Hi Design team,
We are preparing FUDCon 2014 Beijing[1], we need some materials for the showing/marketing. Sticker is needed to be gave away to all people attending the party.
Thanks.

We need to have generic stickers too such as these [1] and [2]
Maybe we can contact someone (maybe Jared or Tom Callaway on status of these). We had them for FUDCon Pune and they were great and in high demand.
For more event specific sticker design for FUDCon Beijing, I shall try once (once we have a good logo though)

Hi suchakra,
Generic stickers are good and necessary. We previously made some based on the design available on wiki. But the ones in your links are quite good. Can you contact the designers of them to get the designs (and optionally make them publicly available)?
I have pinged Tom. Meanwhile, It seems both the stickers mentioned above are taken from [1]. Its the first item and the second last item in the svg. The prints for the big Fedora sticker seem to be done on a simple laminated sheet and the 'Powered by Fedora' seems to be done on a thicker laminated synthetic sheet of silver color. Both have been pre cut-out. I have both stickers with me. If you want I can tell you the dimensions for print and make a separate sheet for selected stickers.

Though we have plenty of both, it's probably far cheaper to produce them on your own locally than to ship them there. The larger stickers are simply the Fedora logo with the sticker trimmed to the border. Let me know if you need that file (specifically the person who needs it). The metallic ones are known as case badges--think of the "Intel Inside" or Windows rectangular stickers you often see below the keyboard on a laptop. We have vendors for both in the US, but again, it is likely far cheaper to use vendors over there to have them made. I'd suggest contacting the APAC ambassadors team, as I can't imagine this is the first time they'd be producing either.
About sticker design, Ankur suggested team badges [1]. I think it may borrow some design from Fedora Badges [2].

I also have the idea of making stickers that are similar with license plate on the car. It can have the texts '京FUDCON' or '京FC2014', where 京 is the Chinese character for Beijing. Here is a picture of real license plate of Beijing [1], and a real sticker made by Javascript community [2].

suchakra mentioned some more designs and I'll take note here:
I need to check with local vendor to see if they can produce such kind of stickers? (Maybe foreign attendees can bring them along?)
Main sheet containing all SVGs sticker-sheet.svg
For lanyard - dark and blue backgrounds dark-lanyard.svg
I have attached a sticker sheet and the standard Fedora logo for lanyard (dark-lanyard). You can either use on on a black lanyard (just like in FUDCon KL) or a blue one like this : http://gallery.fabian-affolter.ch/albums/userpics/linuxday-swag.JPG
The "Powered by Fedora" would be good to print on a separate laminated sheet and (die-cut) The pink outlines on the stickers are the places from where they are supposed to be kiss-cut like this : http://d1a5prppuxcqlk.cloudfront.net/uploads/images/product/126/256/STICKER_FORMA_PERSONALIZADA_KISS_CUT.jpg
The big fedora stickers can be die-cut like this too : http://stickerobot.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/nbc-news-custom-diecut-stickers.jpg and http://www.chimerarevo.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/fedora_stickers.jpg
Thanks for your hard work! We have decided to produce stickers of existing generic design, your fudcon design, and the empty speech bubble design.
