I think we need to look at the clothing range within the shop, i think we need to modernise the offerings. Need to implement a new logo. Have you got some plans Ian?

@Bretteo
There are too many permutations for item colours/logo colours to have images of all the possibilities for the clothing. However, I agree we could have some extra images. Since all clothing items are posted direct to customers from our supplier it is impossible for me to take any photos, however I will PM some recent customers and see if they wouldn't mind sending me some :thumleft:


@vinnie
I am waiting for the results of the Club survey to hopefully get some ideas. If that doesn't work then I'll start a brainstorming thread on the forum :) (or I might do that anyway once we have the survey results).

With regards to a new clothing range, I really can't work on that until we finalise a new Club logo. Now I don't want to be seen as 'passing the buck' on this one, but the new logo was not something I took responsibility for... I'll try to find out where we are at with it.

No site jobs today fortunately as its peeing down, loads of admin to do but the ever present RX8OC forum is distracting me.
Whilst it may well be nice, ooh I do hate that word, to have clothing available in almost every RX colour it certainly does complicate logo design when trying to find something that suits every colour.
Additionally if everyone were to turn up at events in variously coloured shirts etc; then where is the visual group identity?
My view would be to simply have two colours white and black which would work with most logos and make designing any new logo simpler. I am referring mainly to shirts here as I doubt anyone would want a white coat or hat.
Whilst a survey could be conducted of the members to ascertain which colours were the most popular the majority would probably not reply and the results would I guess be very varied. better to simply decide on the colours and then advise the membership that he "new" RX8OC club logo and colours are ?????? and ?????? and images are available modelled by your committee!! Stock imagery with faces photoshopped in is simplest.
It will be interesting to read people reaction to my thoughts / proposals.
