Bike Decals/Stickers
Not sure if this is the correct thread for this, but it seems fitting.
Anyone know where I can find bicycle decals/stickers? Specifically, country flags. I would like to put some on my LHT of the countries I have been too.
On Amazon, I can only seem to find quality 2x3 inch stickers, which are way too big. I've found another site that has them, but I really don't need 50 stickers (per sheet) so that seems like a waste.
Are there any websites etc that may have what I am looking for that don't require 'bulk' purchases?

I saw them too but don't need my name on the bike.
I wonder if they can do something custom (a string of flags, for instance) instead of the name. Hm, guess I will give them a shout and see what they can do.

VeloInk was quite quick on the response, including a preview of what I requested (within 24hrs of my first email) so it looks like they're the people to go with! Same price as there regular decals (about $10 for 4-to-a-sheet).

I don't own a printer and am not sure your regular printer can print on vinyl or whatever sticker material they use.
I also can't sew a patch onto my bike. The whole metal part...
I did do the sew-on patches on my camping backpack, but would rather not do the same to my panniers.

Get a Paint pen and write the places on the frame with it, like Heinz Stuke did with his Bike Friday
