Sorry, but with Multiple lines of Text, doing an actual Poll looked to be to difficult.
PLEASE keep this thread about TEXT for our Brick ONLY.

Your ideas?



While I do care what Text goes on our Brick, I don't care either, you know?
I'm never going to be the smartest or most clever, so I will leave that up to the rest
of you guys.

Then again...
IF we go with more than one brick, we'll need more than one Text. (duh)

#2 I guess but it hasn't the Porsche word in it. idea.gif

Thanks for heading up this project Scott.
What about payment?
Paypal might be the easiest, but they charge a lot of fees on a bunch of small transactions. People sending you a check would ensure that all of the donations go to purchase the brick.

On the SCRAMP web site they say that if we use a logo on a 12 x 12 brick we can have up to 5 lines of text. They also say each line can only have 15 letters. I think that only applies to 8" bricks. On a 12" brick we should be able to get about 22 letters per line.

Here is my suggestion for what to say on our brick.

'middle' or the Greman equivalent 'mittle' ?
'maniacs' or 'mayhem' or 'madness' ??

1) re the Payment, checks would be ok with me.
So would PayPal though, however, I'd want people to 'send' an extra $1.00 to cover the fees, wouldn't that be fair?
I mean the largest donation might be just $20, the paypal fee isn't going to be more than one dollar Over that, is it?


2) I'm not so sure about your suggestion (only my opionion John) with Middle Motor.
I know what that is, but wouldn't Mid-Engined be better?
Wouldn't more people get That instead? unsure.gif confused24.gif

I would vote to keep it simpler:

Logo
914
www.914world.com

(just like in vegas' image but without the slogan)

How about something along the lines of racing heritage like:
Porsche 914
24 Stunden LeMans 1970 World Champion
914World.com

Hi,
I like number two. Put me down for $20.00 and let me know where to send the money. It'll have to be a check. I don't do PayPal. I like this idea.
Cheers, Elliot
Allan
I like #2 also. Give me an address and the check is on the way.

Figuring out what to say on the brick is tougher than I thought.
It seems like a 12 x 12 (the only one available with a logo) is our target.
I am confident we can collect the necessary $500.

I re-read all the fine print and these are our guidelines and restrictions.
    *Maximun of 5 lines of text.
    *Limit of 15 characters per line. (This is the part that makes design difficult. I do like the LeMans ideas but it does not fit smoothly. I also like simple but since we can't use a large font we would just be getting a lot of dead space.)
    *All caps and centered.
Here are two more ideas: with or without "step on it".
Both are similar - w/ or w/o spaces between the letters in Porsche.

Vegas Racer,

I like your designs. Thanks for taking the time to do those.

I like the bottom left. Kind of makes the www.914world.com stand out more.
I dont like the "step on it" statement.

We could replace that with "Get Out of the Way" wink.gif

the ONLY difference I can see is that the *lettering* of the work Porsche is together...

I like #3. If another option prevails, please don't use 'it's not a VW', because it IS. Every 356, 550, 7(series) and 9(series) IS a VW because VW IS Porsche.

Yup. That is the only difference.
Those two seem to be the overwhelming favorites.

Maybe a poll with just those two.
If you want I can redo them as accurately as possible and start a new thread and we can finally get an answer.

That sounds pretty good to me John.

Do it!

The bottom two, right?

I like the Porsche letters together, myself.

I also wonder IF we'd hear from Porsche IF we were to put Porsche on our Brick? lol
wheelo
agree.gif bottom right of john's or scott's #3..

Keep-it-simple ...

*** UPDATE ***


Well, as of 9.30pm, CA time, Mon nite

I've rec'd 5 Payments, totaling $105.00

Of you *fine 914 people* that have said you'll Donate, I count $455.


So, IF everyone pays that says they are going to, and those people that have
said they'll Donate, but just haven't given an amount, we should be able to get
to the $500 goal:
(12x12 inch Brick - 5 Lines of Text with Logo)
