PH Umbrella 2010

[DreadDave]

Hi Guys,

We are currently looking at the idea of a fresh new umbrella as we are getting into our rainy season and asking if anyone has any ideas about the design.

All view and opinions welcome.

Dave.

[SEE YA]

Are there any old stock left to buy?.

[Josh147]

Keep it the same size as the old one for sure. Maybe have a couple of differnt designs based on the stickers you have i.e. the Pistonheads Smiley on a country flag background?

HI Dave,

IMHO....

The first one works best, but maybe decrease the size of the smiley a wee bit?

The other 2 are just a bit over the top.

[Poledriver]

Number 3 looks really girly, maybe needs an MX5 logo too!

Number 1 looks cool, don't reduce the size of the logo though!

[Petrolhead_Rich]

Number 1, but perhaps with "pistonheads - speed matters" and "spank it" in small text in the alternate sections??

I will be keeping an eye out for these...

[Josh147]

I like No.2

[DreadDave]

Hi Guys,

thanks for the feed back, after talking the PH team i think we will go for a minimal look as before. As things progress i will update you.

Why not make the Handle a Gear Stick?

Just an idea.. Saw it once before on an Umbrella a friend had. Looked pretty cool.

Found some examples on the net.



Hope you like my idea

Any response from your 'feelers'?... Would love a PH brolly for meh car

[Mr Roper]

How about making the PH logo cover whole of the umbrella? Aerial shots would see them stand out. Plenty of exposure at LeMans ha

[Poledriver]

It'll be ready for the next heatwave... It'll be the PH Parasol then!

Maybe the Mods should change the thread title to 'PH Umbrella 2012'

Avoids disappointment in 2011 as well

[vrsocty]

Now disappointment in 2012 as well!

Any news on these ?.
