i'm not a huge fan of rfid.. but a lot of the apartment complexes/subdevelopments down here use barcodes as your "in" to the gated community. it scans it on your rear-most driver's side window and as you're pulling in, it lifts the gate for you (as does orlando int'l). while i've secretly wanted my own barcode for aesthetic reasons, i don't think i'd want one like that. i like the first one, though. and yes, sabretooth has a thread on QR codes.

def. it's in my passport, on my windshield (two - one for the gated community, another for toll roads), was in my lift tickets, work ID, on my debit card... they're everywhere.. at least the barcodes are a bit more subtle, yet distinguishable

There is a worldwide Yaris club - it's called Micro Image.

Just add numbers.

lol I wasn't even talking about barcodes in particular.. I'm just saying for me, having pictures of my stereo and my car, and then posting my location on the internet, and then having stickers of any kind, but unique stickers in particular would make me a little uneasy... carry on though

So did this get dropped or are we doing something. I like the idea of knowing that someone I pass on the road is part of Yarisworld and who they are.

I like the userid request as you know who you are seeing, nobody is going to remember 100+ numbers and who they are, a userid is easier. With that said, how about the Yarisworld then your UserID below it a tad smaller? We each chose our userids for a reason.

Just my 2 cents.

I'll get back to working on it tomorrow

In the meantime, feedback on the one I already put up on the first page? It might help me send this concept in the right direction

^ I like it. Maybe around the size of the brake light and we can put them just below it (some may put it over the brake light). This will keep everything centered and looking good.
