When we started gathering here it was pretty easy to make up a snowcat coffee mug because we had about 40 owners of Aktiv Snow Trac snowcats here. Since then we have gathered a bunch of Kristi, Thiokol, Tucker, Bombardier, LMC/DMC and other brand owners here.
So now I need some help. I can make up a mug design that has 3 snowcats on it. Which 3 brands should I put on the mug? The majority of our members are Snow Trac owners, but the Tucker and Thiokol folks certainly have a strong following. Kristi is well represented too, but there are not a lot of them posting, but they still show up. And so do many other folks.
Here is the artwork for LAST YEAR's mug:

And if you have any 'line art' or if you are handy with photoshop and want to submit a design, or just a partial design then I would really appreciate seeing anything you can contribute.
To give anyone any ideas, here is a mug design that I made up, but never actually had made onto a coffee mug. I proposed the idea, but it was simply not implemented.

For graphic ideas you can see that there are 3 images side by side and they simply wrap around the mug. So if you have an image that you think would be good on a coffee mug, then please submit it to me for possible consideration. The images must be pretty high resolution and must be black and white line art. We can only add very limited colors if we want to keep teh cost down. If the image is not black & white, it is possible to convert it to black & white using special software, but sometimes the quality of the image degrades when that happens. I'm pretty much willing to try anything!
But I need your ideas! As always, all profits go to support the forums. And just so you know, these mugs, even if we gets started now, will NOT be ready in time for Christmas! This is something I work on in my spare time so they would be ready in LATE WINTER or EARLY SPRING.
