BrennanFan Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 With the revenue from the scarves, we will be purchasing a new banner. Anyone want to post some design ideas? (strobe z im looking in your direction). Anything goes as long as it says 'The Voyageurs.com' I'm thinking 1 metre x 8 metres, which is how big i think this one is: http://www.kickabola.com/showthread.php?t=4774&highlight=banner the same manufacturer of the above banner would be making ours (same place we are getting our scarves made). FYI, price would be under $300 shipping included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hodgkiss Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 let me take a crack at it and let me get you a quote as well... i know a printer very well and $300 seems a little high. so 3' x 24'? you can put me down for a scarf as well. -hodge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Total $273. (actually I think that North End Elite Banner may be bigger than 1m x 8m, so cost might be more). and we are assured a quality product (the fabric they use is VERY light). but see if you can get us a better deal.

strobe_z Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Simple and to the point. I vote for keeping a small, and tasteful ".com" on the end of the logo... because it IS an advertisement. We WANT fans to be able to find and join us, no? I can have a 300dpi 3'x24' banner ready to go in 2 minutes... just tell me where to send it.

strobe_z Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Sent you a reply BrennanFan... I think hodgkiss wants to take a run at it as well. However, I had a neat idea just now... How 'bout making a giant replica V-scarf... I don't have the master files, but I think Jarrek does. If not, it wouldn't be too hard to recreate. Sort of poetic seeing as how the scarves provided the funds for this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strobe_z Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Well.. just think.... 20,000 V's holding their scarves up under a giant banner.... The only downside is that there's no way to tastefully insert a ".com" in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I was trying to say was that a bunch of V's holding up their scarves under the giant v-scarf replica banner would be very cool, but there was no way to add the ".com" to the existing design... This design doesn't really allow ".com" to be added in any way. However, If we decide to go with a unique banner, then I would suggest using the existing Voyageurs text mark and adding a tasteful ".com" to it so that we could use it as an advertisement for the site.
