I couldn't decide if using '4' in place of 'for' was the best thing ever, or the worst. So here are both versions (that belong on a Pepsi can in 1984):





Also, for unrelated and possibly negative bonus points, here is a picture of a hippy Zach Galifianakis in aluminum foil sunglasses, fellating an invisible giant who orgasms butterflies (sorry if this is a repost, but how could it possibly be):

I like it, but if you're going to use the numba 4, it should really be "4 LYFE!!!!!!!!!" or something.

gotta cast my vote for God Stewart's "strapped in, helmet on" design.

y'all can find some great retro freeware fonts here at DaFont:

clicky

came up with this:


leather cap, Cliff Huxtable sweater, sensible pair of loafers.

Thanks for the kind words everybody!

I did a new one that might be closer to Tom's image. Yes I am obsessed with Futura.
