QR CODE

This is a more direct and better link to the Javelin promotion video, so if you want to print and put on your Jowett or any publication or posters, please do so and impress the younger generations!

Thanks for the marketing Jack!

This is a video designed for our Javelin really, but it is fairly easy to make something similar for almost any car that you have some footage or photos of.

You can use Windows programs that come as standard on most machines to edit footage and get the subtitles to line up, and then upload to Youtube to make it visible.

Once your video is online, and somewhere you can link to, use a QR Code Generator and it creates the image in Keith's link.

Still confused? Get your smartphone, tablet or similar device, and download a QR Code reader. Point it at the square, and let it work its magic. This is a fairly common technology now, so should be more familiar to the younger generation that we are keen to engage with.

Jack.

Now this could be very handy, as most people these days do have smart phone, me not included, and when your out and about on a run or show or out in general in your car, you could have one of these little code squares displayed in your window for people to link up and look up to find out more. A bit more advanced than a window sticker. What is the website you used to generate the code?

Hi Alan,

If you chuck in the URL to this site, it gives you a code that you can either download or print http://www.qrstuff.com/

I also discovered this site, which is better if you are planning to blow the QR code up to a large size (better resolution for faster phone scanning) http://goqr.me/

I did have a thought that an ideal way to display this would be to print them onto large sticky labels, which are then stuck onto some magnetic L plates - easy to display, easy to remove when required, secure and waterproof for car shows and out and about where you might be stopped long enough for someone to scan it.

It occurred to me that we could use these when I realised that at a lot of shows people took photos of cars they liked using their phones.
