alternative to ubiquitous "my Family" stickers

Anyone out there with a printing business can make an alternative to the hated 'my family' car stickers?
Something along the lines of 'my astro family?' with silhouettes of dobs, scts, refractors, domes etc
Just a thought

Good idea,
I have seen a pic with a family silhoutte with "One Astronomical Unit" written on it. Would make a good car sticker.

Many places will print onto stickers, I'd be happy to do the graphics.



I wanted to do 'My Bogan Family' stickers with more realistic shaped people in more realistic clothing

I'd like to see "my family" stickers representing zombies, vampires and aliens - closely enough matched that, from a distance, they could pass for the usual stickers, but on a second look you'd think, "hey, is that a zombie"?

(Then again, maybe I've been drinking too much caffeine today).

Stick it to those drivers

I hate those stupid family stickers too!
And I've noticed that they are often very dangerous and slow drivers
I've got a blue Takahashi sticker on my car
Not that 99.99% of the population will understand that one....

I avoid stickers on my cars, I even hate the one the car dealer decided to stick on, I don't like the fact that I'm advertising their business for free. I have however had a TripleJ sticker on one of my cars.

I have seen a rude version of the family stickers called "I hate your *BEEPING* family" with all the heads cut off and blood, and some with the figures being hung.

Reminds me of all the "Baby On Board" warning labels from the 90s, then I saw one that had "Mother In-Law In Boot"
