm no lawyer, nor do I play one on TV, but for what I remember, you can't copyright or trademark a number.

Although I did design the original badge, I can't (and won't) claim any copyrights on the checkered/gridded inner circle, which is obviously based on the "Weltmeister" decal from the early 70-ies.
The "castled" (for lack of a better term) outer egde is also way to generic to stake any claims to it.

As far as I'm concerned, 914club.com is dead and burried and my 914 silhoutte design stays burried with it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

No offense to Gary, but to me it feels kinda like
