YW stickers?

[odomo]

I think it'd be cool if there were YW stickers (like bumper stickers or something) that we could buy...that'd be fun!

YW pride!

[achtungbaby]

That'd be cool! Anyone care to take a stab at this?

[kitty]

Anyone know how to get them printed out? I could design something...

i like the banner on top of the window for the forums...thatd be a cool sticker...

i like the idea of stickers...but not really bumper stickers. something tells me that asian people aren't really into putting bumper stickers on their cars.

Small stickers that could be applied to random surfaces like utility poles and people's foreheads would be neat. I agree with Kasie... personally I make sure my car has no identifiable markings whatsoever. Anyone familiar with the Frances Heussenstamm bumper sticker study knows how easily bias plays a role in traffic law enforcement, and cops here in NJ just love racial profiling.

Cafepress.com does oval and rectangular stickers and other crap. Not sure what the quality is; I've heard some bad stuff about their t-shirts but good things about their mousepads. Stickers start at $1.99 so it's kind of pricey, but it doesn't require the outlay of cash for a run. Maybe a count of how many stickers people would be interested in, once a design is chosen, would help decide the matter.

agreed :) I put those together real quickly... and rectangle is easier to deal with if you're going quickly.

[Fireblade]

here we go. I hope this works.

[Fireblade]

YAY!!! IT works! AH HAHAHA

yea, I use aol. But damn I'm glad I got that webspace...

[kitty]

hey fireblade, any way you could use a different globe? that globe is kinda pointed at Africa..... :lol:

[Fireblade]

crud... does it matter? :lol:
I'll go look for another globe then...

[kitty]

:lol: not really but it reminds me of black pride stickers....which are good but not really appropriate for a website talking about asians :)

[AngryABCGirl]

The first one looks cute, I'd put it on my car next to all my anti-war stickers and my panda dolls. :lol:

werd.. bumper stickers are a little tacky for me.

but it would be cool to put in other places. :)

[kasia]

i think i forgot to mention that the proceeds from our yw auctions - such as the auction for ab's autograph and other future auctions - will go to the yw stickers fund. :)

[angelwiththesword]

i like the second oval one. however, it should either be overly simple, or overly decorated. it seems to be in the middle, which makes it not as appealing as it could be.

try putting the word "yellow" in different languages in the background

[applehead]

i really love fireblade's second design.
how about address labels?

i really like this one. thanks, fireblade.

if all goes well here (http://forums.yellowworld.org/index.php?s=&act=ST&f=37&t=7255&st=45&#entry101691) and our other upcoming auctions (meena said "absolutely no" to a pic of her sister greena - but hey, i tried!), we'll have stickers for everyone in no time.

[Fireblade]

hey, sorry about not commenting earlier about the yw stickers...
my compy crapped out on me, and i lost my illustrator program. i'm going to have to look for the damn thing again. (yes, i'm a damn pirate...)

anyways, if you guys are set on the second oval design, go for it. otherwise, i'll try to look for other designs i can come up with.

btw angel, what asian languages should i use for yellow? suggestions would be nice.. i already know i'm going put in:
chinese
japanese
korean
vietnamese

what else would y'all like to see? :dance:

[angelwiththesword]

i think the ones you listed are nice already

these are gonna be hella tits, yo ^_^

dunno if we're still doing this. here's another design I came up with while surfing for random images.

http://www.people.cornell.edu/pages/jf86/Homework/sticker.jpg

whaddy'all think?

edit: Here's an oval version.

http://www.people.cornell.edu/pages/jf86/Homework/ovalsticker.jpg

[ChinaLama]

first one may be less confusing.

[angelwiththesword]

agreed.

though the image of the fist sort of gives off a "they can take our lives....but they cannot take our freedom!!!" image.

actually, it looks like it'd do as much damage as the tagline on the front page did. the tagline i'm referring to was "helping asian americans kick ass" yeah, that went over real well when i was whoring out the anna stuff to non-asians...

Sorry for the belated response...to this...I like it! It's got attitude...although I was thinking the clenched fist was a little played out. I still like the intent though.
