Updated: New road.cc jersey design - have your say!

Tell us what you think, don't be shy...now we've added versions with your changes on too...

We've always said we wanted road.cc to be more like an online club than anything else. That means everyone getting involved, and the latest way to do that is to spout forth on the goodness or otherwise of our mockup of the new road.cc jersey. You have spoken and we have listened… sort of. So now we've added some new versions inspired by your suggestions. Vecchiojo's white piping gets an airing as does his favourite pantone pink and in a fashion mash-up fringe's retro look meets PK Ripper's white idea. We'll probably do some more later too, but for now tell us what you think of this lot.

Eagle-eyed members will recognise our crrent favourite  as a development of one of the potential Planet X-road.cc jerseys that we stuck on the site not so long ago. It didn't make it onto the back of the team, but it did get a lot of love, so we're thinking of making some for the season.Click on it for a closer look: there's still a bit of our favourite Argyle in there, of course.

Obviously you can't please all of the people all of the time but we'd like some feedback, so don't be backward in coming forward! And if you've got other designs that you think would work for a road.cc jersey, add them to you comments... ones you've found, ones you've loved or – even better – ones you've scrawled on the back of a fag packet and scanned in.

Your mum always told you that if you haven't got anything nice to say, it's better not to say anything. But hey, we're pretty tough skinned. So fire away*

*You don't have to say nasty things though. You can be nice too.

I was thinking along the same lines as Chris Deacon, £1? to charity for each purchase say.

I would like to see a little pink on it in the argyll pattern perhaps. Quite like the Giro etc but a full on pink is too much. Ibex did a nice jersey with a narrow pink band but for the ladies only  2

White can be difficult to clean - and can't imagine many of us being mistaken for the Sky boys if you go with black & blue though!

well, as it's all my suggestions in one jersey i have to go for 'kit6'  1 , it's different to all the "me too" solid-colour-with-a-band-across-the-middle jerseys out there and asymmetrical is very in this year darlings.

another colour, just for some very subtle detailing work would be nice though. a charity band would be a kind thought too

Like both Kit 6 and Kit 4 - the blue on Kit 4 is the best colour, but the design of Kit 6 just takes it I think...

Oh, and a charity band is a great idea too.

Looks bloody aweful.

If there are different colour options I would buy it but not in yucky blue and white!

Ok it's a cycle jersey but I find I order my stuff aboard as it looks so much better than the naff colours made over here.

How about a competition from the users?

I quite like the ones in the thumbnails with are blue on the left and pink on the right. But you can only click in between them... Embrace asymmetry!

Sorry guys didn't mean to sound harsh or mock you guys!

I find the design fine but light blue? how about using colours that are seen by drivers like red or yellow?

Ok I know not all colours are suited for everyone and I would still buy it as long as it is not Brown!

I will come up with a drawing you can mock/up soon! B)

What program will let me replace the colour blue with red or yellow?
