Dave,

I like the design on #2 better. But how do you get the color of the logo to blend in better? Just wondering. I like the idea of a special flag for our group, good idea.

Best Regards,
Ron

Flag 1 for me. The other looks nice, but reminds me of the bandanna Maggie gets every time she goes to the vet.

I like #1, but having said that, I think both look a little too tall. Sort of out of proportion to what a flag should be, but that's just my opinion. :)

Number 1 is nice, What if the logo were rotated 90 degree on the material. Would that put it more in the traditional layout that Steve H mentions?

As far as color, like Ron mentions, any color that compliments the logo is good by me.


Nice job guys! :thumbsup: :applause:

#1. What if it was laid out like a burgee instead of a flag? I like burgees. I like saying it too. Bur-gee. BUR-Geeeeee.

Think I like #1 also Dave. Color isn't that important as long as the logo 'stands out' but I'd also prefer a rectangular shape rather than square. #2 just looks too cluttered/busy ;)

hmmmm... either one... but on #2 I would suggest not rounding the corners of the logo part, make it square to match the square/straight lines in the design. and if it could fill that center square or at least rotate it.

Are there any other bandana choices? Color is fine, but what about tie dyed or something with an american flag kind of coloring (note necessarily 'the flag' )

I know .... too many choices are not a good thing.

...#1...when I did up the flags for the LCG, I found that using the printed bandanas was just way to busy...also, lose the white background, keep all of the graphics as a line drawing and allow the flag color to show thru...if it can be done so that it is in 1(preferably) or no more than 2 colors, it makes having the silkscreen done, both simpler and cheaper.....

I think a burgee is the triangle shaped flag flown on the top of sailing ships? Am I even close Steve?

OKay, I've adjusted the background color to closely match the color of the bandana. I'll see what I can do to make it more rectangular. I agree that #2 is too busy, but Cindy insisted on trying it.

Being color blind the color isn't that big of a deal for me. I do like #1 better. The logo would look better if rotated 90 degrees. The design in #2 is just too busy.

Great idea on the flag. :thumbsup:

I like # 1 also. Now I need to make a flag pole/holder for the trailer.
