NAFEX.net Decal vote

[Chris L.]

It is time to decide what decal makes it. Please vote on the ones you all like the best. I will pick the top 3 and then do a final vote for the one that will win.

There are so many great submissions. I really want to thank you all for putting the time and effort into making them.

Also I would like to thank Kenn Filkins for offering to print them up. I really appreciate it Kenn, ( his websites are www.filkinsfoto.com www.baywinghawks.com have a look at them!) I cant wait to see them!!!

The winner will get 10 of the NAFEX decals and a NAFEX t-shirt.

Good luck, I cant wait to see how this turns out.

[Chris L.]

Good god this is hard!! I may have to do a couple of different decals.. We will see how this goes!!!

[kimmerar]

Well Chris - I can't pick one from that. Sorry. I have it narrowed down to 4 or 5 frus. I agree - get some different ones. HH, RT, Falcon, Accipiter ????

I'm not voting now. Too hard to choose just one. I really like the accipiter but it's round except on the upper left side???

Oh well - maybe tomorrow

[Chris L.]

5 people have voted and all have picked different ones.. This is going to be great to see what the top 3 are

[tescobedo]

Kenn,

What's the minimum order?

[tescobedo]

Chris,

I thought I voted for the round accipiter decal, but I was wrong. The layout is a bit confusing on the first few decals.

[Chris L.]

Tony,
hey man!! good to see you posting! Hope all is well. I will fix your vote. Yea it is a little confusing.

give me a call

[Eagle Owl]

Hey Chris, the second decal should say .net, not .com. Not a big deal now, but if it wins it will need to be changed.

Harris and the Jack. tony

[redtailflyer]

they are all so good!!! good job guys...in the end anyone of them would look good!

Chris, I know you gotta pick One for the site,but would it be possible to get a sticker or T-shirt of the one specific to the bird we fly?

[areal]

Chris if youre having trouble deciding on a single banner to use, have a look at that javascript code I sent you before for rotating the adverts. Just replace each entry with the URL of your different banners and then replace the default banner code <between the <td> and </td> tags with the rotation code and you can have as many banners rotating as you want.
Personally I like the idea of more than one banner because its very naive to think all falconers could unite behind one concept, our outlooks and expectations are just too different for that ever to work.

Jon,
no we cant as it is gong to be a batch run. So Kenn would have to set up art for each one. Its just easier to keep it simple. I like the idea though.. thank you for the input

Evan,
this is for a decal ( sticker) But you have a good idea, I may use it as the sites banner as well... we will see what one wins.

[Grahame]

I misread and thought we could vote for 3 or 4. I picked #2 but would also vote for the last one too.

Ahhh, now it makes sense to be calling it a decal. Well if I think of a way to rotate the image on a sticker or T-Shirt, I'll patent it and allow you to use it under license PMSL

Best of luck with the shirts. Are they for a particular event?

Chris I believe youre due over here in the UK in the not too distant future?

[raptrlvr]

This is a tough decision. I would assume that if your flying a falcon, then your going to vote for the ones with falcons in them. If your flying an accipiter or a HH then you will probably vote for one 0f those.

[Takasho]

Bah! Too hard!

Are you going to make the top three or is it going to come down to just one decal, take it or leave it?

[Chris L.]

Isaac, I will do the top 3 if Kenn thinks it is doable. It is really up to him and the set up costs. What ever he thinks is fair I am game for. I will discuss with him what we can do. I was thinking top 3 myself, but as I said it all comes down to costs!!!

Evan,
No nothing special just trying to get the site more united. It will be great to have these on giant hoods and such. Especially since these are made by members of NAFEX and the entire community is voting on them. Should be fun to see how it turns out.

When I make to your side of the pond, I will bring a few for sure. Andy's land rover will have a new paint job !!!

[Chappy99]

I voted for the bottom one.

I would have to loved to have seen one that says
"NAFEX.NET"
"WE FLY TEH BIRDS!"
"AND"
"WE DRINK TEH BEERZ!"

but, I'm a giant redneck!

[Chris L.]

Ok Guys I am closing this October 15th so I can get the wining decal design over to Ken so they will be printed in time for NAFA. Please make your votes now!!!

Chris,

We can do three different decals for the members to pick/buy from if you want to have that many.

Just let me know and I'll make it happen.

It will be fun to see them printed up.

PM me about how many you would like of each one decal.

[Chris L.]

Ken,
Sounds great. I will give you a call once the poll is over. I really appreciate you helping out with this. we will get the costs and such worked out... thanks again for all of your help

[Chris L.]

Well it looks like we have some winners. I decided to do the top 3 decals and here they are


The Decal with the most votes ( 28%) was: This was created by Mike !!!







The Decal with the second most votes ( 14%) was ( i think Ken created this one- let me know who did)






The Decal that came in third most votes ( 10%) was ( I think Ken did this one too?)





Thank you again for all of those who submitted Decals. They are were great. And thank you to all the members that voted

Going to get with Ken to get a batch of these ran. I will have them at NAFA for sure and will get them up on here so you all can get them as well

Thank you to all, I really appreciate everyone makeing NAFEX such a great place!!

Chris

[hcf]

hi guys,
the decal that got voted third would look good on spare wheel covers! if it were cost effective.

[Kenn Filkins]

Chris,

I think I did create both #2 and #3. But the pics came from great members of this site.

[Eagle Owl]

Chris, I posted this earlier on this thread, but I don't know if it was seen...this one needs to be changed before you print them up. It needs to be NAFEX.net, not .com

[Kenn Filkins]

Chris, I posted this earlier on this thread, but I don't know if it was seen...this one needs to be changed before you print them up. It needs to be NAFEX.net, not .com

Yes, I noted that too.... This one was just a proto-type.... as was #3....

[Chris L.]

Ken,
will you pm me your phone number so you and I can discuss cost and how many to print of each..

look forward to talking to you

[Kenn Filkins]

Chris,

Yes... I'll send it right now.

[WinsorWoods]

I noticed that several of the decals feature the moon in the design. Is there any significance to the moon with falconry or was this just an artistic inclusion?

Artistic.

At least the ones I did.

[Kenn Filkins]

Sandie,

Very artistic indeed. This one is still my favorite! Great work.

Thanks. To tell you the truth, it's my fave too. =)

[MikeT307]

Kenn,

I can send you the file in a higher resolution if you need it. Thanks for offering to print them up.

Now the fine print...
If you voted in the decal contest you are required to buy one of the top three stickers!
