I'm not sure what you are looking for (Black & white or Color) but I do some graphic design work. I design everything from t-shirts to billboards. attached is a t-shirt design for our men's fishing trip to Rice Lake this year. I had to really shrink it to upload it. Hope the detail is still there. I'd love to do something for CDC in Michigan.
Hey COMM if you want to do something then by all means throw out some proofs/concepts. As you can see from the other boards, Kit from Missouri (my home state, BTW) has some really good stuff. I just wanted to help get the ball rolling with decals for us, I don't really care who does them if the prices are reasonable. I think at some point we need to make sure with C.COM that all is OK. May be some legal stuff, or at least a "go ahead" that probably needs to come from somebody in authority. Kit can you clarify this?
Life has many choices, eternity has two...choose wisely. Unapplied biblical truth is like unapplied paint...how many gallons do you have sittin' around? U.D.
Everything has been done out of the intent to help C.commers identify each other on the water. We haven't collected any money for any of the designs.
If COMM wants to do something. No Problemo.
The details of the fish has come up a few times before. We formed an animated crappie from a picture. It took over 10 hours to get it together with the dots on the fins. We opted to not dot the sides as it would have taken another 10 to get it done. The animation gives it motion that can be articulated to numerous position. All we could find for crappies is the dead fish pose that has no vibe. If you notice the B.A.S.S. emblem used on the ESPN tour doesn't really have the coloration or specific detail of a bass, but you can sense the motion with it flying out of the water. With our Crappie you know that jig is going to get slammed.
No hard feelings if you want a different design.
We could do something with the color though if you want to go with our design. Just PM me when you fellers make a decision.

Nothing makes a Crappie grow faster than almost being caught.
for kitt and comm, thanks for the intrest in coming up with a design for us mi dot com'ers very glad to see that nobody takes offence to different ideas or suggestions. lots of class, thanks.
and kit, thanks for enlightening (at least me) into all the hrs of work that goes into these designs.I hope enough from the mich board want decals to make it worth all the effort that goes into it.
thanks
I'm not in graphic design Kit, but my daughter dabbled in it for a few years and I DO know many hours are required. I very much appreciate your willingness to promote this great sport and I hope that whatever the outcome there will be no hard feelings. As I said, I only wanted to promote what I think is a great way to identify fellow C.COMer's. I will stay involved in this as much as neccessary to make it happen. COMM why don't you do like I suggested and throw out some ideas for us to look over and as in every great democracy we will all vote on what we like and take it from there? Anybody else have suggestions?

I'll work on a few. For the record we are referring to a bumper sticker size decal that can be put on a truck or vehicle right? In any event, I apologize for the delay in checking the forum. I've been getting my boat ready for my trip to Canada. Look for some designs this week though.
