So, my vote would be to use the K.I.S.S. method and go with "big and round and coloful". Yes? No? Maybe?Ted

Black? Red or Black would stand out against the white. (Dots a good idea dere, Dave)

One more thought - make sure you have two. I don't like how the mentor sticker looks, so once I've got it, I flip over my name tag. If you have two dots, you can put one on each side & then if you flip you'll still be dotted I'll try to find a little red hummingbird to put on mine too... hmmm... maybe a round green dot with a bright red hummingbird. La la la....

Isn't a big colored dot enough? Hhmmmm? so smack me at the Rally... Ted
