If we had an awareness color, what would it be?

[Spence]

Black & White are graphically almost necessities ... either represent space, are useful for lettering and are cheap to print.

Select a 3rd color that pops (something bold) and use is sparingly.

Think of a white wall with 99 black dots and 1 that's red (or green or blue or turqoise). Which one is your eye naturally drawn to?

Thanks for you re-considering your first idea! Truly open minds are rare. But keep in mind that your idea belongs to you. Please yourself or you're going to get awfully sick of working with it.

I like the idea someone had a few pages back about a sky blue color. It's clean. It's fresh air. It's the opposite of smoke.

How bout a ribbon made of vapor?

- slip

 

[Drozd]

that was my point...just about every single color and color combination has about 50 billion causes as far as awareness colors and ribbons go...yes even clear...cripes even zombies have an awareness ribbon and month..

the tiny little e-cig lapel pin would be cool though

I had another thought. Anyone else rapidly collecting those little "priority mail" boxes? I have those little devils all over the place and started wondering what, if anything, we could do in a positive (either environmental, statement making, or other) way to put these to good use. I would imagine that collectively we have thousands by now - and based on our growing numbers, and current users' ordering habits that number of "little boxes" is growing daily. It'd be cool to do something really creative and Pro-Health and/ or Pro-Environment with them. Any ideas?

I agree with no ribbons. I would sure go for the lapel pins. I would buy one.... or a hundred.

I haven't seen it suggested, so I will go for it...

BROWN

Yes, the color of smoked-tarred lungs.
Or poop, I guess.

First thing to come to mind for me was silver...and then blue...then I read through all the other posts and I still think of silver. Can't really justify it, other than it's shiny, draws attention and I like it Sorry, wish I had a better argument in support of my choice

I've lived in the south all my life and I don't think anyone young or old is going to automatically associate the colors blue and gray with the confederate states of america. Perhaps if you used a stars and bars confederate flag somewhere yes but I don't think that's being suggested.

I am so tired of political correctness and you might as well throw in revisionist apologist history as well. Red, white and blue would offend some people. Get over it. Pick some colors - blue and gold maybe - oops the Boy Scouts already use that.

The confederate blue/gray thing sounds good too, I'm with Irwink on the pc business...I highly doubt that people would make some kind of insinuation that vapers are all confederate supporters or something, and if they do, they should really relax their sphincter. jm

So you like shiny things then?
Were you a blonde in a previous life?

 

[DaliMama]

Can't say I was ever blonde...except for one summer when I had a fight with a bottle of sun-in and I lost. Lol, and yes I do like shiny things...generally I am attracted to brass and lead nickel plated has to be a favorite too!
