My sons B-day is just around the corner and he has asked me to make him a set of graphics.So, I was thinking about doing him a set of flames,but not your traditional red and yellow ones.(i like a more unique and original one;) )anyhow,what would you all think of yellow and dk. blue fading for flames? maybe a flaming skull or a flaminig skull riding a quad with flames shooting off it?here area couple pics of the mini ,any imput would be great..Thanks..

Something like this might work better for a 6 year old.

As for yeloow flames, the yellow would be inside of a dk blue flame and maybe a touch of orange all colors will "fade" into each other,I sure wish I could figure out my paint program to show you..:( another pic..:)

Tina ~ How much does it cost you to get your graphics done? I really want to get some done for mine, but was wondering about how much it might cost me. Maybe if I payed you and gave you the colors I want, you could do them. Hehehe, j/k.
Thanks, Kacy

Thanks, Kacy Kacy, the cost is a bit more,because its something that isnt "mass produced" so its gonna set you back a good 100.00 or more, the nice part is, your gonna get alot better grade of vinyl and they will last alot longer and they will be your own,no one will have a set like them.;) If you have an idea what you want ,but dont know how work with it, just tell the graphics people, they should have books with patterns you can work with and throw on the computer ..Just go around and get estimates and make sure they use a good vinyl(maybe one they use on racecarsor a convex material) If I had the money for the machinery(and the brains to run programs) I think this would be a very cool side job...;)

Hey QJ for the video game try ebays half.com I usually get some good deals on there for games & they have a ton of them used & new!!! Good luck & good job on the art work, my brother designs his own T-shirts & makes them he's a very good artist also, now you got me thinkin I maybe should have him design my stuff for my quad(300EX) if I ever get it LOL.

For those looking for some sweet vinyl deals check out www.afterfxstreetdesign.com .

He's got some sweet prices, even if you are only having 1 set of graphics done. I bet it will be under $20 for most anything you can come up with.

You won't see much for quad graphics at his site, but send him and email at sales@afterfxstreetdesign.com and he'll hook you up.

Tell him the CVBz sent ya...lol.

-Josh Thanks for the info!!;) convex material tends to be pretty spendy,so anywhere I can get a break on a price is great:) .....

Yeah, this guy is a great guy...really easy to deal with...He also does custom work so if you tell him what you want and give him the measurements he can design it for you also...The price will be cheap...trust me.

Hope this helps, your kids quad is going to look great.
