Who would be interested in misc. Android stickers?

I have access to a sticker machine and Im going to know around a few android sticker designs. I was wondering if anyone here would be interested before the stickers are made?
All different android styles, sizes from 1.75,3, 4, 6 and 10 inches. Prices will vary but shouldn't be more than 7-8 bucks MAX the smaller ones wont be near that, but possibly around 3-4 bucks. the more you buy the cheaper.
Again mainly checking on interest here. I have done deals in the past with 4-5 members and all went well. I have great 100% ebay feedback and I am paypal verified.
I would take payment thru paypal. If you're going to send it via paypal then add the 4% fee to the final cost. OR you can pay via paypal using their gift option ( it send money fee free! ) then do not add the 4%.

i loveee pics!

haha I havent done them yet. but i may just do them. Im sure people will pick them up here and there.

I'm interested. Are we talking like cheapo ones or badass super stickers?

Die cuts. Like basic ones but I mean its an android how much more badass can it get? haha. I mean I have like different ones in mind. ANd things Ive seen off line. When I get some I'll report back I will only have a few of each style.

I meant like the cheap ones that are like paper or badass like a bumper sticker.

This is important, because I have dollars and you have ideas. You might have some of my dollars if your answer to this is correct.

Its going to be on 10year vinyl. Its going to be android figures ( if you will ) They are going to be diecut stickers.

I would be interested for one to stick on the back of my phone. I have an Otterbox Commuter case, so it's pretty bland by itself. Of course, I'd probably buy 3 or more so I have replacements for when one wore out. I might stick one on my car as well...

I'm probably going to catch flak for mentioning "the enemy" but a nice, tasteful apple-esque sticker for my car would be sweet!

i thought that i had posted in here already, but anyways, let me know when i can buy some. =]

I would not mind rocking one on my motorcycle helmet! Put me down for some.

FLAK!!!! Maybe if It had a Android pissing on it!

Too bad this is illegal. I highly doubt that you have received the proper permissions to be reproducing the android name or logo in any way. Get caught doing this and it will cost you dearly.

Jerk.

I might be wrong (it happens!) but I don't think the Android droid is an official logo. I have seen the dolls all over and don't recall any flack.
He can always ask permission too..

it is an official logo but can be distributed as "free" but with a donation. basically selling it without officially selling it. nice little loop hole. =]

I stand corrected. But yes nice little loop hole!

For the record, I'm not trying to be a jerk. I own a graphics company myself and own several of these machines. I personally know a fellow who was selling copyrighted logos as decals online, and one of the copyright owners actually came forward to set an example of this guy and sued him for hundreds of thousands of dollars, and won.
Do as you wish, just giving you warning that just because others get away with this, doesn't mean you will do the same.

It's legal so long as you follow the rules of the creative commons:

They explicitly give you permission to use and modify the android robot, provided you give them proper attribution, as is the terms of the creative commons license.

OCD and the GN... 3 weeks on...

Ok... Let me just throw it out there... Your GN is not "Perfect". It is not "Flawless". It's a unique piece of hardware that came off a mass production line. It is not identical to any other GN if you spend enough time examining it
In all fairness, I got my GN 3 weeks ago on Nov 25th. I moaned about a light (barely noticeable) horizontal band across the screen and only noticeable on very low light when scrolling.
3 week ons... I'm at peace. More and more threads (about the screen, dust particles, build quality etc) appear every day that confirm, the GN is not a hand made and individually scrutinized piece of swiss machinery. Nope. It was not manufactured in a clean room in the Jet propulsion Lab by NASA engineers in funny suits. It's a phone. Wait wait... don't go yet. I'm nearly done. The point is... After a week or so of bemoaning that it was perfect, I finally just started to use it, and...ENJOY it. Now after 3 weeks use, I could not be happier with it. Battery seems to have improved as time went on (or perhaps Im not starting at the screen so much anymore!) and I now treat the phone like a phone. A piece of expendable tech that I'll probably use for 12-18months.
Should it be 100% flawless? Perfect? Clean room hand built? for 700dollars? No. That money pays for the research and the technology in the phone. It doesn't stretch so far to include sapphire crystal display or hand assembly and post packing scrutiny by an OCD swiss guy with a loupe.
God damn it people, don't let a speck of dust, or a some slight variation in colour bands on the screen ruin your experience of a super device. If its flawed like a line of dead pixels, yes, return it, but if your really just unhappy because its not flawless, well don't be.. because nobodies GN is flawless. Look at it long enough and you'll find something you can pick at... Or you could jsut use the phone and marvel in its awesomeness and stop looking for a bit of dust you can only see when you get into the closet at night with a loupe, night vision googles, and an infrared lamp. Enjoy it

exactly why i'm just going to use the phone and not "look" for issues.

Oh my god, really? You write an absurdly too-long rant, that uses 5 too many smiley faces, telling us we should chill out over defections on our phones? You are telling us to not scrutinize our phones so much. Well don't scrutinize our posts so much, and don't tell us the proper way to go about enjoying our phones.
What a wiener.

If you have nothing to contribute, well you know..
There are way too many threads about nitpicking at every single little detail. I'm not saying the phones don't have issues, but the OP is right. There are way too many threads about such minor details where people expect the phone to be some amazing device as if God himself had created it. It's not. It's a phone.
I think part of the problem is a lot of people are buying it off contract and thus feel that since they are paying so much the phone should be devoid of any and all slight defects.

It's not just that people are buying it off contract. This happens with pretty much every phone. Every time a phone is released there are always threads where people say things like "What problems should I look for?" My thing is, if you have to seek out the "problems" then they aren't problems. And only on forums like xda do people obsess over the most minor "defects". The average consumer doesn't return a phone 3 or 4 times because if they go into a pitch black room and turn the brightness down all the way and then look at an all black screen they see some sort of imperfection. This is the type of unreasonable expectation of pure perfection that you will only find in these online communities. People are flat out ridiculous in how they overreact to the slightest "issue" they perceive themselves to have on their devices. To the average person they can use the exact same phone with the exact same "issue" and not have a single problem.

hahaha good one liquid, nailed him
what a twitter feed! sleeping material...

I agree with the OP. We should all be so lucky that the biggest problem we have is the slight imperfections on the screen. I've noticed the banding (streaks) on the display a few times already but only because it's been discussed ad nauseum. Do I like it? Not really. Do I need to obsess over it and return 3 different units for the same issue only to realize, that's just the way it is. It's not perfect but it's also not worth the amount of complaining that's been going on here. 36 hours in and I am pretty well pleased with it! The screen is gorgeous!
BUT, if Samsung is reading this, my message is this: What's your problem?!? Why isn't this thing perfect?!? I paid too much! I want signal from inside of a lead box! Work harder!

I whole heartedly and completely agree with you.

Interesting game

http://windowsphoneawesomeness.wordpress.com/2012/04/06/xbox-games-got-expensive/

well I think its the developer's choice to put the price and MP cannot challenge it. If you think its just too expensive, just don't buy it. as simple as that.

And it has got a review too in chinese which says "Garbage" LOL
I have a feeling its a mistake and they will fix it once they notice it. Or maybe he is to desperate

Lol, did u guys read the description? Unlimited version, the paid version has smiley faces. I think it's totally a joke

What sort of developer in his right mind would charge for a non-Xbox game - £218.99?
It's not even £2.99 !!

When Windows Phone first came out there was an app call "Im rich" for $999.99

Same with the iphone. It did nothing and a few people actually bought it. Then they complained that they bought it.

I feel so too! Paying that much money even on internet makes me a little skeptical let alone on a phone's marketplace!
Sad thing is unlike Android (which is full of malwares) we can't report such apps or atleast flag them. It might help if users could flag such apps for re-review by the marketplace team, might keep the place clearner.

Can anyone talk me out of...

..buying the Galaxy S3, and instead waiting for the next Nexus?
I'm sick of waiting for a new hardware qwerty to come out (will it ever?) and my Vision is really starting to show it's age, looks and performance-wise.
So I need a new phone, like yesterday. The S3 is begging me to buy it. Can you convince me otherwise?

Sure. Just send me the $ you'd spend on the GS3 and you can't buy it. Done deal.

Have you looked into the HTC Doubleshot?
It's a great qwerty phone that I've been using for the past few months to replace my old G2
And we've been getting a good amount of dev action recently too. Check out the threads

Not available in the UK :-(

You're sick of waiting. Your Vision is starting to suck. Get the best phone right now, rather than waiting. Waiting is generally silly when it comes to tech. Sorry to not be talking you out of the S3, but it's going to blow your G2/Vision away, even without the QWERTY..
I'm thinking of doing the same, because it seems that we won't get a decent, customizable phone with a hardware keyboard in the foreseeable future..

For what it's worth, if Google goes with Samsung the next Nexus will prob be a slightly tweaked GSIII.
Don't keep looking toward the horizon, find a phone you like now (or the near future) and get it. Something better is ALWAYS coming.

I agree with Nospin pretty much. Keep your G2 for now. There aren't many phones right now that are very much comparable IMO. I've got ICS running on mine and its lightening fast. Every time I go to check out the new phones I can't help but think mine is slightly better of just as good. So why spend the money on something new when you don't need it? Just keep flashing away until you find something that fits you, but again IMO, be like me and go with Adromadus Audacity...its a great ROM.

well I was talking about the looking toward the horizon part. Better to just stick with the G2 for now as there are all of these "better phones" out now. Wait it out until something REALLY good catches your eye, for now the G2 does what all of the new phones do if not more.

Buy one off eBay. Or I'm willing to sell you my spare if you don't mind paying shipping costs (PM me)
EDIT: if there are any devs that would like to get into this device, please PM me. I can sort you with a device for a lot less than what you normally would pay, possibly even free
This is NOT an advertisement. Just trying to stimulate development for our device

If it won't work with google wallet it seems like a waste to me.

Wait, what? You have to use their 1GB SD? Screw that... Not given up my 32GB for this.
Just wait til I get a phone with Google Wallet I guess. Even then, does anyone REALLY need this?

On my ns4g, I was super excited to use google wallet. First time trying it at Dairy Queen, didn't work, and had no cash on me. It was then I realized that carrying real money makes more sense than relying on a phone.

Just how we used to attach things to Palm/PalmOne devices back in the day. I mean you know Apple didn't actually invent the smart phone or anything. Though more PDA and less Treo but there were devices for Wifi, GPS, Camera's etc all using SDIO. I had not seen it used for NFC but all I was commenting on was the technology behind it is old school.

this is for payments only and u can not use Android beam. Also I believe u have to pay a monthly fee. this is not what u think it is.
