[Design collecting/brainstorming/IC] Stickers !!
« on: Tue, 19 June 2012, 13:55:09 »
Hi,

What are your thoughts about running a GB to get some custom stickers made ?
Those stickers can then be used to decorate your laptop/keyboard, or anything else that comes into your mind ! ( CM storm user are probably interested :P)

But first, we need designs and ideas ! Of course the theme will be keyboards/mechkeyboards/geekhack !

I'll list some of my ideas, in the hope it will create some sort of brainstorming and we end up with some totally awesome idea/design !

- Obligatory Geekhack logo, and maybe a Geekhack member sort of thing !
- some set with the major brands? (but there are probably some copyright issues on those) and of course some derivates like « official filco fanboy » or other variants !
- « Clicky keyboards fan »
- Some sort of « Cherry MX blue user »/ « Buckling spring user » / etc… you get the idea.
- « Owned by a badass keyboard addict ! »

Let's see if this community is able to come up with something awesome !

In the end, the logos created could still be used as signature/avatar/wallpaper/whatever, if they don't make it to a sticker !

[Design collecting/brainstorming/IC] Stickers !!
« Reply #1 on: Tue, 19 June 2012, 14:08:28 »
Some ideas that just popped into my mind:

Imitating the tobacco warning labels: « Mechanical keyboards are extremely addicting and can be hazardous for your wallet »

« I'm a mechanical keyboard, ask my owner if you want to try me ! » logo to spread the holy message !

Some sort of pejorative sticker intended to be ninjasticked on other (non-mechanical) keyboards ! Or maybe anti-gamer message?

Are we talking keyboard stickers, bumper stickers and/or nail stickers?
I wouldn't mind a sticker or twenty for my keyboards.

keyboard sized? rknize was thinking maybe those vinyl stickons that are removable? my original thought was that we should make something that can cover all the ugly  company logos on *ahem* some of the newer cherry boards

Stickers that will fit on the outside frame of a keyboard. Stickers that will fit poker and Filco and choc mini etc. Just like I've seen someone use the small ish cherry sticker from some Korean group buy.
Can't be bothered to find the image while in my phone, but will find it when I get to a computer.

I would be down for some small stickers for keyboard body/spacebar like the Cherry ones also. Just do the typewriter text logo and call it good.

Is there something simpler we can use?  I'd like to do something like the Cherry badge, so we can stick it in front of the keyboard or between the home and arrow cluster.

hash sent me some cool logos a while ago. let me dig some of them up..

sticker robot has MOQ of 250 for rectangulars, but for small 1.5x1.5-ish sizes is pretty reasonably, maybe 80$ for a batch?

I looked into this awhile ago and it is definitely doable and should be done. There are even places that will make stickers out of metal which are quite cool.

here are a couple of options for an initial order. you'll recognize these as variations on the logo we use for the wiki, courtesy hashbaz :D

1102-0


1103-1


i'm partial to trying #1 initially as it can go almost anywhere and it should be super cheap to print even with stickerrobot

ok it looks like i can get 500 copies of the first image made at about a 1"x2" size for 90$ on stickerrobot. this is printed on clear vinyl so the image background will be transparent. that should fit pretty much every spot on a keyboard case i can think of putting a sticker on.

hash can generate this image at 600dpi (or whatever the highest res they'll take is) with any color combination we want. here are the ones he's already generated.

I like the old geekhack logo we used on the backspaces.  Any interest in using that logo on a chrome finished sticker? (I.e. like the cherry sticker)

Something like this would be sweet, imo it would look awkward having "fake" caps on a board full of em.

I'm not a huge fan of this^^, personally.  Nor of the wavy version that was printed on Backspaces a while back.

For my keyboards a Cherry logo or subdued GH logo would be awesome.  For things other than keyboards, I like the Cherry font mockups I gave mkawa and/or
MMB's banner.

Yeah, someone will need to clean it up.  I legit just cut out the letters from hash's Cherry font images and slapped em together lol.  I figured when we do the final design, stickerrobot will allow us to choose any color finishing anyway...

It is a transfer decal (also known as applique)... like dealerships put on the back of cars or people put on windows.

They are die-cut letters, images, etc with no background. This way you don't have a shiny-looking rectangle or circle. Much cleaner looking since every bit of text and images is a separate piece. It also can give some nice depth and look like a plastic emblem more than a "sticker".

a fellow gh'er just made me aware of this :o

i actually invested some time in this on my own before the site went down. between myself and another forum member i was going to go through on a couple dozen for a trial run, however since coming up with the new site we are i guess in limbo for a new logo.

i did go to a local graphics company and we worked on the old logo with the old colors (minus keyboard enthusiasts) :)..............which now appears to be old business. i still think it is better than the new logo's but it's what everybody wants i guess.........

to keep the quality it was pointed out i had to go with a larger format color printer that prints in a 54" roll versus a smaller die cut 4 color process thermal printer. the smallest sticker-decal with the quality we would want would have been .5 x 3.5........13 per row with margins or multiples of 13- a protective laminate was an option. it's basically just a transfer to the surface- basically like a decal you would put on glass vs a bumper sticker.

we also thought before we did anything it would have been appropriate to check with imav............, but since the forum never settled on a logo i just left it alone. we wanted to try to get the size small enough to fit above the arrows on a tenkeyless at least as well.

this would be a huge under taking who ever would take it on in a group buy. it was brought up that maybe if everybody was on-board to add a buck or something for a donation to go to maintaining the forum.

Looks pretty good to me. The letter size requirement looks like the challenge with what has been posted thus far.

Quote
Letters must be a minimum size of .3 inches with a stroke width of .0625 inches to maintain adhesive properties and efficient production.

Other reqs seem easy enough.

has anyone worked with DCS before? general idea of what you can get for a hundred bucks through them?

one nice thing about DCS is that there's no need to ship. plenty of people available that can go pick up from their location.

we don't particularly need full-color or any intricate shapes tbh. just a GH sticker dudes. stick it!

fwiw if i'd seen your thread (i still don't know where it is), i would have joined that one instead!

it occurred to me though, this sticker must have "geekhack.org" on it somewhere

hash is also going to produce a GH cherry cap sticker design with geekhack.org on the bottom. we could each produce one of the logos? :D

just a reminder that we're blocked on hash (out of town) and mmb for these. once i have a printable design from hash i will order a batch from stickerrobot. dangwang will order mmb's cleanup of his design as a diecut, chromed or whatever he chooses.

i will personally come up with ways to distribute my batch, hopefully as promotional items at no cost to those who receive the stickers (although we may ask for pics!).

dangwang can do what he chooses with his batch.

Would be in if it was the cherry clone stickers.  Those chrome ones look great.

Or do a phantom sticker set for our boards.

just perspective and the software distortion correction the iphone does. the sticker is properly centered

edit: ahahaha, actually you're right, this particular sticker is off-center. the rest look ok though.
