• IFAP Flag - Greetings and Respect

So, the idea has been kicked around a few times but I think it's finally time to do it. The whole forum donates, we have it made, we all sign it, pose with it, box it up and ship it to the next big game/meetup and it'll just circle the country/world getting signatures, fields, locations and OP-names posted on it. I've had quotes made in the past and it's safe to say that it's going to be at least $100 so that's out goal. But before we get that far we need a decent design. Personally I think a Facepunch logo in the center of a white field would be best. Unfortunately I have no artistic skill. It maximizes white space so we have PLENTY of room to write or draw whatever we want, assuming we don't hog space. Alternative designs in my head include having "IFAP" or "International Facepunch Airsoft Players" written below it. Or even having a "East Coast" on the top right, "West Coast" on the top left and "Everyone Else" in the center.
That would be a great idea, if not for the postage. The flag would surely get lost at some point, because posting services suck balls. I've never recieved my patches :< Also, I know for sure that I wouldn't be able to donate in any way. Very sad face :(
I vote this starts in the west coast, then by the time of Blacksheep it should reach the east coast. From there we can send it to Europe and then around the woooorrlld [editline]11th February 2013[/editline] This really reminds me of [URL]http://doom.wikia.com/wiki/Hissy[/URL]
I say the white flag with the fp logo in the middle is good I think it should be headed by international facepunch hen below the fp logo reads airsoft players. I'll do my draw up when I get home.
Add events as they are played. Add players as they touch the sacred flag.
I think it should be just a white field with the FP logo and in small letters underneath "International Facepunch Airsoft Players". And then when each group of IFAP'ers get it, they sign where their group is ie. if Northeast FAP got the flag, they'd sign in the upper right corner: "NORTHEAST FAP" and then their names.
I think it should just be blank with the FP logo and IFAP and then we can stencil on the OPs as they happen
Can anyone just real quick make a FP logo with a white field so I hav something to give the guy to design?
I love this idea
[t]http://i.imgur.com/m2mFAnF.png[/t] Plain and simple like that or with 'IFAP' below it? It looks like the Japanese flag [editline].[/editline] it's symbolic cause us sucker punched japan with atom bombs huehueuhuehuehuehu
That's good. Anyone have any objections? I'm fine with seeing different interpretations or concepts. Once we pick a design I'll get a solid quote, I'll have it made and take donations to help counter the personal costs I'll be incurring.
[t]http://i.imgur.com/NpRFfK1.png[/t] [t]http://i.imgur.com/Q2UY5Vg.png[/t] Two more options if people want text on it. We'd also need to agree on a font, I just used something basic and bold for the idea.
I vote for the one with "IFAP" on it

It's not a matter if "I'm not going to Blacksheep" or anything. It's going to be shipped from New York all over the country. So if you go to a big meetup or OP out where ever you live, than you'd get to see it and write on it.
god damnit someone else go to bad blood 2013 with me so we can write that on the flag
[QUOTE=Ninja Duck;39553807][t]http://i.imgur.com/NpRFfK1.png[/t] [/QUOTE] I really like this concept, but, the text needs to sit alittle lower.
i have a really good design for this but it'd be pretty hard to sign it
I get huge discounts from Vistaprint thanks to the hundreds if not thousand dollars worth of campaign merchandise i've purchased, It's a lame method as it'd require a bulk order but i do get decent deals cause of all the money i've spent. 40% off and 100$ off coupons

That looks good but for the purpose the flag is serving (signatures), a white background is the best route to go. That way it won't matter what color marker someone has or whatever.
I like the wreath part and the stripe, personally. Maybe white background but keep the dark red stripe? Keeps it classy as fuck but still easy to sign.
how awesome would that look if everyone signed it with silver marker though
IFAP red stripe beer.
FAP STRIPE HOORAAAAAAY BEER
the wreath looks good but if you're wanting a white background the red stripe is just going to take up space for signatures. also IFAP > thatotherlongsuggestion getting a picture taken with a flag that says I FAP will bring all the boys to the yard.
Edit of venom's design, all kredits to him. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/0MjU4bm.png[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/cwj1vfI.png[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/3xAT4Za.png[/IMG] And for the Brits of the forum: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/tigBRMj.png[/IMG] I really didn't do too much, but the bright colours would help signatures exponentially.
the top bar could benefit from not being so close to the lettering.
Now I really like that shit.
I like Draugur's with the wreath and pixel text but just red and white
