Anyone that stalks me will know that one of my other hobbies is storm chasing (http://www.sostorms.cjb.net), yes, thunderstorms. Yes, you know - like Twister, as in, "DEBRIS! WE HAVE DEBRIS!!!111" etc.
I've been asked to develop a universal car stick that any storm chaser anywhere can display in their car. Now, I'm no artist so I knew the best place to get some help would be... HERE!
If anyone is interested, I'd be very greatful for some possible designs for a car sticker, using this template;

(That is, a simple rectangle.)
Perhaps the image could include a car, chasing a storm, with the words, "Storm Chaser". Or something similar. It needn't be complicated. This is the "TORRO" design;

Simple stuff.
If you want to have a shot just upload and parade your sticker in this thread, I'll put all the designs forward and you never know - you could see your sticker design on cars around the world.
Remember, it's supposed to be universal, so no "South East England Storm Chaser" or "UK Storm Chaser" etc. "Storm Chaser" is a suggested term. You might want to try a slogan too, but that shouldn't be too large.
I really look forward to your designs. I'm going to have a stab at making some too.
:)
Well, why not have the most famous Storm Chaser of all on it?

Or how about pointing out their intelligence?

Hehe...

Whee.
LOL, they're all good.
A little un-serious, but nice. :P
I'll let someone else do the artwork, but how about the caption: "If you can read this, you'd probably be better off driving in the opposite direction"?
LOL! Witty slogan, SHH :P

More wit:
Stormchasers: Low pressure... high stakes
Stormchasers: Elated by depressions
Stormchasers UK: An exciting pursuit of drizzle in north Manchester
Stormchasers: We're not rednecks, but we are idiots in a pickup truck

Nothing says it quite like 'crap'!
Someone call me?

Yes, but unlike Yufster I'm not going to post twenty new threads about my jealousy. ::)
It would help if he didn't keep provoking her (http://www.agsforums.com/yabb/index.php?board=1;action=display;threadid=2310;start=msg163263#msg163263), haha.
Sorry m0ds. I couldn't help it.
"Storm chasers do it on video".
and AGSers do it in WinRoomEdit!
Any more for any more? The current pics are funny! But I don't know how well they'd go down with other storm chasers. They take things quite seriously. Lightheartedness is fine. But that excluse Os Ultimo.
;)
Yes. I am so jealous of Remo, and not at all happy for him. Because I am that kind of person. I do not feel happy for people. And now that Remo has that job, all my hopes for the future are dashed because Tim would never accept me as an intern as long as Remo was in another department altogether, testing. And why even bother applying for jobs in other games studios when Remo is in the industry? In fact, why even bother going through university?
Man, I hate that guy. I hate him! Although he looks a lot better without that green skin. I hate that green skin!
Jealousy consumes me! Ah! I am losing weight! I cannot eat, sleep or drink for this mad, mad jealousy!
I don't have any relevant contribution to this thread.`
Severe TS alert!
Wow m0ds, that sounds like fun! I love storms! ;D
You should come to the U.S. and chase some of me and shbazjinkens's midwestern mega-storms! ;) Do you have any cool pics for us to look at?
P.S.
I like Haddas's sticker.
--edit--
Here's something you could put on your car: Thunderstorms: Mother nature on PMS.
And on a more serious note: Tornado: Hunt it. Film it. Survive it.
Yes, that last one was kinda corny, but who cares?

Dude, thats cool... but replace that white car with KITT and you'll be all set!
/me starts talking to his car... ;D
Scuthbert, that catch phrase is great!
On a sidenote, it's storming right now. I live in one of a pair of dorm towers, and the other was just struck by lightening, my room turned white for a moment even with the blinds down. Scared the crap out of me and set off about 50 car alarms. :D

Yes. It would have been even better if he had thought it up all by himself ;D
EDIT: I hope everyone's okay, shabz
