Badge - revisited?

[The Great Wallsendo]

One of the members raised this question not long ago about a NESA badge....

http://www.nesa.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=14218&highlight=badge

There is indeed an old one...but what about updating it?

Obviously these things cost money, and require minimum orders etc but I reckon there'd be sufficient interest from members on here to justify having a new badge...

Now that the holiday season is (more or less) over and everyone (Mod's Admin etc) is back - how about revisiting the discussion and seeing where it goes?

Great idea Tony,

Just had look through the associated threads at the bottom of the page, a previous member suggested this as the new badge

[The Great Wallsendo]

I've just read the associated thread too...the designer seemed to stir up a hornets nest at the time

[KeithB]

Aye lol, they tend to come & go every now & then

Getting back to the badge, I think Steve said he has a relation that does graphics.

I not sure how the existing badges came about (before my time) but by creating a new one would we not be leaving Billys & Titan with a load of badges they've got no chance of selling?

[The Great Wallsendo]

I suppose we'd have to find out how much they hold in stock....maybe part of the cost would have to accommodate the "buying" of any old stock...

If Billys or Titan hold hundreds then it's not going to be worth it...but if it's not too many then it may work out OK

Saying that, given the age of the badge - surely a company such as Titan would be able to write off old stock?...even Billy must class the badges in a similar vein? I could be wrong.....

Do you not think a Box sticker would be better ???

[The Great Wallsendo]

Well I've emailed Billy and Titan asking about numbers held in stock etc....

Billy has already replied and has just the 1...

awaiting response from Titan

[KeithB]

Nice one Tony.

I've got more stock than Billys - 2 lol

Titan still have them advertised on their website so I'm guessing they must have a few left. I ordered a battery harness last year and it came with a badge already stitched on, they must be trying to get rid of them.

phill_itofish beat me to it, a box sticker would be good

[moocher]

how about a hat with a bell on it hee hee lmao

[The Great Wallsendo]

I like the idea of a sticker too....but I guess it would be a concensus thing.

Anyone interested just put your comment in here

[KeithB]

Stickers sound good to me.

[TOMMY NEPTUNE]

Puts me hand up too, for the sticker idea...

[The Great Wallsendo]

I guess we also need input from Admin as to the "corporate banner"

IE: is the NESA logo, above left, the sites official label in its font, design etc?

What info/acknowledgements should be incorporated?

[SIXFOOTSTEVE]

I'm up for stickers and badges ,anything to advertise the site and help members recognise each other .
