I like something along the lines of this logo but if they're strict about copyright issues how about a "fancier" font. And instead of the Lexus logo in the middle can someone turn the letters CL into a decent centerpiece. What programs are you guys/girls using, are their any certain things that wont work when turning it into a sticker? I just got microsoft paint but Im decent at drawing so I might have to draw up some ideas and post them....... but personally I'd like something a little thinner and long versus bulky 
Excellent student-ing there
I like this one, I guess maybe it's sort of what I always had in mind (?) I like the idea of moving 'pacific northwest' all the way to one side or the other.
Question though: why are people against having "Pacific" ? We are in the PNW afterall.
MKIIISUPRA...+1 on the idea of putting CL in place of the L

photoshop is raster based
not good for die cut vinyls
you should try using indesign or illustrator
the copied typeface of what lexus uses is called Alexis
i have it and ive edited it myself too to get to the length of L that i need for this
print shops usually take in illustrator or PDF files packaged with the typeface to make decent quality prints or vinyls
so just u know, dont want you to waste your efforts on photoshop
and there are a lot more considerations to be had when making vinyl designs and sending them to print shops
prices arent cheap either
a lot more goes behind the scene
im keeping my designs simple because cost varies a lot and the extra efforts to get complicated designs to work for the printers can take a LOT of time and money too
excellent design though justenzo
im going to work that design into the CL logo
not good for die cut vinyls
