Thanks! He was kind of an ugly kitten, but he sure grew out of it. (and grew and grew and grew
)
I have to thank MINI_Bee for the badge. Another one of his great designs.

Looks very nice. Illustrator is a bit of a learning curve, but you can make some great stuff with it.

Looks great Hubs.
I'd watch your scaling in Illustrator. Looks like your MINI logo got squished.
If you're manually scaling by dragging in the corners of your object, click and hold the 'shift' key and it'll keep the vertical locked with the horizontal.

DD , thanks for the tip, The problem is to remember everything. At times I do things correctly and other times , well I just forget. lol
Just so many options . Hard to keep track.
I just had the hardest time getting my type to invert for the + 40 mpg ,, Finally figured to use - pts in character pull out on the window panels.

I'm thinking about doing a holiday badge to give to my trading friends (depending on my budget - and once I've finished helping out Michael on his special project).
Would any of you like to receive one if I get them produced?

I'd like one, but I probably won't have anything to trade.

Still working on the holiday badge. Post here if you want one (limited quantities). No trade. It's my gift to my badge friends.
