PM me what you have in mind, I'll throw them together for you. I did Miska's entry last month (which came in 2nd), and am willing to help again.

This one is simple:



This one is little more busy, but still kinda friendly




Any suggestions, comments? I am unsure which to submit!

I will remove whichever one we decide not to go with Thanks again Suzann!

I'd like to see a POW / MIA one or a support our troops badge... I've had one on my car since 9-11 and I have a 'mini' ribbon that is ready to go on my MINI when I get it, but I would substitute a grill badge if available.

I guess the "MINI" in a black circle is the problem. How much change from that is enough?
1. Different font?
2. Different color circle?

Since Im completely not artistically inclined, I think grille badges with the political party signs would be interesting.

Sorry, I can't sell that. In the words of BMW/MINI lawyers (not my words) your design is a "mutilation" of the copyrighted and trademarked MINI Wings logo and thus could cause "confusion in the marketplace " as to it's origins.

So...no MINI Wings. No MINI text logos, etc. You have about 10 hours to re-submit...

Yikes! I've been so behind in things and with my day job...well...anyway,
I've finally finished all the tweaks on the submitted art for winners and will get these prizes out next week.
Sorry for the delay..If they weren't already free...I'd make them free.
