AAC: what (if anything) have you decided on? We need to know!

I'm still trying to decide, but I'm leaning heavily towards LTRA-TEC

Jasper emailed me and asked for pics when I get it done LOL

I'm such a nerd!

Well, I prefer Magda's suggestion of SO 27. True, it's very much an in-joke, but aren't they all?

There are two problems with "LTRA-TEC". One being that it looks like Ultra-Tec, as dave pointed out, and the other being that it sounds like some kind of font or graphic design company. Brings to mind Letraset. letratec.com, in fact, belongs to an Argentinian graphic design firm. I think even Fforde fans might not parse it as Litera-Tec.

I had worried about that too...

if only we could use 8 spaces and no dashes!

I wonder if TH NEXT would work... but if all else fails, there's always NEXTIAN

iono, i still think LTRA-TEC would work. First thing that would spring to mind for me, anyway.

I like NEXTIAN I think...

But what do I know, I don't even *own* a car...

There's a hole in my creativity bucket and it's all leaked out.

Well, the plates have been ordered!

I chose....(drum roll please!)........




NEXTIAN


ta-daaaaa!

They should ship within 4 weeks. But our DMV is very efficient about this kind of thing, so it could be sooner...YAY!

as soon as I get them, I will share pics <goofy grin>

I was just coming on the Fforum to ask what you had decided on - looking forward to piccies!

good choice!
:-)

:(

Dave, the more I looked at LTRA-TEC, the more I thought it would be confusing...

I left the pics I did up on the screen, walked away and came back for a fresh view and it really seemed more like ULTRA TEC, so....

But thanks to all for the help and suggestions...it was GREATLY appreciated, even if it did make choosing even that much more difficult LOL

So have you talked your husband into letting you paint the van with Escher lizards as well? That would leave any Fforde Ffan in no doubt as to the meaning of the plates.

hehehe I WISH!...even though it's my vehicle he had to draw the line somewhere...

although, I did do something a wee bit sneaky today...

I designed and ordered a custom license plate frame.

You could always stick a lizard to the back window.

What's a custom license plate frame like? Yours specifically, obviously. You'll have to forgive me if that seems like an obvious question - I'm young and English.

(That's my excuse for a lot of things.)

I'm only jesting. NEXTIAN works too.

But we need pics on the car when it arrives!

there will be pics of course!

and Sarah B, I'm keeping the design under wraps because I ordered a few extra...one for me, one for Jasper, one for Jon (cuz he's a good bloke and we're partners in crime) and one to give away in an upcoming contest in WN...more details on that later!

muhahaahah!

Just a thought: presumably Jasper didn't put off the closing date for Nextian Brain as he said he might, did he?
