Ok,
Got to go and run with this or I won't be able to get them done in time for the rally.
Here would be the finalized versions of the patch and sticker.
The patch was cleaned up. First, because after talking to close friends of John, it was mentioned that we didn't really need all the hype of the patch. Plus, the process of making a patch is not like printing and a lot of the details are lost.
The sticker has pretty much all things associated between John and the ba.com site. I have more freedom because of the printing process so that things can be razor sharp. The dog collar is gone... I get attached to some ideas I come up with and try to stick with it even though it doesn't work... but I do listen to reason sometimes and well... it's gone!
Also, the sticker is round with a grey background. I'm afraid that the smaller letters and details would be a pain to apply and make sure they would transfer well to wherever you want to stick it. The extra squared grey back is there so you can make out the sticker on ba.com white background.
There you have it.
You have a choice. If you prefer something simple, then the patch it is. If you want to place all those memories together, then the sticker has them all (well, not all of course!)
I'm waiting on sticker prices (should be cheap) but I got a quote for patches. Getting 100 done would be $1.70us each (plus shipping). Is that a good price or is there someone in the US that can get better?
I don't mind coming up with the money up front. Depending on when I can get them in my hands, I could handle the shipping to you. If the timeframe is too short, I could just send a whole shipment to someone present at the rally and they could be distributed there.
