+Saving Shiloh 0 Posted January 16, 2006 (edited) This is just an interest topic.This is just an idea that popped into my head, I'm not sure if I'm going to make THIS geocoin, or even A geocoin, but anyway, I got permission to post these pictures: Had to edit, mispelling and pic wouldn't show up Edited January 16, 2006 by Saving Shiloh Quote Share this post Link to post

+Saving Shiloh 0 Posted January 16, 2006 I like it. Why does it say "official geocache"? I don't know, I just like the saying on there, plus, there's an ammo can at the bottom Quote Share this post Link to post

+Marky 0 Posted January 16, 2006 Knowing how shaded colors (the green leaves on the trees) actually come out, the tree side might look better as a 3D die. --Marky Quote Share this post Link to post

+GEO*Trailblazer 1 0 Posted January 16, 2006 Maybe it should say "OFFICIAL GEOCACHER". Good looking coin. Quote Share this post Link to post
+Renegade Knight 3 Posted January 16, 2006 (edited) What picture on the coin has something to do with you? Signal the Frog? Your avitar would be a better pic for your own coin and this sites mascot, though I'd rather see the mascot than the logo.

+LadeBear68 0 Posted January 16, 2006 Put the mascot in the tree or on the ammo box and the crosses on the other side? I know, a frog doesn't climb trees. Oops, I don't think this was a suggestion thread, sorry. Looks great. Three please. Quote Share this post Link to post
+crake 0 Posted January 17, 2006 I'm afraid you can not use Signal. I already asked, and licensing is not available. And if you did somehow get permission I'd like to know your secret Quote Share this post Link to post
+AtlantaGal 0 Posted January 17, 2006 I'm afraid you can not use Signal. I already asked, and licensing is not available. I tried to mention this in the other thread he opened. Quote Share this post Link to post

+AtlantaGal 0 Posted January 17, 2006 i got permission to post this from kerry of Groundspeak Posting a picture and minting a coin are 2 different things. Ask them if they'll grant you permission to mint that coin. My bet is on "no" since others have already asked. Quote Share this post Link to post
gridlox 0 Posted January 17, 2006 i got permission to post this from kerry of Groundspeak Posting a picture and minting a coin are 2 different things. Ask them if they'll grant you permission to mint that coin. My bet is on "no" since others have already asked. I agree. I even recieved a "very small" hand slap for using "the trademarked GC logo" and "Signal the Frog" without asking prior permission to create the artwork for the CITO coin of Atlanta Gal's concept of what she'd like to see in a CITO coin. But luckily they liked the design and proceeded to use the AG's concept & a version of my design to put a CITO coin in the works. And since I also stated in my post of the coin that I had designed it with the intentions of letting Groundspeak produce the coins, not me, I think it kept a lot of heat off of me for not asking prior to posting the artwork. ESPECIALLY since it was a flagrant violation of using both piece of artwork without permission. I harbored no ill feelings for the "correction" and TOTALLY understand!! I agree with some of the others that suggested using something more personal in your coin design!! In my "personal walk" opinion, your avatar would make for a MUCH better subject for you own coin.

+pdxmarathonman 0 Posted January 17, 2006 The text across the bottom of the Signal side should be flipped around to be readable right-side-up. Quote Share this post Link to post
+Eartha 21 Posted January 17, 2006 I checked on this and the permission was for posting the picture only. Groundspeak will not be giving permission for Signal to be used on coins. It's a lovely design, but this the only place you will be seeing it. Quote Share this post Link to post
