Yeah but:

No clothes = even hotter!

Dark Please

I never wear my 2006 MOTD shirt because it's baby blue - ick. Black, blue - remember logos pop on dark coloured shirts - not so much on mediocre tampon box colours.

Update- The shirt will be Navy Blue.

LOGO- I am thinking of having the generic MINI on a Dragon like twisty road.

What do you think about a slogan on the shirt? Should there be one? I came up with "MINIs on the Dragon"- Got more curves than a Summer Intern.

Anything is open now. I want to get this ball rolling so than I can come up with a price for everyone and get them to us before the event and perhaps Will leaving.

BTW, don't forget to put the DCMM logo somewhere.

DCMM logo on the side of the MINI. Maybe show a driver and passenger inside the MINI with huge grins on their faces, and the passenger holding onto the "oh s$%t" handle.

Some quick ideas for slogans:

"MOTD - get taken for a ride... a long way from Congress!"
"MOTD... bending more than a politician watching the polls"
"MOTD - escape the hot air in DC with a thrilling mountain run"
"MOTD - more twists than a political spin machine"

Anyway... quick ideas. I didn't say they were good!

I like the summer intern thing I would love to wear that one to work or when I goto visit my old school (which I do before all our big rivalry games to get the tickets a little cheaper).

My 2 cents-
Where the summer intern line might make me smile if I saw it somewhere it is not some thing I would wear. I would prefer a tag line that was witty, intelligent and showed a little class. Actually, a good graphic would be all the design really needs. The words are just an add-on.

Ok, so a nice graphic....Ok...Ideas???? Craig is desiging WAY too many this year and he is all tapped out for the idea machine. It is up to us to think of...So lets hear it. What are your ideas?
We know the color aleady. That isn't going to change, so no more suggestions of colors, please. I would like to hear ideas for designs now, so we can get this moving!

Why not? I am working on good design...Just have to see if I can draw it out. My crafty skills don't really do much drawing. Attempting to figure out some of my new MAC programs...

Change a US129 sign to read DCMM129, add a curve sign, and viola!

Simple is better.
