Sticker suggestion

Hi all,

Driving behind a few cars today, I noticed that the stickers that get noticed are the easiest to read, least cluttered ones.

The stickers I received with this year's calender is a take on the heading bar at the top of the page. One a car window, or on low light occassions, it is a difficult sticker to read.

How about a simple sticker with black font on a white background with:

iceinspace.com.au
australian amateur astronomy


Easy to read, to the point, and true to the heading bar. Maybe with a black outline graphic of the Moon on onside and Saturn on the other for the 'astro' look. I'd be happy to purchase some.

If one can be made to also stick to the inside of a window or plasticised, makes it more weather resistant.

Just a thought.

I advertise it all the time. Every photo I sell has a plug for the forum on the back of it. I've handed out flyers, stickers, if someone I meet shows an interest in Astronomy I direct them here.
Spread the joy I reckon.
