  • Key Fob Design

    Okay... here's the initial design I've come up with...



    It's simple and to the point... on one side... the 30th anniversary of the XS and on the otherside... celebrating the MAXIM...

    If anyone has suggestions... please post them...
    Please keep in mind that these will be approximately 1.5" X 2" and there won't be much room for detail...

    The original design that I sent to the company was for one side only... so I'm not certain what the final cost will be now that a second side is added... but I'm trying to keep the cost minimal...

    A friend of mine is trying to get us a better price for the fobs through her industry discount...

    (I will be centering the MAXIM a little to allow more clearance on the right side)

    If I can make at least one person smile, or pee their pants a little, or maybe spit out their drink; then my day is not wasted.

      Wildkat, are there a lot of Maxims out there? I would kinda like the 30th anniversary paired with our tuning fork logo?
      Just a suggestion......

        Well...

        I'm kinda taking a risk with trademarks and copyrights as it is... Since Yamaha doesn't market the XS or the MAXIM anymore... I guess I felt a little safer using those, than the tuning forks that they are currently using on everything from motorcycles to musical instruments...
        and the MAXIM guys were left out on the last key fob and since they have a place here too... I thought it would be nice...

        Just my thoughts...

          I would prefer it be the same on both side and refer to the XS11s 30th. Ether way as usual i will support the site and those who do the extra work like this by purchasing 3 or more of what ever final design is used.
          No luck on a leather fob eh? Just the tuning forks on one side of a soft leather fob.

            I like it!

            Probably because I own an XJ and an XS. I would still take a couple regardless of the final design.

              Only thing I would comment on is the 1978-2008. That looks like something on a headstone. I would suggest just

              30th Anniversary
              2008

              or something similar

              Once you un-can a can of worms, the only way to re-can them is with a bigger can.
