Unhappy Dash Sign



I was thinking about this for a good part of the evening yesterday and thought I would go ahead and ask. Just how big should these dash signs be.
I made one for the Venice show on an 8" X 11" sheet of paper. Of all the paperwork on my dash I made sure this was front and center, but it appears no one saw it. Because of my wifes health, we were at the car 95% of the show. I rode in with Ken & Carrie, Rob & Mary and then saw Joe and Deb there. The only people who stopped by the car and said hi was Greg and Rashelle. Until I saw others posting about being present, I thought it was just the 8 people mentioned that attended.
I know I'm not a real social person and shy away from crowds, but I do say hi on occasion. I just didn't know if it was me, the Vette or what the problem was that others didn't see the dash sign and stop.
Heck, Rob and I entered the C5 parking area together and he parked on the opposite side the lot from me (Rob you know I'm just teasing ya)
Like I said in another post, this was my first big formal event and wow.
I hope it was just my sign was too small that others didn't say "HI"


Deb's


Joe's


Rob & Mary's

Sorry Ken, I swore I took a couple of the War Bonnet

With my over heating problem, i didn't get much time to walk around. I only got to see a few folks from the forum. And me of all people (the creator of the dash sign) forgot mine

I was thinking maybe we all need some name badges to wear at events....

I bought a box of them, have the software to design them, but talent and time is lacking.....

I would be happy to design and print them on 110# card stock. Just give me an idea of what all you want on them. And the size of the badge holders that you have.

I bought the entire badge kit. Includes cardboard (which works via template on my Avery Design Pro software) and the plastic sleeves that attach via safety pin. If I can find some time, I can work on something, but that time issue (not to mention my lack of artistic skills) is a killer when it comes to motivation.....

Does this sound like what you have?

Avery® Vinyl Badge Holder, Horizontal, 2-5/8" x 3-7/8"
Made from heavyweight vinyl for everyday use

Use prepunched holes to attach to lanyards, reel clips, etc.
Use with Avery 2-1/4" x 3-1/2" Name Badge Inserts (Item # 404061)

Another though would be just a button to wear. Most us belong to a local club and have a name badge for that club. Personally I don't want to wear 2 name badges. So a button would be an acceptable addition.

I just want to figure how C5rick got a dash poster with his Vette on it. I'm way too illiterate to accomplish that, hep me!, hep me!

E-Mail me a pic of your car and I will send you a new dash sign.
