BMI New Colors?

[bob58o]

Chancer complained about shipping prices so much....
They changed their colors.

Blue and Orange.
Round Stuff.
White Letters
The word Karts.
The Letter "I"

"DIY" vs "BMI"




A little too close for my liking.
Unless they are giving free shipping to our Members.

Roughly the same, nearly identical italicized font as well...

Plagiarism! Trademark infringement!!!

Imitation is the highest form of Flattery!

Look how many guys suddenly have Alligator seats on their projects!

I buy a ton of parts from them for the winches. I am not a fan of the site redesign.

I know, let's steal their gear design and encircle our logo with it--give it some teeth.

Let's vote on it, shall we? We can likewise vote on the number of teeth it should have. Let's go.

 

[chancer]

I vote YES on Adding teeth to the DIY logo.
I think 60 tooth.

Apart from Sup, none of you guys were around when we redesigned the site logo so, you have no idea how long the process took, seriously, it was like breeding elephants...

Somehow, I don't think it's gonna change again any time soon...

 

[chancer]

Nope. New logo was Feb 2014. I was here!

Look ma... no teeth!

I wouldn't want teeth onthe DIYGK-Logo .. would make it look like a round postage stamp
keep in mind that we have a two spoke center (steering-wheel'ish)
I have no teeth on my steering wheel... you?

teeth marks maybe...

 

[Hellion]

Think about it--how much of our discourse revolves around gears and sprockets? A lot.

I am getting my inspiration from grille badges and a brief search shows nice examples. Found some specimens and even one or two our Deutsche friend might agree with (not that his acquiescence matters at all since he's a moderator and should therefore be impartial)...

While the ADAC one looks to be an original.. the Marcedes one is clearly NOT

(they never had a sprocket, never will have..) that thing is of chinese descent
and can be had with about any logo inside at alibaba.

The ONLY 'old' badge that comes with teeth like that that I am aware of is the Rotary badge,
which is a six spoked keyed sprocket.

Anywhoo.. impartial (where possible) as a moderator..
I still get the same vote as a user as anyone else ... NONE!

Robert has a vote and he might or might not listen to any of us as per HIS choice

Just to be clear, I never said DIYGK should change the logo.

I like it, even if the colors aren't Predator Black and Red! LOL

I have seen Zombie Response Vehicle stickers and never knew what that was.
