I think an NZRoadsters one would be cool, MX5Forum could be mixed up with the club a bit easily.
Is that really an issue?
I like the idea but isn't 180mm x 120mm a little too big?
Agreed. I'm keen on something around 80x60

I like the third one...mainly because I drive an NB. Perhaps it would be good to have a similar style sticker for each generation of MX5? (NA, NB, NC)
Agree the car on the 1st sticker has a 'bemused' face though.

Hey man I like it too, We may end up getting a design for each generation (NA,NB,NC). Everyone has a different Idea as to what they want?
So If I come up with a few final design's we can vote on them as a whole?
Providing the Powers that be approve of them

i think the font needs to be about 20% bigger but i cant work out how to do that. I'm not that skilled.

Use the select tool (s key) and drag a box over the font. Then use the move selected pixels tool (m key) to manipulate the box

I lost the plot also. Hahaha.
Why dont we get a sticker that incorporates every generation of mx5 in a line up. I've seen it done somewhere that worked really well. They have fairly distinctive lines between generations, so should be easy to differentiate.

All keen for one myself...But have you checked with Zorruno that he does not mind,He does own the domain name and this site.
I would imagine he would like final say so.
Maybe those that are cleaver enough can throw a few more design idea's out there,and do a poll to choose one design.

Thats exactly what I meant! Nice work bro. Can you park the cars slightly tidier so they sit flat one the ground? Sorta looks like one side of them is jacked up when you line it up against the text underneath.

It looks like they're doing the Initial D 3 wheel manouver

(where the MX5 loses the race

)

Sweet glad the criteria was met haha, definately see what you mean by 3 wheeling, some things look awesome at 4am that don't in the morning
Have given it an update, can't seem to get the nc to sit right but I think that's the angle of the photo I'm using. Also cut the pillars to match the original NA and tidied it up a little.
edit: after working on these I'm leaning toward the first font, sort of suits the curves of the mx5's better than the sharpness of the other. just my 2c
