The only reason we are adding the www. is to lengthen the image. The windshield banner cannot be more than 6" tall. If you visualize that image 6" tall it wouldn't be very wide and would not make a good windshield banner.

Centered in the rear window however, would look awesome!

oh, so this is not supposed to be designed for the rear 1/4 window (sorry, don't know what the actual term is). : )

Correct. The image you quoted (without the www.) is what'* being used for the mini decal

The design is great, but the imaging that produced it makes it too dirty for a vinyl cutter to use it. If you can see flaws in it at 1"x3'. imagine how that will be at say 6"x28". I have to have a full sized image that is near flawless for the vinyl cutter to produce a quality windshield banner. Copy the image and paste it into MS Paint. Chose zoom 6x'* and you will see. I'll gong to print what you made so far Stealth and take it to my Youth Group Meeting tonight and see if my Pastor can give me a ball park figure from it.

Did everyone just completely skip over the one I just posted as if it didn't exist? I'm not sayin use it, but it allows us to use WWW instead of upside down M'* which look ridiculous unless someone wants to find the font the designer used. I have the font, and I have the PSD file which is a vector image so you can blow it up to 50 feet and it will still be perfectly sharp. I was kinda hoping someone would at least be able to use part of it, especially considering the piston will make it look pretty out of place as a windshield banner given the height.

Naw, I didn't gaze over it X. Just trying to do alot elsewhere and Stealth hasn't been back on. Yes that is exactly what I am looking for the front windshield. And in vector form. If you can email it to me the Largest possible size of that in .ai file, I will use it. neither I nor the cutter can convert PSD

PM me with your e-mail address and I'll get you everythin I possibly can. Does the spacing and the size of the font work? I can adjust spacing between specific letters however you want it.

I would like it 5.5 inches high, and spaced for 32 min/36 max inches across. Gotta scoot to my meeting. I'll call you after I get back, 9ish?
