Title: Reunion plaque
Post by: Mike Harry on March 17, 2011, 10:46:49 AM

Im looking at funding (out of my own pocket mind you) some small plaques for the first annual American Skier get together.

Its looking like 20 would be plenty......... I used to get these things all the time when I would take my old F-100 to car shows and it was nice to be able to display that you had been somewhere, at least in my opinion.

I was thinking I would put one on my dash or possibly start on the windshield one at the top corner so I could add one for years to come at the future get togethers  ;)

Just an Idea, but the reason for the post is I would need GOOD pictures of

1. The ski girl badge
2. The Advance badge

My idea is to have one badge on one left, the other on the right and something like "1st annual American Skier Reuinion (Location + Date) and have "American Skier" in the bubble script of course.

Any ideas or thoughts?

Thanks Joel, glad you like the idea! I emailed Ron and Dan to see if either had any graphics they would mind sharing.

Mike, one of the guys on here has the Skier Girl graphic work.  He made iron-on shirts / hoodies with the Skier Girl graphic - pretty nice too.  But, I cant remember WHHHHOOOOOOO it was - I'm getting old and the memory is fading FAST...   :(

I'll repost this in a separate thread so maybe he'll see it!

Holy crap!!! I'm about 3 hours in and half way through cleaning up the advance shield on the computer pixel by pixel. The one Ron sent me is great, but very grainey...... especially after I scanned it into JPEG format

As soon as this one is done I'm going to try and start on the ski girl. Have a few shots of it, but I can tell they are going to take forever to clean up if anyone has anything better they could email or send me.

Phil ill send you this one as soon as I finish it.
