Nice one Sticky.

I seem to be hooked on Dark and Moody.

It's not as busy as the other version, the lettering is easier to read and the Yowie is a bit more subtle which adds some mystique.

Good work mate.

Woo!!!!
Congratulations, Sticky, on your winning design - thanks for taking the time to portray our Yowie so wonderfully.

I look forward to seeing this sticker on a few bumper bars in the future.

Insert 'applause' sound effects here...

What do you reackon about making the website address text on the one with the sun background all one colour, like white with a border to make it easier to read...

Maybe we need to do a revote just between your two creations above to get to a final version of the sticker?
...Seeker my friend... I did another tweak as per your request... but when I made it all white it looked flat and didn't look right... but I did do a gradient border around it as you suggested...here it is...

...I do think though... that regardless of all these tweaks... Dean has probably made up his own mind on exactly how he wants the sticker to be... so whatever I'm doing now is probably just pure whimsey... but hey... it's great fun tweaking these stickers to see how others envision them...

...thanks Iwanna... I must say that I tend to agree with you on this one... although I'm not sure that this sticker is the winning one my friend... I'm positive that it is the sun version that Dean likes best... we'll have to wait and see I imagine...

...thankyou sweet Shazz... that Yowie is going to be a continuous work in progress methinks... I intend to do a full length version first ... then do a ... "less groomed" ... version... then perhaps one where the hairline goes all the way down to the actual brow line too... that's why I'm hoping that like tweaking these stickers based on people's input... I'm hoping that people will post their ideas on what THEY think a Yowie looks like on my "Artwork Critique" section so that I can get an overall version that everyone agrees upon... what I painted is how I see it... it may not be the final version in the end... (sorry to write a short novel then Shazz)... again sweety... thankyou... cheers... Stickyfingers. (cool) (jest)

...thankyou sweet Mossy... very much appreciated (rad) (thumb up) ... Dean... Lasso... just curious but... exactly which sticker is the winning entry?... what was the final design that you guys settled with in the end???... a few people are a tad bit curious... because of all the tweaks that went on AFTER the final decision... some of us are unsure... is there any chance of posting the winning design up please??... cheers...

With thing a bit hectic this side of xmas we will see what we can do about getting these stickers done and printed in January.

I will keep you informed and will post the sticker that is getting printed as so as we can.

The stickers will be free of charge. Once available we will put a thread up for orders.

Wow, thanks, Lasso, and also to everyone who is helping/helped to get this sticker idea off the ground and onto our bumper bars. I didn't imagine they would be free, as I'm sure there are some expenses involved - I'd be happy to pay a couple of bucks towards the costs of printing, that's for sure.

Kind regards,
Shazz

I dont mind at all paying a couple of bucks to cover postage and printing. That should cover it right?

...Lasso... lasso... Lasso ... sweet sweet Lasso... goods news and bad news... the cap fits perfect... but the shirt is about 3 to 4 sizes too small... I'm a bit of a chubby chops... the shirt needed to be XXL or higher methinks...(I think that I mentioned this in a PM to you sweet lasso... if I didn't... I'll give myself a good slapping!!! )... I put it on and the sweet wife laughed and said... "can you at least breathe???... will you be able to take it off on your own"???... (I think that what she said is code for... "you're a big fat bastard!)... hmmmmm... Lasso... do you have any bigger shirts available???... after all... I would LOVE to actually wear an AYR shirt... now that would be cool (rad) ... cheers...

Hi Guys, Sorry for the very late response to the comp, I have been out of action for some time now. I found out the hard way why you should unplug in a storm. My modem tried to jump start my computer with some extra volts from a lightning strike. After the smoke cleared there wasn't much left of the modem and computer wasn't much better either (kill)

Anyway congratulations Sticky for your excellent effort and origanality.. (respekt) and thanks to those who voted my way (thumb up) I know I promised 5 bucks to anyone who voted for me, but since Sticky took the prize I withdraw my origanal offer... (sweat drop) (sweat drop)

By the way I haven't been able to logon using Strange1???

Hey folks..if these stickers generate as much interest and comment from the general public as the shirts have then it will be well worth paying a few bucks each for the stickers...me i have a pre printing order for a dozen

cheers
