Anandtech.com - The Computer Case Bezel -Anand Please Read

[videotips]

I think most of us in this forum build our own systems and dont have a bezel(the square on your computer case where a company sticks there logo) to put on our case.
I think Anand should look into getting some nice color "Anandtech.com" case bezels made.. they are cheap in mass quantity. This is a great marketing tool, how could we forget about Anandtech if you see it on your computer case everyday?
I think we should just have a send a self addressed STAMPED envelope to Anand and he could send back a bezel to us! Heck, I'd even pay a dollar for one.
What does everyone think?
Come on Anand, go for it!

He has a good point. Team Anandtech decals would be very cool.

Interesting idea, anyone have a clue as to where we could get these things made?

Take care,
Anand

Ask Kyle at HardOCP or the folks at Ars -- both have their own badges from what I remember.

Excellent marketing idea!

I know as with most promotions, the manufacturing company will often do a 'trade' - promotional item in exchange for advertising on anandtech.com.

To find such a company, do an Internet search. Or advertise on your own home page. Or let someone recommend a company to you. The logo/design needs to be first class work to go on everyone's case.

I would stick one on my case so fast...I'm in!

http://www.overclockersbadges.com/index.shtml sells badges for HardOCP and Ars. I'd definitely stick an Anandtech badge on my computer.

[Burn]

Oh ya! That would be sweet!!

I would stick an Anandtech badge on my case so fast that well ummm, whatever... I have a stupid "Powered by Asus" badge there right now and I need a replacement. I have almost ordered an Ars badge! Anand, SAVE ME!!!

 

[Budman]

I would definately buy an Anandtech sticker to put on my PC .

 

[Budman]

I want AnandTech undies.

 

[Adul]

I would love to have a Anandtech badge for my PC. I would even pay for it has well. Please anand, do it!

 

[Imaginer]

<< I want AnandTech undies. >>



I want the whole china and tea set!!!

 

[odog]

yes badges would be very cool(and i'll get one for sure).... but tshirts!. far better IMHO!

Excellent idea...couple suggestions:

Make it a contest. Give people the specs to work within (say 100x100 gif or something), &amp; let them submit designs.

Give a prize for the contest (doh!). Make it something cool, like a choice between a GeForce2 &amp; a Voodoo5 5500.

Then charge for the badges. You'll recoup the costs of the video card in no time, plus make a little money off them.

I know I'd buy one.

Hmmm....long time ago, we asked for T-Shirts, etc....those never materialized...I'b by a T-Sirt or Sweat Shirt or 'Badge' for the comp in a minute!

 

[Viper GTS]

A sweatshirt would be cool...So would a shirt...

Anybody here run a silk-screening shop?

[Prodigy^]

hmmm cool idea @ bezel....i just have a stupid one that says

Zitech
Pentium III
750 MHz

I could certainly live without that i guess i could just pop it off with a knife

 

[NaughtyusMaximus]

Whatever the badge is, it should have some transparencies on it, and not be the regular square design if possible (curved and such in a fashionable way that still fits within the dimensions).

I might try to design one myself, but I'm no graphic artist.

 

[HannibalX]

I already have &quot;AnandTech.Com&quot; tattoed to my ass, why would I want a badge?

 

[Tominator]

Trinitron...So you are telling us you go around with your butt showing?....

 

[Viper GTS]

Nah, he just shows it to his buddies.

I, for one, have no desire to see it.
