Great Idea I thinkMadKaw wrote:I think they'd want to run a typical plate for a bulk run.

Sorry double post but Ive just been messing around with it.
For the plate frames it might be better (in my opinion) to edit the logo.

Placing a dark rider on a dark background even with a white outline looks a bit goofy. So the logo cant go on dead as it is.
Also the size of the text could be a problem for printing, I scaled the logo to match the size of the demo plate and if its even only partially an accurate simulation the "Sportsbike Riders Club" wont be legibile.
If you place the text elsewhere (thus being able to make it larger then you would by using the standard logo) it's not as much of a problem.
So what I'd suggest is first is print a white layer onto the bottom of the frame, then print the image of the rider and finally print the text.
Something simillar like what Ive done, just my opinion anyway.
Edit: rehosted image. + Fixed text.

Just an alternative to the triangle edges.

Looks good. I'd suggest we change the black rider and text outline to white so the background can remain black.. Thats what we have done with the t-shirts..
Dunno if they can use it, I'll see what Glen says, as its his baby..

This is with a white outline of text and rider.

If you speak to your contact would you be able to ask whats the optimal resolution they want to use to print onto the frames?
Cause I can scale that stuff to any size they need, also the text can be made into a transperant image, so even if they dont have the font to print I can send an image of the text on a transperant background.
To do what I just posted they'd need to print the image of the rider with the white outline over the frame and then the text image over that I think.
Edit.

Black text outline

No text outline
