If it is produced in purple, my wife will buy it if for nothing more than to look at. She will buy purple clothes, fabric softeners, office supplies, anything that's purple. o_O Yeesh!
Fortunately my wife is more casual about it. Purple is something she enjoys but isn't quite as, um, "purple-centric" as yours. But still, she does like her purple along with teal and pink. All good combinations.

I wonder if I should change the tag line to, " My other car is my Mother." would anyone pick up on the reference? Probably only the old farts...
"A 1028 Porter, that's my mother dear, she helps me through every thing I do, and I'm so glad she's here. My mother the car."

For those too young to remember, it was a 1960s sitcom about a fellow who's mother was reincarnated as a talking car. It starred Jerry Van Dyke (later seen in "Coach"). The car's voicing was by Ann Southern. She gave him advice. Sort of a 20th century Siri.

I can't remember all the stations I clicked past in the 60s but I'm pretty sure this program was one of them. LMAO.
PS far too many in ear shot only consider "Mother" one half a word. Sorry but true.

Never ever present a graphic of the Elio that is not in perfect scale. In other words your Elio is too short. Plus your green text should never be superimposed. Use your white space. In other words keep your Elio and text separate. and last make the whole monogram small enough to fit on or over the pocket on a knit shirt or a hat. Where should I send the bill for all this valuable advice? Wouldn't surprise me if someone made a ball cap the shape of an Elio and tried to where it. LOL

Sorry but not to short. Well I did get it off Elio's site since my Elio wasn't available to measure. lol
Curve in cap and photo did that.
As for the green, well different strokes for different folks. Just having fun with different designs.
As for shirt pocket, got one for that.

Send bill to .....PO BOX BR 509......lol
I pay on the 10th.

I must say you handled the criticism extremely well. And yes is all in fun and it's fun to experiment. That said less is more and something about the size of the little crocodile on the Izod Lacoste shirt speaks volumes. Both hat and shirt. Cardinal sin to make two different logos. leads to poor Product recognition.

Since I've did this for 22 years the logo on your shirt sample is about 1.5 inches to low.
On a simple logo it never goes even or (in your case) below the placket.

Oh, let a lady wear that shirt and guess where the gator will be, that's right, on the.........

Looks like I need to send you a bill. :)
