  • can anyone help with ideas for van magnetics please?

    Posted by Terry Gall on 1 March 2005 at 20:41

    Hi everyone.

    Customer wants magnetic panels on van panels so he can remove weekends. Logo on one panel and phone numbers etc on the other. Also he wants same details on reverse. Anyone got any better ideas. Has to be able to be vinyl cut.

    Cheers

    Terry 😕 😕

    Considering you’re limited to working within the van panels because of the magnetics, I think thats a pretty splendid design as it is.

    Do an outline on them with a different color vinyl?

    Terry, I agree with Dewi, design looks good …… considering that you are limited due to using magnetic panels. Looks ok to me 😀

    hmm…
    Well I agree with Dewi that it looks fine how it is.
    Maybe a red line under the numbers or something to give it some contrast.

    2 observations:
    Why would someone need a Fax # on a van,
    and why must the word “Telephone” be written out?
    (The brackets around the prefix bug me too, but I’ll shut up now)
    Love…..Jill

    Although fax numbers are not as common as they used to be, they are still a usefull way to send info, mainly junk, so if you like junk why not put the number on the van?
    Phone numbers, the international format +01(1234)123456 is the correct way to do it, the area code is separated in brackets to inform Which area the number is in. Nothing wrong with that.
