lol, y'all so crazy!

Anyway, I think any colour that's legible, but also discrete would be good,

How do you intend to make them duvel? cos if you're gonna get them pro done, I don't mind shelling out a few quid to chuck in the pot, or i could have a word with a few of my contacts to see what we could get on a multi-order, type thing. I'm sure i know some people in the signage buisness.

With what I said earlier about letter on carrier film looking good, it only dawn on me at a resonable hour today, that Naish only has five letters, making it a easier!!! probably wouldn't work quite as well for www.volvo300mania.com!!!

Duvel, what if you make them without the "www" part, just "volvo300mania.com"? It's shorter, easier to read and it looks way better. But that's just me...

Yeah, why not!

One advantage with the "www" is that we can see immediately that the sticker deals with a website... Without reading the whole sticker.

I think so, I'll probably be able to get a decent price in "bulk", I'll make some calls in the morning and get some idea on quotes
