I was watching the Moto GP race the other night when i see this sponser sign on main straight.



Now don't get me wrong. I'm not that much of a dirty minded individual or am I? :icon_rolleyes:

What does the A Style symbol look like to you guys?

By the way it was a great ride by Casey Stoner  ;)

That's a subliminal right thar.

There is actually an interesting amount of... unusualness to be found in some of the more famous company logos.

For example... NASA's logo


Note the Chevron.

China Space Agency


Canadian Space Agency


UK Space Agency


All showing Chevrons.

Notice how the A in A-Style is somewhat chevron-esq. The View uses a large V (chevron). Virgin. The VW logo is three chevrons.

Columbia Clothing have a sideways square. So does Microsoft. Exxon is a Double X - or - a Double Cross (Cross of Lorraine) - think of the Finger men in V for Vendetta



Iranian Space Agency logo


Obama Missle Defense Logo (crescent moon & star and chevron)


Islam logo


Interesting...

So Mister, you're referring to the chevrons? because in the A-Style logo I see a couple doing something that doesn't have to do with chevrons lol

Sorry for miscommunicating...

The A-Style is "that a subliminal right thar" meaning... Doggy.

The A also happens to be a Chevron.

Dell & Enron - Same E


The View


Lockheed Martin - double chevron


Verizon


Interesting.

My god, it's a conspiracy!

What is the significance of a chevron?  Help me out here.
On those days when life is a little too much and nothing seems to be going right, I pause for a moment to ponder the wise last words of my grandfather:  "I wonder where the mother bear is?"

Now why is it that the first "A-Style" only has one dot? while the other three have two?

so I was browsing the net on meaning of chevrons and what an article. http://dedroidify.blogspot.com/2008/01/language-subliminal-symbolism.html

I think I want some of his crack!

For me my first interpretation of chevrons usually means rank or importance. Maybe that is what they are trying to convey :dunno_black:
