Just got this email -- who in the MOB can generate a vector file or an image with 300dpi resolution (minimum)?

Need to get the Ducati Owners Club folks a logo for ye' old MOB.

Thanks,
Tigre

   we need the logo-combo of your club. We need vector file or a simple image with 300 dpi minimum definition. Can you send us?

   Thanks.

can't you just dredge up the last thread on MOB logos from years past?  i seem to remember spidey lobbying for a unicorn with a dildo as the horn.

I'd pay to see the Italians' reaction to that [laugh] [laugh] [laugh]

I can definitely create a vector file (EPS) of the MOB logo. Doesn't somebody already have it, like the original designer? BTW, I have no idea who that is. What's the deadline?

Actually, depending on the outcome of my warranty repair, I might be tempted to do that...with Del Torchio's head on the unicorn.

Thanks!

No... I don't think we have anything.  We've had a number of suggestions.

I'm fine with just something simple/plain like DUCATIMOB in that Ducati font.
Could do subtitle of Monster Club in smaller font.

I can try to create someething if you can make an EPS.  Can I do anything with standard programs (that come with Windows or I can DL fee trials)?

Done! Surprisingly, while searching for the proper font, I found http://www.ducatimonster.org/downloads.html - which must have slipped under the new owners' radar  [thumbsup]

Anyway, ask and ye shall receive:

http://metoca.net/ducatimob.pdf
http://metoca.net/ducatimob2.pdf
http://metoca.net/ducatimob3.pdf - "monsters of the bay"

I kinda like "monster club." Gives it a certain bit of uncertainty.

shouldn't MOB be defined instead of listing the second line?
perhaps "Monsters Of the Bay / San Francisco"
'09 Monster 696+ Red, of course.
EvoTech Tail Tidy, SpeedyMoto frame sliders, 14T front sprocket

these two logos look great ... only two things missing are a big dildo (to keep spidey happy) and a unicorn standing in front of a rainbow (to keep mark happy)   [roll]

If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.
