I've been playing in Illustrator and Photoshop again. :)
This first decal was inspired by this article: On Sheep, Wolves, and Sheepdogs - Dave Grossman which is think is a MUST READ for every individual on the planet.

The 2nd one is an idea from one of our own:

Those are great decals.

Cool.
Have you been considering a second career in graphic design?
How about some SF themed bumber stickers?

Have ya messed around with the 3D tool options in illustrator? You could do some really cool designs and add some depth to the vector images.

I really haven't yet. Illustrator and Photoshop have MUCH more capabilities than I do at the moment.

Haha, tell me about it.
Wait until you want to branch off to animation or 3D modeling, that's when things get fun
If ya want i could link you to a very nice tutorial web page to aid you along in learning the in's and out's of those programs.

I actually have a full library of Linda.com stuff. 
Linda.com has some FANTASTIC tutorials.
My daughter and I do all the graphics work at our business and we are both self taught.

Believe it or not but that was actually one of the web sites i was going to link you to, probably one of the best.
Same here, was a great way to keep me out of trouble in my youth and a very nice stress reliever.
Well good luck on your next design, Looking forward to seeing it.

Ditto to both. Daughter also mentioned the same thing when he stopped by to speak to her BCT (before her 3rd trip I think) she said it was better than any "mindset" briefing any hallowed-halls staff puke could come up with - useable in life and she would firmly check the Sheepdog box.
Very professionally done stuff.
I have noticed that many of the QPs here have sigline material that would be worthy of display.

For the Airline
If you have a copy of "On Killing" you leave on the tray while trying to sleep, people tend to bother you less.
