+AtwellFamily Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 The winner will receive 2 free (yellow and green) GeoScooters in Black Nickel plating. The cointest will end February 21 at midnight Geotime. Only ideas I have right now might be scooter, helmet or both Any and all ideas are welcome! Quote Link to comment
+GATOULIS Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Hello! Nice scooters!1! About the icon, well, I am a litle confused! I will tell you why! I haven't seen a helmet icon before, and I would like to see one as icon! Can you imagine a scooter helmet with a GPS antena on it? On the other hand, most of the GC with jeeps, cars, etc, have as icon the same or almost the same design! Iti s better to recognize the geocoin easier! a helmet only, may be confused with other GC in the future, with themes of F1 cars, Motorcycles...(Sorry, I do not know if these exist already!). Now, about both... meaning what? To have an icon with a scooter and a helmet on the seat, or a helmet with a scooter (word of the scooter itself) printed on it? I think that in both, the helmet of the scooter will be so tiny...! Iti s a good think to use helmet, and you can pass a message to scooter users to wear a helmet, but I believe that a nice scooter like the red one (facing left) will be a beautiful icon! Hey I do not mean that I do not like the other colors, ok? Red is the color of passion and speed! Quote Link to comment
+Nochipra Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Here is my idea? Maybe you could have the character with a gps but of course that would not be safe holding a gps in one hand while driving. Quote Link to comment
+AtwellFamily Posted February 17, 2008 Author Share Posted February 17, 2008 I was looking for something in the 32x32 and 16x16 format. Ready to use! I do think GATOULIS was right. Let us try and stick to the scooter idea, maybe the use of the GEO stick for the 16x16 icon. Quote Link to comment

+coreynjoey Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Here's Joey's work. Why do icons have to be so small! Quote Link to comment
+GATOULIS Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 I like that they all use the red scooter facing left! I do not know how to make an icon or something like that so I just desrcibed it! Now I can see it too!!! Great!!!! I am so happy with that!! Quote Link to comment
+Geo.Error Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 (edited) I think if you make a picture of one off the coins.( the scootercoin you like most) and make there your icon from. Example The memorian reintje de vos has a photo picture of a fox. {that is the one a most like] The lord of the caches has a picture off a ring. The huskies coin has a photo picture of the coin. You take a calm background , put there your most favorit scootercoin on and take a picture. The scootercoin must jump out of the background. The coins are beautiful so i think you get a marvellous icon. Btw i can not make a examle. Here you will find Glennk721 who makes great pictures and knows the right background. {see link} Succes.

Well...how about the red scooter to have the ceocaching symbol (The one with the 4 colors...) as a font?? Round symbol or square! Quote Link to comment

I am guessing you had something like this in mind: Quote Link to comment
