Yes that is right black vinyl on red and black vinyl on white, we also removed the URL altogether from the prints.trickster wrote:Thanks Kevinkevron6 wrote:Trickster I just wanted to thank you for your input.

I am now back home and read the threads again because I admit
that while away I reading quite fast and I was a bit confused about
what we are finally going to do.
Just to be sure:
We are making 2 editions of that poster
1. Black vinyl on red background
and
2. Black vinyl on white background
no logos of the forum no other lettering
?
I totally agree. I love the idea of the red background and if that is the only swirl we can use then I love it.Scheckywhite wrote:Black Record on Red BG is my favourite.
Not a fan of the beachball-esque of the swirl.

The white background was the first choice, the red background was to appease the masses, a third poster wouldn't really make much sense..trickster wrote:I think I agree.ms8shaw wrote:I totally agree.

I dont want to be an ass or something, just trying to express my feelings.
I think that the white background makes the poster look really empty.
Keeping the red background on both and changing the vinyl color makes sense
as it focuses on the vinyl which is the main theme on a collecting forum like this.
I've stated before and I'll state it again, we CAN NOT use a peppermint swirl as our 'logo' or on any 'merch' that we might produce. Sure the Stripes don't have a copywrite on it, but because we are SOO closely tied to the Stripes in terms of why this site even exists we are NOT able to use it. If we were a Bon Jovi fan site we could use a peppermint no problem, but we're not. NO ONE can sell a poster that is essentially being passed off as a White Stripes poster.Regarding the swirl I admit I like a lot the one I suggested/stole from internet
but if the artist comes up with a better one I am cool
I am 100% certain that when people get their posters in the mail they will be happy with them. You do also have the choice to buy just the Red background poster.I really want to support this project but also get an item (or 2) that I would like
to have in my collection

I too preferred the two red backgrounds with one black and one white vinyl...It seems we are in a minority since the white background apparently was the first choice consensus from what Higherlimits posted about this.trickster wrote:I think I agree.ms8shaw wrote:I totally agree.
