I have an idea to kick around. I think ***boat should produce a flag that can be raised by all of us, so when we are on the water, we know who's a reader or is a frequenter to the forums... no-one ever knows who each other are on the lake. (The guy who snakes me in the gas line could be a forum poster----I may not care then)
Just an idea... Who can sew?

Actually after looking at it I think it might look better with the magenta on top and the red on the bottom. What do you think?

Tom Brown
05-28-2003, 11:37 PM
No problem. It's just as effective, either way. :)

Tom Brown
05-28-2003, 11:56 PM
Actually, I think it's a great idea. :)
Even if someone isn't a member, you might meet them on the water and they could ask about it. I've met lots of people on the water that I'd be semi-interested in staying in touch with.

I think I brought up this very same idea in one of my previous threads. I think it's a great idea but many politics are involved. If Hot Boat creates the flag, it would have to include their logo/copyright, etc. and they would receive all the proceeds of any sales. However, an independent person or company could create a "generic" flag that we could all identify on the river, similar to the multi-colored flag posted above or even an OP6C black pirate flag. Personally, I think a "RiverKitty" flag would work out just fine!!! :D :D wink Just throwing out ideas here. I'm not so sure Hot Boat would even be interested in such an endeavor. Heck, they're having problems just trying to create bumper stickers! I foresee a lot of $revenue$ for whomever chooses to take on this task. JMO!
Moneypit, you should start a poll to see how many peeps would be interested!
Cheers ~RK :D
p.s. I can sew! wink :p

I've been thinking about this also, and here's my .02
A while back, a few threads were devoted to being "RA". From what I see, the complaints lately have been about people not being RA. What about a relatively unobtrusive decal that says only "RA" that is put on your boat and tow vehicle? The meaning wouldn't be general knowledge, but would be easily recognizable. No ***boat affiliation to muck things up, either. This is something I could produce and send out to those that request them (but not advertise them). Kinda like OPC6 is, or was.

I can get the flags made..... I think that we need to have a "true" art contest.... whomever comes up with the best flag design gets it. It will be voted upon in a thread. We can also approach ***boat and ask for permisssion to have their name on the flag. There will be no proceeds..THey would be sold at the cost to make it. I would front the bill.

That way we could all signal each other and not have to even be in a boat at the time. On the freeway, in a bar, heck we could even do it in church!

Great idea (about the flags). Instead of using "Hot Boat Forum" you could use "HBF" on the background that someone will design (not Tom Brown's rather light-in-the-loafers design). :D

Having these flags wouldnt be a problem for me. I have a place where I get my company shirts done. But, It would have to be ONE design. To have everyones avatar would be expensive. I could possibly have the flags silscreened in bulk and then individually have the board names added. But I could check on the pricing. "HBF" would be a good start. Now we have to decide the picture to be placed on it. Ummmm how bout' a boat? idea

I had a concept: RK avatar on the left, on an orange background. Center top a purple/blue HB in large shadow with the member # under it. I made it in Word, but could not get it to transpose as a single image. Looks distinctive.

We are a custom print house and specialize in small qty., large format custom printing jobs. We can print just about any image that can be digitalily created. i.e. photographic images, digital images, vector art,...

Wow! We're getting some excellent work here!!! Woo Hoo!!! Keep it comin'! Once we get enough to choose from, we can start a poll so everyone from the forum can vote on their favorite. The one with the most votes wins!!
Also, it looks like we have at least 2 forum members that have the ability to make the flags. Once the winning flag is chosen, they could submit a bid and the best bid will get the job!
Team work! Gotta love it!

A generic HBF flag would work out just as well. Lets face it, not all usernames should be hung on a flag *wink* and no one will ever remember a users member number. Maybe when people order a flag, they can choose the "generic one" or have the option to add their name/user number to the flag. Just throwin' ideas out here. Let's just call it a "work in progress". However, it'll be pretty cool when it all comes together! Can hardly wait! I wonder if these companies also make baseball caps! :D Now that's something I'd have personalized! Maybe even put little "Kitty Ears" on the top of it! LOL!! :D

This is what I came up with , with a little help from RK.
http://www.bobbyhayden.com/HBF.JPG
I think using numbers will add a bit of insider feel. The key with the flag is to attract other HB fans, so simple is best. The use of RK avatar is because it is the most recognized symbol of the forums (Other than Tom Brown's). I went with orange for obvious reasons, but I think we should avoid blue, black, red or white backgrounds because they are popular colors and would not stand out as much.

Well, that's true, but how will you recognize them on the river when there's hundreds of boats on the water?? Dang! I've been to the river several times and the only boat/person I've recognized is Party Cat. Mainly because he has that black OP6 flag on his boat. You can spot him from miles away! It would be nice to have some way of identifying a fellow board member out on the water so you can stop by and say, "Howdy"! Otherwise, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack! JMO

We would need to check with Party Cat to see if he doesn't mind us using this, as this is his design. Or what you could do is wait till OP6 and check out the flags I made for him. I made a couple different ones out of different fabrics. We could even put people's avatars on them or whatever.

Hey PC! That's a pretty bitchin' flag ya got there for the party! Kyle does great work!
Speaking of which, would it be possible for Kyle to make a "generic flag", without all the specifics of this years event??? It looks like we have quite a few people who are interested. What do you guys think? Just curious.
Cheers ~RK :D

I know the design for the flag has been selected, so here are a couple I was messing around with for fun, I just thought I'd share them with you all. Sorry they are so big

Wow ---- Looks like my idea has taken off! I havent been around lately but I like some of the ideas. Party Cats stuff is bitchen, but I think we still need a flag that represents the ***boat forums. To get an Op6 flag could mean that you have been to that event and not a forum member. EduKator's ideas are very good. RiverKitty has the right idea about the color though. It need to be a recognizable color....what I mean is something that stands out but not a typical boat color. Anyway... keep going. Hurry up.. or I wont be able to use this flag until next year!

Okay, I know you want colors that stand out, but I'm not sure what colors you would like that, so I picked orange and blue. Here are a few more flags I designed.

That last flag has a lot going for it. I personally think that we should use HB instead of HBF. Being a perverted type, I can come up with too many renames for forum.

I like a simple flag (like the one Rich picked) but more importantly, I think the idea of having a flag is a very good one and someone with influence on the board should take the flag and run with it. :rolleyes:
Now's the time to get these things made and out there to everyone who's interested.
Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

Cheers ~RK :D I did make Party Cat one w/out this years info. I think it just had the OP6 oval. Maybe he could post that one. I think the idea of personalizing the flag is the best idea. i.e. user name or avatar or both, along with HB.

Here's a few more just with the HB, not HBF

The last three look real good Edu. I would go for the middle one, with member number instead of avatar.

Kim Hanson's orange fade to red flame with 1/2 black with blue letters HB - VERY CLEAN & LEGIBLE - can't get so fancy that we can't read. Some were very busy!
