Question New Topic/Thread Suggestion - Listing by State

I was wondering if there was a way to create a sort of "Skoolie index" that we could have a state-by-state listing of members/Skoolies.

I'd love to know who else is from Massachusetts on here, and if there are any other Skoolies from MA on here. (Or Vermont, NH, RI, etc. etc.)

I'd love a basic "directory", where everyone could (if they wanted to) list the following information :

Member Name
State
Bus Name
Link to Conversion Thread
Link to Picture Gallery

Just something to get an idea of who might be nearby, or who's in our general area and building, or thinking of building a skoolie.

It would take a bit to set up, but a sub-forum with a post for each state, then people can just comment in the appropriate state.

It is cheaper to produce in bulk but it would probably cost more in shipping to send one sticker?
Get a bottle of craft paint and a small brush and paint it on there after your final paint is done.
Of course ask the admin.for permission which to me you just did?
But a little craft paint a little brush and a little clear enamel will let everyone choose how,where and what stylus everyone/you want.
Sorry admin? Probably spoke out of turn again?
If you do figure out stickers I would like 4. One for my work truck,one for the family car,one for the house/bus and one as a spare.

I can make them, or have them made.
Free + 50 cents shipping? If maybe a dozen want some then even better.

How about $1.50 each including shipping, I would take two. Something like the site header would be nice, with permission of course.

Permission... I forgot about that.
Maybe we should just do it on the sly so that we don't have to actually pay!

It can be used to make stickers for members so long as sales cover expenses only. In the coming year we are hoping to have stickers and t-shirts available but are not yet ready so if you want to do a short run of them that's great
