EpicSki Stickers -- design help needed!

post #1 of 486
Thread Starter 

We need to order some new stickers. Here's what we have so far:

What do you think of the design?

 

Do we need a catchier slogan? I saw a sticker the other day that I wanted on the spot. It said, "Don't hate me because I'm beautiful. Hate me because I rip." Could we come up with something fun like that for EpicSki? 

 

Looking for ideas, inspiration, anything to get me off dead center on this project. Thanks!

Like the look but the slogan could use some spicing up IMO.  Not TGR-esque spice, but something a bit more catchy.  Perhaps a fave quote from a movie or from the forums here?  I've seen some amazing, witty quotes in the forums over the last 6 months.  Just have to find them.

 

Maybe a slogan contest?  Winner gets free stickers and a ballcap!

OK, some serious ones:

Where winter is never long enough

 

Site of the most in depth winter gear, technique, and travel discussions

 

A welcome change in online discussion communities.

As others have said, I like the logo, but the slogan could be better.  Here is my first ideas for a different slogan, I'm sure my brain will come up with a couple of more after I've had some time to think about it.

 

      "Where skiers go for advice, reviews, and camaraderie" 

       "If you can ski it, we can talk about it"

I can see why the slogan is what it is, because its been the slogan from the beginning.  

 

Perhaps it can be kept with a sub slogan under it like 

 

the change you're looking for.

By and large.....it's not.

I'd try to avoid the word "skiing" to be more inclusive.

do you wear a helmet?

post #10 of 486

How small/large are the stickers?  Will you create a small one for helmets?

That would cause some serious confusion (i.e. "change for a nickel?")

 

I do agree the slogan on the sticker needs to be more fun / playful.

 

Also, how about some Gaper Boy stickers?  If Phil signs off on it, of course.

Okay, that's lame . . . I'll think on it some more.

I giggled like a young schoolgirl at both of these!

 

A good variation might be "Epic - The Kindler and Gentler TGR" or "TGR...Without the Pesky Profanity."

Definitely a little vanilla for a sticker. The slogan could definitely be catchier. It's good for the site itself, but doesn't really capture one's attention.

 

Love "Got Helmet," though that's probably more of an inside joke.

 

How about EPICSKI..."Where you'll never be called a JONG." - OR -

 

- If you can ski it, we can argue about it.

 

-Guns, helmets and public policy...and that's just our general forum

 

Some serious ideas:

 

- Where the snow never stops falling (a tweak of CRG's idea)

 

- Whackin' bush since [year Epic started or year the infamous member joined] (Part inside joke, part double entendre)

 

- The Web's 3-Foot Powder Morning

Nice, didn't even think of it that way, like the two-headed interpretation.

 

Toward that same end, I offer the simpler

 

Get Snowed.

And if you like sardines? 

 

How about "a place to explore your inner-gaper", "Fat ski's suck", "Bogner or Spyder?", "I'm an expert but can't ski bumps", "powder sucks" "where's the lodge" "I love ski valets"   or "rocker is a fad" biggrin.gif
