For Sale Sign

VJ, 15 April, 2008 at 15:22 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 7

I'm trying to make a For Sale sign for my car and nothing I seem to do looks very good! I'm doing it in word, using word art but I'm just wondering, does anyone know what sort of colours it should be? Is just black too boring?

Any ideas would be very appreciated!! ?

    Make it bold and clear so it can been seen from a distance. Don't put fancy fonts that make it difficult to read. And put the price on - not just a number to call.

    Bold & Simple

    Don't overdo it with fancy fonts etc.

    If you want me to have a dabble, just PM me the details ?

    Keep it simple and don't put too much information on it - people will ring you and you can tell them anything else they need to know. I'd want to know length of remaining MOT, TAX, price and mileage.

    I put the price and my mob no in such a big font that they fill the whole page. Then people can see it from far off and give me a ring for details.

    How funny, i've just been doing this for h2b's grand parents who are selling a car.

    Do you have Microsoft Publisher on your computer? If so i recommend this program and make it into a banner which will fill all your font window and back window, although obviously don't leave it in if your driving around. There's is just going to be parked outside their house so it will work.

    Fab idea, but I haven't got Publisher at work. I'll give it a go when I get home though, thanks!

    <tangent>A girl I used to work with was selling her car, she was about 19, very pretty, huge rack! She used to get texts all the time at traffic lights from cars full of boys in the next lane, taking her number off the for sale posters! Me, I thought it was really funny, her not so much ?<tangent>
