TigeOwners.com Flags

[da.bell]

Let's start a discussion about a purchase of such flags.

We have:

1) 24 inch by 16 inch flag
2) TigeOwners.com silk screened on the flag
3) able to have User Name printed on it.

anything else?

Color? White?

[CP3]

you have those now to buy?
group buy???? :D


EDIT
Black background
Avatars printable too?

[da.bell]

Group buy... Was suggested in another thread. Thought I would bring it out into the public a little. :D

[G-MONEY]

Black background
TigeOwners in White

[CP3]

tigeowner in the color it is at the very top of this page

[G-MONEY]

We should bribe the same member that did the tige towels.......;)

[da.bell]

I think XPJim is looking at who would make them.

[dogbert]

Awesome idea, I'm in!

[Timmy!]

I vote for a bright orange version as well for those of us who are required to use a flag for skier down/rope in the water. I think that would be cool too!

[yearroundboarder]

Bright Orange is the ticket. Easy to spot and mult-purpose. SWEET:cool:

[chpthril]

White w/black lettering

Black w/white lettering

Blue w/white lettering

This would be my vote :ro:

[Razzman]

Look at it this way, you can get an orange flag anywhere and you'll only fly your orange flag when a rider is down. A truly custom flag can be flown at all times from the tower, the bimini or a custom flag holder.

[spharis]

http://www.united-states-flag.com/diprcu2x3ftf.html
http://www.flagco.com/flags/customflags/screen/light_on_dark.shtml

Pricing seems about the same. It is gonna be much cheaper for a single color screen print (white) vs a digital print gradient like the logo.

If you can get 25, the 2x3 flags are only $30 at that point.

[mtnsmith]

I would be in for it. I have not looked in a while, but if embroidered is not much more, then I would highly suggest that. The silk screening would not last as long, but I would still be in for it. Chp's suggestions on colors are the same as mine.
My parents have had some burgees made for their boat owner's group, but considering the cheap versions of their boat are $450,000, cost was really not an option. They had this place make them.
www.burgeeshoppe.com

[mtnsmith]

I take it back about the embroidery, the big problem would be cost. To not have the letters reversed on one side, the flag would have to be double layered, not cheap. Back to the silk screen:ro:

[CP3]

how are we going to go about mounting these thing to our boats??
I want mine to fly high and be big

GOTTA REPRESENT:D

[anhaney]

Red, White, and Blue since the boat is made in USA Red Flag Blue Trim or oposite and White easy to read letters.:D

[mtnsmith]

I will probably put mine on the tower uprights somehow, right next to the tower mounted bottle opener:D Or I might try to figure out some sort of flag pole on top of the tower.

[billspin]

Here is one way to mount them. http://www.proflighttowers.com/TowerAccessories/BilletFlagHolder.html

[chpthril]

I've got 2 flags mounted to the bimini support poles right now using some plastic stern lamp pole flag clips

[CP3]

Here is one way to mount them. http://www.proflighttowers.com/TowerAccessories/BilletFlagHolder.html

I think you would need something a littl beefier for a 2x3 foot flag and something that will hold it in as you drive

[chpthril]

I'm thinking that we go with a std 12x18 boat flag :02:

[CP3]

We need a bigger size too that. I want something that I can sit at the sandbar and fly high so everyone can see:D

[chpthril]

:ro: :ro: :ro: :bo:

[mtnsmith]

I was thinking zip ties on the tower uprights, cheap and effective. That or Chris Craft style and put a flag pole mount on the bow.

[da.bell]

I'm thinking that we go with a std 12x18 boat flag :02:

I am liking those dimensions. Too much small and you can't read the flag and too much bigger you will have a bigger mount.

[da.bell]

We need a bigger size too that. I want something that I can sit at the sandbar and fly high so everyone can see:D

How about a huge 4' x 5' that gets mailed around to specific people on this website. That way they can fly it high during reunions. :)

[CP3]

how much would one like that cost???

[wannabewakeboarder]

I think we should get some tigeowners shirts like Matts prop/tigeowners.com logo and a good tige picture in the background

[da.bell]

how much would one like that cost???

I don't know but I would hope a few would go in together on this. Let's say Dog, Chp, Dom, me, CP3, Razz, Moki, Nick, ... all pitch in and corresponde between each other about where the flag is. It gets mailed on our own dime or Tige's to the various reunions. After the reunion is done, it gets mailed to the next one. It's like free advertising... Thoughts???

[wannabewakeboarder]

I will pitch in a few bucks if needed. Support a good cause???:D

[CP3]

what flag did dom order?

[da.bell]

what flag did dom order?

He didn't order one....

[CP3]

I thought he had like two flag and flag holders???....

[wannabewakeboarder]

For OU..oaklahoma univ. i think

[da.bell]

Yes and Tige. I thought you asked if he bought one with based on this idea.....

[CP3]

where did he get the tige flag?

[da.bell]

:ot: eBay from what I remember.

I'd just order one for our reunion here in Austin.

[sparky216]

I LOVE the ORANGE and BLACK idea......maybe we could super-impose a Beaver perhaps behind the Tige logo?????;)



Anyway I'd be interested whatever color/font scheme ya'll come up with

[anhaney]

I say we super impose a COUGAR behind it. :D JK. But I am a fan of Cougars, Utes, and Trojans.

[TigeDuner]

How about a silloette of Bam Bam behind the logo??

[CP3]

How about a silloette of Bam Bam behind the logo??

Now there is an idea I can work with ha

[da.bell]

Well, the easiest and probably cheapest way to get this done would be white background with the gray lettering as show on the image on the top of the page.

Adding a name or a place for the name will only add more stuff to the design.

So, here is a suggestion ready for veto'ing. :D

-----------------------------------
White Flag 18 inches by 24 inches
Gray Image centered onto the flag.
-----------------------------------

Simple but classy. :D

I agree but run the image at an angle from top corner to bottom corner. It adds a little flair.

PM sent....

[xpjim1]

Have not found my add yet. When you don't need something then they are everywhere:(

I am thinking 16 x 24 flag.
Was going to have the company show from top to bottom and a straight across. Most inexpensive is solid colors. Like white print on black flag.

I have asked Matt for the artwork so I can start getting quotes.

Are screen names a must? Adds to the cost

[G-MONEY]

NO.....
Just tigeowners....:02:

Funny, I just PM'd Matt asking if this type of thing would be available in the "Tige Owners Gear" area of this site. I am hoping to see if Matt or the owners of this site can purchase the flags and have them available as gear.

I don't need the user name on the flag. The flags are there to start the communication within the Tige family and to get this site's name out for others to join. :D

[hooscal15]

Can you add the towels also, those were nice

[G-MONEY]

I think its a great idea to put the flags in the Tige Owners Gear area of this site. That was it wont be one time deal and new owners to the site can get them at any time.

[Domsz06]

i'll buy what ever, but I would really like to get one just like my tige one. It's just like the tige one's they used at the bluewater reunion. It's like 3x2 feet or maybe 3x4 feet, something that flies big, and you can see and represent. I could fly it all the time and it would rock!

[dogbert]

I'm against any kind of beastiality...sorry no cougars or beavers.

[TigeDuner]

No animals, just Bam Bam and the logo. She is our logo...:) she has her own thread.:)

[TeamAllen]

Wow! You guys really took this idea and moved it along. I just got back from the lake and noticed some pirate flags on a few boats. The black with white would stand out the most. I think smaller in size is better. My original idea was more that other Tigéowners.com readers would recognize it instantly and know they are a team player. Not so much for advertising. I do think there would be some benefit there though. Some guy says, "Hey, I saw these Tigés with these same colored flags. Where do I get one of those"? At the reunions is the only place you would want your screen name on it.

My original thought was like a green color (maybe like an army/kaki). I thought the unique color would be the most identifying thing. I do kije the black whit thing like I mentioned above. Good job Jim.

[dogbert]

Alternatively, you could put screen names on a sticker by your driver's side window.

[da.bell]

Flag color and what they mean:

Blue: often represents freedom, vigilance, perseverance, justice, prosperity, peace, and/or patriotism.

White: often represents peace, purity, mountain snow, and/or innocence. A simple white flag represents surrender.

Red: in flags often represents courage, revolution, hardiness, blood, and/or valor.

Green: can symbolize the Earth, agriculture, fertility, and/or the Muslim religion.

Yellow/Gold: often represents the sun, wealth, and/or justice.

Black: often represents determination, ethnic heritage, and/or defeating one's enemies.

[Domsz06]

I like the idea too with the names on the window

[da.bell]

Dom, what flag color is the Tige flag you have?

[Domsz06]

it's black and white.

I like that idea but I would rather just personalize my flag bc Im not one to put any type of sticker on my boat

[Domsz06]

i have some on my windows, but that is it. Just some of what I have in my boat, som free advertising

[xpjim1]

Matt is going to send me the logo file this weekend. I will send it out for estimates and design.

I am going to get prices on 12 x 18 and 16 x 24. The logo is long so I am thinking the bigger flag but we will see once the flag companies get back to me.

[da.bell]

XP, someone mentioned that they would like to see the logo go on a slant.

[xpjim1]

I saw that. I am going to ask for designs on a slant, straight, etc. Then we can vote on what we want. I have a few other variations but will not know until I get the logo.

[Domsz06]

xp, not to complicate this more, but could you also see what a flag would cost that was the size of my tige banner i have? Even if I'm the only one buying it I would really like that option.

Thanks.

Actually I don't. I have a Tige owners banner. I forgot that I had it. I won it at a Tige reunion a few years back. I need to remember to bring it this time.

I'm in, now I just gotta figure out how I'm going to fly that baby from my boat. One idea I had was some sort of rod holder mounted to my tower...maybe use a cheap beefy saltwater rod for the pole. Any thoughts?

[CP3]

whoever the 6 are need to have a vote on colors

Airhead makes one i just saw recently. The only place i could find a good picture of it is Target of all places! :eek: Anyway it might work and i've seen it around $10 bucks cheaper.

Somehow I don't think it's gonna hold a 4'x6' flag while I'm driving down the lake. :(

[Razzman]

I was thinking the same thing, but look at the construction. You could buy an appropriate sized clamp from somebody like DYI WAKE (http://www.diywake.com/shop/shopdisplayproducts.asp?id=72&cat=Clamps) and then have a section of aluminum tubing welded right to it. Paint or polish and your good to go.

I just ziptie mine it to the side of the tower.

[dogbert]

Ok, but we're talking a pretty big flag here. If it were only 2'x4' I could see it, but it's 3x the size of it.

Fly them with the flag poles from Overtons that fit into your nav. light receptical

Once again, you are the man with the plan! I'm on board with Dom's suggestion.

[Domsz06]

the only problem is the flag poles are still on back order. HOWEVER I have had them before and they work GREAT! I'm adding a second receiptical to my port side so I can fly two flags:) They extend to up to 6 feet, so you can fly any size flag, they work great, just don't try to use them for a balance or hand rail:) don't ask!

Sorry guys. Work got a little hectic and I am racking up some frequent flyer miles. This kind of got put on the back burner.

I have requested quotes on a very simple 12 x 18 and 16 x 24 inch flag with the tigeowners.com straight across and diaganolly. I have been playing phone tag with the company as I do not have much free time. If someone wants to take charge I would appreciate it.

Heading back to the hotel

Sounds familar to what I do. I will be back on the planes in a week. No fun. although I always get the first class upgrade that is good. Makes it a little more worth doing.

[CP3]

I have tried to take over with the big flags

[CP3]

Email from the flag lady yesterday:
Dear Clark
We need to have the artwork as an EPS or AI file to work with. For your questions we can make the flags in 12 days we prefer to send all together and you can order more and yes the price will go down.



Please tell me the quantity and I’ll quote you.
thanks


....anyone know how to get the artwork in tha format?

[dogbert]

It's an Adobe Illustrator file format. Many of the drawing packages, like Corel Draw allow you to create these using their Save As function.

[Razzman]

CP3, send me the file if you want and i can save to an *.eps file for you.

[da.bell]

I am not sure CP3 has the file unless Matt sent it to him. However, I know Matt sent the file to XPJim. CP3 might have the interent version of the image and the quality of that image isn't as good as Matt has. :02:

CP3??????????

[spharis]

EPS = encapsulated post script
The file contains vectors to determine the shape and color of the artwork.

AI = Adobe Illustrator file
This is Adobe's version of an EPS. It contains some data readable by vector drawing tools in programs, but can also contain extra data useable in Adobe Illustrator and other apps.

You cannot take a raster image (an image that is built using colored pixel data....IE gif, jpg, psd, etc, etc) an export out a useable vector image file. The file will have the .eps or .ai extension, but the data required will not be there. It will basically be a screenshot of artificial path data, usually of the outline.

There are some programs that can trace a raster image (flash can do it limited, and will require some cleanup) A vector program must have the path data available. Nearly all print houses require the path data (EPS, AI, DWG, etc) to be able to get their printing program to read the file. If you can find an old school silk screener, they can do it without the vector data using an emulsion screen and UV. I used to do this at a print shop I worked at.

If you cannot supply the vector artwork, you need to pay to have a graphic designer redraw the image logo and convert the text data to paths (this is why the print houses always want to upcharge you for not having compatible artwork). The chrome effect on the tigeowners.com logo looks like it is a raster blend and is probably not path data. That is probably not required for the single color printing we are having done though. It could be recreated in vector info, but for a printer to get the blend look, it would require them to modify it to work with the type of printer software they have available (some do gradients differently). I would offer to redraw it, but I don't have time right now. Maybe if it isn't ready when I return form my trip I can see if it still needs to be done.

Matt, if you are following this and need to logo redone in illustrator or freehand, what typeface did you use for the tigeowners.com text?

[TeamAllen]

It seems there are two camps on the size. I think it is good to have two sizes available both large and small.

[dogbert]

I'm good with either.

[Domsz06]

i'll buy one of both, to help out.

[CP3]

I guess I need matt or someone to send me the right or better file. I just got the one off the internet

[Domsz06]

hey cp3, send me all the flags and I'll take care of shipping to everyone that pays up front, if you don't pay upfront then you get charged shipping.

I am probably in, but need to see a pic first. And a price.

[da.bell]

I am in for a small flag but would like to see a pic first. The colors are good IMO.

[CP3]

Ill get a pic to yall as soon as she sends me one back

[Domsz06]

ok, sounds good to me, as long as the flag looks good I'll buy big and small, just hope your still getting big!

[Domsz06]

just bringing it back.

[TigeDuner]

I am in for a small flag but would like to see a pic first. The colors are good IMO.

Ditto.

[Domsz06]

any info on these xp or cp3

[chpthril]

CP3 emailed my the proofs from the printer but the PDF is too large to up-load. any help on how to reduce the size of the PDF, or "save as image" or what else can I do to post it. :confused:

[chpthril]

Ok, I think I figured something out

[CP3]

thanks buddy

[dogbert]

I vote for the 1st one with the prop.

[TigeDuner]

Tough call. I like the prop but I also like the larger lettering. Either one is great for me.

[talltigeguy]

Tough call. I like the prop but I also like the larger lettering. Either one is great for me.

Agreed!

[da.bell]

I like the one without the prop.

Bigger letters = Getting this site known and Tige

[evil0ne]

When you decide on a price, can you start a new thread that will be a sticky?

[anhaney]

It would be good if we could do the bigger lettering with the prop. I like them both so either one will work.

[mtnsmith]

I like the prop on the flag, for what it counts. I still wish I hadn't goofed up on ordering the towels.:mad:

[TeamAllen]

What if the lettering w/out logo) went diagonally so it maintains the larger font size and the logo went in the upper left or lower right of the flag?
Does that make sense? Kind of like the diver down flag. Maybe I can have my son work up something art wise.

[TeamAllen]

Thanks to my son, I'll try and post it up. Maybe a little crude, but you get the idea.

[xpjim1]

OK so back in town and the flag Company I went to is $27.50 per flag with a min order of 15. There flags are more expensive because they digitally print each side then sew them together. They will not do design work until we commit and place a deposit.


CP3 company appears to be a better choice as they will print on the same material and I have asked him to get a price on the 12 x 18.

TeamAllen , Matt would need to approve the deviation from the logo. I had the same idea but with the prop in the upper and lower corner. 2 props. Can your son mock one up like that.

I cannot find the company who made flags for me the last time, they were reasonable about 7 years ago

[TeamAllen]

Like this?

[da.bell]

I like TeamAllen's suggestion. The props are specific to Tige IMO and the lettering is big. I don't think we will have that much of an issue with Tige and Matt approving that. :02:

[xpjim1]

Thanks TeamAllen

I like them all. My 1st choice would be the slanted with 2 props. 2nd choice is straight across with no prop

[Domsz06]

i like the slant with two props, and would buy a large one and a small one.

If you don't get the two props I'll still buy a large and small one, so I'm in for 2, one of each and will send money to whoever. Like I told Cp3, i'll ship the large one's to the first 10 people for free, and after that what ever it costs is all it costs you.

[dogbert]

Like this?

That's killer, except one minor mod. Make sure the props and logo line up on both sides when you put them back-to-back, so you'd have to make one slope the opposite from the other. Otherwise, it's going to look funny.

Nice work!

[TeamAllen]

Yeah, I just was showing the possibilities of having it in one corner or the other. Here is the last one I could think of.

[dogbert]

I like the one with the two props the best!

[Domsz06]

I'm like four flat tires, down for what ever:)

[anhaney]

Like this?


My vote is for the one with the prop at an angle across the flag:D

[G-MONEY]

I'm in for what ever as long as we can get the flags in time for the cold water reunion.

[Matt Garcia]

I personally like what chpthril has done with the flags here :
http://www.tigeowners.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=6107&stc=1&d=1188958205
Also the site will eventually phase out the prop logo and just use the tigeowners.com lettering. I personally just like the lettering and not the prop but its up to the majority of what people want on here.

The logo can only be used like my example that is attached below. The prop must be on the left side of the lettering or not attached at all.

[Domsz06]

that works for me!!:)

[xpjim1]

Is there supposed to be a period after tige in the examples?

It works for me even though I like the props in the corners.

TeamAllen
Can we get a slanted Tigeowners with the prop to view please.

I say for the 12 x 18 flags we go without the logo on a slant and for the larger flags use the logo. Thats my choice

Thanks

[CP3]

matt Why cant we make the slanted flags?

IM working on the 12x18 flags

[Matt Garcia]

Great question xp, atcually its a registered trademark "®" and it does need to go on there.

[Domsz06]

looks like everyone is making great progress. Thanks go to everyone for doing this and Matt for allowing it.

[Matt Garcia]

You can make the slanted flags but the logo has to be like my example above. I just said I prefer them straight across.

[da.bell]

Well, I vote for no prop then. If the prop is eventually going to be removed, we should remove it before the new logo comes out.

[xpjim1]

I sent out for 2 quotes on the small flags also. they will get back to be monday, life is so much easier when you do not travel for work.

[anhaney]

I feel your pain. I do it usally weekly. But now it is every two weeks for a short term.:o

[Domsz06]

travel and work? is there a job that allows zero of this? i wouldn't know.

[dogbert]

Yeah, it's called being an Allstate or State Farm insurance agent, or whatever the heck da.bell does.

[Domsz06]

You let me know when you find out:)

Hay now, I resemble that remark :p :D :ro:

I was wondering if you were going to step in:)

[dogbert]

Hay now, I resemble that remark :p :D :ro:

I know that you do. I have several buddies who are all State Farm agents and one who is an Allstate agent. That's what I plan to do when I retire. :ro:

[Domsz06]

i thought retire meant not to work, not pick up another job

[CP3]

[dogbert]

i thought retire meant not to work, not pick up another job

[anhaney]

I think my agent is in the office like 1 day a week. Must be nice.
