+AtwellFamily Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Groundspeak Geocoin Policy As of 10-3-06 snip... Order Details: snip... 4. If 1,000 codes or more are ordered, a custom name may be requested, a custom icon may be ordered and a custom prefix may be requested. snip... I think this has been asked before, but I couldn't find an official reply. Will we be requesting a custom prefix? Being the Top 40 a prefix of 40 would be fitting if you can use numbers.

+creacher Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Yeah, I think LP would be the perfect prefix for us to use. Quote Link to comment
+sillygirl & jrr Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Agree about LP! I think I even asked about it some place way earlier in the thread. Too lazy to go back and find it now. jrr Quote Link to comment
+lindsychris Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 We paid our artwork fee. Love the LP prefix--who know our first coin might have my initials too!?!?! Quote Link to comment
+Redwing_dave Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Okay, I'm brand new to the group, as of a few hours ago. I sent my art payment. My label colors depend on what logo I use. I would like to use this as my logo, but I'm not sure if it is to complicated for the logo or not. Also, I don't know how to trim the white background away from the winged-wheel; is that something that oakcoins can do for me? Any advice is appreciated as I try to rapidly put this together. Thanks, Dave Quote Link to comment

Thanks, Dave You do not have to worry about trimming or anything as jamie (the artist) will add it to your coin just send the image as is, you don't even need to resize it (actually I was told the bigger the better).

ParentsofSAM Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 RWD you just send your big artwork picture to your group leader (CCL) and they will forward it along with your other info. To Jamie at MadHattersLand and he will work his magic and make it beautiful! Quote Link to comment
+Snowwolf75 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 'LP' would be cool... maybe 'T4' as being short for 'Top 40' Quote Link to comment

When I was designing my logo, though, I used Paint Shop Pro ... it also for vector objects, which can resized to whatever size you want. Quote Link to comment

+AtlantaGal Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Could we not get the LP prefix? I am not a big fan of 40 for a prefix. I agree, since it is just a number rather than a true prefix. Quote Link to comment
+Fluttershy Posted January 4, 2007 Author Share Posted January 4, 2007 (edited) Could we not get the LP prefix? I am not a big fan of 40 for a prefix. I Chose 40 because it's The Geo 40 Series. LP is a reference to a 33 record, and we're making 45's. If everyone Prefers LP though, I don't mind changing it. Edited January 4, 2007 by Fluttershy Quote Link to comment

+GBOTS Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Not to be nit picky, but LP stands for Long Play and these are 45's.... Maybe FF prefix for 45? I dunno... Quote Link to comment

The Series is Called: The Geo 40 (40 what? 40 Participants & I don't need anything else in the name.) The Common side will say Geocaching the Top 40. Quote Link to comment
+Fluttershy Posted January 4, 2007 Author Share Posted January 4, 2007 The Prefix can be decided upon tomorrow. I will also answer any questions tomorrow regarding pricing, privately by email. Thanks everyone! Right now I'm working on getting Group #2's email out. ~Allie Quote Link to comment
Team Macha Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 I would still have to go with the LP because people will understand that better than any number or FF I think the most people understand what and LP is and could see very well how it relates to the coin. So it is just my opinion that we should stick with LP for our prefix. Quote Link to comment
+Fluttershy Posted January 4, 2007 Author Share Posted January 4, 2007 You're right, Tyler. More people will understand LP than anything else... even though LP does not represent a 45. I chose 40 at first, because I was trying to be as critical as some have been in emails and I wanted it to be correct. But, LP is fine with me. We'll decide tomorrow for certain. LP seems fun, anyway. Quote Link to comment

+coreynjoey Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 (edited) I like LP for the prefix as well. I think people will get it even if it isn't technically correct. I know some people are going to be ordering more than the 50 coins, so they can have some extras for trade and what not, so they can have the complete set. Is there a way each of us could order other peoples coins, or order a complete set of the Geo 40? Like I could order my 50 coins plus 1 of everyone else's? Just a thought, it may not be feasible, so feel free to shoot me down. Edited January 4, 2007 by coreynjoey Quote Link to comment

I do not want people to have the ability to order my personal coin nor do I want the ability to order someone elses personal coin. This takes away my trading possibilities. Quote Link to comment

I believe, however, that many people will want to Trade or Sell. Thanks for asking, I forgot to tell people that the Purchase of Sets will not be available. ~Allie Quote Link to comment
