RandyT needs your ideas! Spinner artwork opportunity

This was posted over in the Main forum but wanted to direct you guys to it.

Let the mockups begin... :cheers:

This idea has been kicking around awhile, and we just got the equipment and materials in to do it properly.  I'm pleased with the result, so I had to show it off 

This is a variation of the TokenTop knob designed for the TurboTwist2 Spinner.  It has all the same features (Accu-Twist, solid stainless construction, etc.) but instead of the inlaid token, it features a translucent graphic which captures the light reflected from the underlying spun metallic surface of the knob.  The image is heat and pressure bonded into the surface of the outdoor grade vinyl substrate, and is therefore very durable and scratch / moisture / UV resistant.

The "Web Beast" design was sent to me quite some while ago by PoDunkMoFo and is just one of several designs that are planned.  I'd like to offer a good selection of designs, so I'm looking for suggestions on what type of artwork you would like to see on a spinner knob.

I'd also like to mention to any control panel manufacturers out there that we'd be happy to provide a custom version (company logos, etc) for small quantities of these at no extra charge.

Thanks for taking the time to check it out and I look forward to hearing any comments.

RandyT
