Rather than tell you some of the obvious themes to do for this bar, it would be easier to type a search in google for irish bar ideas. I just did and the typical leprachaun and celtic lettering were present on them. Post some starter ideas for us to work from. Good Luck

hey Dave, Thanks for the reply, maybe I didn't explain myself too well. I'm after some advice on theme to to refine my design to fit the image that I'm trying to create. All Irish theme style bars that I have been able to source have been classic styled where as I'm trying to come up with a little more contempory style, sort of Belfast 2002ad meets Mike Jackson ( hope you don't take offence in using your name , O Great one, LOL ) Really I feel as if I have no direction in my idea's, I want to try & get out of that stereotypical design idea whilst still retaining the "Irishness" Gotta get back to it , try & Post later Regards

I've got a cute little idea going in my head right now. How are you at drawing? I was thinking it could be kind of neat to have a little leprachaun (sp?) holding a huge beer. Or maybe several little ones tipping one down helping another one take a sip.
Anyway ... the slogan catch phrase could be something like ... "biggest brews this side of town" ... hmmmm... hokeY?? Well ... you asked!

Hmm Can't seem to find "Add Attachement" any tips any body

Martin, rather than explaining it, type in "posting pics" in search and you should come up with posts dealing with posting a pic on the board. You have to have a website, free or paid, to upload your pics to, and place them here.
