Has anyone seen the MMC badge anywhere? I saw a cloth one on a vest or shirt offered by some vendor. Can't think of which one.

I know the T-shirts are made by Santa's Elves during the off season and I always find out about the Rallayes AFTER the fact. Just wondered if anyone knew of someone, someplace that offered a MMC badge, mag or cloth or both.

And that is because it is the best club. I have a stencil on the boot window, but would like to have a badge also.

Did anything ever come of this? I'm prepping to go back in. Would loooove one to slap on my signature -- not that I'll be checking in all that much, but still.

Around the outside, Mini Owners in Iraq, in the middle a map of Iraq, and across the map, MND-N. that's be awesome.

I have a pretty good laminator I can use if it would really need it for a nice gloss finish I suppose. anybody making their own creations this way?

Check out in the Collectibles the magnetic badge trading thread alot of us are designing and making or having badges made.

finding high resolution images

Not about badges only, but some newbie questions for any/all of you awesome artists out there, with all your experience at creating MINI swag.

I'm trying to design a simple logo for a project. I am coming up empty though, searching for high-resolution (or at least decent-sized) line art of a MINI to use in it. I'm looking for that car outline that MINI uses to promote MTTS, or something like it - there is a similar one facing straight-on front. I see these car outlines all over the place, on various t-shirts and other logos, etc. - so I assume they're legally OK to use? Here is an example of the car outline that I'm talking about, in COOPERation's gallery:

Is there some place online to find stuff like that to use in your art? All I can find are itty-bitty gifs and jpegs like this.

I create graphics in Adobe Illustrator. I like creating pure vector art. Working with art downloaded from the net can be dangerous; it's only at 72 dpi and it's in the RGB colorspace. Ideally, in a print environment, a good graphic should be 300 dpi and be separated into CMYK. I've never tried my hand at sculpting a MINI from scratch. Perhaps it's worth a try.
