Decal data base needed
The Bike Exchange got a Gary fisher Hoo Koo Ekoo donated the other day and They asked if I could repaint it.
If I am going to all that trouble I thought I should put decals on it but I can't find a source.
I think it would be a good idea to compile a data base for decal suppliers, especially since Vello Cals is now out of business. I'll start with a few . I especially want to find someone who has decals for vintage mtn bikes.

I started posting some of my decal logo knockoffs in 2011 and have been slowly adding to the post as I go along. The decals I have posted (zandoval) are my own generated copies so they are not exact but from a distance will do. These decals are not for a Wall Hanger but will do for ridding long, hard, and dirty...

Note: Over the past 12 years simple personal computer image programs have improved. You will notice my first posts were quite crude. For color images I still think the vinyl bumper sticker format is best. If going monochrome on a light colored surface then I would use the Helicopter Tape method. If going for high quality decal appliques then certainly spend the money and get real decals. VeloCals is sorely missed...
