Flyers/Poster Design

[Mrsmopp]

Hi All,

We are in the process of looking into having some posters/flyers made up and would like your input.

Would anyone like to have a go at drawing up a design to be used? Once we have a few ideas then we can put it to a vote and you guys can decide on the final product.

I'll get my creative head on thsi evening and see what I can come up with!!

[Andrew]

What is the aim of the flyers / posters? Who do you want them aimed at etc....
When will they be used.

[Mrsmopp]

Think posters in parts departments etc....

'Ere Moppy, you don't happen to have the the correct Volvo fonts as truetypes do you? PM them to me if you have.

Or a PM from anyone else who has them...

[marshall_volvo]

gonna cost you to get it moppy! lol

[Mrsmopp]

gonna cost you to get it moppy! lol

Do I detect a hint of Bribery LOL?? (do you have them??)

[racer]

What do you reckon to this then?

OK it's "concept" stage, I used my car and a phone camera to get a rough together. What I really want is a "moody" shot of a black T5 with a black grill, but pretty much the same shot.

Pity someone backed into my bumper a while ago.

Here you go..

I rather like it :)

[Vikingxc]

I like it nice one racer could swap the photos and have a few different ones like an engine shot.

[racer]

'Ere Rich, could you send me a hi res front end shot of your car? Preferably with dark surroundings, theatrical smoke etc....

Seriously, I'd like to see this with a dark car .

[Vikingxc]

Pm me your email address and i will send a few now mate

[racer]

Version 2....
http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b221/Simon_J/VPCUK2.jpg

Still not quite right, but much better looking T5 !!

[Vikingxc]

I like it but then I would wouldn't I

[racer]

Thank heavens for broadband! ;)

[racer]

Version 3

Bit nearer the dark moody thing I was after, still needs playing with, but I'm tired now and the fluffy pillows are calling!

http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b221/Simon_J/VPCUK3.jpg

[Vikingxc]

Might be a little large that one mate.

[t5tart]

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b252/t5tart/VPCUK2.jpg

[racer]

I've no idea why the moody one came out so large! Obviously too tired.

Night all!!

[Justin]

Racer, looking good, some fading in area's and maybe a mist, keep em coming :)

[racer]

I'll have another go at Rich's front end tonight. Fnarr, fnarr...

[Mrsmopp]

Looking great! Perfect wording!!

Needs to have fog lights and main lights on tho ;)

x

[racer]

Latest version. Rich gets the number plate he's always wanted, I get nearer to that "dark, moody, darth vader, audi 'spider' ad, stealth, mystery, welcome to the dark side" feel I'm after, and Moppy gets her light fog lamp. Tried it with the headlights too, but this version looks much better.

The block colour bands are supposed to give it the feel of the Volvo brochures.

This is about as far as I can go with this. Photo shoot and someone who can drive photoshop / corel better than I can now required.

http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b221/Simon_J/VPCUK4b.jpg

Verdicts guys? :duck:

[wacky racer]

Very nice mate.
Well done.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

[marshall_volvo]

TO BE HONEST THE ONLY WORD I CAN THINK OF IS :anmflower PERFECT :anmflower I HONESTLY THINK THAT IT IS SPOT ON AND WOULD LOOK EXCELENT ON POSTERS, WALL PLANERS EVEN MUGS AND CUPS
WELL DONE

WAYNE

[Vikingxc]

Looks spot on to me mate well done

[Wobbly Dave]

Very "animal farm"

"All Volvos are made equal... but some are more equal than others"
I like it a lot.

Excellent.

Had a thought..

"Many would say 'Where are your pipe and slippers.."

"to which I replied 'I burned them off at last set of traffic lights'"

Its not great but I have my thinking hat on

[Vikingxc]

Racer any chance you can tell me where to find that font ive been looking for hours

[BlackBeast]

My attempt with the help of Viking to get it onto the site lol.

[stuAWD]

Nowt else to say is there! Racers says it all.

[RPM]

"All Volvos are made equal... but some are more equal than others"
I like it a lot.



Thats great!!!

[racer]

Well spotted Dave, the Orwell line was the original, but I felt the need to change it! :)

[Vikingxc]

Black beast sorry about the spelling mistake mate i will send an amended one in the morning.Whens the closing date i have an entry that just needs a bit of tweaking.

[Vikingxc]

Heres the replacement Blackbeast sorry mate

[JUDGENINJA]

Here's my silly efforts... I can replace the top line with anything....well almost anything....!!

[JUDGENINJA]

Number 3 is for moppy....... :bog:

[Vikingxc]

Well here is my effort what do you all think? Sorry for stealing your idea racer but it is only a bit of a joke.

[Tomcat]

Ooooo thats a bit close to the knuckle!........V. Funny though!

[JUDGENINJA]

LMAO - Very funny....I like it.... I think wobbleys car will go down in history...

[BlackBeast]

Brilliant!!!!! But I think the one you havent posted up yet is just pure genious Rich :)

[Andy]

LMAO @ Rich, quality!

Racer, PERFECT! ;)

[wacky racer]

Naughty! but very good. :lol:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

[racer]

How about...

[racer]

Still keep laughing at the original though. Nice one Rich, but next time your door bell goes, before you open the door, just make sure there's not something wobbly holding a large torque wrench out there.

[Andrew]

LOL - Wobblys gonna get ya

:mad111:

[wacky racer]

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

[chriskay]

Now that's unkind: but clever.

[t5owner]

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :D

Nice rich although i think wobblys gonna get you
for that

Cheers

stuart

[Wobbly Dave]

LMAO - Very funny....I like it.... I think wobbleys car will go down in history...
No it went down in a field - derrr!!

[Wobbly Dave]

I'm not proud. Using same pic...

"Volvo's were meant to fly - it's just the landing that's the problem"

"Work Hard. Play Hard. Land Hard"

"Any Landing you can walk away from is a good one"

"They said Volvo's arent fast....


We'd like to disagree"

[Mrsmopp]

Judge love the design - not sure about the wordings tho LOL

Lovin yer work but still need to see it with the lights on! :redface:

x

[racer]

> still need to see it with the lights on
No you don't. Honestly, it looks awful. If we're going to do a "lights on" version, we need a real photo of Rich's front end lit up in all it's glory. Using Corel to do the lights just doesn't work.
http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b221/Simon_J/VPCUK4c.jpg
IMHO!

Rich, you got a starburst filter?

[Mrsmopp]

Ahhh I see your point.

Rich, get some pics of your front end (ohh errr) with yer lights on!

x

[racer]

In the dark, with a starburst filter and some bounced fill-in flash.

(Don't want much do I? ) :)

[Waxworks]

My wife left me and took my volvo.............



God i miss my volvo!

"VPCUK - Performance in name and nature"

"VPCUK - we threw our flat caps away"

"VPCUK - Turbos big enough to blow your clothes off"

"VPCUK - an entertaining place to be"

"VPCUK - The sweede for speed"

So which category do I come under?? Euuughhhhhh!!

[Vikingxc]

Ok serious go now thanks for all the piccys people!

http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a199/vikingt5/Various/forum.jpg

[Vikingxc]

Two mistakes i know but im tired and will sort it tomorrow!

[racer]

Most excellent dude!

[Mrsmopp]

I love it!! :D

Racer isn't it about time you did me the "lights on" poster??

x

[racer]

Yes it is. Sorry Moppy, been a bit heavy on the work front this week and I've been poking about my engine bay all day today. I'll get the camera out tomorrow and have a bash myself.

[speedswede]

I've knocked up three. Here's one of them.

[Mrsmopp]

Nice slogan!


I will put the posters to a poll at the end of this week so anyone else wanting to take part get your posters up by Friday!

x

[racer]

I give up. I was going to do some photos of mine today, but I managed a "Gross Act of Stupidity" involving a stuck headlamp wiper and shutting the bonnet. So it is not particularly photogenic at the moment. That, and I don't have fog lamps anyway. Need a donated photo for the poster I think.

Rich?

[racer]

How about this then?

[Vikingxc]

I like that fantastic mate!

[marshall_volvo]

Me and olly think all the ideas are great maybe pick 12 cars to do a calander with (your choices) and the original design to do a yearly wall planner (i.e the one with lights and fog lights in colour as a background)
Just a thought peeps
Regards
Wayne

[Andrew]

How about this then?

PMSL

[marshall_volvo]

Its a idea and i will try and get a calendear into every T5 that comes through our workshop,Andrew yours should be in about october time i think

[Mrsmopp]

How about this then?

ROTFLMSO!!!! What you trying to say?? Quality ;)

Excellent. I love the implied "VPCUK - There's a lot of us" message. Nice one Rich. :)

[Vikingxc]

Still like Racers the best with a new photo will be spot on i havent had chance to take a photo yet with this accident crap.Will try and find a photo gimp for tomorrow night to assist in getting the right shot for Racer

[racer]

Thanks a lot Rich. I'd given up, on the grounds you had enough crap to worry about without some Northerner pestering you for photos! Please, please, don't get your camera run over!!!

[kdst5]
