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
+1 on this

Question though: why are people against having "Pacific" ? We are in the PNW afterall.
I like the font and size of the "Pacific NorthWest". And I was looking and it and it wouldnt all fit on one side or the other. Maybe if we put Lexus.com, then maybe "Pacific NorthWest" would fit under the right side, with the same font and size...I dont know.


MKIIISUPRA...+1 on the idea of putting CL in place of the L

You guys are coming out with some great ideas. Now we just need to figure which one we want on our cars

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

cool.. im pretty new to this stuff... Started couple months ago by designing a couple of posters and fight programs for a fight my gym was having...

who ever knew that vinyl designs would be so complex??

anyways... i've procrastinated enough for today... feel free to make changes... cant wait to see the finished product...
