Hey Jason,
I don't know if this has been brought up before. I was thinking maybe we could do some Vinyl Logos (THE H2 SOURCE logo)from this site to place on our H2's back window or back side windows and make them only available to registered members. That way when we see a logo we know they are from the forum? Just an idea anyone else think this would be a good idea?

Just playing devil's advocate here guys, so don't flame me...
I think stickers are a great idea especially if it helps support this forum, by either bringing in new members or through donations made by existing members (just have to be careful not to end up rubbing GM/Hummer's legal department the wrong way though)
BUT...I seem to remember at least a couple of posts in the past where members who advertise on their H2 ended up getting hate mail from JQ Public about ruining the environment, supporting terrorists or some such nonsense. And it seems to me, as much as everyone hates trolls (and yes, I do too), that putting the URL on the stickers just might result in bringing in yet more trolls to this board. Not that I'm worried if that happens though...I know you guys can definitely hold your own if and when that happens!!!
...just letting you know to brace yourselves for a possible onslaught...you know the old saying "hope for the best, but plan for the worst"

The cutout version would definitely look good. I have several cutout "types" on the Escalade supporting my college. I am eagerly awaiting my H2 purchase so that I may attach "The H2 Source" sticker and show my support.

To make a long story short, changing the logo by 10% wouldn't be infringing.

JASON, GREAT IDEA!
HOW DIFFICULT OR EXPENSIVE WOULD IT BE IF WE WOULD SOMEHOW ADD EACH TRUCK'S SCREEN-NAME ON EACH LABEL?
THIS WAY IT WOULD BE COOL TO SEE WHO YOU ARE.
LET ME KNOW IF ANYONE HAS ANY IDEAS FOR THIS.
EITHER WAY, I'M IN!

Jason,
$4 bucks, I am in for a logo sticker. I would much rather have the H2 Club logo on the spare tire carrier with the H2 Club web address below the pic. Anyone have an embroidery shop or something to that effect that could do this kind of work?

Hummer Man, I have seen stickers with 3D images, or those types you can see the girl with cloth or without when you move from left to right, etc.. If we have that, other drivers will pop their eyes as they move they see a Hummer jumps out of the sticker, or see the girl in the H2 sticker sort of change appearance. The possibilities are endless. |

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Jason:
However I was previously contacted by GM/Hummer when I had the old store open (t-shirts, mugs, etc with the H2 Source Logo on them). They made me shut down the store becuase I was making money off their trademarks. Granted, I did make about $1-2/per item, just wanted you all to have the ability to get a shirt if you wanted.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Now why does this not surprise me that GM/Hummer would do something like this to the "little guy" 
I imagine that GM/Hummer didn't want anyone using their letter/number combination of "H2"? Sort of reminds me of when Kenny G filed suit against Garth Brooks because Garth Brooks was using the letter "g" in his logo  |

Guys,
First off, I appreciate everyone's enthusiasm! You are all a great bunch of people, no matter what the outsiders say!?!?!?!?
Kevin, I contacted a local sign shop here and they offered to do the decals at about $2.00/ea. Not sure of their quality or exact material they planned on using.
However, I have been contacted by two members of the forum (one being "Big C") and would much rather let get the business - as they know what us H2 owners expect. So I am currently waiting on them ...
If I can voice my opinion on the decals: I think user names are better left off, obviously the "by elcova" will be left off, but I think the URL should be listed on the decal - so others know how to join in on the fun.
Something like this ok with everyone (obviously needs to be perfected):

Jason,
I think it would be fine as you could give these to your members and you would not be charging for these stickers, so GM couldn't say you were making money and those that you give the stickers to, you can ask for a small donation to help the website. I think most of us being H2 owners are good for a donation to come to a awesome site like this. Keep Us Posted.

I love the sticker idea. This will prevent me from chasing around other H2's to see if they are part of the forum. It will also introduce more people to this resource. Count me in. Can you also make me an "Arnold for Governor" sticker, a "Don't follow me/I've got 91 octane/you can't keep up" sticker, and "SoCal Hummer Club" sticker?  |

I think what Jason was saying is that the stickers will be sold with a small profit to support the forum, not at the actual cost.
I'm in, I'll buy one, count me in. I'll not put it on my Hummer, I am not a sticker person, no sticker on my cars. I only have one see-thru round sticker on lower driver windshields, a country club sticker required for entry and parking. It will be an honor to support the forum.
