Logos Variations ...
OK - Finally got 'round to finishing this :

With some variations to suit 900 x 80 mm front windscreen ... there should be at least one among that lot to suit ...
Let us know your preferred option ( ie: Banner with Eruostile Bold Ex ) + if you want a specific file format ( Eg: jpg, PDF etc.)
and send in an e-mail ( bantum69 at hotmail.com ) to me, then I can flip it back to you with attachment ...
( Note : It will be a largish file - ready for printing + also remove 'at' in address above & replace with @ to e-mail )
Add : That also applies to the other badges ( can add your state emblem ) + Side banner done earlier ...
Then you can get it printed out at your local ...
Note : I still haven't found the text font that the 'Backyardboys' used though ...
Cheers, Bantum ...

The closest match I can get Free is : ComicsCarToon Regular

Another font spot to checkout is : fontspace

This could be awkward if you came in at the wrong moment on the conversation.RSR 555 wrote:It's close but not Boink..
I think one of the reasons why we've been able to keep the subaru in our web address is that the owners argued it's AUS-ubaru.com - Subaru did a big "clean up" of un-licenced use of their name to help keep track of where their name is exactly etc. I'm 99% sure this applied to forums as well. I'd rather not advertise it with a two colour effect.
That said, "If we can't get Boink" I like the last one you've posted in that line up

How much does a font cost anyway?

Using this site http://www.whatfontis.com/ I was able to determine (on the 13th of May) the font is Boink which does look very similar to rhino

Comic Relief ...
Good point - Although its easy enough just to print in one colour - if that's your thing ...El_Freddo wrote: http://www.AUS-ubaru.com - I'd rather not advertise it with a two colour effect.

Although I'm pretty sure 'Fat Rhino' is the one we want, if we can find the one that matches without having to use differing fonts would be good ...El_Freddo wrote: That said, "If we can't get Boink" ...

This 'Comic' one will have to do for now :

Note : I've used combination of fonts to get the effect above ...

Varies - depends on which site you go to ( Approx. $15 to $30 ) So if you really want it - buy one & send a copy to me ...El_Freddo wrote: How much does a font cost anyway ?

Here ya go :El_Freddo wrote: I like the last one you've posted in that line up ...

Note : On closer inspection the edges of text are all fuzzy, not sure if you want that effect or not ... Johnny - I will get a .PSD file of it up shortly ( Need to convert it ) ...

I have a big fancy AUSubaru sticker around here somewhere.... When I find it I'll grab some detailed photo and stick it here before I put it on Otter. 

Otter the 2004 Outback with all the fruit.

Possible Improvements: Rigid 12db Phone Aerial Fitted, Air-compressor w/ Hose & Air-Tank, Jerry Holders, Lift, Nudgebar and Spots?

Toonga, that looks pretty bloody close! I'd have one of those if we can't get an original unit knocked up...
